So far I have yet to see a show and tell or a sale thread for Chronology I'm kind of surprised since it looks like a decent product any theories on why or just bad timing :detective:
 
I think it is early, I know the first couple of days it took a while for them to start showing up on ebay. I am hoping to see some here as well.
 
I think the price point for the product might hurt it. With only pulling four cards a box might scare away some collectors. The only thing I like about it, is that the autos are hard signed and not stickers. I opened one today and I am mixed. My autos were both Canucks (H Sedin, Butcher).

Great looking cards but value per box is pretty poor. I'm not sure people want to post their box breaks when their autos are Jason Strudwick and Rob Brown...

True but there are collector's like myself that are looking for players who never had a certified auto card, I am still looking for Gregg Sheppard, Rick Smith, I thought more of them might of popped up on ebay but I only have seen one or two for each player and the ones I have seen are bids and I prefer the Buy-It-Now option. I think there will be more after this weekend and don't forget the National is still running, not sure how many hockey collectors go.
 
I opened two boxes today, nothing earth shattering but I was overall pleased. I'll take some photos tomorrow and post them in the show and tell. See if that gets the ball rolling for others to do the same.
 
I love the look of the product but I only collect graded cards so I'm just waiting for graded chronology to pop up on eBay.
 
I think it's a great product, but the price point makes it a risky break.

I've been tracking the Franchise History autos, and I've yet to see a single Group A posted on Ebay. Could mean they're going to be incredibly difficult to find, or it could be that not much has been busted.

If someone wants to do the math on those Group As, that would be great!
 
Really on the fence about this product, was excited about it until I saw some of the breaks. It seems like so many products are geared towards group breaks today.
 
It is very hit and miss, just like every other product, but the price point is considerably higher for 4 cards.
We had a Bobby Hull/10 and an Yzerman redemption/10 pulled at the store, so he was very happy LOL
 
I actually wouldnt be surprised if after a few months of breaking this product the price drops, the majority of packs are not worth the price, closer to $100 really. I’m grabbing the ones I want off eBay, and for 5$ each I hit almost all my chronology wants, I think lots of collectors are just waiting this product out on the secondary market
 
Just ripped a case. My best two hits were redemption. Masterpieces Sittler abd a Roy Lettermen #/10. Tempted to rip the time capsules, but will likely flip them.

I've watched a couple live breaks and viewed some of the results posted here and this product reminds me of any of the mid 90's Upper Deck/Be A Player one auto per pack sets.

Upper Deck could do a set featuring harder to find autographs of yesterdays average players for a much cheaper price point and it would probably sell well because people want to pickup autographs of those players.
 
When the ratio is 1:1.5 packs any idea how many autos the player would actually sign??

I posted my numbers in another Chronology thread - I've estimated those Group G autos at about 195 each. I'm sure some signed more and others less than that, but I think it's a decent estimate.

If you're patient, I'm guessing you'll be able to pick up most of these for a few dollars soon enough.
 
Watched several case breaks and thought this is the WORST product Upper Deck has ever put out!

Then like a fool, when I stopped by the local there were 8 boxes just sitting there. Of course I thought I could beat the odds.

Didn't my break was basically a waste. I did sell a Jean Letterman for $40.00 but the other cards might bring $20.00 total

Like I said, for my two cents or was it $300 plus dollars as waste.
