Connor McDavid Tim Horton's Draft Cards are out...

[Triple B]

Man, for the prices people were paying for these things, I would have hoped for an autograph...UD NEVER promised that but the card itself blends in very well with the rest of the set.

Maybe I am in the minority but I was expecting more.

WAAAY more. It's a base card.

 

[quincy]

Wow. That's a lot of money for a XRC.

 

[99goals]

Is this the record for most expensive modern day issue base lol.

 

[JR]

Gah, is my set now incomplete without it??

 

[g-force]

No, it's not numbered as part of the set but SP-1.

 

[S4Kh4r0v]

Oh wow, I almost feel bad for the buyer of my copy now...

 

[30ranfordfan]

It was a cool idea.... but for $500+ ??? No Chance. I'd be fuming if I bought one.

 

[Mauri]

No, it's not numbered as part of the set but SP-1.

So it is not an RC either, but just an insert?

 

[geschrocks33]

$500 for a base card with #1 pick on it. What a time to be alive.

 

[SNobles]

lol, and it is a pick of him at the draft! I thought they might have been waiting for him to play to get an action shot.

That is painful.

 

[cassijon]

LOL at the buyers who actually chased this card

 

[creasecollector]

Ugh... now that is brutal. I feel bad for the buyers.

 

[Triple B]

It's funny though, COLLECTORS were the ones that drove the pricetag. UD never promised anything more than a card with the #1 Pick on the front. That's EXACTLY what they delivered. That's a $40 anywhere else...

 

[Eminem313]

I think most people thought it was be autoed

 

[numbern9ne]

...a fool and their money

 

[MattDMC]

So what was the point of making it a redemption then? I figured it was because their was either going to be an auto on it or they were waiting for him to play to get an in action shot from a an actual game but if its just a card with a picture from the draft then what was the wait for with it being a redemption?

The UD License rules states they can't produce a card of a player until they have played in an NHL game... Didn't this set release in late September before the season started?
