Hey guys rip carnage here is my review and critisisim's. Call me a whiner or what not but I spent huge money on these and I have every right to say what I will!!

Ok first off I started at mojo's in North Van with a 3 box break 3 there, 3 to go. Not bad at all hit Ballard 2 color patch (blech) and Kopitar auto future watch and a Kopitar Patch one color purple with seam, best auto Chirography Rick NAsh #/75. I am impressed by how loaded these boxes are, Derek deman13 pulled from his three boxes a Malkie/Mario dual auto SOTT SP and a wuad SOTT Kipper/Phaneuf/Iggy/Tanguay, good job Derek!!

I picked up a case and two boxes from the wholesalers and cracked two on the ferry ride home got zippo nada zilch for any hits. One box had four autos the other had 3.

Get home and do a late night case break, so let me critique it firs before I tell you my breaks.

1) Lack of hits, UD how can you absolutely load some cases and boxes but some aren't? What doi I mean? I had one box with five autos 3 with four and the rest had only 3 autos. Some cases I talked to guys got 2-3 patches per case, how many did I get? 1 and it was a redemption...whichc brings me to #2

2) Redemptions? Cmon UD i thought you guys were getting to cut down redemptions, well I got four outta this case. Please stop that!!

3) VERY PEEVED!! Quality control, ALL my future watch non autos in this case had been damaged, you guys know what i'm talking about the ol series 2 05-06 quafafalel (is that a word?) where the middle of the card is damaged on the top or bottom, it's been 2 years of damaged cards now can't you guys get a newer machine or fix it? Also all the parallels #/100 were minor chipping and poor corneres and edges. WE PAY HUGE MONEY PLEASE fix this!!

4) DOUBLES!! Future watch from last season have 90 rookies, this year its about 40+? anyhow I get three Capitals auto fw rc's Klepis, Fleischmann and FLeishcmann again if your gonna doulbe me up at least be Ovy. 2 Bekrhoels, 2 Oueletts.

5) Ok i'm done gripping overall UD you did good with this product loading it but I wasn't happy with the value of hits in my case in comparaision to others being cracked, some are jsut ridiculously loaded.

Case break hits only!!
Montoya, Getzlaf, HJoward, Stafford, Osullivan, Brule, Koivu, Ouelett x2 future watch autos
PAtch Kari (frickin') Rammo REDEMPTION!! DOH!!

Autos' nothing huge on the singles..

Triple Joey T, PAtrick MArleau, and Cheechoo Train #14/25 (Choo's Jersey #)!!

and the saving grace of the case............

RAY BOURQUE AND BOBBY ORR!!!


That was the case, so that said that's only 20 boxes right?

Well got bored today and went to the local card shop

Box 1
GARBAGE (pippy le pew!!)

Box 2
MORE GARBAGE 3 autos only

BOX 3

OK I'm fuming I lost big time total garbage autos anf futre watches, this box should make me madder!!! WHY?

WEll see Gripe #2 REDEMPTIONS!! Count them, not one not two but THREE FREAKING REDEMPTIONS IN THIS BOX!!! 5 autos total 2 future wathces non-significant I forgot who they are sitting at home on my desk i am at work now.

well am I really that mad ORR what? (note: below is not the order it was pulled)

Dual SOTT redemption:
Ryder/Latendresse Meh ok Latendressse is cool!!

SIngle SOTT redemption
Sidney Crosby (whoo hoo!!) :)

and YES Another redemption Triple:

Espo/Bourque/ and ORR again!!

NOt bad overall satisfied but if it weren't for the three auto cards the 23 boxes would have hurt!!

Comments appreciated and pics added.

i think you did great,would of been better if you got a couple of patches in the case but overall with the duals and triples and crosby you did okay,with the redemptions i think ud will be quicker and they now know who dosen't sign so you will more than likely get them.seen a lot worse
 
You got a triple SOTT with ORR on it and a Dual SOTT with Orr on it? Man, what are you complaining about!!?? Anyways, if either of those two cards are available, please PM me.

Thanks,
Rod
 
Not really complaining overall Rod I did very well but I was more unsatisifed with the case and how the balance of the hits can be better disributed from UD but my biggest gripe is the Redemptions and damaged cards. What am I going to do with the damaged rookies? Send them back to get 5 packs of complimentary? If Karvin reads this a PM would be nice if we can discuss this because everytime I don't get replacements on numbered cards and get 5 free packs which is furstrating. Karvin if your here i'd like to talk to you for the first time ever, i've kinda laid low on the boards lately but seriously I CRACK A huge amount of wax and have had lots of troubles with the UD company in whole and I hear your a great guy to talk too about it.

As for the scans I'll get them up later on tonight my scanner here at work ****s and i'm watching my poor nucks getting dismantled.
Thanks!
 
I'd be interested in the Crosby SOTT and the triple SOTT if they are available. Check my Case breaks for trade or PM prices. Cheers

Frank

PS. Great pulls!
 
Hey mofo, hows it goin'? I would say you did alright. Two Orrs, both multi-player autos, a nice Sharks trip, and a Crosby. Your patch really S*U*C*K*E*D, lol, but all in all, not so bad. Ravman and I are doing a case on Saturday night. I hope we dont C*R*A*P the bed on it, but oh well if we do;) Its a gamble. Sure would like a shot at the Orrs;) We will see what gets pulled from our case.


Doug.

PS. I hope those Cannots, I mean Canucks have t-times tommorow. hehe.
 
There's a Ramo collector here if your looking to move the redemption you dont want :) Let me know, I'd at least be curious as to what price you'd want!
