Opening 2 Boxes of 2020-21 Upper Deck Premier Hockey

[@CJC_95]

I just checked my email for past receipts. I paid only $219 USD for a box of Premier only two years ago. Utterly batshit insane the inflation in the hobby.

[@cardlandcollectibles4022]

Its not UD raising prices, its your wholesaler scamming u

THATS GROSS 🤮 FOR $1000+ upper deck is pricing things like formula 1 feels like

[@Spencer8242]

hahah exactly can’t believe people be wasting their money hoping to get a certain player like fuck buy it on ebay save the hundreds of dollars you would of wasted on cards you don’t want

[@Crosby-To-Malkin]

@@Spencer8242 I stopped buying boxes almost 10 years ago now but the only reason you're able to buy singles is because someone else is opening the pack someone has to do it

[@Demonrage2k]

Wow for 1200 bucks that's a pure rip off. For 100 dollars a card they should all be hits and no base. Thanks Zeeree, I was on the fence and this seals it.

[@eddief1064]

Agreed, Upper Deck is basically scamming the hobby but then again you can’t blame upper deck because the idiots keep buying it

[@28_Spokes]

Awesome $100 worth of cards for $1050, thanks, Upper Deck!

I have been collecting for 30 years and never met anyone with the knowledge you show when you can name the player just by their picture, Absolutely Flawless.

It's a great looking set, but the price point makes it a no for me.

[@rubikscub3]

Pretty much like everything else in this hobby

[@terrytitus6945]

Gotta be rich to get this!

[@BigH0mie89]

Damn, another upper deck product to stay away from. Nice break nonetheless. 👌

[@oofdah6738]

Fun break and really nice looking cards but the cost vs player selection is brutal. They need to guarantee at least 1 all star in these

[@terrytitus6945]

Disappointed there wasn't at least 1 all rookie type or Calder contender,way too many potential players!

[@matthewgraf9449]

Can't believe how pricy this hobby has got since 2 years ago, premier was like 350 max not almost double and still such dicey odds to pull heat

[@wrbrown35]

If people keep buying they'll keep raising the prices. It sucks but I pretty much just buy singles or the occasional retail blaster now.

[@yvr2yyz]

Any idea when UD's licence is up for renewal? It's been a slice but the hockey hobby needs a change.

[@yukoncorneliusthelegendhim9751]

ud got it renewed semi-recently lmao. fuckin sucks.

[@redred222]

well for some reason both the usa and canadian govs let only one company be licensed for each sport league, thats wrong the main reason why card prices are so high only three companies are basically making the cards, and right now the hobby is in a bubble going to be bad when it busts for all the people that put money into cards as an investment

[@yvr2yyz]

@@redred222 Well, that's a bummer. If so, I'm a bit surprised they'd support monopolies, particularly given the state of the hobby and where it's headed. Collecting has always been a gamble but, at least it was "affordable" fun. Sadly, no longer and, for me, much of the enjoyment of the chase is gone.

[@redred222]

@@yvr2yyz something they say its not because the leagues own there stuff and that they have the right to only have one company printing cards with nhl logo on it, its bull to me look back in the day we had 40 or 50 companies that made sports cards, now where down to topps, upperdeck, and panini and with a few small unlicensed products

[@chrisstarkovich1051]

These boxes are ridiculously priced now. Last year I was able to get boxes for $200 USD and when I went to my LCS today, they wanted $509 USD for this product. Even though the cards look amazing, this is an easy pass for me this year at the current price levels.

[@ShowHero]

The fact that this company is charging SIX HUNDRED DOLLARS for one pack of 6 cards is a joke.

[@dmk2131]

Direct price is around $150

[@alyfarhat91]

Yikes rough 2 boxes for $1200

[@samssportsshop]

I think Upper Deck should bring back the acetate cards in ice

[@dimetime35c]

What would be the best cards that have the jerseys and patches in them? Is it only upper deck or do other companies do those types of cards? I want to get into collecting cards like that. It just seems like hockey has a very limited amount of patches and jersey cards unlike the other sports like football and baseball.

[@Kratos70]

Lol Lately You Need To Rob A Bank To Buy Products From Upper Deck

[@johnpopowich745]

This sheet should be 99$ a box.

[@reasonablerage4370]

Upper deck still hasn't released four products, which have been in cue for months past their projected release date.

[@matthewgraf9449]

It's going to be hard to pay for spa, I'm guessing 4 to 5 k for a mast case priced at 250 a box

[@HawkEye3366]

Crazy price point on these.

[@theandrew1375]

I like Dellandrea a lot, think he might develop into a pretty good player. May need a change of scenery though from the Stars to do so though.

[@StrawHats94]

Great video, would rather just buy the card I'm looking for than paying that price lmao

[@jodymarty3179]

I have a question. I hate a ty dellandrea jersey tag( made in Canada tag) autograph rookie from game used. Its a 1 of 1. Does anyone have an idea what that could go for.

[@billyp8675]

Beautiful cards. Very clean. But oh watch out for that hostile train Choooo Chooooo.

[@billsmafiacards9420]

The mega patch was nice, Byram was the hit of the break, I ordered 1 box before the price went up another $150....going to break into it this weekend

[@RasmusEriksson87]

Canada and us store take out much more money on new boxes, this 20-21 premier cost only 400cad in sweden so your stores take out about 125cad more for a box then what a swedish store takes

[@csc102tjch]

Thanks for doing these I wish I could these prices are just too damn hostile now but at least I get to see them ripped thanks to you!

[@terrytitus6945]

Thick card stock,packs look like jumbo.Would have been nice to get Eichel autograph.A patch of Raymond,Seider,Zegras,Shesterkin,even Cal Peterson,Spencer Knight would have been nice.

[@Tokyosandblaster99]

I could give you a lighter and you couldn't light 1000 on fire quicker than that.

[@sportscastercanada]

It probably costs UD $10 for production and minimum wage factory workers.

[@ripzhockey]

Yeah, Im not sure about buying this...pretty expensive and am not sure it's really worth it. Been thinking about group breaks...but still doesn't seem very enticing. Thank you for sharing! Take care.

[@AdamSTL83]

This will probably get buried in the comments but can anyone give me a quick run down on current hockey card collecting? I've gotten caught up in these box opening videos and have been thinking about getting back into collecting next season but i'm having trouble finding good info on the web. So from what i'm gathering i'm guessing upper deck is the premier hockey card producer at the moment? Are the nicer sets like premier/the cup/masked men (don't think they even make that anymore) something that generally comes out towards the end of a season? Looking at upper deck's current website and all i'm seeing is base set (series 1 is what i'm referring to) purchase options. Are the nicer sets even purchasable or do you have to enter a lottery of some sort? Last one, i promise, is the current collector focus mostly on collecting rookie cards or is that just a zeeree thing? I've been surprised by the videos i've seen that the focus is mostly on collecting the newer players cards.......for myself i'd be chasing my older heroes like gretzky, brett hall, lemiuex, roy, hasek etc but i guess that isn't really profitable? Feel free to ignore my paragraph, just curious if anyone has a little insight. I guess i want to get some nicer cards but i'm not really worried about making money on this, would just like to build a fun collection

[@davidpierce2155]

The Cup is definitely the premium product for hockey cards but the last issue was 2019-2020 and while they usually release very late in the season it should have been out by now so it looks like we won’t get The Cup this year. What’s happening is that card companies are having massive supply chain issues (related to materials they use on the cards) so all the sets are getting super delayed or cancelled. Hopefully this will work out by next year and we get The Cup back bc next years edition is going to have a ton of sick rookies (unlike this year) - Zegras, Raymond, Knight, Seidel, Caufield, etc will all be coming. Without The Cup this year, Premier is prob the most premium card available rn followed by Ultimate I would say. In terms of purchasing, anyone can buy them, you can get them either online or at your local card shop (keep in mind there are some rules, like if you are in America you can’t buy from an online retailer in Canada). In the US Dave and Adam’s is prob the retailer that you can easily find these products. If you’re in Canada you prob shouldn’t have any issue finding boxes anywhere. And finally, yes, the primary focus in the hockey card collecting world (and sports in general) is rookies. In premium sets like this, specifically the RPA (rookie patch autos). Ofc sets have other autos or patches of current or former players that are short print and worth a lot (primarily Gretzky and McDavid are most sought after) but these inserts generally are few and far between and most people value the “true” rookie cards in any given year (that’s why in a box of 4-6 cards generally they guarantee at least one rookie but only a few are actually worth anything). Put it this way, for any given player, over their entire career, their most valuable card is probably going to be one of their rookie cards. Any card of theirs after then, unless some sort of super short print special card, is not going to be worth anything near their rookie card.

[@James_A_Bailey87]

I just bought one of those Staal/Svech mega jersey duos 😂

[@mrdboggs85]

$1300 you'll never see again lol. That was tough ☺️

[@christopherworks400]

Yeah my local shop got some and it is a little better priced then what you payed but still. Nope. I may do a break or something.

[@davidhardydh]

Very Hostile price point! 🤮 … but as always Zeeree Delivered!

[@phils6733]

Love your videos man! A box like this would be a hell of a gamble for me since I just started collecting. Unlucky pulls for 525 per, That’s disappointing. They should guarantee a big name auto atleast, and base cards are a joke for that price

[@sabinoruiz2080]

Great video and nice break. To much money for what you pull

[@DanielGagne]

I'm collecting Dallas Stars, I would buy that Dellandrea RPA!

[@richybaby3]

Everybody complains about the price and these same people keep paying those high prices..🤔🤦‍♂️

[@cheeseman5204]

Hey Zeeree! I’ve just started collecting hockey cards about a year ago and I was wondering what hobby box you would recommend for me to open. I would want a box that wouldn’t be too expensive but is worth it. Thanks and keep up the great work!

[@calixa]

OPC Platinum is a funny hobby box. Lots of great colorful parallels and a grantees autograph. Its a great set.

[@cheeseman5204]

Thanks

[@calixa]

At this point you could spend a G on a beautiful couple of slabbed rookie cards and be happy with what you have and a decent investment. Or waste your money on opening boxes hoping to hit. I've got a case of Artifacts coming and THATS IT. I'm done. 100% sitting out collecting next season. Will return when prices come down. Its just really really stupid at this point. The covid bubble drove it all too high.

[@thomasm9942]

Over 500!!!! You got the wrong Rangers Goalie to get. Giorgiev is nice-but I would rather have Igor..

[@ADHD_collector_in_the_YYJ]

Definitely high risk and high reward. The cards look great though.

[@SharksAttack]

Some good cards and couple nice Sharks but boxes are way too expensive compared to what you get.

[@brent5661]

It’s one of those products you either strikeout or hit a home run

[@robertrenaud5825]

Nice looking cards …but $1100 for those cards ……not worth the cost….rather wait for sp authentic

[@xTheGregx]

If you are a star, blackhawks, knights or maple leafs def get this. they loaded it with those 4 teams

[@Terry3Gs]

Again ... when I seen the price of these ... I was like ... at least have amazing quality control .. everything I seen so far ( watched 3 master cases opened by another utuber/company .. apparently UD also has issue's with larger card store companies doing open breaks of there products online & threaten to revoke buying privilage from card shops/companies .. scream monoply much? ) Anyways ... nothing came out with a flaw on it. With that said ... you didnt make out too bad here ... The dual Mega patch cards are the RARE ones to get in the set. And the gregorev Rangers card you got 1 of the rarer "chest logo" patch cards. They are doing chest, shoulder & arm? patch logo cards in this set. Nicest ones I've seen so far was the above mentioned utuber got a kril kaprisoz auto chest patch card & a sharks shoulder patch.

Also what do jerseys typically go for and would you want to sell me some or perhaps someone else in the comments want to go thru their Jerseys they want to sell as I'm looking for some Jerseys of my favorite players that I have McFarlane figures of to go with them on display in my collection?

As someone who’s years out from collecting but still likes to watch breaks, the hobby sucks nowadays. Everything is crazy expensive and you get less. Products have less diversity and what’s with the rookie inflation? Every hit is of a rookie now, and half the time that means a guy who’s gonna be out of the league within the year. I swear you can’t even get most notable players’ autographs/hits anymore, just rookies. Sp authentic used to be ~$100 for 3 autos now it’s 3 times the price for 2 lmao with a lower floor.
