i feel like ive been priced out of opening hockey cards all together at this point honestly. this is one of the products i wanted to open a few boxes of but i cant justify the amount of money in any way. when i think about how long i would need to work to open 1 box i die alittle bit inside

Tottally agree. For the ceiling prices in hockey card sales it doesn't justify the price. They gotta get real with the NBA , NFL and MLBA pricing structure. Really hoping upperdeck loose there monopoly and bring back panini.

Yea, I agree it sucks. It’s the breakers that are allowing the prices to go this high. There wouldn’t be enough people buying them but it’s what it is. 1 plus side is that anything 21-22 , 22-23 is actually decent value to open now..

Moving on to 24-25 OPC. The last reasonably priced hockey card set left out there that still delivers good value. 23-24 stuff is just awful with the price points and the extreme bloat that the market just can’t support. Looking forward to moving on from Bedard or bust product.

Nothing terribly exciting, I know, but you pulled around $438 worth of resellable product, coming in around at around 55% of the price you paid for the 2 boxes. Not great, but not below average, either. For the record, rookie markup is a complete scam. I won't take this business seriously until they can get these cards to market at a consistent retail price year over year, regardless of whose rookie season it is.

Next years products have the same pricepoints...the hobby is dead to me and to most sane individuals.
