I Purchased: 2 retail hot packs for $10 with each pack containing 8 cards (mines contained 6 cards) with a guaranteed jersey or patch card.
Opening Thoughts: Each $70-$85 hobby box contains 2 patch/jersey cards, so I guess I got a pretty darn good deal on these hot packs, huh?
Cards In My First Hot Pack:
- 271 - Thomas Vanek
- 314 - Jimmy Howard
- 326 - Steve Bernier
- 445 - Eric Fehr
- [Victory Update] 325 - Nino Niederreiter
The hell? This guy again?!  Most of my hit hockey cards is of this guy. At least he's a decent player.
Cards In My Second Hot Pack:
- 282 - Alex Tanguay
- 287 - Joe Corvo
- 346 - Pierre-Marc Bouchard
- 357 - Ryan Suter
- [Victory Update] 302 - Mattias Tedenby
Pretty cool. A 1:48 rookie jersey card.
Closing Thoughts: Not bad at all.
Breakdown:
- I paid approximately $0.83 per card.
- I found 1 rookie cards in my packs.
- I found 2 insert cards in my packs.
- I found 0 parallel cards in my packs.
- 0 of the cards in my pack are going to be added to my main collection*.
- The most valuable card (RM-MJ - Marcus Johansson) in my packs has a book price of $15.00**.
- There's a 40% chance that I'll purchase a product from this series hereafter***.
*Cards in my "main collection" will most likely never be sold. I'm either a huge fan of the player, or I really like the card.
**As of this writing. Data taken from 1-3 sources.
***Ranges from 0% - 100%. The lower the percentage: The less interest I have in the product, and the less I'm willing to pay for the product.
