half of you are a bunch of whiny XXXXXes. how does it ruin "your hobby"? because you're too poor to afford boxes? rush isn't forced on anyone. leaf and Heroes of XXXX could definitely use some competition.

this is great for the prospectors/gamblers (with the appropriate caveats, of course). it will put lots of nice prospect cards on the market.
Oh crap look what just landed back on here. :rolleyes:

Are you saying that your collection will be perceived exactly the same way in ten years as it is perceived today?

I'd think most people can think of at least twenty ways someone else can affect your collection.

The only person who has an effect on my collection is me. Plus, this is a hobby and its suppose to be fun, I think some of you take it too far and probably should relax when a product like this comes out. I wish them the best of luck and if I was a gambling man I would buy in.

You mean leaf needs competition. Heroes is still packing boxes out until the last dope sends them money, they they will start another BS program and recycle some more of the hillshire farms $8.00 autographs some stupid lottery ticket worth $15.00 (which now are hitting 2 per case now more and more...) or base ichiros graded 10, but for some reason we dont get topics started about those fantastic hits.

This is un-creative and a lazy way to start a company whether you like it or not.

Buying cards off of the market and inserting them into a product isn't going to put lots of cards on the market.

Gilmo gave this "company" a forum in the Manufacturer forum.

It appears as though the only manufacturing they're doing is of "cartoon" cards.

Therefore, I can unequivocally say that this is "A clown company, bro".

Uhhh...weren't these already on the market? I'm pretty sure the strategy for these "companies" is basically:

1. Search eBay
2. Purchase
3. Put in boxes
4. Distribute
5. Profit
6. Repeat 1-5

I am thinking about breaking up my own collection, marking it up 60% and then selling boxes. Anyone in?

That was pretty easy.

Can I have the last 7 minutes of my life back after reading this thread? Buy it or don't buy it, I don't like the idea of repacks, but I wish Prospect Rush the best.

You guys are ruthless.


ruthless is one word for it.

Some guys on here need to get pictures of themselves in their super hero costumes with the caption "defenders of the hobby" or something like that.

Crap products are often exposed as crap products and it never has anything to do with your relentless attacks.

3.5 Add cartoons.

I am still trying to think of a logical reason cartoons need to be put in a $200 prospect product that isn't well for a lack of better words creepy. All I keep thinking of is Tempy Moore sketches of clowns.

You're really having trouble figuring it out? I think Jeff has made it fairly clear why a crap card needs to be in there...
