Not feeling it. I'll probably pick up the Latos and Rizzo but have no intentions of picking up the set.

should to the mini (traditional A&G) set

I wonder what hobby shops think of this, I guess it doesn't matter shops are doing very well these days.

Why would anyone buy this? YOU ALREADY HAVE THE SET!

Wow its shiny, something ginter never was.....big shat.

Why dont they just leave the backs off and call them "proof sets?", little more real to the originals

 

[markakis8]

I bought a set

I thought the main Ginter market was "set builders" not "pre-made, no work involved, this is bullsh!t, I didn't get to spend 6 months digging through quarter boxes, factory set buyers"

These low print,unpopular upon release sets seem to fair well in the market years after release.Similar to the 2001 Topps HTA factory set.

$0.30 each for 350 numbered cards?

Sounds like a good deal actually.
Easy to sell the stars & rookies at $1.50 each.

Did it already sell out?

Would be awesome if they made sets like this more often,,,and there be enough markup for hobby stores to sell them..
2004 Upper deck glossy sets were sold to stores for $100 or $150 and it was too much to resell so basically sets sold for cost or less, maybe thats why they are trying to sell them directly..They may need $100 for the set but if they sell to stores & distributors, then the dealers would have to sell for $150.

But they always sell good for singles!

The Royal Wedding card will be huge.

And NO I'm not joking.

WHAT??????? Topps did something, get the pitchforks

rabble rabble rabble rabble rabble

The box is numbered, not the individual cards.

The ad says, "Each Card is Foil Stamped with Matching Set Serial Number!"

So when I sell singles, the complete team buyers will get all the same numbers!

Now that's somewhat appealing - it's virtually impossible in all other products to compile a matching serial-numbered set, but not only possible but likely in this case.

I had a $10 coupon code from the Diaomnd Giveaway, so I went ahead and bought one - not sure what I will do with it - but it is on the way.

I had $10 coupon too, but when I redeemed it, it said it could take up to 2 weeks to get the coupon

I redeemed mine a couple of months ago - so I had the code sitting in an email. I just finally used it.
