1999-00 Upper Deck Series 2 Hobby Box - Huge Forsberg hit

[eberleclone]

Happened to see a box of 1999-00 UD Series 2 sitting on the shelf at Walmart and figured it would be worth the chance to hit an older memorabilia card or at least pull a few old Oilers/Bure cards. Oddly, the blue background on half of the cards is a fair bit lighter than the regular dark blue. Hit the regular low end inserts/rookies that one would expect from this until the 2nd last pack....





Sixth Sense Peter Forsberg Silver Pulsar /100

Super surprised to see a serial #ed come out of this and even more so to see the BV (150). Has a slight ding on the bottom left corner but considering I can't see any online, it might command a nice haul. Pretty worthwhile for $20. Card is FT (PC only) or possibly open to paypal offers.

Cheers!

Wow!

Very nice. I remember being 17 working at a convenience store and being bored so I opened a crapload of retail 01-02 and pulled a dual Forsberg Sakic jersey. (maybe 00-01) I later got out of my bad habits and returned to hockey cards only to sell that card for $100. Got hooked. Now I have like 10,000 cards lol

NICE retail grab.

nice box find! guess you beat me to that wal mart lol. I bought one of those repacked 24.97$ boxes, had two of those packs from 99-00 and managed to hit Sundin Marquee Attractions Quantum Silver /100 ! Wal Mart is hiding alot of those old numbered gems apparently lol

Haha I don't even bother trying to look for that stuff on your turf. The Walmart up in Whitecourt seems to get these boxes in every few weeks.

Really? I've scoped that one a couple times and just Tim's and blasters lol

I've found three boxes of this, 2 99-00 Gold Reserve (pulled a bunch of the gold RC's /2500), 01-02 MVP (A couple of stick souvenir cards), 12-13 Certified (Baertschi ARP) and a few more from the early 2000's. For being able to pick up a couple boxes a month for $20-30, I think I've been pretty lucky. Next time I pick some boxes up there, Ill hold a couple for ya.
