2016 Ice: What 10 boxes gets you

[ronfir]

Yesterday I busted an inner box case of 8 boxes and then two more from another case thinking and hoping it would get better.

Start off on the 2015-16 Ice Premiers rookie cards I did not pull a single rookie card that was numbered below 999. Yes, not even a 499 from this break. On the jersey cards every swatch was a solid single color, no patches, zip on that front. I guess the saving grace was at least I hit an Eichel jersey.

Out of the ten boxes, I did not complete the 100 card base set. Short 15 cards

Redemption card Fabbri Exquisite auto.

Base autos were nothing to jump up about, very low tier rookies, so here are the highlights of my break:

Exquisite base cards: best hits were a Dylan Larkin and a Bobby Orr


Exquisite autos:





Auto jersey



My favorite auto of the break since is a local player





I guess this was the case hit?



or maybe this was considered the base hit.

Retro Rookie numbered to 149



That's it, may I wish you the best on your breakage.

Wow! That is not a good break. That sucks for you man! Again this product is oversaturated, too much crap in this. Again another product I will not touch. Will stick on buying older cheaper boxes. Thanks for showing us your break and good luck in the future, you deserve it after this one.

Better luck next time and thanks for sharing.
As for SPGU, Contours and some others i'll stay away from the product. Way too much crap in there.
I'm wondering why there's not much love for OPC Platinum... best bang for the buck right now, plenty of colors and rookies. Maybe hockey collectors don'T like chrome cards...

I would say that is a 8 out of 10 rated break.

I would say that is a 8 out of 10 rated break.

In that case I would be terrified to see a 5 out of 10 rated break!

This product is brutal, not even hit a /499 random rookie is just nuts, i wonder how many crap boxes they produced that give back zero value.. and i thought game used or trilogy was brutal, this is way worse and the price for a box aint cheap either...

Not too impressed how all game used cards are just small plain 1 color jerseys of zero value..., even the game used stuff are very small except for those ice preimere auto patches to /10 which are the only good thing imo.. 150$ for a box is just way overkill not even 100$ would be ok..

I agree with your comment. I kept busting box after box thinking it had to get better! Last year for me Ice was the product of the year. I hit several awesome cards but not this year. Upper Deck really watered down the product, I guess knowing fools like me would chase the rookies to 99

Here are just a few of what I hit last year:
