Worst 2019 Hockey Product for the Year?

[pwaldo]

What hockey product do you think was the worst of 2019?

Upper Deck Black Diamond (Loved PRE 1998-2014 Black Diamond)
Otherwise the usuall Artificially Inflated Upper Deck High end that loses value Clear Cut, Black, The Cup, Engrained

I do just wait a little bit for any cards from them to appear on ebay at a discount compared to bothering the lotto and buying a box

Unfortunately, I have to agree with @volkov956. A lot of the product coming out is so overpriced that you can go broke trying to pick up PC items. This year, I promised myself not to purchase anything crazy on ePack such as Ultimate, Chronology and Sp Game Used because as soon as the product drops, it's on COMC for a fraction of what you paid to bust the box.

I also find myself saving my money and just waiting for my WL to appear on eBay, COMC or on forums such as SCF.

For me, it was Artifacts. I buy a lot of cases and this one was the worst I ever bought. I think Clearcut was really bad too but I think the only reason why is that prices were inflated. I’ve seen them sell for as high as 130$ while others were selling them for 70$.

Probably some of the new Panini products like Score and Prizm with only 2 players on the checklist.

parkhurst epack gold...........1000 base cards to achieve the gold is just stupid. Buybacks, I have prob seen 100 boxes opened and there was value in maybe 10

... and give it a couple of weeks and you will probably be able to pick up that ePack Parkhurst Gold for $5-10 on COMC lol.

I'm going to ignore Prizm and Score as those 2 are terrible products. But from UD I would say that buy backs had a weird checklist that was too big for the cost. Nobody wants a Nail Yakupov printing plate that was rare to begin with (but not worth much). Also, even some of the high value cards didn't look very nice in terms of autograph color choices that blended into the background or didn't accentuate the original design of the card.

I also don't have much love for Synergy, just not a fan of those designs.

I'm going to second Buy Backs. I absolutely HATE that UD has been re-releasing non-AU RCs with shiny new AUs like they're legit RCs and this product is basically full of them.

synergy on my side hate that product
