Anyone use PackClub?

packclub.com?

You get discounts on boxes and get free packs sent every month for a subscription fee. Do any of you use it and is it worth it? Thanks. :)

I've never heard of it before, but would be interested in hearing if the packs they send are searched first or anything. Sounds interesting.

Yea, I just heard of it today, I was curious if anyone was a member or not.

I used to do the pack club thing until i couldn't afford to do it anymore, i did the basketball card packs and got 8 packs each time, each time i pulled atleast one game used card but the packs aren't very high end usually. the discounts come through www.waxpacks.com and you get a pretty decent discount but last i checked they were only doing cards through 03/04, nothing for 04/05 yet. wax packs also has taken over a month to mail me my order before so i've had good and bad experiences going through pack club. the ebay items they list are pretty alright though cause no one can bid unless approved or a member of the clubs and they don't start accepting bids until the last two days of the auction. i've scored some boxes at pretty nice prices through that. all in all i was happy with the club and i would do it again if i could afford it, it was nice being able to count on having packs show up each month to get my pack breaking fix :)

[kurt420cobain]

it depends on which membership you choose. go to www.packclub.com and check up the different membership options

I signed up for 3 months early last year and received Football packs, 90 Score, 90 through 93 Pro Set, 90 to 93 Fleer and 88 to 93 Topps also I beleive there was some early 90's Pacific thrown in there. Complete waste of time in my opinion.

they say the packs will mostly be 10 years old. I dunno about you but I wouldn't want packs from 1995. Looks like a waste.

[BamaFan]

They actually have 3 different levels per sport, $9.95 for what basicly amounts to 200 unopened cards from the early 90's $14.95 for post 98 cards and $17.95 for pre 87 cards check the site for more indepth descriptions.
At any rate I would recommend you stay away from this scam. It might be a good deal for the folks who have no other options but then again theres always ebay so anyone anywhere always has a better option than packclub.
