2016-17 Tim Hortons Cards Launch Next Week!

They got chopped off too low & now the UD logo & player pics do not go where they are supposed too.. Thats messed up... Not sure what to tell you..

Congratulations! You are the lucky recipient of miss-cut off centred Upper Deck trading cards!

The only suggestion I have is to get in touch with UD about getting replacements. As for being able to trade them. That is extremely difficult unless you come across someone who collects either the players on the cards for the unique error, or someone that just straight up is into error/miss-cut type cards..... And I have never met the latter.

Thanks for the response guys! I think i may just keep them for now.

That's correct. They've said on their website that the print run was roughly 9.3 million packs.

Any idea how this compares to last years print run?

EDIT... I found odds on the Beckett site.
2015 Crosby Timbits auto /87 1:94,703

so roughly 8.2 million packs last year

I love this years set. What to my fellow collectors think of it? Post your thoughts here. Thanks.

Yeah, I'd have to agree - loving the set, much like last year. It's nice to have an insert in each pack (for the most part) and the cards look really nice, especially the rarer inserts (Phenoms, Platinum Profiles, Franchise Force). The price point seals it for me, at $1/$2 a pack it makes it a lot more fun as I don't feel burned if I don't get an insert I need. Also, I don't feel overwhelmed with the checklist and know that eventually I can build the entire set (minus the rare chaser cards). And those extra Autos/Jersey cards make for a fun chase too.

It also helps that I go to Tim Horton's everyday, so it's a combination of 2 things I love. Well done, UD and Timmy's.

I just bought the 4 different Johnny Gaudreau cards on eBay. Can't wait to get them, it will take about a week since it's from Canada. I am also thinking about purchasing a 10 pack lot if I can get a good deal.

fun to collect. I really like the album Tim Hortons is offering, nice touch. I think it's every bit as pretty as the cards, if not moreso. A must for anyone putting the set together.

Hi guys! I just got a bunch of Tim Horton's hockey card packs from my local Tim's and i think i hit a series of error base cards. The upper deck logo is completely off center on each card and the name of the team for each player is completely missing on each card (it is usually at the bottom). The back of each card is completely normal, however, the front is where somebody really messed up when cutting these or aligning them for printing. What should i do with these? I haven't seen anything like them.

Since it's only a few cards, I wouldn't bother trying to get replacements. It's probably not worth your time or effort. You can see the player/logo/name part of the printing was just placed too low for the card. Since its just a few cards, put em up on EBay and see if you can find a player collector who will overpay for a "unique" card of his player. You get one or two of those guys, and you'll make your money back and make more than the normal cards would be worth. You'd be amazed at what some people collect.

There is 9.3M more out there I am sure they will give you new ones if you take them back.. or send them into UD for replacement.
