Upper Deck Expanding e-Pack Roster to 7 Releases

[geschrocks33]

Its whatever. I don't like it. UD likes it as it generates more $ for them.

Sure Card Values will drop but hell when 25+ releases come from 2 companies it doesn't matter.

Its going to be a hard to get some of those parallels if pulled in e pack and not listed on ebay and such. I cant even get them all when they are on ebay much less hidden away on peoples epack accounts

It was a nightmare for me as a player collector with MVP, because all the ePack superstars who drop thousands just hoarded all the good stuff to themselves. Anything exclusives, high gloss, and the worst was Super Scripts from MVP were all locked away in ePack accounts from those same 3-4 guys, and they wouldn't move them unless you gave up a huge premium in cards. It's good because you have a higher level of access to certain cards, but also hurts you when those guys just hoard nice cards just for the heck of showing off their strength.

I would love to see OPC.

I agree, and I have emailed them. I think OPC would be a natural for epack. After all, they want to completely get rid of commons, and that is mostly what OPC is, so why wouldn't they?

But OPC is "The" base set that people collect. I would be very disappointed if they got rid of OPC base cards and turned it into epack.

If anything, once stuff hits COMC en masse it won't take long for values to crater. Look how many of the UD1/2 inserts are there, some as low as 30 cents and they don't move. Sellers are literally asking for a nickel (COMC gets 25c) and they can't move. LOL

Hopefully it will be a bit of a stronger market for the OPCP parallels.

I never thought of that. But you're right. That does happen. I couldn't even make a fair offer card wise or $ wise for some cards.

For OPCP I think it will still be beneficial for it to be on epack. Right now there is a ton of unopened product for OPCP for last year and this year. Some parallels I can't even find on eBay searching for the past year.
