I bought most of the Blackhawks on COMC last night for either ten or five cents. Toews was $1.44 at the time so I held off. I will continue working toward reds for my personal collection.

LOL That's awesome man that you're having so much fun with it. It has its upsides for sure and these exclusive cards with a physical component to them can definitely add some fun into the day. I'm up to 3 Blues already and have five towards the next one. Gonna be pretty cool to level up again.
Habs fan and collector! Main PC's: Carey Price, Nick Suzuki, Cole Caufield, Juraj Slafkovsky, and of course...

This is the thing I don't get. UD makes these chase cards in the set, they're often quite a struggle to go through the process on the e-Pack site itself, but once people introduce them outside that ecosystem they do so in a way that utterly crushes the values. Right now a person can go on COMC and get virtually any Silver Foil base card for 30-40 cents and semi-common YG Foils for way, way less than the actual cost of buying 5 YG's. It's something that the e-Pack economy itself could control to ensure value but they don't. It's mind-boggling really.

I do believe that's where the true beauty in Compendium is, however. People are posing blues left and right on COMC and selling for cents. It's not hard for them to acquire ten. As most of us know, it's a bit of work to acquire 50, however. Last I looked (a few hours ago), no reds had been posted yet. I am of the belief that the flippers aren't patient enough.
I readily admit that there are a handful of strategically selected players that I trade for when I can and I'm going to try for 50. If I can't get there, nothing hurt. I can just trade them off if need be. There's just NO market for reds yet. The other thing is that there are guys in Compendium 1 that I know there are die hard collectors for, yet those same collectors aren't on ePack trying to make a red or gold happen. Because of this, I'm keeping those guys and do plan to sell them if I hit that 50 mark. My goal isn't to sell things off, but I've bought four boxes now and it's a way to get back SOME of my investment.
I work with numbers in "real life" and look for trends in our business. That experience and line of thinking suits me well in the ePack community, as does a pretty good memory.

I am doing it just to sate my trade cravings. The one thing I do notice is how some over value the cards to the point of stupid.
