Toronto Expo 2009

Was just wondering if anyone had any idea what boxes/packs I should bust while Im there. Ill have around 400 cash and about 300 in trade that I will be using. I was thinking maybe 2 packs of ultimate mem so I can get the redemption from itg and then maybe two boxes of hot prospects so I can get two redemption from Upperdeck. Oh did I say that. I ment 1 box for me and 1for the wife. HEHE. Last year I did great with the upper deck redemptions. I got a perry and then my brother pulled me a Crosby 19/25. Which im going to be using as trade bait when I get there.

Is UD even going to be there doing a redemption program? I haven't heard anything about their participation at the Expo.

Someone jump in and correct me if I'm wrong here.

No your not wrong I just assumed they would be there. They are basically the only company other than ITG. Make sense they the would show up and reward their Loyal customers. But then again this is upperdeck. So who knows. Hopefully the finally deasion is notmade by the customer service VP. If thats the case then forget it. The redemption program will probablly end up being [content edited] Just like there customer service has been for the past few years. With barry being the one excemption that I know of.

Does anyone have any idea what i should bust. Help need badly. Ill have around 3-4 hundred cash and about 3-4 hundred worth of trade. So not sure what I should bust should I go extreme high end or mid range and hope I get lucky. Your help is greatly appreciated.

I picked up the program a few weeks ago and it doesn't even show Upper Deck under the corporate booths, so I'm assuming they won't be there.

In that case any idea what i should get.

I think you should buy some autographs of players that previously attended The Toronto Card Show. We'll be setup in booths 1018 and 1019. :)

Seriously, I think you should come by the show, take a good walk around and then pick up what keeps on pulling at you to buy. There will be wax aplenty!

If I had to make a suggestion, I'd say go with 2008-09 BTP. The boxes are loaded and I just had fun breaking one at the Toronto Card Show yesterday (will post my box break soon).

Are you going to ahve any BTP and if so what are the prices
