Super Box = Absolute Garbage

bassking511 · 12-14-2013, 01:29 PM

Dont even know why I tried this. Last box of this crap ever

:special:

37Jetson · 12-14-2013, 01:37 PM

Did you double check your box for a Vaseline Pouch. That box was deplorable.

KingFelix · 12-14-2013, 03:37 PM

Miguel Sano could go on to win a triple crown, mvp and hit above 400 in the same year and his stuff will never recover from this product.

webb_jr · 12-14-2013, 05:57 PM

This is seriously the worst product I've ever seen. If I pulled that kind of crap, I'd send it back with nasty note and a dead fish. Absolutely delusional pack-outs on this stuff.

Such a scam...

I seriously question the validity of that Sosa relic, since I can see no evidence of cork.

snomelcrob · 12-16-2013, 10:22 PM

To be fair, plenty of people are breaking Five Star at a much higher price, and that may be the worst release of the year.

totally agree with this ^^^^^^

Cubs_rock21 · 12-17-2013, 02:08 AM

So far every repackaged product had held back the biggest hits. When you number the cases, you know where the cards are, these companies are a joke.

It's a sad time in our hobby when we expect these products to be like this. I was really stoked to get into Five Star this year and after I saw the handful of case and box breaks....I couldn't fathom spending money on it. The same with the Super Box deal, I can't justify the amount spent versus what's been coming out of the boxes.

Qwasian · 12-17-2013, 05:45 AM

I don't see how anything could be worse than tier one....... I literally felt like I threw my money right in the trash after I opened my case at $1200

GoJays · 12-17-2013, 06:13 AM

Kemp sketch is pretty neat, but yikes, not too good. Glad I stayed away from this stuff.

Now that's funny!

letsgocapitals · 12-17-2013, 11:10 AM

I don't feel sorry for anyone that opens this product. If you researched the product, you know it's a gamble. You also know they have the Puig Super in the product, which means they had to make profit in A LOT of other boxes. So you took your chances and lost... I'm not sure anyone can act surprised.

^^^ What he said. Tier One was a nightmare for me as well.

jewcer2k5 · 12-17-2013, 11:26 AM

The problem with the re-packs is that people keep buying these lottery tickets. I bought one, might buy one again for a shot in the dark but can't rely on it for sure.

They are in business to make money so there are gonna be losers. If they laid out that kinda cash they are looking to AT LEAST double it.

If people don't buy the re-packs they will be stuck with them but there are too many treasure hunters around that think there odds improve by getting these.

jbittma1 · 12-17-2013, 11:42 AM

Tier one was a good turn for me but Five Star is complete trash. I have been in on breaks of stuff from SuperBox and it is SuperShitty.

thetheham · 12-18-2013, 03:55 AM

These are a joke.

If you spend your money on some second rate company hoping to land a flavor of the month card in Puig, then this is what you deserve.

Sano's auto is worth what now, five dollars on the open market? I see about $10 in value on this box.

mickdapug · 12-18-2013, 06:39 AM

Ive bought several of these and other re packs...while they might not be for all...there are some very good hits in these...i hit a 2009 bc trout auto bgs 9/10...triple auto white whale of pujols,ortiz and howard among other nice hits...also had a few stinkers like this one...,,much like panini and topps...I cant tell you how many boxes ive busted that got less then 1/6 of the box price..,including high end......you cant expectgold in every box of anything...sorry you got a bad box but to just generalize is sour grapes.....this is like any other product..you get beat alot of the time!

lazygambler · 12-18-2013, 05:13 PM

I actually sold one of those exact bat relic cards this year. I believe I got around $12 for it...

zac949 · 12-18-2013, 05:51 PM

Just my thoughts

500 cases around $850 each = $425K

Guestimated cost breakdown:
Distributors discount - $25K
Yasiel Puig Superfractor - $20K (maybe less)
Every other decent hit - $35K
Fillers - $75-$100K
Packaging/Processing/Shipping - $25K

Total Cost - $180-$205K

Total Profit - $245-$270K

brandonlec · 12-18-2013, 06:09 PM

HEY! At least you got the 1/1!!

Until collectors stop wasting their money on these repackaged gimmick products they will be here to stay. Next time any of us collectors thinks of buying a product such as this we should just either go to a card show or scour ebay and buy what we want for a fraction of the cost. I'm all for gambling as much as the next guy but Sbay boxes may have 1 out of 5 boxes being decent, I really don't like the odds. I also wonder where the Puig is hiding, they packaged and numbered the box so they know exactly where and when it will be pulled, shady practice if you ask me.
