Got a little bored at work today and figured I'd give a few e-packs of SPx a try. Obviously I get it. They can't all be winners, but from a one card per pack high end product? 4 straight non-auto non-jersey base cards. You have to be $%#$^&in' me. I guess I learned my lesson. Shoulda bought a box instead of single packs I guess.

That's the rub when you buy individual packs on epack. Unlike a store, you're not buying 4 packs from a single box but rather 4 packs from a pool of what could be thousands of packs that would've combined to make x number of boxes.

I got back $35 (after fees and shipping) out of $400 worth of these packs. "Never again" :D


Luck of the draw... monsters lurk in this product... and so do bums.

Biggest waste of money are these ePacks unless you do it by the case. I busted 14 hobby boxes of Series 1 over the last few months. I haven't hit one card worth more than $20 (Nylander YG). No High Gloss, No auto, nothing like that.

I don't agree. I've had better luck doing it by the pack personally. But even then, my luck seems to vary by the product. Did way better with series 2 than series 1; so, I went heavier on that as a result.

I have had great luck. Share of duds. But overall pretty good.

uh ok, ? what were the other hits? 4 base cards sounds a bit odd...

It is 1 card per pack. He purchased 4 single packs.

I've had the same experience.

Better luck next time, OP.

You are not wrong. 5 packs here and nothing to write home about.

Same here. Bought 5 packs and got 2 no name rookies and got 2 jersey cards and one DAMAGED AUTO card. I have a case opened with UD-epack regarding the damaged card.

How in the world is the card damaged through epack?

the card was butchered all along the top. It was done in the manufacturing process.

Yup and you all still love Upper Crap. I gave up on them after they refused to replace 3 heavily damaged Mcdavid rooks a week after series 1 release. They also did this to me on Malkins young gun and Price rooks no love loss and I admit that.

You can Have UD folks and I am gonna laugh at stuff like this.
SpGU is crap
Trilogy has always been garbage
Artifacts was okay unless you hit a biggie
What they did to Black Diamond sucks and was an obvious cash cow
Full Force ...really I just laugh my ass of at it
Ultra has been a joke since they brought it back stop me if I am wrong but I see a lot of complaining about this crap and yet you keep buying. I guess there must be a lot of addled Canadians out there. I guess I am the only one that really would like some kind of respect from a company that I am spending tens of thousands of od dollars every season but hey you like so we are stuck with them,
