Pretty arrogant for a new guy. Your opinion is noted but you have no idea about the popularity of the show. For example, Once Upon a Time. I'm still kicking myself for not ordering a single box. I won't make the same mistake with The Outlander or The Orphan Black.

Pretty arrogant for you to say.

I thought I was entitled to my opinions.

But I guess if I don't agree with you I am wrong, eh comrade?

You are entitled to opinions, but they're not facts. In tone, you've been the only one acting as though you have difinitive facts and any other opinion is stupid. Answering reasoned dissent with the equivalent of "no" is about as childish as pretending that being called on the attitude you are presenting is somehow censorship.

Cryptozoic has been pretty good at choosing oddball winners so the only real truth is that we have to wait and see.

Welp, you can eat your words right about now Northwellguy lol.

This set is the biggest hit of 2016, and Carr was right. Looking at singles, it is insane how great this set is selling for. Binders over $100? Aggie and i have been discussing this set a bit. Boxes sold out at $160ish.

Thoughts?

I'm still shocked at the prices some of these cards are selling for. I was worried that nobody would purchase this product. I hope to open more boxes, but who knows what they will sell for in the future.

You have to wonder if there's demand from a new market - non card collectors who are fans of the show chasing the singles to make sets ? I know on Twitter etc the fanbase is very passionate about the show. It has a huge following..

I've watched it since day one, and find it odd that people just suppose that this show is for women only. I know there wasn't much talk about this set on here, and judging by the box break section nobody seemed interested. I did see a lot of people posting their cards on Twitter while the majority of them were females. It appeared most were non card collectors like you mentioned.

Agree, it's not a "show for women" at all. I too have watched it pretty much from the start, but I'm a bit behind now, the second series hasn't hooked me quite as much as the first.

I guess though that historical drama's (even those with a sci fi/fantasy twist) probably don't instantly appeal to the majority of card collectors. But the show is certainly worth a look.

I missed the boat/forgot about this one. My wife adores this show. Its right up there with GoT for her. I was going to pick a few boxes up...as opposed to a case figureing the demand wouldnt be there. Guess I was wrong!
