SPX has never been a favorite of mine, but to average$45 a card is robbery. You would have to get a monster hit to recoup the cost of a hobby box or 2. They really screwed up Metal Universe compared to last year's product(don't get me started on blasters--what a rip!!). Great content as always!!!
Ya it really seems like these products are designed for content creators because they can recoup from a third party (their audience) with ad revenue and donations ect.
Great content. Speaking to the product I’m Shocked to see positive comments at $45+ per card this has to be one of the most brutal ROI products out there. Another UD cash grab, think of the singles you could buy for $380… think of the singles you could buy instead of a box of the cup for $1400 and maybe getting $200-$300 in cards / players you never wanted anyways. Yikes
I’m not into collecting anymore but I genuinely don’t get how people still buy these products. SP authentic used to be $120 cad with 3 autographs guaranteed. Of course it was panini but the last year of panini dominion was $200 for 4 guaranteed hits, all on card, and premium feel/design. Now it’s $180 for 2 hits of shit quality, a sticker auto not numbered of a small name player and a base jersey not numbered? For $180? Are you kidding me?
it seems like the quality of cards has gotten shittier over the years and yes, a Upper Deck is a big part of that problem. Panini needs to come back and get the license again. I love their stuff back in the day. Getting screwed over on your box of cards as far as value is concerned has been a thing forever. It just looks shittier when you’re doing it with only four cards a box. But that’s the same with all high end products, high risk, high reward. It’s very rare that anybody actually makes money off of a box of cards. We all know this. Even for me it’s only happened a few times in my life and luckily they were recently. the definition of a hobby should be the thing that you like to do that sucks money out of your wallet.
I was in the hobby, I am not anymore. Almost 400$ for these cards… I don’t get how anybody could be fine with that… Upper Deck and the cards business in general is literally a hustle… The amount you would have to spend in order to get something with actual value…
You are absolutely right. Only a few years ago, most of the times you got at least same value for money, now it is nothing but a lottery with bad odds.
@miken8889 there's guys that are all stars who's young guns don't even go for 80$ at a psa 10 and patch autos of legends that aren't even worth 400$ so depends on what you think a serious card is because to 98% of collectors any decent name players rookie is their grail card most people either buy into case breaks or don't even get cards no more plus the odds of even getting like 50% of the box value back is probably about 1 in 5 with most products so we all hit stinker cards of sampu rentaa imagine someone who doesn't buy many boxes the odds are even worse then to have good cards
Nice upload & thanks as always !! :) UD, charging more money for a product they could have packaged more efficently & for less to the consumer .. like they needed to put 1 card in a pack ... wow.
Not to be a killjoy, but I don't think I'd offer $40 for an unopened box. Just way too expensive for a 2nd tier (possibly 3rd tier) product at this stage of its evolution.
I understand group breakers and people opening for UA-cam, but wow $160-190 CAD plus tax for 2 base cards, a $2 jersey card, and then a likely crappy auto is absolutely crazy. Id rather do almost anything with the money at that point or donate it to charity then to get willingly destroyed and disappointed by upper deck. If they are still selling boxes they have got to be laughing by now
Even with only four cards per pack, and all the protection they set up around it, they still manage to have damaged product.(Gustavsson) Nice hit on Caufield though. Hope for the Habs he can recover from his messed up shoulder.
This product is so weak, especially at that price point. I watched someone open a case today and the stack of decoys had almost as much value as the stack of cards.
I would consider it on card if the player had the hold the card to sign it. Example. Trilogy signature pucks. I have a martin necas where he signed the puck but when lifting his pen he hit the edge of the card itself. Witch means the puck was in the card when he signed it. So I would call it on card. Any body??
Sorry but this set went off the deepend when they started this one card per pack thing. Just make it into a one pack with 4 cards thing like premier aand stature or add some kind of base set cards to each pack lile artifacts.
Its so bad with Ud now that if you open up a case of this crap your case hit is the value of one box in the entire case. Ud is by far the worst of all the spoets card companies. Maybe they know fanatics will take over and their milking this as much as they can
Big fan of this product, but I absolutely hate the paper auto cards! I mean, even a team colour matched paper would look better than plan white printer paper...frick right off!
ill just go ahead and say it, this product blows. even when this product was 129.99 a few years ago it still sucked. boring and ugly overpriced cards. meh rookie crop. wish i had something good to say. feels like it's impossible to be positive about this hobby anymore. i did enjoy opc, though, but even that product is overpriced ($90 a box when it should be $60 or so tops). sighs.
Tremendously hostile product. Watched Titan open a full case and there was very little good in there. Some of the designs are cool but nothing really feels that special.
Imagine buying a loose pack and landing a Drake Batherson /249. I'd definitely be spending the next $40 on something from the LCBO.
People buy cases now not packs.
Can't go wrong grabbin a drinky poo from the LC
Petition for zeeree to open the cup again
at 1600$ a tin you might need to sign up for patreon instead of sign a petition :p
@@ItotheCtotheE or a kickstarter
@Cbj4282E We need to pay him the money so he can buy a box of The Cup
Forget 1 box. How about a case which is broken live
You tryna make him go broke?
There's been a Filip Gustavson pull in every opening uploaded to UA-cam so far lol

I was just talking about this, imo these companies are taking advantage of the surge in the hobby and forgetting about the true meaning of COLLECTING
Yeah that is why I have been a bargain bin hunting most of the time and only buy boxes from sets I really like.
You are absolutely right. Only a few years ago, most of the times you got at least same value for money, now it is nothing but a lottery with bad odds.
Some nice pulls, but paying $45 for 1 base card is just horrendous
Most of the cool cards i like out of the set i can just but on ebay for like 40$ in a month anyway lol.
Im def not ripping these
Who’s gonna tell him about clear cut
@@izzyl8112 at least you’re guaranteed an auto
Nice stuff but not enough fun...4 card boxes bite the big one!
Wonder if the case hit makes up for the other boxes
great. $160 for a base card, a jersey card, a sticker auto, a non auto shadow box. Why UD? Just why?
Always a good day when Zeeree uploads
Nice Caufield shadow box rookie and Pinto rja
The design has improved from previous years
Need way more serial cards for that price.
My kid would be crazy pulling the Caufield Shadow Box!
165$ for 4 cards, ill watch
Love the vids Zeeree. To the product i will say just huge WTF. what a steal by UD. and these people buy the product and even CONSIDER IT GOOD :D :D :D
Holy Crap! This is going to be another Hard No! $400 can buy some serious graded singles.
like who?
@@miken8889 I’m sure you don’t need me to do a search for $400 graded cards you’d like to own.
@@justhockeycards fact is you cant, a "serious" graded card is gonna cost you $$$ but if you want 10 samsonov's you probably ok

Sweet cards,some better names would have taken it to the next level.Only 4 cards from a box scares the heebies outa me lol

Looks like Gustavsson is this year's Mikey Anderson, lol! Great lucky break as usual!
That shadow box of Caufield is really nice.
The only way to bring prices down is to not pay the ridiculous prices.
Jeezus Zeeree! They're DECOYS! Not fillers ;)
Nice Caufield Shadow box 😍😍😍
✌🏼😎👍🏼
Wow, it’s just getting more and more expensive. I remember when SPX was reasonably priced actually remember when everything was reasonably priced lol.
It was always around a $100 cad and you got $20 of cards on a good day.
nice box man. I got mine coming in tmrw, are those 130pt thick cards? or 180s?
Hi zeeree love your vid’s and I’ve been watching for a year know and your just the best UA-camr that I’ve ever watched keep up the good work
Even with only four cards per pack, and all the protection they set up around it, they still manage to have damaged product.(Gustavsson)
Nice hit on Caufield though. Hope for the Habs he can recover from his messed up shoulder.
Love how the second box was all Sens except Makar lol, would've been a perfect box for me
That first Box was a good hit
That Senators themed box wasn’t huge hits but a fan would enjoy it
This product is so weak, especially at that price point. I watched someone open a case today and the stack of decoys had almost as much value as the stack of cards.
Nothing substantially good unless your that one lucky guy that gets the hit. I can tell by the enthusiasm in your voice.
The paper auto in the window may not be ideal but it’s a lot better than the sticker autos they used to slap on the GU/AU RCs in SPx.
$40 a card and your gonna put base cards in the mix that’s called bum fricking
"Bum frickin"??? WTF???
I would consider it on card if the player had the hold the card to sign it. Example. Trilogy signature pucks. I have a martin necas where he signed the puck but when lifting his pen he hit the edge of the card itself. Witch means the puck was in the card when he signed it. So I would call it on card. Any body??
Just wondering a loud in the comments. How much do you think an RPA Moritz Sider 74/75 would be worth?
I love how you pop these up nice cards but bad price should be $120 at most
The super scripts look sharp.
Sorry but this set went off the deepend when they started this one card per pack thing. Just make it into a one pack with 4 cards thing like premier aand stature or add some kind of base set cards to each pack lile artifacts.
Nice looking set at least but man that's pricey.
pulled a trevor zegras shadow box rookies and wade allison obsidian rookies
Would you consider trading the pinto?
Its so bad with Ud now that if you open up a case of this crap your case hit is the value of one box in the entire case. Ud is by far the worst of all the spoets card companies. Maybe they know fanatics will take over and their milking this as much as they can
Nice cards
Definitely not a good roi, wouldn’t even consider buying a pack of this. Great vid though
I literally just got into a case break for this at Dave and Adam's for tonight lol
Me too, and one that just went a bit ago lol
Good luck
How did you do earler 09corey1981?
I was thinking about getting in one tonight but I think after this im going pass. Need more Allure breaks
Appreciate u breaking this stuff so that we don't have to. Ridiculous price for a meh product at best
That's alot of packaging for only 4 cards per box
Open up more 2015 opc platinum!!!!!!
really struggling to understand that autograph on the white back, just looks really lazy.
if they put it on for 75% off it MIGHT be worth it lol
Big fan of this product, but I absolutely hate the paper auto cards! I mean, even a team colour matched paper would look better than plan white printer paper...frick right off!
sens box!
Just open the damn box
Still asking for preds cards
I would rather throw my money into the wind.
Wow basically $200 for 4 cards 😢😭
ouch
That's brutal for $45 a card imo
Ill buy the nick robertson from you
GarBage strikes again.
And $400 has been burned .
u pack caufield and dont react
can u get used Tim's card and give it away?
Hey zeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeereeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Man UD wastes a lot of cardboard
Not too excited for this product.
Hockey card boxes are framed as “high potential” “investments” by hockey UA-camrs but are straight up scams. No thanks…
Absolute garbage, 4 cards/box, ridiculous
ill just go ahead and say it, this product blows. even when this product was 129.99 a few years ago it still sucked.
boring and ugly overpriced cards. meh rookie crop.
wish i had something good to say. feels like it's impossible to be positive about this hobby anymore.
i did enjoy opc, though, but even that product is overpriced ($90 a box when it should be $60 or so tops).
sighs.
Lol
Card collecting has become a gambling addiction that can be controlled and exploited.
Disgracefully bad product , especially at that horrible price , and a year late too lol .. terrible
Tremendously hostile product. Watched Titan open a full case and there was very little good in there. Some of the designs are cool but nothing really feels that special.
Horrible product.
Hostile
wow all garbage
This is poo
Not gonna lie (ZeeRee (tm)) this was rough...
