u keeping, selling or trading those?

 

[DarthAnnihl8or]

Keeping at this stage, I think I'm going to go for a master set. Will get a box or two in a couple of days and let you know about any doubles that I have.

On a side note, I've bought 2 albums and the packets attached have been goldmines. I've got 2 sketch cards and the draft Rookie out of those.

The Team 2008 cards are avialable. Prefer trade.

The albums seem to be good value. A great idea by Select - and they look good.

They're way better than the old albums that they used to do.

the album is fine, but the idiots didnt put enough sleeves to fit all the cards so you have to go and buy more pages. damn annoying !

Lets work this out.

2 x packs of cards = $5.90
20 x sleeves = $10

Leaving the grand sum of $4.05 to cover the album.

Go to Card Zone let alone Officeworks and find a good quality album for less.

I think it is excellent value for money.
Of course you will need to buy extra sleeves that is part of the whole collecting idea.

That does not qualify Select as idiots. Just good marketeers.

Some people are just whingers... get use to it

haha come on guys, they are 2 pages short of covering the BASIC set, yet they sell the replacements in packs of 10. if they wanted more money, why not just put the price up a little and save us the hassle of going to the shop to get more?

EVERY other year the album has had the correct amount of pages.

I bought the replacement separately for 50c each. I didn't see them in packs of 10 anywhere.
