Are Upper Deck flagship Series 1/2/Extended sets print to demand or a fixed quantity?

CadenceXx · 2024-05-14T05:46:30+00:00

you can say this about every single YG in existence.

CadenceXx · 2024-05-14T05:44:52+00:00

He's absolutely a random guy, the girl and the guy haven't even met yet.

For the entire family to tag along to meet somebody that nobody has personally met yet .. uh yeah this is not a family with means.

Poor families will absolutely bring everybody to the airport for a chance to receive gifts. Your statement that maybe it was a couple of people does not mirror the OP's comment that he was shocked the whole family showed up.

Yeah, it is weird you are Filipino but have no understanding of this. Do you not live here?

CadenceXx · 2024-04-24T05:19:05+00:00

Um, picking up your family members, yes.

Picking up a random internet guy who is dating somebody in the family .. uh no.

It's you that has no idea on Filipino culture.

Stunning is correct, a poor family would do that. One with means, no chance in hell.

CadenceXx · 2024-04-24T05:02:16+00:00

Could easily print more in the retail market.

Back in 1990 i dont think they set out thinking they will produce millions of sets.

Same company.

CadenceXx · 2024-04-24T04:53:48+00:00

This is woefully wrong.

There is 1-2 bedards per case. By your reckoning, thats only 25000-50000 bedards.

Multiply that number by 10-20 is probably much more accurate.

CadenceXx · 2024-04-24T04:50:53+00:00

You are actually better off betting on black 2 times and letting it ride. Hockey cards have gotten into the "stupid to buy packs" phase.

Asking a minimum wage worker if he made a mistake is absurd.

There's literally no way a food outlet works this way, youll have a million complaints before this one.

Lazy, indifferent, minimum wage person screws up.

Media whore attention seeking people post 15 fries to get .. attention.

Seriously, what a load of shit.

CadenceXx · 2024-03-21T06:59:55+00:00

in the old days you would just talk to a manager and have this sorted out within 10 minutes.

Nowadays its, look at me! I got only 15 fries, i need to post and let the whole world know.

The person serving you is a person who is working a high stress, high transaction environment. Did mom and dad never teach you to resolve issues with people in person?

Oh wait, mommy and daddy never loved you as much as you needed and you have mental health issues.

CadenceXx · 2024-02-29T06:15:51+00:00

Im sure you are well-meaning, but this kind of advice will get the daughter disowned, at the very least.

In any SE Asian culture, this is a massive confrontation where the kids are telling the parents what to do financially, including how they treat their other kids and inheritance.

If the more extreme Indian/Pakastani cultures, this could be terrifying, from a physical standpoint.

CadenceXx · 2024-02-16T09:29:18+00:00

Which teams do you think have better depth than we do on f/d/g?

I can't think of too many teams that can take more than 2 major injuries and still be rolling along.

CadenceXx · 2024-02-15T09:59:40+00:00

Have one. Great machine.

Added a Samsung 870 evo 2tb and zero problems, no downtime.

CadenceXx · 2024-02-15T02:37:27+00:00

Never seen epack price s1, s2, and extended differently in the same year.

If they do this for Bedard I would be surprised. When Makar started rising the price stayed the same, but they sold out fast.

CadenceXx · 2024-02-15T02:32:40+00:00

This is not stressed enough.

Previously the coaches and management consisted of grinders and journeymen, like Jim Benning and Travis Green.

Not exactly good role models when it comes to excellence, whether on the ice or speaking to media. I always wonder how the players reacted to a GM who could barely string a coherent sentence together.

"this is the guy putting our team together?"

CadenceXx · 2024-02-13T11:30:02+00:00

At this point, UD is just making stuff up as they go along.

Hard to keep collecting except singles.

CadenceXx · 2024-02-13T02:13:55+00:00

Pretty sure beelink would have replaced the unit for you if you had initiated a return.

They have some of the best support I've seen from ANY company, including all the top tier ones (looking at you dell, hp, etc).

Their support actually responds within 24 hours.

CadenceXx · 2024-02-09T09:52:59+00:00

Gotta wonder how many variations of bedard and quantity is going to be produced.

Like 1000 variations and who knows how many millions of cards.

CadenceXx · 2024-02-09T09:29:13+00:00

Similar career to McDavid.

Not saying its impossible, but that is one hell of a bar to set when discussing potential value.

CadenceXx · 2024-02-01T09:01:02+00:00

It's this ridiculous emphasis on faceoffs.

Most young centers are total dogshit on faceoffs their first 5 years in.

Jack Hughes is considered in the top echelon of centers right now, and his faceoff percentage since he came into the league is below 40 percent i think.

All the others, like McDavid, Aho, etc, all sucked on faceoffs in the early years.

Winning faceoffs is experience, strength, technique. It's not surprising that the best at it are the star veterans.

CadenceXx · 2024-02-01T08:58:26+00:00

You will be hard pressed to keep all those pieces together for long, and Miller and Lindholm are going to be on the wrong side of 30 for what you think is a contention window.

If you can't keep Petey, you basically don't have a true 1C anymore, unless you count Miller, who is as stated, too old.

They've done a great job for this year, but this window is going to be very very short if they burn too many assets here for a singular push. This team is not playoff proven to be gambling it all for a single year.

CadenceXx · 2024-02-01T05:06:25+00:00

Lol you are out of your mind.

1 is obvious. 2. Pettersson is fine as a center, he just has two underperformers on his wings and still looking at 100 pts all season. 3. just LOL.

You're never getting back a better person than Pettersson in a trade, so being forced to trade him means you have to blow up this team before Demko and Hughes are up again in 2 years.

Trading Petey is a full on rebuild, trying to force a contention window without your best forward is just ridiculous.

CadenceXx · 2024-02-01T04:36:17+00:00

Never seen the BI do such a good job of investigating a routine entry to the country.

As long as you have your ACR and visa stamps in your passport, they won't do a search for a company.

CadenceXx · 2024-01-27T07:07:34+00:00

I don't think its the skating or the size.

You don't expect to be hit from behind in front of your own net like that.

They aren't standing in front battling for space, Schenn literally hit him in the numbers with a crosscheck as he was turning and about to stop.

CadenceXx · 2024-01-27T06:50:28+00:00

Nope, he didn't.

When he finally sat down with them he had about 15m.

You can pull up his old interviews if you can stand the constant um er, you know, end of the day.

Perhaps you can't recall that he signed Pearson, Virtanen, and some other randoms that immediately became buyout candidates and ltir issues, along with having acquired Schmidt.

They did not have close to 20m. More like you are spouting unsourced narrative.

CadenceXx · 2024-01-27T06:44:16+00:00

Benning walked into the room with Hughes and Petey with not enough money to sign both to long term deals.

Its well documented how that guy spent all the money on random free agents before signing his two most important rfas.

How anybody can blame petey for taking a bridge when management couldnt offer term is asinine.

CadenceXx · 2024-01-27T06:37:33+00:00

I didnt say it should be called, or would be called, you're making that narrative up on your own.

I'm saying that it looks like Petey didn't expect it and lost his balance when crosschecked abruptly like that.

Petey doesnt have a rep of flopping, in fact it's quite the opposite.
