2011-12 EXQUISITE: Preview Pictures....

[SportsItUpCards]

I thought the price would be listed here as they always do... but not yet. I would check back to this page from time to time because they will update it as soon as they have the info. They always do a great job, and actually reported on Fleer Retro as soon as the checklist went live...

Here's the link: 2011/12 Upper Deck Exquisite Basketball Checklist

Is there a reason Jordan doesnt sign anything with inscriptions?

That would be a HUGE card to pull if exquisite had some stuff like that in it.

i'm sad about this college uniform nonsense. i just can't pull the trigger on this stuff.

[theautographkid]

YES! Can't waiit! Anyone know where we can order a case, or how much they are going for?

Well, i'm definitely not buying this product.... but maybe i'll buy singles if there is any players I like in this set, and set designs I like. The Bling is looking a little sexy, but nothing to make my panties get wet or anything.

Could not agree with you more...exquisite isn't looking so exquisite........and why don't they release UD black?!?! Such an awesome product! I'd buy UD black over "bling and booklets" HAHA what a joke. I am surprised they messed up.......I don't think they took their time. With retro you could tell they were thinking of us before designing and printing. This just looks like they're marketing these for UD addicts and gamblers. Seriously.....This is crap

LOL, he said in the same post that he likes UD Black and Retro, and he just doesn't like the upcoming Exquisite product. Yet you tell him to keep buying Panini products? LOL, hardcore UD people need to chill.

looks really nice. Kudos to upperdeck on seeing the loop hole on the system...
no Nba licence... still making Money...
the booklet will look awesome once you got them... center piece of the display...

That 12 card would look nice framed and matted with game photos or rookie cards of each player around it.

So people complain that Panini floods the market with Kobe Autos.. But UD will have 300+ Jordan Autos come out in a year. LMAO

its true, just as bad IMO although they dont produce quite as many as panini does kobe, MJ autos are much more desirable

Exquisite football was a big hit because of all the rookie autographed jumbo patch like cam newton. looks like for rcs, they're only going to have the plain autograph. ALso they don't have some of the best rcs like kyrie irving. So its like exquisite football without the chase cards. Lack of patch cards or logoman i think will be a big bummer and it'll be more like UD black than exquisite. (well at least ud black had rc auto patches too). And i think $2600 for the case is pretty ridiculous but due to retro's success, the dealers are assuming we will jump on it anyways.

[ninjacookies]

Ok, let's look at this from the 'logistics' standpoint.

You get 1 michael jordan auto per case. I'm pretty much guessing that these jordans will sell between the 800-1k or more mark right out of the gate. Then you're guaranteed one more 'top tier' auto per case, meaning another mj/lebron/or magic auto per case.

Then probably a lot of singles and possibly some legends autos that will sell fairly well in the secondary market.

If the presell is around 1600 or less, I think this would be a no-brainer. But anything more and I'm probably going to have to pass.

I personally hate all these college based products with a passion (including Retro), but I don't hate easy profiting from flipping sealed cases.

I just wish Panini actually come out with a high end product like national treasures to put UD in their place. Its because they keep releasing low end product which forces buyers to look to UD which has products with high price mark.

If i had a choice of Exquisite at $2600 and National treasures at $2000, i definitely choose national treasures.
