Well, that's Black Diamond for ya. MAJOR step back this year. Dual jersey's instead of quads, WEAK Quad Selection and how on earth does a set released in January have Thrashers Pics?!?!. Do love the championship rings set, so everything here is available for the Bruins Championship rings as well as 11-12 Score Snow Globes, Franchise and SP RC's I need for my set.

Not impressed with this year's set. Not at all. Gonna stay away from it completely in fact. The only thing I've seen that caught my eye was the Championship Ring set, that's all. The autographs are stickers and a frumpy design, and they're the case hits. Jersey cards are downgraded, and honestly, the resell value of a quad diamond versus a single diamond rookie card makes no difference to me. If it's young guns vs Canvas young guns, it's a different picture and different feel/look to the card. This is just not up my alley. Sorry you were disappointed in your boxes.

I broke 3 boxes yesterday as well. Its total garbage, will get around to posting my break a little later

[gonzo126]

Black Diamond below average this year. I am going to pass.

I am interested in Henrique. CMB for trade if available.

Read isn't a bad rookie.

I agree with Kara and Mellies Dad

[ckilgor5]

No, Read is good, but 4 boxes.............one decent name. Just saying, personally, I shall avoid at all costs.

[anusinha]

A weak rookie class, Sid and Ovie injured or sucking, no real new or fresh innovations, its making for a weak box breaking year.

I 100% disagree with all of you on Black Diamond. 4 Championship Rings per case is an easy $100 bill back and you have 2 of the better ones there. Henrique ICE is $30, Crosby Jersey is $20, Crawford Gold /10 is $40, Gretzky Quad is $20, Read Quad is $15 and then you have all that other stuff to sell. At $85 a box this is a much safer rip than Certified. Not too many $85 boxes have 99 of a card that will sell for $700 (RNH Ice /99)

RNH is /99. Very slim odds to pull one. Is only high selling rookie in set. Card maybe $700 now but will drop way down in a few weeks. Ring inserts are nice but overpriced now. No quad jerseys??? Everyone does duals! Base card design is poor also, in my opinion.

Set is a miss. I guarantee majority of people will agree.

After having Hall, Eberle, Seguin, Skinner, Paajarvi, Subban, etc. last year, this year was bound for a let down.
