The right price for The Cup

jonefriedman · 10-04-2012, 07:22 PM

Hi all,

I was wondering if it has been determined yet what the "break price" is for The Cup this year? What I mean is at what price is breaking a 3 box case a value break? I have seen prices all over the place and was wondering if anyone had an opinion on this.

Thanks,
Jon

I think $400 is a fair price for both seller and buyer.

Man, I would love to buy some Cup at $400 per box. The rookie class is weak so $400 sounds right. Unfortunately, online retailers won't budge at $500 and people are paying that, so it's hard to buy The Cup at a decent price. I've gotten previous year's versions at $350-$400 but for some reason, people won't budge from $500 this year.

If we all stop buying at $500, the price will come down.

Distributors don't want to sit on too much of this stuff, especially if they know they can move it at a cheaper price and still make good money.

a lot of them are still in there, trust me, the short print rookies and high end cards are hard to come by, its still a nicer product than Dominion although Dominion has really surprised me
