Beckett Box-Busters
Just watched a video where they bust 2 boxes of the Upper Deck All-Time Greats product and they pull a 1/1 Wayne Gretzky Auto!
What happens with that card and why does it always seem they get huge hits on there?
I know Upper Deck is trying to promote the product but there HAS to be a way that card can get into the hands of someone buying a pack.

The cards are given away in random prizes throughout the year or during Customer Appreciation Month.

Thanks Susan! Makes me feel a bit better but I still think Upper Deck needs to rethink their marketing strategy.

Upper Deck needs to stop sending Beckett the loaded boxes, and they need to redirect them here to Halifax!!! Now I know where all of their sick hits go!

It's called an advertising budget. It only costs the collectors.
