Yeah... that's not good at all! The Bourque is okay, but the rest are not! I hope that you have better luck with your next break!

I won't buy this until the price goes down.

When your LCS dealer hardly looks you in the eye when u are paying for a few packs (or a couple boxes!) you know the gig may be up.
Man... better luck next time. I'm happy I didn't bust a box of SPGU this year. These days I can't afford to just eat $180 and get nothing in return. Seems like this product has either an insane mammoth of a hit, or just nothing, bubkus. Those huge gambles might float some people's boat, but it isn't my kind of product.

RE: Epic SPGU Fail.
I've always tried to just pick up odd packs of SPGU here and there. It seems like if you buy the whole box, because of the high price point, you need a MEGA hit just to justify the cost of the box.
I've got a soft spot for it because I've always done well. every year, I buy less than a box worth (1 or 2 packs at a time from 3 or 4 different open boxes) and I always do quite well (it's alot nicer to pull a $150 card out of a $30 pack, than to pull it out of a $180 box filled with nothing else but garbage). In 2009-10 I bought a total of 6 packs from a few different boxes and hit these: (Hedman is /99) Last year, I bought only 3 packs and hit this: and this year, I am 3 packs in (from 2 different boxes) and have hit these 2: I just actually pulled the Dual fight strap today. I have seen some pretty weak breaks for sure, but there are also many gems to be had in this product.
Currently Collecting Patrick Roy, PK Subban and Carey Price.
