I'm only missing a few non 1/1s, I do have most of his base rookies and a smathering of plates and autos. I'm hoping to save up and buy one of his gamers from his time in the AHL.

Well, it wasn't an AHL jersey but it's close enough.








The best part? With the Meigray summer sale, it was cheaper than an authentic jersey from NHL.com.

I'm so happy. :3:
Edit: I can make my own shield cards now!

Turd of a goalie who made a mockery of himself :). Already have gamers from a few of my favorite wolves over the years. I should post them up at some point.

Nothing special, probably why it went cheap. 2 clr black and white piping. I'll still take it, a 1clr patch /5 shouldnt have gone for that. It was cheaper than most of the /199 versions heh.

I don't have any, but I can point you in the direction of a few. The following ebayer listed a few patches you need but they did not sell for him. He has Jeff Friesen (3clr) Patrick Elias (1clr) and Stephen Weiss (1clr). His ebay user ID is

I was on eBay doing random searches looking for something interesting or cheap (or both) and came upon this: an autographed picture of the fight between Ruslan Fedotenko and Colby Armstrong where Ruslan literally broke his hand punching Colby in the face.



Guy had a ridiculous buy it now which meant he had no idea what this was worth and had probably been sitting on it forever. Well, lucky for him I found it and lucky for me he accepted my super-low offer.

Now why would I bother to buy such a thing at any price? Well, because I have Colby's jersey from that fight :coal:

I've got my ducks in a row as far as the waiting goes, it leaves today, Certified mail, will arrive in their offices by tuesday, have routing information the packaging to get it on the desk of the person it needs to go to who I talked to over the phone (same woman who handled my damaged box of Crown Royale). She said to include teams I collected since they won't be able to outright replace it, but you know, since when is any Coyotes card with the same as a Roy 1/1 auto? I guess if they have a shield laying around. Or one of those Prime Ties. They could send me the Rundblad Prime Ties, I'd call it even.

I called them today and after conversation I was offered my choice of a Patrick Roy 1/1 auto from Limited or a Shane Doan 1/1 auto from Limited...

If this is the best they can do, I will take the Roy and cut my losses, but considering Limited retails for half as much as Prime and the Limited auto is a sticker, I am expecting better. I moved it up the food chain and requested conversation with the customer service manager. Hopefully we get somewhere.

Maybe if they gave you both the Roy and the Doan from limited. Even then I'm not sure that'd be good enough.

It is nice Gunjin, and the Roy and Doan 1/1s from limited would probably fall into the $200-250 category, which I would take, but not be too awfully happy about I guess. It is hard because there is no real value that they can set on it, but my gut (and common sense) tells me that the Limited auto is worth at best 75% of the Prime auto, but probably less. I also don't want to seem like a jerk over the phone to them, but they are considering the two cards oranges to oranges when it is more like oranges to tangerines.

poo poo, sticker/cut auto is never comparable to an on card, except where you just can't get an on card from the guy any more. Limited is a decent product, but Prime is better, and you shouldn't have to take a hit for their lovely packing out.

Took this time to reorganize my hockey card display case, about time to shake it up a little:



I put the majority of my higher end Rundblad collection in there. Only two cards held enough prestige with me to be included in the case despite being non-Coyotes players, the Sidney Crosby Private Signings and The Kipper UDS1 patch of all patches. Still can't believe they sold me that thing so cheaply :swoon:

I might redo my other wall display sometime soon, but most of the cases are for standard thickness cards and most of what comes out these days are high thickness cards.

You never saw it because you said 'Crown Royale auto? ewww' and that was the end of it haha.


So I got on the line with Panini's CS manager and discussed why I didn't think a Roy Limited 1/1 auto was comparable to a Roy Prime 1/1 auto. We went back and forth a little, he informed me that typically the policy is if they can not replace the card, they would just send the original one back, but he was doing me a favor by coming up with alternatives. I asked him to reconsider as I have had the CS department at another trading card company work with me a little to make everyone happy. After that he put me on hold to go get my card and look at the damage. When he came back he said that he would be returning it to me as the damage isn't too bad, but he would add in a box of Prime to compensate for what was damaged and the trouble. I accepted. The end.

Seems like a pretty decent middle ground. Lets you flip the card for whatever you can get for it(200-300 I guess?) and open another box of prime and hit me a nice Gudbranson.
