Pack Rip - 2009-10 Upper Deck Artifacts Hockey (Retail)

Literally within minutes of me scanning these cards in today, Sal over at Puck Junk posted a pack rip of the same Artifacts retail pack from Target. As you can see, he was not impressed. Neither was I...

#35 - Jason Arnott - Nashville Predators - Boring. These are way too strange, the columns make absolutely no sense.

#44 - Dany Heatley - Ottawa Senators - Dany Heatley traded to Sharks: September 10th. Upper Deck Artifacts released: October 27th.

#49 - Patrik Elias - New Jersey Devils - John this is yours if you want it...

#96 - Mikko Koivu - Minnesota Wild - The Wild's first permanent captain in franchise history.

#95 - Andrew Cogliano - Edmonton Oilers - I'll admit it, I know virtually nothing about this guy.

Let's face it, these cards are not all that exciting. I won't be buying any more of these, especially given that there's not a Krejci card in the set. About the only saving grace is that I was expecting to pay $2.99 for this and it rang up at $1.59. Not sure if that was a sale or clerical error.

  1. I almost bought a pack of those at Target today too. Glad I didn't.

  2. Thats thier closeout price they tag older packs at.. I went in the other day and snagged the last 3 06/07 packs of ud powerplay for a 1.59 a pack.. Was a pretty good pick up.. Got a crosby, selanne,iginla, nash, brodeur and alfredsson.. Needless to say you should probably go in and buy the rest just to test your luck..

  3. I have a sealed box of 7 packs + 1 Bonus Pack. Guess it's not as valuable as I thought it might be...

  4. Hi JoAnn, unfortunately no, not really! You could probably get $10 or $15 for it though!
