Just went through my junk wax stash and found a few gems. I have a 1991-92 Upper Deck hockey box with English/Czech text on the box. Couldn't find any similar. Any ideas if it has any value?

    1991/92 UD Czech World Juniors. It was a 100 card set, with the first major issue Paul Kariya card being the highlight of the set. Also contained rookies of Keith Tkachuk, Nikolia Khabibulin and a few other former star players. Not sure of the value on it, however, looks like recent eBay sales range from $28-$65.

    Main collecting focus is Patrick Roy playing days 85/86-02/03, expect 1/1, National/All-Star stamped cards.PC Completion: 2,548/2,952; 86.31% My Patrick Roy PC Website:https://proy33collector.weebly.com

    Initially this set was on fire. Like other UD issues from the era, the perceived scarcity was quickly replaced with the realization there was a lot of this stuff around. Really fun set with a stellar checklist. Yashin, Kariya, Kovalev, Tkachuk, Straka, Palffy, and many other longtime NHL'ers in this one.

    I enjoyed breaking a box of this. Got 5 Kariya's.

    I remember the insanity over this at the time. The Hamrlik card pre-dating his RCs and the Kovalev, Yashin and Zhitnik were big before Kariya made the set go nuts. I opened a box last year and didn’t do as well as you but brought back some fun memories.

    I think packs were something like $7 apiece when it was first released.

    Hey has anybody else seen those Gretzky Hologram Cards on eBay selling from PWCC Vault? They're asking 25-35k for a PSA 10. Are these actually worth that much??? It sounds way over priced to me.

    Looks dumb, but they can ask any price they want. Can grab yourself a raw one for 99 Canadian cents, lol (not psa 10 quality of course), but still quite the price drop off.
