Anyone getting Elite Extra?

This looks like a tasty product. It's 12 packs per box, and boxes are going for $50-60 right now on ebay. There are 3 or more autos per box usually, and hot boxes seem to be coming out several per case. The checklist is interesting, maybe better than Bowman Draft at this point. Lots of rookies and 2004 draftees that weren't in BCDP, like Dustin Pedroia, Chris Nelson, Reid Brignac, and Dexter Fowler. And a lot of the best that were like Einertson, Tuiasosopo, Golson, DeWitt, Street, and Bush. And there are GU cards in Elite, but they are a lot tougher than in Bowman, which is actually a good thing if you're looking for rookies. One problem is that the autographs are numbered kind of high, like over 1000, but still, they are numbered, and they are autographs. And it wouldn't be a Donruss product without a confusing array of die-cut and numbered parallels.

I'm going to a show tomorrow. Hope someone there has it.

So I guess the answer to my question is no. At the show, most dealers didn't even know about it, and those that did didn't get any. Only one shop in town got it, AFAIK. That means either this is a real sleeper product or a real DOA product.

Helinaut:
I bought some packs of BCDP,who are the players that have the most value. I haven't heard of most of them. I didn't hear about Elite Extra, so maybe it will have some value?
