361.0. "91-92 o-p-c Premier" by COGITO::RICHARD () Tue Nov 26 1991 13:00

    I just spoke with my dealer "friend" on the west coast last night, and
    he informed me he got in his o-p-c order form in yesterday. He is con-
    centrating his order on premier, and they're "LIMITING" each dealer to
    5 cases, i guess to try and make the stuff seem hard to get. It may
    very well be tought to get 'cause I don't know how many dealers are
    going to dish out $850-$1000 a case. (24 box case.) There only shipping
    Feb. 10th, so that's a long time to hold up someone's money...I don't 
    know how many dealers are going to dish out 4500 clams to wait 3 months
    for. He says he's gonna buy his 5 cases and sit on it to see what
    happens. He offered me a case from another dealer he knows for $950; a 
    little rich for my blood, that translates to about $38 a box...

    If you should change your mind let me know. Then you would only need to
    get another 22 people to buy a box. :}

    One dealer (out of about 30) had a bunch of singles for sale at a flea
    market yeaterday. These cards look exactly like last years except they
    have a '92 in the corner and the lettering on the bottom is bigger.
    The amazing thing is his prices were reasonable. ($4 for Jagr, $1.50
    for Roenick, .50 for Oates). He didn't have any boxes or packs, just
    a bunch of singles.
    
    How 'bout them apples,

    Glad you think $4 for a piece of cardboard with some ink on it straight
    out of the pack is reasonable Bill.
    
    I don't.
