Ncaa Basketball 2011: chris paul

chris paul

Last July 1, 2010, I bought one box of 08-09 SPx along with three other unopened basketball boxes from Dave and Adam's Card World.

A box of 08-09 SPx contains 10 packs. Each pack contains 3 cards.

Each is guaranteed to contain one autograph or memorabilia card.

These are what I got:

I like the design of the base cards. They're acetate.

The jersey cards
* Chris Paul / Deron Williams Winning Materials Combo
* Detroit Pistons Stuckey / Hamilton / Wallace Winning Materials Trios
* Michael Beasley Freshman Orientation
* Russell Westbrook Freshman Orientation
* J.R. Giddens Freshman Orientation

Kevin Durant Winning Materials
Paul Pierce Winning Materials

Rookie cards
* Kyle Weaver Home #d/599
* Kyle Weaver Away #d/599
* Chris Douglas Roberts Home #d/599

VERDICT: ****** 6 out of 10 stars!

The 2009-10 Exquisite Collection was Upper Deck's last Exquisite release (for now at least) after Panini was able to grab hold of the NBA sports cards licensing monopoly.

In the product, Upper Deck bought back old Exquisite cards from the previous releases and have them signed by various players.

Redemption cards were then issued for these buybacks.

I was able to purchase four of them off eBay:

DWIGHT HOWARD 2009-10 NBA EXQUISITE 08/09 BASE CARD PARALLEL NO #ING CD#3

DWIGHT HOWARD 2009-10 NBA EXQUISITE 06/07 BASE CARD NO #ING CD#30

CHRIS PAUL 2009-10 NBA EXQUISITE 06/07 BASE CARD NO #ING CD#27

VINCE CARTER 2009-10 NBA EXQUISITE 06/07 BASE CARD NO #ING CD#25

I then set to redeem them at Upper Deck's redemption page.

After some simple steps, I was given a listing of the redemption cards in your account with Status for each player as: Athlete committed to signing soon, please be patient.
