Another day another set ..... OMG, here is my call to all for help on yet another set. This one looks to be just as bad as the Artifacts one I worked on for weeks!! My concern to start is the Pairings sets listed as they have Ranford in them, first off UD has very little info that appears to be either incomplete and/or drasticlly different from the DB. Heck two of the sets on the DB dont even have checklists yet and so far I have had zero luck finding any info at all ........... Gosh darn it anyway .... LOL .......... as Yoda once said "There is no try just do."

Here I think is a pretty good article that should help me out, it should be accurate you would think, it may not have a checklist to work from but it appears to have all the sets and parallels listed. It seems pretty in depth to not be right. How accurate do you think it is? Any input would be great.

Anything is a good start point. I would compile a list off of the site and then refine as neccesary.

Thanks avs .... got a start on it earlier and will throw updates along the way, if I get stumped again I will be sure to ask the experts!! LOL

Has anyone been doing any updating for this set tonight? I was there this morning and the two sets that didnt have checklists now do. If someone did could you help me out by telling me where the info came from? It is for the Pairings sets, I have been looking all day and am still stumped so a link or a tidbit would be SO greatful. Hard doing a bunch of legwork and then finding it changed all of a sudden. Thanks in advance.

That would be me :)

Where did you find the info you super slueth ....... I'd almost think you were playing me!! Especially when the one Ranford card says (it was not produced)!!! Where do you find all this info, I am simply stunned that I can never find any of this stuff. I've googled, ebayed, comc, photobucketed, then googled again, heck even tried wikipedia and I cant find any listings for the stuff you find. I went over the list from the UD news article and have found everything so far except for the Pairings sets. I changed the one name to "Pairings Autograhed Patches" so it matches the jersey set. Hope you don't mind.

Well now this has been fun!! Five days of searching later and this is what I have found out, every single checklist I have found for the Pairings set IS likely incorrect. I have gone to every site you told me about avs, plus many others and I could not make any checklist make sense. I browsed 600 pages on photobucket alone and this is what I have found.

I have found four definite seperate checklists for both the jersey version and the patch version and of those four sources ......

I found six cards on photo bucket that do not exist on any of the known checklists. Four cards listed on all checklists I could NOT confirm even exist.  Of the 58 cards either listed in a checklist or I found visual confirmation of existing this is the breakdown ......  I found 45 of 58 jersey versions and 43 of 58 of the patch versions.  Of the 58, 34 I can confirm have both versions. So to this end I have a XL document of what I have found if anyone else feels like taking a kick at the can.

My mind is fried and I am stunned at how patheticlly a hockey card set can be produced, documented by such a huge company, good job UD. I am thankfully headed for two weeks of down time .... wont be around until the 10th. My wife and kids are spending 14 days camping where there is no cell coverage or internet. Will be worth it!! I will pop back tomorrow for one last boo before I am gone til August. This set is killing me!! LOL

send me the document, i will take a look. Enjoy your trip
