2016-17 Upper Deck Euroleague Joe Alexander
While searching for some obscure former WVU players I came across this EuroLeague Joe Alexander card. The price was right so I threw it in my cart and made the purchase. It wasn't until I had the card in hand that I researched the set a little more. It is a tad bit confusing.
This was the first year the EuroLeague set moved exclusively to ePack. You're probably thinking how in the hell do you have a physical card. Well, UD added a physical component, but it was kind of a pain in the ass. The base set is 100 cards in which they are only digital. If you collect 10 base cards of any one player you could earn a physical rainbow parallel. The redemptions are made through COMC, thus explaining how I purchased this Alexander on there. So while I initially thought I was overpaying for a base card it turned out to be a little more involved. Either way I'm happy to have a new Joe Alexander card.
Happy Friday!
Welp, I suppose I'm keeping the second one of these that I picked up for you!
ReplyDeleteI'll happily trade you for another copy of it, but they are pretty scarce so you might be able to make a buck.
DeleteI wdon't ndered what happened to Alexander. Loved him in college
ReplyDeleteThis is kinda off topic... but after seeing Alexander's name in this post... I was taken back to 2008/2009 when I was building the Topps Signature set. Alexander was one of the short prints in the autograph set. He super difficult to track down and was one of the final cards I picked up.
