2012-13 Upper Deck Black Diamond Hockey Forum

Hey crew my eyes have not been able to find any proof that this exists other than at Beckett.com. All the sites I use do not have this card existing, anyone interested in doing a snoop around for me? I have sent a heads up to admin so not sure how to proceed. Thanks.

 What kind of proof would you like?  Can't you just take their word for it.  After all there are only 10.    Yes, it is in other checklists.  You want someone to have it up for sale?     Back to your easter eggs.

Yes, you are correct. I checked Upper Deck's website. There are a few cards (about 7) that do not have an Emerald parallel.  Someone probably used the "copy checklist" function without checking for any skipped numbers.  For skipped numbered parallels, per Admin, use the copy checklist tool and then let them know which card numbers to remove.

First off NJD your a poop agitator lol and secondly thanks for looking Cigars ........ now onto the story / rant ............

 .......... this has been interesting, Upper Deck, Beckett, Cardboard Connection all have differing checklists. The DB here and Beckett are exact matches. CBC is exactly the same as UD except there is no actual checklists for the Quad Diamond Sapphires, they only state that they are a parallel of the Emerald which puts them two cards off as UD says 215 and 224 Sapphires do not exist. So ...........  I did a whole day of reference and cross reference to try and figure it all out and can tell you this much, it makes NO sense. LOL Through all of this I can confirm that the UD site is not truely accurate as I did find an Emerald Erik Karlsson #139 on eBay and the UD site says it does not exist. Avs and I ran into this same problem with 07-08 OPC Premier and Admin decided to stick with the original OPC checklist because there was zero way to confirm ANY of the lists that are out there. What do I do throw my hands up in the air and say &^%*^ IT !!! How does Beckett come up with their checklists again? Is it just some middle aged dude or dudette not much different than me pulling his or her hair out too?!?!?!? As for now my research has been stapled togethor and thrown into the HOLLY HELL pile in the corner. If anyone has any advice please feel free to punch me .... I mean tell me. =)

I don't like the way Upper Deck lists the Emerald parallel set as 11 separate checklists. Actually they do this with all their parallel, insert, subsets. Makes it very confusing. Probably why so many of our database checklists are screwed up. Some people don't realize they break them up by attributes and need to be recombined into one checklist before being uploaded to our databse.

I put my eyes on the UD site's checklist again. You're right, no Emerald #139 Karlsson listed in their checklists. But I saw it on ebay.

So what does your gut say to you Cigars? Follow the exisiting checklists and move along or use Admin's help to come up with an answer? I think that using the UD list is the best bet and add in the Karlsson. Its a Beckett thing I guess, it always comes down to Beckett. I read a blog article on the UD site about the whole checklist thing last night and some checklists are not considered final unti lthe day before packaging. Crazy!! They say they update thier checklists to be as accuarte as possible on thier DB but that seems a little hard to believe at times. Although I find Beckett to have its share of errors too. Bottom line Cigars leave it or "fix" it, that is the question?!

Add the Karlsson card, we know it exists.
