Give me a call sometime and I'll tell you all about it. Here is a sampling of just one group of dog cards I've sold at $2.50 each. These come from Upper Deck's ePack website, where you buy "packs" and open them online. Some inserts (like the Puppy cards) are real and you can trade on UD's site or transfer and sell them on COMC. These blue variant cards are ePack exclusives where you have to collect 20 of the digital copy of the base card in packs or through trading, then convert those digital cards into a real foil version of the card. The puppies sell for between 50 cents and a few dollars. The blue foils are selling quickly for me at $2.50 each. The UD Canine Collection set is one of the few you can actually turn a profit on ePack, IMO. Most of it is just degenerate gambling (hockey, some of the Marvel) and you're better just purchasing it for flipping on the COMC site directly.
