Pacific CFL cards

[.G.]

now these are no longer made but if you can, try to get your hands on some 2003 pacifc cfl atomic cards. the design on them is outstanding, they are relatively cheap ($2.00 a pack where ive seen) and you can get some fun stuff. they have a basic silver set; a red insert set which are in 1:2 packs; and a gold insert set which are very limited cards, only 175 of each was made

on top of that inserted into the boxes are 2 jersey cards, atleast one player from each team, only problem for lions fans; there is no lions one...well...there is robert drummond...but yeah...

anyways, its a fun collectible for us CFL fans without much to look forward to in terms of cards; sadly pacific trading cards is now out of business so they wont be making anymore cfl cards. 2004 was the last season they made cards for; so now only JOGO will be making cfl cards, though they dont have the flair that they would if a large company produced them.

where can we get some of the cards from?

[Solar Max]

I believe they are on eBay quite often. Just search "CFL cards" on the site.

^yeah, you can never go wrong with ebay; also try your local card/collectibles shop. they may not have them there, but might be able to get some in for you. its too bad that there isnt more of this for cfl collectors out there

I am collecting these, and have doubles anyone want to trade??? Yes E-bay is great as well.

[pacific]

I have some as well. I'll dig them up and find out which ones I have multiples of.

[MykAussie]

I still have quite a few single ones of some of the top players.

Which players do you want & I'll see if I have them?

[.G.]

This is a news article about the cards when the first came out in 2003:

I wonder how sales were. But apparently, they were too low for Pacific Trading Cards to continue producing them.

thought id bump this up again; im almost done putting together the red parallel set and am working on completeing a gold parallel set. if anyone has any extra gold parallels (these cards are numbered /175 on the back) please let me know what you have.

also, if you have any of the jerseys and inserts from the 2003 atomic set let me know; im missing 2 or 3 cards

Here is a list of sports collectible stores in Canada that might have them.

i recently found some 2004 cfl cards made by pacific; i really like these as well. they have a red parallel to the main base set like the atomic cards i posted about earlier. also in this set are subset cards - grey expectations, division collision and maximum overdrive. also included are jersey cards (there are 15 to collect) and as a special treat, 8 of the division collision cards are autographed and were randomly inserted into boxes of cards, and they are very popular on the secondary market.

i recently opened 3 boxes, and just to give you an idea, here is what some of those cards look like

i got VERY lucky getting two autographs in three boxes, plus i only paid $18 a box and i will be able to sell the autos for roughly $90 US each. but ill most likely be keeping the dickenson
