[Discraft] Discrafts misprint deal is awesome

[truk]

I was checking that site almost everyday for a while. Finally, I gave up. Just last week I dropped maybe $150 on discs (birthday gift). Stupid Discraft, now I'm going to have to wait to get this... again.

Not that I need the discs, but it's always fun to get more. I know the price of the package went up, but is shipping still about the same?

Glad I didn't pull the trigger on a couple of auctions I was watching. In for one box.

And yeah, I just got lectured last night on having too many discs. Hopefully I get at least one good mid-weight understable wife-friendly driver to sell the (currently unreported) purchase.

I'm not surprised that your wife will be mad...4x$70+shipping...(not to mention the ultrastars).

You could help me...I'll sell you 10 brand new Discraft discs in premium plastic for $11 each + $10 shipping ($120 total).

Luckily, I handle ALL the finances in the family so she usually doesn't see these little bumps pop up when I'm paying the bills. In return, I look the other way when I see some of the excessive purchases she tries to make under the radar. It balances out. I'll just have to do a lot of looking the other way for a little while.

O-M-G. They must have been sitting on some pre-packed boxes. I already got a shipping notice with an eta of the 18th!

Someone alert jsun3000.

Yep, he'll be overjoyed with the news.

Ditto

they are out now. i ordred 100 packs and will be selling them for $100 shipped. jk, but they are out.

Sadly, you'd probably get offers if this is only a "1-day then out for another 2 months" thing. I know I was getting pretty desperate for a while.

 

[Sloan]

i was thinkin about ordering one but i hesitated because i am more interested in trying out some Lat64 and Gateway discs.

Totally impressed by this haul. Lots of good dye opportunities and a few new molds to try out. I was sort of expecting to see a Nuke or two, but since I'd never be able to throw 'em right, I can't say I'm dissapointed.

What's on the CryZtal Z Buzzz?

 

[truk]

The top is a white Discraft logo and the bottom says "CryZtal Z Buzzz" and 172 - 176 weight. I am kinda bummed that the "misprint" qualifier is a deep scuff in the middle of the disc, but nothing that wouldn't show up after some standard use, I guess.

The clear one next to it is a Stalker...that was a purple and black tourney logo of some sort....most of it was off though, so I have no idea what it originally said.

 

[bcr123psu]

I got a lot of the same discs. I'll post pix at some point tonight or early tomorrow. I'm very pleased with the haul:

4 Cryztal Buzzzs
1 Buzzz SS (Modified Wasp)
3 FLX Buzzzs
1 ESP Buzzz
1 Xtra
7 XLs
4 '09 Ace Race Foci (the 3 yellow don't seem to be misprints...no stamp. Only the 1 green Focus has the misprint stamp)
4 Reapers (First Run)
4 Surge SS
1 Surge
1 Stalker
1 PDGA Stratus
3 Impact
1 Cyclone
4 White ESP Crush with reflective Pro_D Eclipse label

There are quite a few discs here that would be great for dyes and others that are just plain awesome discs. Depending on what I sell/trade with my friends, I'll probably be entertaining offers for a couple of these discs in Marketplace at some point in the next few weeks.

I got a similar set, will post pics and info when I get home to my laptop. I may be taking one of those Reapers if anyone wants to sell/ trade.

 

[BennettUA]

Here's what I got in my package.
Nice mix I think. Some short discs, some long, some stable, some understable/ less stable. Good range of weights too.
The stamps don't look bad at all, just a smear here or there, or maybe not, hard to tell if anything's wrong on a couple of them. Really nothing to say, great lot.

The only one I'm definitely keeping(and looking for more of) is the Z Reaper. All other discs are for the taking if anybody's interest is peeked.

Just an FYI they were back in stock this morning. My buddy just ordered a box and had to let me know.

I ordered the Pro-D pack and split it with a friend of mine who just started playing. Here is what we got.

2 Pro-D XL (170-172, 173-174)
1 elite X XL (172) Michigan Disc Golf Organization Tournament 2001
1 Pro-D Avenger SS (173-174)

1 Midrange Elite X plastic, but no idea what it is

Probably willing to trade one of the XL's and magnets if anyone is interested.
