[Discraft] Discrafts misprint deal is awesome

[younggunlefty]

Is it still $13 when you order more than one package

FYI - if you ship it to a business the shipping is under $8 to NY. Ship it to a business to save money if you can.

:thmbup: Good to know! This will take my cost-per-disc down dramatically!

Question -- which is a better value: the "Pro-D / Elite-X" or "Elite-Z / ESP" package?

I like this thread.

It's pretty much which plastic you like better. You could always do the math to find out how much it is per disc and compare to regular price.

These six discs are HUGE! If you're not going to throw them, you should get some sick trades or decent $$$ for them. So jealous.

*considers buying more*

It looks like it's all in what you want.
The Elite-Z/ESP packages seem to come with mostly drivers and some midranges while the Pro-d/ Elite-X packs seem to have more putters and midranges with some drivers.
I haven't got my z/esp pack yet, but from what I have seen that's what you get

 

[bcr123psu]

bthoma1 has it right. Lots more putters in the D/X pack than the Z/ESP packs. The first time I ordered a D/X pack there were 2 soft APX, 2 Magnets, and 1 Banger GT. Half the pack, really.

 

[himynameismatt]

A friend and I just ordered two of these. Was 20 bucks for shipping two to Portland, OR but still 10x Elite Z and ESP for approx 8 bucks a disc? That's more than 50% off of my local stores prices.

I'm super stoked, If I get something to replace my Valk I'll be all discraft save my putters. Starting to fall in love with discraft consistency.

 

[bcr123psu]

Might get close with an Avenger SS. I've had 3 so far.

Here's my Z/ESP Set

Just ordered my first misprint packages.
This is what I got:
Yellow Z Buzzz 177g Misprint Stamp
Yellow Z Stalker 176g Misprint Stamp
White Z Extra 172 Misprint Stamp
Lt Purple Z Predator 173g Misprint Stamp
Tye Dye Z First Run Reaper 175g Misprint Stamp

Blue ESP FLX Avenger SS 174g
Blue ESP FLX Surge 171g
Yelllow ESP Force 174g Misprint Stamp
Purple ESP FLX Predator 169g

I'm actually a big disappointed as I was hoping for more than one Buzzz, some Cryztal plastic, and more midranges. Any comments on this assortment of discs?

I'd be open to trading. I can also post pictures, but not sure how to upload.

Click "Go Advanced" under the "Quick Reply" box in a thread. There's a little paper clip icon. Click that and you can upload a pic. It usually has to be resized though.

For your first pic I wouldn't mind looking that that 149 Flick.

I'm not too familiar with Discraft. Which of these would you throw?

All of them?

Thrown
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Avenger SS - Dead straight flyer. Easy to flip
Drone - Glideless meathook mid. Will beat up to fly like a new Wasp but without as much glide. I found the Drone thanks to this deal and love them
Buzzz - If you haven't thrown one, where have you been?
Stalker - Exactly like a Buzzz but 50' longer
Surge - Could be separated at birth from a Wraith (I seem to get a little more distance from the Wraith)
Predator - More controllable meathook (comparable to a Firebird)
Flick - Probably the most overstable driver made (haven't thrown a XXX though). Put everything you have into these without fear of flipping them.


Haven't thrown
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Flash - Buddy threw them when we first started playing. They seemed to fly like my Valkyrie
XL - Reputation to be close to a TeeBird but easier to turn over
Pulse - Another buddy throws these and says they're a little more overstable than the Surge. He can crank these pretty far

Thanks for the summary. That's really helpful.

I actually started with Buzzz and an XL in my Discraft beginner pack. I think I let a friend borrow them so he could get into DG.

Happy to help. If you find yourself not liking the Drone, I'd be happy to trade you something for it. I could always use another one.

Finally got my pack today, and to be honest I'm pretty happy with it. I got the three discs I wanted and the weights aren't terrible either. And for those like me who live for pictures in this thread, here you go!

Edit: Excuse my toe. It was the least fuzzy picture. hahaha

From the Top!

175 ESP Buzzz: Dragan Field DDGC 2010 Tournament Stamp
174 Z Buzzz: Regular stamp, plain ol' misprint.
172 ESP FLX Avenger SS: Nothing wrong with it as far as I can tell.
170 ESP FLX Surge: Again, nothing I can see wrong.
173 ESP FLX Surge SS: Plain ol' misprint.
167 Z Surge SS: Plain ol' misprint.
172-176 CryZtal Z Stalker: Plain ol' again.
173 Z Predator: See above.
168 ESP FLX Predator: Can't find a blemish.
174 Elite Z Reaper: First run print with outer-edge blemishes.

I'm really pumped about the heavy Buzzzes, the lighter Avenger SS, and the CryZtal Z Stalker. Those were the ones I really wanted. I'm interested in the Surge SS and the lighter Predator now as well. The Reaper is flat out ugly but I won't care if it throws/flies well. Not sure I'll be able to handle the heavy Predator. Tomorrow's the first flight!
