2012 Certified Football Cards

Brad and Scott, if you want a certain value out of packs just buy the cards you want from ebay. I’m sure you will save a lot of money since cards on eBay sell way below what they are worth. Buying packs are a chance…. Just like buying a scratch ticket. You buy the packs because you want to hit a card you can’t normally aford. Try buying a 1/1 RG3.

Five stars for 2012 Certified! I purchased 2 boxes and these cards are in my top five favorite cards! I come from the old school of thought that less is more, and this product definitely nailed it for me. From rookie cards to the veteran cards, everything was done in exceptional taste! One of my prized items in my collection is a Doug Martin relic, auto, #. The relic on this card spells out the team name! My favorite all time pull from this set is the simple yet stunning Ray Lewis relic card! I hope he goes into the sunset with another Superbowl ring.

There nice looking cards but there not worth anything. i purchased 3 boxes and get any good rookies and the signed cards i got werent worth anything the few relics i got were numbered to 49 and its worth 8 bucks. so i would stay away from these cards

Didn’t care for the tin foil base card. The lack of rookies is ridiculous for the price an the hits are pretty lousy.The inserts and parallels are ok though. I didn’t get back into the hobby until recently so i’m on the fence about every Panini product especially the brands they took over.

While Certified use to be one of the gold standards in cards, I felt that this was the same old same old. Even with the great rookie crop this product seems stale, if you bought a box 4 years ago it has same look. Need to add something new or make all the parallels alittle less, seems like would have to buy 6 cases to even get a taste of this product. If looking for Luck or Griffin good luck but other products you maybe able to pull one for cheapier. Pass on this

Four hits per box is a nice way to start. This product has a nice feel to it and I like the extended base list. The Elway set would be a fun chase for collectors of him. Nice release!

I think this was one of the most underrated products of football this year. The cards are sharp and crisp with a selection from rookies to vets to HOFers. While I do agree with Brad above to an extent, it’s the same issue with many boxes both Panini and Topps. They obviously can’t put the top players in every box. I purchased a box of Inception this year and got nothing better than a 3 rd rounder. Thats where change is needed with cards. You can’t charge the same price for a box of cards with one having RGlll and one having TJ Graham! That is not fair to the buyer. And it seems that because all these rookies were in the rookie photo shoot that they are given the same treatment from card companies. And this is especially true with higher end products like Triple Threads where I saw so much that was not even close to its worth for the price. Charge for what is in the box, not what may be in the box! I know they would never do this as they would never sell the low end players and make a profit. But something needs to change!

Beautiful cards that really pop. Also thought the inserts were interesting, not only for their appearance but because of the former players offered. Not a huge fan of Elway, but it kept things interesting for this year. Have enjoyed buying this set and will likely add a few more packs before the end of the year and look forward to next years version.

wasnt a big fan this year of certified. the product looked really nice, and love some of the rc designs. the box guarantee is a miss, you should get at least a rc rpa of some sort as your auto for the price, as apposed to a 5th rd guy whos a sticker and never sees the field. just think there should be a better hit for such a price and small amount of packs.
