Are Brazil rare or something, or is just my luck? Im finished most teams, and those I havent finished are only 1/2 away from completion, except Brazil who I still need 5 of. I only remember getting 1 double too and that was Kaka.

gibson

some players on brazil seem to be a bit rare, only seen Adriano once and Kaka twice

Hi lads,

I see many of you are havining trouble swapping the real stickers and I have had an idea. If you guys wish you can send your swaps to me and i will sort through them and match whatever you need.

You can pm me for the address and ill let you know what to do. This doesn't cost by the way

Ah no it was just an idea. I keep reading here about guys having stickers and nobody to swap with. My idea was if say you had 20 stickers to swap you could post them to me. You would include a list of about 20 or 30 you would like and a stamped self addressed envelope. I would then send you back 20 that you need. That is the theory, if it would work is another thing.

Yeah they must be. I'm finished every other team except france(from which i only need

henry

) but I still need like 4 from Brazil. And Kaka is the only Brazilian I ever seem to get in the packets.

Decided to have a go at the real one as well as the online one. Didnt realise the online one has less players to collect :mad: they should've done the full squad like in the real version.

Went into a centra but all the stickers they had were some other sticker album, not even sure if it was World Cup, there seemed to be 3 different types but no Panini are they hard to get in newsagents or something! :eek:

I've had no problem getting them in any Centra, the on beside me is even giving the album away free now when you buy a pack of stickers.

someone actually gave me the album so that was part one done... i also had Drogba, Ferdinand and Pieenar as starter stickers only 3 so a lllloooonnnnggg
way to go lol

Yeah Drogba, Torres, Masch, Pienaar, Ferdinand and Essein all come with the album. Which is really annoying when you get one of them in a pack as there's no-one to swap with as everyone has them..

have you been buying all these is newsagents or did you send away for some?

how much does each packet cost?

gibson wrote: »

I've seen it range from 57c to 80c

gibson

Well Ive a hell of a way to go since I only started so ill buy anyones swaps that they really dont want or dont need to swap

where were people buying the sticker album in the first place if it didnt come free? i read somewhere you got the album and 3 packs free?

hitman79

Stickers are costing me beween 60c and 80c. When i see them for 60c i buy about 10 packs :mad: No point in buying stickers off people yet Gibson..Wait til you have swaps and then swap them. Think i've got rid of over 40 swaps in the last 2 days

true but it was also a way of avoiding the inevitable embarrassment of buying them in the newsagent

Meh, I was thinking this the first time I went in, reckoning it was going to be embarrassing. But fúck it tbf, I decided I didn't really care what the bloke working in Centra thought of me.

Ouch sounds like a lot of swaps already...think i got about 60 swaps with about 300 in the album but have posted out a few swaps today. You could end up with 100's of swaps trying to finish it

So there's 640 stickers and 5 per pack, that's 128 packets minimum to fill the album. Fook, that's a fair bit. I'd want to buy that many packets straight off and then try swapping

Jaysus that works out at a minumum of 90 euro to finish the album

Around 70c is the average price...anyone knows where i can get them much cheaper let me know and i'll buy in bulk

Yeah true, there's about 6 of us doing it though so we can swap about a bit and if someone needs something to finish it out and someone has it I don't think there will be huge arguments over them giving it to them.

See Frisbee's post on page 18 about some newsagent giving it away free.

Frisbee

Centra in Templeogue village gave me a free book when I bought a few packs last Friday.

gibson

Well Im fully into now bought an album and 26 packs in Easons in town packs are 67cent by the way, 2 cent cheaper than my local newsagent lol

going to enjoy the sun then open all 26, its like being 12 over all over again :rolleyes::D

DaveH

If anyone is interested in swapping please PM me with the stickers you have to swap. I pm back mine.
Have swapped with two guys from boards and makes a big difference to the book!!

hitman79

Cant beat having 8 packs to open and 22 swaps after arriving in the post from a fellow boardsie

Pity the 8 packs contained 15 swaps but still have around 350 stickers in the album!!

ShaneU

just got Walcott

Should we set up a tread where everyone lists their swaps? I've swapped 50 stickers via post with fellow boards users in the last few days and its the best way of filling the album quickly imo
