Look in the price guide - a few of the ones from the first set leaked out too!

That's way overpriced though!


This is the one from the first set

Evidently the ARTBOX employees were given 32 total sets as appreciation for their efforts. Some of them, not sensing these were rare as hen's teeth, sold theirs, and seven have been on EBAY. My guess is that few will appear now that the secret is out on the scarcity level...only 32 of each card is just a dozen more than the 18 card issued of the Wonka Golden Ticket cards. You can expect these prices to rise, as it becomes apparent they are modern classics. Thirty two of the character cards, less than Hermione autos in the Hobby boxes, and comparable to the rarest tobacco cards..think T206.

It's a year since Ford Prefect first posted it - so it's just a question of the auction details going out of date and being removed from ebay's database rather than an indication of foul play.

They have been available for a while Two Ends and the prices haven't really done much. I wouldn't say this was something we all need to rush and buy, it's a novelty, that's all.

Greetings.
Thanks to all who have posted thus far, I appreciate the input. As for me I am sending my cards to PSA non-sport authentication-just in case they are truly rare.
