Mostly through negative Karma... FTY sends me negative karma... and that's why I get dud boxes - isn't that right Jo?

Mwahahaha! Then I teleport the Hermione autos from Roz's boxes to mine! She has discovered my plan! Roll Eyes

Jules I really have no idea why you are so reluctant to come to Collectormania - Adam would have had a heart attack at the last one it was so Star Wars soaked!

I don't think my bank balance could take the strain Roz!! Undecided
I'm sure Adam would ADORE going but the pester-power from him would be too much and I hate to disappoint him ....
Mind you, I've a birthday creeping up in a few week's time and I keep getting asked 'what do you want?' LOL ...  Roll Eyes
*sighs* I dunno Roz .... just to make it more awkward, it looks like I've a house to get cleared in the coming weeks too which I'm not particularly looking forward to doing ...  Sad

I wish Malfoy was there.... Tom is probably one of my very fav. too. But no luck. Wish I was in the UK.... they make so many appearance there. It's far and few that they even make it to the US.

I do have a Costume card question..... how much should I pay for a Hermoine sweater card? or her trouser pants? There's so many of her costume that I don't know which one is more valuable. Can anyone help?

if you check out the price guide it will give you the differances in the highest and lowest the cards have been sold for.
i think mainly it depends on the one that you want the most.


At least in the US you get them there I have known of only 1 harry potter star to come to Perth Australia and that was Maggie Smith
I do have her Autograph on one of my books and the kids got thier books signed  and
to have thier photo taken with her

thanks Anna....  I was very lucky that day. James leaned over to the guy who collects the money and said something to him and when I passed him he just waved me to pass. So I didn't pay for a single auto. They were just so very nice. I felt really lucky that day.

I think I asked this somewhere else but where do I get a value pricing thingy?

As of right now, the most coveted Hermione costume from the update set is her Pink Top.  The "dirty" variants will usually cost you more for it and some Tops also have seam stitches.  The Wooly Sweater is the next most valuable one.  I have only seen one variant of the sweater - it had stitches in the swatch.  The Trousers are the least valuable of the three costumes.  The variant for the trousers has a seam in the swatch.  Although the print run of the Sweater and Trousers are the same, the Sweater appears to be more valuable.

The most current prices are in the price guide (mcgonagall has already directed you there).  Also, the variants prices are tallied separate from the common cards.

Well it arrived today with a few lovely promos... thanks Jobe! Cheesy

Pulled a George costume (1041/1300) from the 15th pack and thought - bugger, I knew this would happen, so I resigned myself to opening the final 9 packs in the hope of getting a foil or something... then in the 2nd last pack...

A matching Fred Weasley auto! Grin My first Potter autograph!

Well, it made up for the costume a bit Cheesy

Thanks - I have become addicted to pack opening now.

*hands twitch*

Its so much fun cutting open the top and peering inside to see if there is a prop/costume and then pulling it out to search for an auto!

Bring on SS and GoF eh? Wink

I'd advise to save up for Sorcerers Stone or even Goblet of Fire... you would get 3 boxes of that for 1 box of PoA original! I had a pretty nice box (sure I lost a bit of money, but I thought the excitement was worth it!!!) but I know duds are out there...
