Sorcerer's Stone set; odds, pictures and box/case breakdowns

I think by Dud box that she means one box had no special inserts in it at all.  But she did say the case was worth it, and made up for it.  Would just suck if you ordered only a box or two and got the one with nothing in it.

[Roz]

Dud as in - no prop, no costume, no auto and no film card, I think it had a box topper and foils as normal, but that's not anything to write home... or indeed to write to the forum about!

[beckham1]

I had a box with two box toppers    You will never top that.

I was assuming you meant nothing in the dud box, (just thought I would ask) but I would also consider one with only a film cell card a dud, but that may be just me.

[Roz]

Well I wouldn't be over the moon with a box with just a film cell in, but at least it's SOMETHING

[rns91294]

I agree!!  I would rather get something than nothing any day

My first ever case and I am sooooo happy.  I got exactly the autograph I wanted (Lesley Phillips) and Nevilles PJ's  .  I don't even mind that I got two Restricted Library books as they are consecutive numbers.  I don't see this so much as a duplicate, more a very small library 

[grecopa]

Wow, nice pulls everyone!   Hey, Gimli-if you're going to put some of the Wizard candy on eBay, make sure you post a link.

[rns91294]

Same with the wand boxes!

[blackcat20]

Box 3 (last of my share of the case)

Box #7390/8000

BT1 (i think, need to double check)
various foils

Practice Broom prop361/450

that is one thick card! dont know where Im going to put it... 

Anyways, one more box to open, but from another case...hopefully Ill actually get a card that I want... 

[Roz]

Practice Broom prop361/450

that is one thick card! dont know where Im going to put it...

Ha hee - wait til you see Fluffy!

[blackcat20]

Box 4

31471/8000

BT1 again

various foils

Seamus auto card

Daily prophet 444/733 (finally a card that I really wanted, has the edges of some curly writing peeking in around the sides of the swatch..)

So overall, not too bad, out of 4 boxes:
3 autos
2 props
2 costumes

There are still a few cards that I would like so Ill start a topic in the other thread...

[allender]

Okay, here's my four boxes. Somewhat "below average" again, which is why I avoided case buy(s) this time; figured I would be luckier in the aftermarket because only a case or two can't get you very close to nirvanna! No interesting variants to scan, sorry!

Box 4641/8000
R1,R2,R3,R6,R8
BT1
1 auto - John Cleese
1 costume - Female Hogwarts Students 206/510
Base sets: 2 complete + 3 extra cards

Box 3844/8000
R2,R4,R5,R7,R8
BT2
1 prop - Fluffy's Fur 194/700 (pack by itself)
1 cel - Wizard's Chess
Base sets: short 3 cards for 2 complete sets, no extras

Box 4066/8000
R2,R4,R5,R7,R8
BT2
1 prop - Practice Broom 424/450 (pack with 1 regular card)
Base sets: short 6 cards for 2 complete sets, 6 extras


Box 1592/8000
R1,R3,R5,R7,R9
BT4
1 prop - Cake Box 358/490 (pack with 5 regular cards)
Base sets: 2 complete sets with 3 extras

So, no dud boxes but only averaging 1.5 high-chase per box. I can't complain too much, but I am disappointed that all four of my props and costumes are "featureless"!  I have to satisfy myself with statistics, instead of "gee whiz, lookatthis!" 

[Tea_and_Fruit]

Hey but you got a John Cleese Auto. Thats a card someone like me would kill someone like you 

[Tower]

I've still none. After 4 cases.  :'(

[allender]

Hey but you got a John Cleese Auto. Thats a card someone like me would kill someone like you 

Sorry 'bout that. Talk to Chris, he got three out of 109 boxes. And Cleese signed for the Avengers Definitive 2 series too.

It's looking like the Cleese, Fearon, Herdman, and Hurt autos are showing up at a rate that hints at about 250 of each signed. My next-scarcest pull was an x/450, so I still feel justified in being slightly disappointed.

[Tea_and_Fruit]

I still wait for my boxes. So who knows maybe i have luck 

[rns91294]

I have two to open tonight, but my internet is down at home, so you will all need to wait until Sunday for my results, when I can borrow my Mother's computer....

[SrisonS]
