Thanks for the info CJD, put me down immediately for the Maurauders Map prop card

Wicked stuff

That's Olly4Kay right?

I had heard Hagrid's tie might be MPC's special exclusive card but maybe not!

Hmm what will the marauders map be? It will probably be blank parchment or it will be blue - remember this?



So perhaps it has bits of green in it

i want hagrid ties please please please  I love hagrid

The Marauder's Map and the wanted poster?  I don't know whether to jump for joy or go cry in the corner.  I don't think my bank account will ever recover!  Now to decide whether it's better to buy more boxes or save my money to bid on those two cards.

[Roz]

If the first set is anything to go by then get boxes! If the box price stays low you can open them and try your luck. If they go up you could sell your boxes and get the cards you wanted!

[ferdinand_the_yak]

Anyone know if MPC is still taking pre-sell orders? Or anywhere else at all?

[Roz]

I think so

I just rang him, he has 4 cases left that he has allocated to pre-orders, so if you email today I think you should be able to get some boxes. I think he would like the money in advance though, by the end of this month!

But Jo, if these props come off and that's what they get then there is a distinct possibility this set is going to become as expensive as the last set! So I'd buy boxes at pre-order price if you can!

But for you (since you have to import anyway) you should email potomac and see if they have decided a price and date they will be taking pre-orders as you may only have to pay one lot of shipping (as of course MPC's price has already had to pay UK import taxes and shipping over from the states! But it's still not a bad price. His price wasn't far off Potomac's price (from last time) and I do know Cards's Inc's retail prices (for standard non MPC wholesale buyers) and I don't know how MPC is doing it

So if you only order one box from MPC I would do so! Just so you get a base set and a chance at a rare card

[Roz]

Huh - I just checked my inbox and I had that info from darren too

 :'(

Ahh well, can't always be first at everything but we did also get this info

Every 2 Cases purchased by Cards Inc Customers will recieve an exclusive UK
Costume Card.

Every Case of 6 Binders will recieve a red promo card set

(yay - I had some secrets for Cards Inc ppl)

I can't wait for the official list to come out on these!!!

[ztaylork]

November 3rd is way to far away!!!  I am excited to see who the 10 signers are and what the 25 case incentive card is this time!!!  Should be another golden set!!!

[Roz]

Agreed there Zach

But we mustn't forget the Hippogriff feather we heard about before!

I fear that will be the "one for 25 cases" prop giveaway - and actually much more exciting than a peartree card  

[kbmum]

I read somewhere (and now I can't find the post) that there will be 10,000 boxes.  If this is true, does this mean that the odds of finding a prop/auto/costume in a box will be worse than with the first set that had a run of 5,000?  

[Roz]

As yet I have no idea what this will mean!

But I hope they produce lots of props and things to make up for it but still have SOME rare and cool ones  

[mcgonagall]

I still want hagrids ties I think of all of the prop costume and auto cards
( unless there is a hagrid auto ) It is the one card that I want ( unless there is something mcgonagall )
See i don't really want that much  

[samwise16]

i should get saving    

[saruman]

as must i and with the new LOTR set aswell ,i really shall be so poor and living in a car but have loads of cards so i will be happy

[Tower]

I asked Artbox (i have sent an email) how many Hobby Boxes will be produced this time and a few minutes ago, i got an answer.

The Customer Service sent me this email:
"We do not have a number set yet, but will be confirmed mid October."

Hmmm.  

[saruman]

at least they sent a reply though,which was good as they often don't

[ztaylork]

I got the same reply as you did Tower.  I did have a rep call me yesterday and gave me some numbers for distributors, and he told me that I better order early as he expected to sell out way in advance.
