Nice sketches, Zach! I'm liking Ray Dillons Gollum sketches a LOT. The red pencil bolrog is also really interesting. I haven't seen one of those before.

Would have loved to have bid on this card, but you only ship to N and S America. Why  |

when i posted my listing I could not find the option to list for worldwide delivery...the new listing set up is screwy. I would just shoot the artist a message to see if they will ship..more than likely they will. As for the duplicate Gould sketches, he is offering a trade deal for some artwork. look here http://scoundrelpublishing.com/spart/viewtopic.php?t=1291 |

BUT but but- I'm a CARD collector, not an art collector *lol*
(the above said totally tongue in cheek)- I do appreciate the offer but I'll keep my trips to trade for other cards *hopefully!*

Well I just cracked 6 cases, and here are the highlights: Sean Pence Eowyn...YES!!! 2 color Chandlers (and he only did 50 pack inserted colors....LUCKY!!  Big Blue Eyed Gollum!!! Not to mention some other sweet stuff in these first nine:  I absolutely love the Keith Phillips Aragorn!!! And the Jessica Hickman is awesome as well!!! (as they all are )  And I love the Matthew Goodmanson Aragorn facing down Lurtz!!  Some more pretty sketches:  A couple puzzle cards that need to find the rest of the puzzle pieces  And lastly I need help with a few artists. I belive the gorgeous Aragorn/Arwen is Jim Kyle, but not positive, and the middle one without a sig, I need some help on him for sure  Anyways, unfortunetly I will not be able to keep all of these wonderful cards, so some will hit that evil ebay, and some will get traded for my preciuos Arwen, so feel free to shoot me any offers!!! I will admit my fingers hurt a little from all the packs. One thing though, out of the 8 cases I have opened now, not a single gold foil art card!!!! |

The duplication within artists I could have dealt with- but getting the EXACT SAME SKETCH three times was a bit much. Had I gotten three different Grant Goulds, I would have been happier, but you know, I should have expected it. Topps doesn't ever seem to care about collation - I complained, as I know many dealers did last time with Evo and they brushed everyone off.
I'm still writing another letter. It'll at least make me feel better.
They're gonna tell you to look in the yellow pages for card dealers.  Call them personally and complain when you get the letter. Still might not do any good, but THAT will at least make you feel better speaking with a person. |

OK, my three boxes arrived today. Here I sit inside my office with my door closed. I cracked open one box, and believe me that's all I can do alone without getting in trouble at home.  Anyway, I pulled a Colleen Doran Eowyn and a Jake Myler Orc. The orc is colored and is beautiful. I'm very happy with both sketches, and I hope this doesn't mean the other two boxes I'm staring at suck! At any rate, Jake Myler is one of my favorites from Evolution, so I'm happy I got one of his now. Neither of these cards are up at LOTR SKETCH CARDS, or I'd post the pics. I'll have to take photos and post them this weekend. Didn't get anything else exciting, except for 1000 foil cards and the one per box promised bronze foil. Still, I'm very happy with this box. |

They're gonna tell you to look in the yellow pages for card dealers. I SOOO remember that *lol* It was without a doubt the funniest Customer Service letter I had read - ever. I've not sit down to do anything constructive yet- with Halloween this week, the week seems shorter than usual and I'm feeling time-pressed like nobody's business. Haven't even watched Heroes yet (and it's one of my can't miss shows) but - I will write, and I'll let y'all know what they say |

I always liked Jake Myler too Eve. I love the way he splashes the color on. |

3 boxes bought, here's my breakdown: Nothing but the bronze foils - no gold or parallel about 1 million of all the other foils...didn't count 1 Very Gorgeous Jake Myler Orc sketch 1 Colleen Duron Eowyn 1 Sarah Wilkinson Orc(I'll probably try to trade this one. I have a lot of orcs) 1 Patrick Hamill Uruk Hai(This one's nice) 2 Katie Cook sketches(I see what you mean about collation). However, I think both the Cook sketches are two of her better ones. One is Denother eating a cherry, and one is listed on Marleyeds site, so here's the photo of one that I pulled .  |

Well, 3 cases arrived on Monday! It has taken me this long to "chill" on my pulls. In no way am I disappointed in what artists I have. So many of these that I am completely in love with!! I am though, disappointed in Topps and how these cards were inserted. I wish they were "shuffled" a little more! I would have liked to have had a little more variety in the artists! So...on with the show!! Case #1   Case #2   Case #3 (only opened 4 boxes...other 4 were mailed off)  |

At least you can have a good game of "Snap"  I assume (and hope, as I'm not opening mine until Saturday) that the doubles were not in the same boxes |
