Oooh, our friend kyo410 is selling 3 master sets of LOTR FOTR, TT and ROTK on ebay... What a collection!

Anyone want to go halves with me on the FOTR set?  

[Harbottle]

Must be to pay for all those potter cards! I don't usually sell and had to sell an Elrond FOTR myself. Went for a measly £155 - someone got a bargain! Good on 'em, even though it hurts!

lol was that yours? i was considering bidding myself  

[Harbottle]

Roz, I've just put a Legolas Fotr but it doesn't seemed to have appeared? Do listings lag on being put on the system sometimes? It should appear under legolas auto, legolas card or legolas autograph. I can't seem to find it! Bloody ebay!

[Harbottle]

It's appeared

[Roz]

Good good - sorry I was out at a film!

Has anyone realized that the Weasley quiditch (SP) costume card to 1300 will contain some cards that either are all yellow or have red & Yellow.  

It is actually his from his name and number on the back of the Robe.  If anyone wants to see a picture of the costume it was taken from I can try to scan it?

It was pictured in an article in nonsports collector magazine this month.  Clearly shows name and number in yellow on the back of the robe.

Hmmm... case of confusion with Harry and Ron costumes? False advertising, but might be unintentional.

Seeing as Harry is 5x more common than Ron, I hope the buyer has done some research!

[Roz]

Huh? No I think that's the Harry Costume limited to 100. There is an identical looking card limited to 500!

Ron also has a "limited to 100" card (inserted in packs) and a "limited to 500" card (given to UK dealers)

It's all become too confusing

[ferdinand_the_yak]

Ooo-er, slapped wrists for me, huh?   I didn't even know that the 100 Harry card existed, as it looks exactly the same as the limited to 500. Whats the point really if they look exactly the same?

I got my Harry costume today (117/750), I don't know what it is like compared to LOTR memorabilia cards, but thinner than i thought it would be. Much cheaper, but exact same material - go figure. So basically we are paying $100 extra for the card it is printed on? Hmmm... please explain?

[Roz]

it looks exactly the same as the limited to 500. Whats the point really if they look exactly the same?

Good point! There is no point in having them both really- if you collect only "pack pulled" cards rather than dealer incentives it means you have to fork out the extra money for no reason!

So basically we are paying $100 extra for the card it is printed on? Hmmm... please explain?

Another unanswerable question (you are on top form today FTY). I've collected a Harry Robe and a Hermione Robe so far (the 750 one and 900 ones) until the Ron robe is properly distributed to all UK dealers as they have been promised then I won't get a ron robe, but there might be one in the next set

$511 US for that /100 Harry Potter costume card. Insane. I have never seen a costume card reach those prices before! I have rarely even seen an autograph card reach those prices before, exception FOTR Merry, FOTR Legolas and a memorable incident... TT Legolas  

Oh and I think I saw one Hermione autograph top $500 as well

[ferdinand_the_yak]

Please, please, please tell me no-one will bid on this auction... the autographs here look terrible! As for the secondhand COA

'Eliza Wood' and Orli's sig... Since when does OB do a loopy B like that and Eliza's E does not look like that. don't even get me started on Cate, Liv and JRD. NOt saying the seller isn't well intentioned, but I think they may have well been conned.
