That is assuming they have them at $100! They are selling ROTK and ROTKU at $100 ATM and the LOTR portfolios at $80 (the limited to 1000 ones) which is a great price! I got an email today, jason said he was getting the set in but had not decided on prices yet. Did he say anything more about it to you blackcat?

Nope, no word on prices. But hopefully they will be as reasonable as usual. He's a really nice guy, spent ages trying to track down TT hobby boxes for me, though unfortunately without any luck  Its cost me about $230 to get 2 boxes from overseas, so if it works out to be anything similar, I'll be happy.

From the rumours I have been reading - and I don't know if this will come off. They have got so many insert cards for this set - reports say 36 - that they may put in 2 per box. I hope that's not guaranteed 2 per box as that often ruins sets but it would be an improvement on the 1.5 average from last time... ... or in my case about 0.8  That would be interesting, and would mean with what I have bought I might go a long way towards a master set.... but I'll be needing all you guys to trade with so don't go away

Aha! So it's not YOUR bank manager you'll be praying to. Well - no exceptions we expect a case breakdown on the morning of the 25th  ... oh ok since it's Christmas, no later than midnight on the 26th

Wow gimli that is a lot. Are you a private collector or do you own a store or sell boxes via ebay. We may have to all help you open all those boxes!  How many cases of HP POA first did you get?

That's not encouraging - 7 cases and no full set. You did hit some good buy it nows as well! So what shall I do as soon as I get my boxes... pile them up and see if they are as tall as me? They will promptly collapse in a heap and I'll be selling "slightly seconds" cards to you all

I wonder how heavy 25 cases is I don't think they will fit in one box and as for seconds i will buy all your slightly second boxes for half price

LOL - I also have gone overboard on case buying! But prior to now I have never opened more than 8 boxes... ever (1 ROTK, 2 ROTKU and 5 HP PoA)...
How on earth am I going to cope with all this base set sorting - Chris Chidgey laughed heartily at the way I was doing it at the weekend during Collectormania

Feel free to send some boxes of cards you need sorted over this way, I will have plenty of spare time when university finishes in between waiting for the LOTR exhibition and watching ROTK EE for the 1000th time
