: Just found a TT hobby topps box at my local shop
: ztaylork August 29, 2005, 08:53:08 AM
I recently relocated and this weekend I found a little game shop and they had a sealed box of Two Towers Topps hobby, and the guy said he wanted $50, so after thinking verrrrrryyy longly if it was worth it :) , I forked out the money and ran home and opened it with my wife, to discover.......an Eowyn autograph.  Needless to say I was very excited.  He thinks he has the rest of the case buried somewhere and is going to fish it out, in addition to some other boxes he said hes had for some time.  I can only hope for a FOTR hobby box.

Wow a huge bargain as far as im concerned.....$50 for TT hobby box is crazy, you are so lucky...and considering I just forked out US$150 for an eowyn auto im sooo jealous...and I thought that was a bargain!! so if you sell it you could more than triple your investment $$  haha

$150 for an Eowyn was a pretty good bargain by anyone's standards if you ask me :)

Cards Inc recently had an offer for £60 - a TT Hobby box and the case topper - a Haldir auto - I didn't go for it but I did think about it a bit :)

Congratulations Zach on your great "find" and your even greater "pull". ;D  I hope the shop owner can locate that case for you. ;)

I was looking at the Y.S. price guide for Peter Jackson autos. I see some on ebay but  :o :o :o WOW! Are they overprived or what?

Yup... especially as the TT ones are better and PJ doesn't look constipated in the picture on those ones :rofl:

I saw one was like 2200 or so.

Yes - that card is that price simply because of the odds, you can get a Two Towers Peter Jackson for much less, it's not so rare but it's a better picture too ;)
