The Yak Shack Forum

I became the Info from 2 other Boards and a few Newsmails that the Harry Potter - Daniel Radcliffe Auto is confirmed.

Can anybody confirm that?  ;D

So many exciting news today. Great !!!

Well I haven't had it confirmed but it was one of the rumours!

Now you have heard that one you are all going to find the 3rd one a bit dissappointing as it's a repeat signer  ???

One of the rumours. Hmmm. Why are they waiting so long for confirming it?

I get the info as a confirmed Info from 2 Collector Mailinglists, the NSU Board and 2 collectors from Overseas.

 ??? ???

So as far as the third signer, I have heard Emma Watson.  Is Hermione the repeat signer being referred to?

Maybe we get another GREAT "Fred" Autograph, but this time he signed 1500 Cards  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

So are we dancing around these "rumors"?

Has anyone really confirmed the Harry auto?

And that there will be a repeat signer (but a good repeat AND is it Hermione)?

Or is this all speculation?  

OK that was the last time i post infos. I only ask in the future  :'(

Eh?

Don't feel like that T&F - but it's just I haven't had it confirmed yet and I don't want you all coming back to me and complaining there's no Harry in your cases ;)

Why did i the info via newsletter and nobody else?

 :'(

Take a look at the nsu board there was the info postet too.

True, true but they only read it on a resellers list!

In all probability it's true though!

I am voting for posting rumours. ;)

I think, if someone hear such infos, which are maybe or likely true, but not confirmed, the infos should be posted. Why not???

Take it easy T & F, maybe you are misunderstanding something :o

I certainly am not trying to tell you not to post such info, I would rather have some one post it than not post it.  I am sure there are others on the board who are already aware of the info and are trying to confirm that themselves.

Any knowledge or information is always welcome, if you don't understand posts due to language barriers don't take it as a personal attack (its most likely not).  I haven't seen any member of this board ever personally bash anyones posts.  This is not NSU where everyone is overly sensitive and critical of information.  Besides you would have to answer to Roz and the Yak king if you did.

So if you didn't understand my post it was simply a request for more posters to confirm they had heard the same rumor (or facts) and as all card companies will say inserts are always subject to change!   I may try to get two more cases if Harry is signing for the set and also another Hermione.

No yellow cards please
Beckham

I thought if several people say it is confirmed that Harry signs, this would be worth a post.

I do`nt want to start more rumors

This is going to be a good set without the Harry auto.  Justing seeing the prop cards it already looks exciting!

So harry auto would just be a bonus - and a second Hermione.   But then again why would they have a second Hermione for the update when she already signed for the original????

I would think if she signed again they would wait til the next movie set.

Is there still the possibility of a dual auto?

I would prefer a "Fred and George" Dual Auto  ;D  

What should i do with another Hermione? Totaly useless  ::)

OK,
I was thinking about the auto's if there are potientially 14 auto's and lets assume they double the production run of cases to 1,000 cases (10,000 boxes) and the auto's fall 2 per case as rumored...............................................................................then there would be a total of 2,000 auto's among the 14 signers ((Of course this is all rough math so math experts leave me be on this)).

So it would stand to reason about 150 signed cards per signer ??? :o ???

Somewhere I read the guess was there were only 75 hermiones signed for the first release of 500 cases.

So all the auto's will be as rare as the hermione (in respect to the cases produced).  
Is this making sense?
Is my logic off?

There were only an estimated 75 Hermione autos with the first set.  For those of us who were not one of the lucky few, it'll be nice to have another chance at getting one.

I think I saw that posted on a checklist site

I think it is called jeff allenders house of checklists or something like that and it has approximate numbers of the auto runs posted...... of course I could be wrong some other members would probably be able to tell you more accurately.

about 150 signed cards per signer sounds right.

in POA we have

Fred and George Weasley (both limited to 500)
Neville Longbottom (limited to 425)
Ginny Weasley (limited to 425)
Cornelius Fudge (limited to 375)
Madam Rosmerta Redemption (limited to 300)
Remus Lupin (limited to 200)
Albus Dumbledore (limited to 150)
Sirus Black (limited to 125)
Hermione Granger (limited to 75)

thats a total of 3075 in 5000 Boxes.

Hmm 4 more cards... lets say 750 Cards and 10000 Boxes

tahts a total of 3825 in 10000

Beckham, here's the checklist:

Arghh today is not my day. WHY did i have a different checklist  ??? ??? ??? ??? ???   :-[


Could it be that the checklist on the link you postet is WITHOUT the "Hot Boxes" ? ONLY 50 Hermiones and 25 of them in "hot boxes"????? Cant believe that

But he wrote "Autograph numbers are approximate, based on market "scarcity.""

Don't fret, T&F! :)  I think there's more than one checklist.  Artbox did not release the statistics about the number of autos produced, so collectors have had to guess how many were made.  It was easier with the props and costumes, since the numbers are on the backs.

I read somewhere that Gary Oldman was asked at the US POA premiere how many auto cards he had signed.  He gave a figure around 300.  Either he was wrong, or Artbox held back many of them.

I asked David Thewlis how many he signed and he said 300 and asked Matthew Lewis and he said 600

Just to aid you all a little I have just received my Rosmerta Redemptions back and each one comes with a numbered sheet which matches the number of autos
At this point only 120 autos have been redeemed so they are not as plentiful as everyone may think!

It's interesting that all of these figures are higher than stated on the checklists.  Why would Artbox hold back so many, say one-third of a particular auto?  They couldn't have expected to replace that many damaged cards.

Hmm interesting stuff MPC - I sent off my autos a wee while back so I'll post how many more they have redeemed since yours ... probably none  ;)

Can I ask MPC what was the highest number you got? Was it 120? My letter was printed the 13th ofOctober and they were then up to 134

I received my redemption end of Mai and there was NO number on the letter  ??? ??? ??? ??? ???

some additional info maybe harry auto will be a redemption card?? copied from an email I received from a ebay seller....pretty reliable

"Nice to hear back from you. I expect I'll be hearing from others over the
next few days.
Well, as expected, Artbox raised their price. But, still less than most
other Manufacturers.
I have 2 cases on ebay right now for $675 each + $10 S&H if paid for by
tomorrow. or $25 S&H if paid after that. Given the news I got this morning.
I'm going to have to go back and update my pricing on ebay for the boxes
and cases.
Anyway, at the moment, I can only offer you one case for $650 delivered.
I can send you a paypal invoice once the site is back up.
Oh yeah, I have some really great news for you. But, you probably already
know. Ron Weasley (Rupert Grint) is signing. Autos are already back and in
hand. and.....so is Daniel Ratcliffe. However, his autos are not back yet.

I'll keep you posted. This product should sell like hot cakes!!"

FYI everyone!

It's just under the date on the top right hand side

There it is.... #8  ;)

Cool - you were early - what date was that can I ask?

I sent in the redemption directly after receipt of my boxes at the beginning of May. After 2 weeks (End of May) the autograph came

 ;D I already got the DVD of Harry potter and the prisoner of azkaban. I was in china about four weeks ago and they have lots of DVDs that arent suposed to be out yet

I know  ;) That was a joke  ;D

sorry, sometimes its hard to tell when people are joking on these boards  :D

I say we create a sarcasm emoticon ;)

(No I was not being sarcastic! ;D)
