congrats on 10K+ Roz 

good luck! hope you get some great pulls. Not easy to come across sealed cases of the older sets nowadays.

I received a box for my birthday.

Box #5658
BT2 Snape
R1, 2, 3, 5 7
Lavender Brown auto
C2 Slughorn tie 118/240

Happy belated Birthday Cindy!

The dates for next years Con including the preview night is 21st - 25th July 2010. The price has gone up to $100 for an all inclusive 5 days. I've already paid 

BTW, the thread should read STINKS not SUCKS (although it does apply to the last film  )

oooops! sorry. Thanks for catching my error & thanks to Cindy for correcting    I'm going again next year too, which will make 6 years straight. My friends think that I'm insane but I have lots of fun (sans the rude people and the lines).

Very nice cards Bryan!

Not only a variant but also number 1! Congratulations. Good luck... it's very tempting

Thanks Roz.  There's one up on eBay w/ "POT" but they want a bit more $$$$.  Kay Funto says hello & hope you make it out one year 

I queued for 6 hours and was fairly near the front. This still put me gazillienth in the line for the Artbox goodies. Got in at 5.45pm. Artbox started selling at 7.00pm. If anyone knows why, please let me know.

they didn't entirely set up their booth/merch in time so it delayed selling the goody bags on preview night.

Hi everyone - I survived another Comic-Con and just got home yesterday.  This year's Artbox Harry Potter goody bag was a duffle bag.

Anyway, I have a pretty unique & special card from my bag.  It's one of the numbered to 33 prop cards that they made from the "Potter Sucks" buttons from GOF.  Mine is #1 of 33 and has the letters "TER" from Harry's last name. I'm hoping to get around $1,000 for it but willing to hear "reasonable" offers.

I was going to put it up on eBay but thought I'd offer it here first for a few days.

Thanks all,

Bowman

hey does anyone know which autos are (or will soon be) available for redemption?  I'm asking cause I'll withhold sending mine in if they aren't available.  Thanks.

Another question. Anyone else pull a filmcard with the cells from before the trailer : "This film has been rated..."? What do you think of that? I pulled these cells, but can we really consider these a part of the trailer?

I got 2 that look like previews or part of trailer.  not what I would really expect as a film cell but I guess technically it is.

I'll post 2nd case results later.

I opened 3 random packs at the store and got lucky. pulled both inserts, C8 Gryffindor student costume and P11 Advanced Potions Making Book covers prop (and R2 puzzle card to boot).  I'll post my case results as soon as I open and compile.

My cases have been pretty brutal to me. 4 opened, and I have not hit one of the big three. Oh well.

Did pull this. It is going on evilbay very soon to recoup a little $ to put towards securing at least one of the big 3 autos.

that's a sweet card.  Nice pull!

picking mine up later today. wish me luck 

congrats Jeff. nice Hermione pull. great case!

Ah, you lucky guys!  I'm going to be so mad if they have SDCC exclusive cards like that Draco auto card from 08. 
But then again, I'd never be able to afford a plane ticket from Hong Kong to California.

(First post here but I've been lurking for a long time before I joined~ (: )
