haha Ya it was a very lucky pull - Bought just a few packs of it too!...guy at the store was VERY upset that a customer pulled it and not himself!! I think Emma does sell too high too...that card that just ended was VERY VERY high - $423 is VERY high! But if you like Emma, than it is worth it, especially her "rookie" auto! Personally I think that some of the others like the dumbledore auto should go higher than it does! - I think he is a wonderful actor!...Those are very nice cards you have...you must be quite the collector!...Do you know who is signing for goblet of fire update set?

Do you know who is signing for goblet of fire update set? I probably should but I don't  There is a whole topic with all the gossip on here and I am sure there is a list of the ones that have been announced so far. They obviously haven't got me excited though or I would have remembered  I am pretty sure Daniel is signing again and I hope Warwick Davis This is a bit of a running joke on the Shack as people think he has signed too many cards but I simply love collecting them so the more the merrier  I do think though that there is a massive difference between sports and non sports cards. The 'rooky' factor just doesn't come into it. Collectors go for characters and/or specific actors but not necessarily which ones were signed first, probably because by the time someone is in a film they are already famous (I assume with rooky cards the sportsperson could go either way - be really good or bum out). |

Ya davis has signed a ton! I like your point about rookies - cuz I collect sports cards too and the rookies can either become good or bum out like you said...Also, I hear that Emma won't sign again for another card series...that is a disappointment - Now I think that all the watson cards will skyrocket in value!!...as I think you can tell, i am a big emma fan...

All auctions are entered by volunteers and verified before they hit the guide so they can sometimes take a day or two  . |

Agreed on the Dudley Dursley auto Sharon - it's another fab sig!  Quite a few of us are based in the UK Bernie (I am) but we have members from the US, Australia and Europe (Holland and Germany) too, so there's usually someone logged in no matter what time you drop by! Yep, there's at least one other sports card collector on here - beckham1 (Dave) collects baseball and golf cards (I think) ... Dave, you'll have to shout out if I've got that completely wrong ... apologies if I have!!  I'm not too sure who else would count themselves in with Dave on collecting sports cards, the majority on here collect Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter and a few other sets along the way too! It doesn't matter really, as we all appreciate a good card when we see it even if we aren't that interested in the subject matter! Congrats on pulling an Emma auto btw - EXCELLENT! Whereabouts on the globe are you based then Bernie ... if you don't mind me asking? You don't have to be specific either ... the country will do just fine! |

Ya I was SO excited about the Emma Watson pull! - Pull of a lifetime for my non sports card collection. What do you think about the watson card that just was bought on ebay for $420ish!?...thats crazy, but the card is AMAZING, so worth it if ur a true fan!!...pardon me, but i forget if you said you have any autos from HP?...i love them!..

Yep I have a number of HP autos from the various sets and I agree, they're super cards! You were SO fortuante to pull that particular card you know ... so many people tried to get it in the boxes and cases they bought and didn't get one.  That's was a nice card that sold just recently, but I think you'll find that because of their relative rarity, most people would be happy to get any auto card of hers and not necessarly the one with the nicest example of her signature on it. In an ideal world all the autos would much the same high standard of signing (ie. centering on the card and even formation of the signature etc) but we both know that doesn't happen often so a compromise has to be reached to a certain extent. I'm happy with both my Hermione autos and grateful I've been able to get both of them! Dave is over in the US like you Bernie and loves his sportcards as much if not more than his non-sports card collection! Dave - please correct me if I'm wrong won't you? |

WoW you have both the emma watson POA and POA UPDATE auto?! That is so lucky! You pull them or buy them? If you bought them, do you mind me asking what you payed for them? Do you have any extras or the triple auto? , very much interested in obtaining the Update auto of watson and the triple!...Also I was very lucky considerin a box of the original POA set is SO expensive... |

My collection of sports cards consist of some baseball cards about 15% I have some really nice high end cards including a Babe Ruth jersey which I love. About 5% basketball cards nothing to exciting in my collection just what I have pulled out of the occasional box. About 25% of my collection is Golf, I have a few Tiger Auto's and Shirt cards as well as some other pretty nice ones, of course the Tigers are worth the most. The rest of my sports card collection consists of Hockey cards which are my favorite to collect, most are pack pulled. The only cards I have bought are Red Wings as that is my team and being originally from Michigan is my home team. Steve Yzerman being my favorite athlete of all time.
In the last year + my focus has been nonsport cards though as what I like about nonsport vs sports cards are that if you buy a box of Harry Potter you are going to get well Harry Potter cards. On the flip side if you collect Red Wings cards (like me) your odds of getting a nice Red Wing card (other than base cards) is probably 1 in 10 boxes. That is what has attracted me to nonsports cards I can get LOTR cards by buying a LOTR box not a bad thing IMO.
