So...what's my card worth?

[rubbercarp]

0P63 is the most over priced and expensive of those promos.

You can only obtain them via ebay or someone willing to trade thats probably in dire need of cash or has a spare.

What was 0P63 released for?

[Gil-Estel]

Online tournament it was if I am correct...

[ununtrium]

That is true and they are truly expensive, but because of their scarcity it really depends on who is in the market for one. Prices have varied from $60 to $200 for a copy. This applies to more or less all of the online promos.

[AMFSOOK]

Well in fairness they were released in different orders to that of their numbers.

If you entered the online tournament you didnt just get all of the promos sent to you as a pack.

Which is why 0P63 Arwen was the harder to find for collectors - as it was given out to the least amount of people then the previous tournament cards.

However the exact amount of cards printed compared to mailed out is unknown. Ive been given estimates by my mate that worked for decipher but a lot of cards were never mailed and was such destroyed.

I don't think this is accurate.  I played Online at the time, and each card was available as a promotion for a week or month ( I forget which).  So the number released depends on what week or month had the most players, and no one knows that for sure.

From my experience (and I had like 30 of each card at one point,except Gandalf) Arwen, along with Boromir, were the most readily available at the time.  Arwen seems rarer because she is far and away the most popular of the set.  I guess everyone wants that one, and no one wants to get rid of one!  Gandalf and Eomer seemed the rarest.

I think Eomer was the last released and interest in the game had died down tremendously at that point due to Decipher's problems.  And as for Gandalf, for some reason I only had 8, so for whatever reason compelled me to play enough to get the others, it did not apply to Gandalf.

[AMFSOOK]

That is how i was trying to explain it Mako, just not in those exact words.

You are correct that each card was just as easily available as the rest - but from the info i was given from an ex decipher employee was that Arwen was the rare'er of them. That may have possibly been due to the fact too that she was the most popular to have in a deck where as the other cards had much stronger versions in earlier sets.

Which ment that people trying to find Arwen became a lot harder as indeed - no one wanted to sell or trade her, in comparison to the others which were not as popular to keep in your deck.

I have a foil rare ring for Return of the King. I think it's 7R1, the green grass ring.
Any idea what it should be worth?

The One Ring, Such a Weight to Carry (7R2). I bought mine from MuadDib for just over $30 via eBay. $32 and shipping, if I remember correctly. There is currently one with a Buy It Now on eBay for $30; however, I would not recommend purchasing from aneythang55 (the seller) due to deceptive trading practices.

whoa - what do you mean deceptive trading practices, ket? i just bought a lot from him last week.

[ket_the_jet]

i just bought a lot from him last week.

It is a her. It's kind of a long story. I had purchased from her many times before and built a solid buyer-seller rapport. She also purchased some of my cards on eBay as well.

So the obvious next step was trading. She asked if I had other cards for sale and said that she had some that I was looking for (like I said, we had exchanged lists before). I made an offer after a few e-mails of discussing haves and wants and how I was only interested in mint, English foils, etc.

She accepted the offer that I had proposed; however, when I looked back in the e-mail history, she had altered the cards that she was going to send. I mentioned this to her and said, "I can understand that you would remove cards from your side of the deal, but I would probably have to even the deal out by removing a card or two." Of course, she didn't appreciate this thought and got kind of belligerent.

Either way, come to find out, the cards she would be sending me were not mint, so I said that I was uninterested in trading. She said that I was an #$&*@! (whatever--I am) and that I "cheated" her in the past on the purchases I made on eBay (#$&*@! that. It's not my fault that she listed two Shotgun Enquea foils for $5). So of course, I had to say as long as we were playing the "honest trader game," she should not accept a deal then change it and a simple counter offer would have done nicely.

Either way, she's kind of a #$&*@!. She didn't leave feedback on what she bought from me on eBay. So that's pretty much the story. I can send you the actual e-mail transaction if you want. Either way, I won't purchase from her or recommend her and if you find a way to leave negative feedback I'd think that was just plain amusing.

[itjunkie]

you should have left a negative feedback! hehehe she got tons of positive feedback so i made the purchase anyways.

bought 2 copies of the one ring, such a weight to carry for $1 each. condition for boths cards are non-mint though...will find out how "non-mint" they are when i get them. hopefully not too bad.

[ket_the_jet]

If it was NM that means "near mint."

P.S., I hadn't made a purchase from her in some time. She just happened to buy some of my cards then relist them even higher which is when she told me she had stuff I wanted and that she was open to trading.

[itjunkie]

i see... well, just as long as it arrives then i'll have no problem, cards go straight to decks anyways

[silver.telperion]

That's funny Ket!  aneythang55 blocked me and refused to sell to me (after I won several auctions) because she claimed I was a rival seller and store owner.  At that time I had not sold anything on or off ebay for over a year and I never had a store.  She also refused to cancel my bids on the auctions which resulted in me getting some nonpaying bidder strikes.

[itjunkie]

lol @silver: i got banned by her too! long story.. anyways, after a few emails, she lifted her ban on me and the rest of the transaction went quite smoothly:)
