I'm not sure what Geekgee is thinking... he posted that Theoden, Northman MW for $500 originally, then dropped it to $450, now it's reposted at a price of $799!  What the heck!?

It is extreme opportunism and an attempt to prey on people trying to complete their collections. I tried to win auctions for the 17O6, bidding insane amounts. geekgee simply goes by the completed listings results and at least doubles his price. Since the last couple of auctions for the 17O6 went close to or even past the $200 mark, that's the reason for these buy-it-now prices.

BTW, 17O6 is, as far as I know, just as often printed as any other RoS MW, so there is no reason to pay more for it than for a 17O1, 17O4, or 17O8.

Crazy times...

It's not worth that much, but surely is not mediocre. The online promos are among the hardest cards to get your hands on of all..

It is just that, over time, you lose all grasp of any REAL price levels. The more valuable cards, i.e. certain promos, hunters block cards etc, are not that often up for auction for $1, but people come across the inflated buy-it-now's, when they look for these cards all the time, and they start to get used to seeing these prices. That way, a 0P127 will sell for $400 in seconds! ... Think about it!!!! $400 for a non-MTG card!!! Only because a few people are stupid and gullable enough to pay that much for a couple of these cards!!!! It is not reasonable!!!

If you see something often enough, you start to believe that that #$&*@! is real! That is the problem!

Actually, I was able to get very decent deals from geekgee when the seller started out. I would win 1-2 cards and negotiate for more off-ebay and get good prices for the lot.

Sorry, folks! Rant over!

So they have collectors value but nothing else.  The card itself is mediocre to the last degree.  The only difference between that Gimli is that he has an extra strength and no game text.

I'm selling a LOT of 280 Rare cards here - http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150630674308&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT

Most of the cards are from the Fellowship, Mines of Moria, and Two Towers sets.

Thanks

Anyone want to spend $1.3K on the Hunters?    I'd rather piece my collection together over time.

Just bagged a set of the Hunters foils on ebay for $150 (best offer).

That makes it over $1,100 for the masterworks cards and a handful big hitting cards from the main set.

Hunters block cards are still overpriced on ebay as evidenced by those that are sold via auction commanding sell prices quite a bit less than the BIN sellers.

Most people seem happy to pay $35-$50 for an ROS or a T&D MW with a couple going for a bit more. Until sellers get that level of realism about their product then they will be holding their cards for a very long time.

Got a sealed FotR anthology for $19.15:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180700559767&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT#ht_500wt_1202

Not sure the cards are worth it, but I haven't seen many copies of that anthology, and the asking price is generally $50+.  The seller had another one that didn't receive any bids, so if you're looking for it, you might contact them.

That is a great deal! I've wanted one forever... You're lucky I missed it and didn't bid against you for it.

I will admit that is why I waited until after the auction closed before I posted it here.  I wouldn't want someone stealing my precious.

That being said, there was another one that didn't get any bids.  I bet the seller would be open to an offer.
