Estimate 2000-2500 cards for sale by a total noob

[viio]

Hi, I've got boxes and boxes of trading cards here which my wife played. Unfortunately I have no idea what's in there and I need to know what to look for. There's lots of foil cards and things in shiny packets. There's also some strange ones written in elvish and plenty of "one rings" including one which looks like 1R1 isildurs bane, but in elvish.

I don't know where to start in sorting this lot out! Can anyone help?

They're no use to me so everything's up for sale!

Thanks, Paul.

You need to list rares and foils for us to give you an accurate value.

There must be hundreds in here that have a little shiny "Pro" symbol on the corner - what do they represent?


Thanks Lurtz, how do I identify them, are there codes on them?

Don't know what you mean by this, could you give more information?

Bottom right corner. The ring you mentioned above, says 1R1. The first 1 is for the set, R means rare (U means uncommon, C means common, S means Starter, P means Premium...) and the last number is the number of that card in the set.

Excellent that gives me a good start. This one definitely is a 1R1, but is that no use because it's in elvish? Thanks Lurtz.

As for the pro cards, I have 3 here which have a small silver hologram type icon in the corner that says "Ultra.Pro" - these 3 are 5U120 9R25 and 5U118

Embarrased about the sleeve thing - just realised after I posted again

That's tengwar. And yes, they are worth a bit less than the normal version.

PM me first!  

I hate to disagree with you, but Dragon Shield are slightly better than Ultra Pro. Much more expensive...

Just my two cents.

[viio]

Well if anyone really want a pile of empty ultra pros then let me know I'm afraid my wife wasn't rich enough for the dragon shields hehe

Don't bother listing all the P's, only the ones that have this: 0P***, the 0 and P being the important part, and some numbers after. That means they are promos rather than premiums, and are worth much more.
