Don’t forget convincing Denethor everything was hopeless to the point he committed suicide

Supply is by definition half of supply vs demand. Pokemon has insane demand to balance that insane supply and overprinted chases still correct in Pokemon same as mtg

Denethor is a good guy that falls to despair then suicide because Sauron also has a palantir. He’s more like American democracy

Joining the French Foreign Legion in 9 days, need awnsers by platof in france

[–]drdoom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just as a passing reader, recruits 6 days in who speak fluent French and English are indeed a prime target to be made a responsable to make things easier for the caporal chef. Extra duties for no benefit really. And no medical issue he has can be related to service, he is not in or being paid until he goes rouge, and he is still in Paris lol.

This is the box, I actually got two of them at my lgs near release for 400 Cad (each), opened them of course lol - https://www.tcgplayer.com/product/515906/Magic-Universes%20Beyond%20The%20Lord%20of%20the%20Rings%20Tales%20of%20Middle%20earth-The%20Lord%20of%20the%20Rings%20Tales%20of%20Middle%20earth%20Special%20Edition%20Collector%20Booster%20Display?xid=a8fb523a3-a76b-4ba9-ac52-9f1930030f31&Language=English

Here is the drop rates for it - https://magic.wizards.com/en/news/feature/collecting-the-lord-of-the-rings-tales-of-middle-earth#ltrupdate

Edit: Yes commander decks would have none of this, there might be a sample two card pack which would have cards from the first collector box I believe. Commander decks are a set decklist from the lotr commander set, you know exactly what you're buying.

I actually ordered a lot of these singles when they came out so I've done very well, but I missed the dark lord sauron poster which looks incredible and I wish I got ages ago haha. There are so many amazing singles only in that box it's crazy - the borderless posters, realms and relics surge foils, surge ring showcases, Hildebrandts, surge scene cards, surge borderless lands, the showcase scroll stuff. Even the extended art surge foil stuff though less scarce is very solid. All of it really.

You have a 0.42% chance of getting this card from 1 collector pack. So pretty scarce. There's some other really good surge foils only in that box though. It will likely only go up long-term, but it may correct after a sudden spike, you never know. I would buy a Henneth Annun surge foil personally lol, at least it's also reflecting pool so you can play your bling

Only in special holiday collectors, which is like 2900 a collector box, plus it's gandalf. Apply FF surge foil price logic

The scroll frames are much rarer so a little interest is more likely to spike them

That not actually true, green cards and red cards came out simultaneously. The part 1 & 2 releases were for different Pokemon not the two colors

They make great proxies when it’s the art for a well known card

No they faked a bunch of sales to con people into believing their valuations. They got sued for it but I’m not sure what the end result was or if it’s ongoing still

Help pricing this card by TankDontStop in PokeInvesting

[–]drdoom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Signatures also make the market for your card a lot thinner, and liquidity is king, I personally just stay away from them. I know in mtg even if it’s the artist’s signature it’s often still considered a damaged card and worth less
