congrats.

I won a sketch of the movie JAWS by Cynthia Cummens. Great card.

Here's the auction number: 260198966045

and a very nice not that expensive but also not spectacular Katie Cook LOTR Masterpices sketch card: 160194117536

Very happy with these two cards.
I can't wait when Katie have my commissioned card ready.

I just bought an 8 box case of Heroes season one (my first EVER case!) for £259.95 + £9.25 P&P. I'm thinking that's a good deal, but I'm not sure how much other people have paid. I'm happy anyway! Smile

I'm pretty sure when you sell the remaining autographs you will earn almost every dollar back.
Or probably a lot.

great purchase, congrats

I finally completed a little mini project I have been working on for a year or so. The other day I used the Best Offer option to buy the Jordan Fry and Philip Wiegratz autographs from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. With these last two autographs, I now have one of each of the five kids from the movie! Dance I really like the photos of the kids on the cards; each one seems to capture the personality of the character very well!

Scans below, if interested. Smile

A bit off-topic, as my posts in here usually are as I rarely find a bargain on eBay (you lot usually beat me to it!) but I DO find bargains in my local store.
Well, my Local Store is relocating to smaller premises and they were having a 'no reasonable offer refused' sale today to clear everything out and I got sealed boxes of Firefly, Star Wars Evolution Update Edition and the Thunderbirds Movie (complete with binder) for £25 the lot. What did I pull from the boxes?
Star Wars Evolution Update Edition:

and four of the 6 etched foil puzzle cards.
Firefly:
Big Grin
Thunderbirds:
This rather nice coloured sketch by Graham Bleathman:
Big Grin Big Grin
PLUS redemptions for Sir Ben Kingsley's autograph card AND for Brains's Checked Shirt costume card - I've sent off an email to Cards Inc. to see if they will still honour them!
IT was fun opening boxes again - I haven't done if for a couple of years!
Au Res.,
Paul
