I managed to get one as well for that price, well $14.99 to be precise. I think it may of been from the same seller as he/she had quite a few available.

Just won a Jonas Quinn C28 costume card from season 8. £5.90 with postage.
Can't tell what it looks like yet becuase I'm not sure if the photo on the auction page is the actual card or a stock photo.

Thanks Redemption,SciFiMom.
Just hope it's the one in the picture. It's got crease right though the middle of it and a few specks of red and green. Here's the pic that was used on the auction page, Hope I'm allowed to do this.

Bougth unopened Boxes of Buffy Reflections for £21,00 and of Spike TCS for £26,99 from the same seller (I just couldn't resist).

Why it's my best eBay find? The Buffy Reflections box contained this little gem: Dance Dance Dance



I will post both box breakdowns in the breakdown section.

Sounds like a Harry Potter bonanza at your house Cardz_house! One question though - how come POA gold base sets get three of these Elephant ?

Well, coz the POA gold base set are very limited (rumoured initially at just 32 sets but I think should be more than that figure but less than 100). The gold foil base set are beauties!! Thumb Up

Have a look around ebay, the last set went for about US$110. Its average price tends to hover around US$80 nowadays.

Hence, my joy!!! 1 gold base set almost will recoup my entire cost of each box.
