And well you should be. Thumb Up

You don't say which 4 you got, but when I look at the BINs for those signed pieceworks nobody is going for $10 each. I remember that I paid upwards of $50 for Charisma Carpenter years ago.

Did you buy them from someone in the UK? Since you are quoting dollars I would think not. I ask only because I do see some really nice card deals from UK sellers from time to time, more so than US sellers just on average. I can't take advantage of them from my end of it though. I have often wondered if its because of a lack of interest or less information on US TV shows. Anything mainly British, like Bond or Harry Potter or LOTR, is priced either in a similar range or sometimes higher due to greater demand for actors less known internationally.

Either way, it's a super deal on good looking cards. Congrats.

Just looked it up in the guide, I only see 4 AUPW in Season 2. You mean to say you got them all, including the Carpenter, for $40. That is epic. Eek

Yes, I got them from a UK dealer, they purchased most of the inkworks stock. They often sell in $. I wasn't particularly looking for the cards but found them whilst looking for some other cards.

I haven't had a set since 1993.

I'm sort of undecided whether this goes into one of my top eBay buys or not, as it's the second most expensive single card I've purchased, but I picked up Bryan Singer's autograph from the first X-Men set recently for £65. I still cringe a bit at paying that much money when I'm usually pretty strict on my budget, but honestly I had long written it off completely as a card that I'd even find within my price range, let alone win. So, pleased Smile

I mean, I've still written off getting his even scarcer X2 card, but just one is fine!

That is an AMAZING price for that card, so stop cringing! I think you'd never get it better than that. Well done. I love hearing of finds like these even if I wish they were mine! Thumb Up

PS. Yours looks nicer than the one from X2.

There are also 2 different Lohan autos from the Machete set, which you regularly see go for $100-200.

Also, a few unsigned auto cards from the set, by the other actors in the film. See Jeff Allendar's checklist for details.

I have them all. Got them on the auction site a long time ago for a song. Haven't seen any since, no clue how many exist.

Just received a Wonder Woman DVD with 4 trading cards - a Sainsbury's exclusive - for £8.00. That's £2.00 less than the physical store, and to top it off, post free!
