Going through my collection of inkwork promos (I have a lot) and was wondering what the best way would be to try and find / collect the ones I am missing, other than search on e-bay Do the old inkwork promos (the rarer ones like p-i, p-uk, and SD2***) show up at card shows like the Philly Non-Sport Card show. I like the thrill of the chase and find it more satisfying (and usually cheaper due to shipping costs) than just searching and buying on e-bay I am willing to trade, but usually don't have duplicates of the harder to find promos (although I do have other promos / chase cards / base cards that I could use to trade Andy | ||

Just thought, Ross down in New Zealand (PIKO) is what I would consider the doyen of older Inkworks promos. He has just about everything Inkworks put out in the way of promos etc... Might be good to email him as he might have some info for you or maybe set up a trade? Plus, he is such a nice bloke. Hope you find what cards you are looking for

I've got a couple of P-Uk and SD ones, generally at shows the dealers don't have the hard to find ones as they've usually sold them already | |||

Andy, Send me an email specifying which ones you are looking for (or at least the sets if you don't want to be specific at first) and I'll see what I have. Deena | |||

I do not think you have to go to great lengths to procure the older Inkworks promo cards About 3 years ago you put up a list of the Inkworks promos that you had and you had 90% or more of them I think you had a couple that I never had and I had a couple that you never had. I have never worried about sets to me there were only promo cards and sets were as many promo cards issued within the promo set. Yes you can sort your promo cards into SDCC , Internet, UK, sets but then you only have cards everywere and not in the sets that they were issued in as promo cards EG some issues had up to 10 cards issued as promos sorting sets out only leave you having to buy extra cards to refill the spaces. My opinion only leave the promos as promo sets and forget about base sets. But I am only a promo card collector and not interested in base sets. And to cap it all off these days Inkworks promo cards especially Internet, SDCC, UK,are getting quiet expensive. I have just obtained my Angel 4 UK embossed card last week at a really cheap price I think it cost me more in shipping than the card cost have not received it yet possibly today. I have quiet a lot of Inkworks promos for trade but no really rare ones but even shipping has put a stop to trading Any way Happy Hunting | |||

I haven't really hunted down every Inkworks promo - just pick off a hole in my checklist every once in a while but I've picked up a few quite cheaply in recent years. In fact, I found a Charmed NSU-1 Gummie for just $6 several years ago. I saw at least one other under $20 around that time. That one seemed to be headed for $100 before the recession hit. The Buffy embossed B5-2 is hard to find and the Buffy Season 6 BE-CL has been a $60-75 card for years (actually a case card) but the Buffy Connections P-UKP, which used to be a $40 card can be found for around 5 bucks. I think I paid $8 for one a few years ago. I know that one unreleased Serenity promo and that Godzilla standard-sized P1 is still expensive. What would be the 10 toughest to find Inkworks promos these days? | |||

In my opinion at least the two hardest to get inkworks promo cards to get are not all the high value and rarer cards that we have listed But are two cheaper promo cards Shrek 3 S3-3 Supernatural 2 P-Uk You hardly if ever see these two cards up for sale Although a few years ago Promo king gave out a prize for something and the winner selected Supernatural 2UK for her prize I have only seen these up for sale at least once and I brought both also I purchased two Supernatural-UK promos off ED during covid and lost them in the mail so over their 17 18 years of life I have only seen 3 for sale and only 1 Shrek so I would say these are among the top 10 not in value but in availability | |||
