SidewinderMost Rittenhouse boxes I have purchased are $65 and cases were $750, but I haven't purchased a box or case in a few years now.

Ah, but in the true spirit of 'A Christmas Carol', Wolfie can remain in 'Bah Humbug' Scrooge mode until midnight on Christmas Eve when the three ghosts of Christmas Card Collecting will pay him a visit and set him right

william291077Howdy,
I was always disappointed that SMG didn't sign for Buffy or Scooby Doo, but she was the star and I have been a fan forever and will buy the set and make sure I get any cards in it with her signature.
This is great news, Merry Christmas!
Billy

IncarnadineI haven't bought a single card in over 8 months, but I'll be keeping an eye on this set. If RA manages to get several key signers (Whedon, Hannigan, Head and several of those who never signed before) I will pull the trigger on a case, or 2.

HIMWith RA at the helm of a Buffy set, they would have had a major shot at pulling off a dual SMG/Boreanaz.

I'm in the same boat, I haven't bought anything for quite some time now due to a few factors but this will change everything for me. I only wish it was Rittenhouse doing the new Firefly set as well instead of Upper Deck.
Also, I would love to see some more of the art from the season eight and nine comic covers on cards, as alot of them are quite spectacular.

No he's not just a lot of people are not responding in fear of retaliation.
So unless SMG had a change of heart and is doing this for almost nothing or RA dropped some serious coin there will not be very many of them so either going to be a 9 case incentive or something else like 1 in 20,000 packs.
IMO there is no way she will sign enough to be pack inserted. You all seriously believe she would go from signing ZERO cards to sign enough to be inserted into packs.

I am staying optimistic- SMG has done a lot of things differently this past year- from having no internet presence at all to having both an official Facebook page and Twitter account. Also I think she has grown to appreciate her time on Buffy and the fact that it was a major milestone in her career. Could be she changed agents. Who knows, but I think whatever the card ends up being will be pack-inserted.
RA seems to be good at getting previously difficult signers to sign cards for them- we've already gotten Halle Berry and Teri Hatcher, not surprised they got Sarah.
