Since I have a show on Saturday, the extra $16 upcharge for 2nd day air will be well worth it.

From early postings on the old auction site, I see that one seller is claiming that the Bella and Edward pieceworks cards were very short (3 each in 10 cases) I hope that this is just BS marketing and not reflective of actual breakdowns.

My 2 cases? 2 Bella, NO Edward.

Like a stake through the heart!

My 2 cases: 0 Bella 1 Edward

Those 2 a definatly short printed.

Ed

In my case I got Edward but no Bella...at least I get the better of the two.

Interesting case breaks.Must admit looking at the photos on Inkworks website I would have expected PW10 to be the rarest.It certainly looks to have the least amount of material.

There are several other jacket pieceworks like Bella's,wonder if they are rarer as well.There must be a lot of some of the other pieceworks to make up the difference.

I actually got no duplicates in the case. I was only missing PW1 and PW6.

I got two boxes for my cousins who love Twilight. The younger one pulled Alice's costume and the older one pulled Edward's shirt! Suffice it to say, the older one is very happy and the younger one is not.

I bought 4 packs at Hot Topic and got two of the HT exclusive card. If anyone needs it and wants to trade for any of the promos except P-i, let me know.

I have a trade pending for the extra HT-1. If I get any more extras, I'll offer them up.

A Robert Pattinson piecework sold for US$177.50 just a few days ago .

Don't forget the first one sold for for $75.00.

And master sets are selling for $450

Just before release, the Edward card slipped to the $80 range but have gone back to $150ish...except for the last one that , due to a 2 person bidding war, went for $247.50

Base sets (if worded correctly) are getting $15-$20 and the other pieceworks are selling fiarly well...I am liking this set.

This is definitely a good release for dealers.From what I have seen of base and mini master set prices you are making back your outlay off them and the piecework cards are all profit.

Just noticed on Inkworks site that they were selling this product direct to the collector. I always assumed Inkworks only dealt with the Trade! Does this mean the release was not taken up by the dealers?

They've done this type of thing in the past. I know they've sold base sets of LOST directly to the public.

I'm assuming they are selling directly to collectors because they figured many of the fans are not card collectors but want these because it's Twilight. It could be a good thing if it brings more collectors into the hobby.

Binders are already sold out!

Does anyone know how many Twilight cases Inkworks produced? I think they could have made another 500 cases and they still would have sold out.

Let me know, Pete.

Inkworks refuse to disclose the numbers of cards they make however if there is an incentive card say limited to 100 which is a 6 case card you take a good guess.

This does not allways work though as i think Strictly Ink just had an autograph card ltd to 99 as a case topper but only in the first 99 cases to be sold, not in any cases sold after that.

I guess I waited too long to order the binder!
