I believe those prices are quite high.
Thanks for the info, I'll keep the link on hand anyway.

200$ is what I paid earlier this year for my NM Summer Terror.

It may be high, but after 1 year and a half searching, I couldn't find better.

edit : I did not get mine from ABUgames

My "NM/MT" Summer Northern Paladin from ABUGames was in played condition, so buyer beware.

And before anyone asks, I woulda claimed it via eBay for not in condition stated, but home took 2 months just to get it (and other goodies) to the post office to mail to me, so I am stuck with a beat up paladin. :-(

Edit: added where I bought the Paladin.

When it comes to a card of such rarity, there is no excuse for their misgrading. You should contact them to try and get some sort of compensation for their ineptitude.

Mark, I'm awfully nitpicky when it comes to card condition. I could easily see somebody grading the card as EXC/NM. I just got done looking at the card again, scraped some of the black smudges/spots off with my thumbnail, and now at casual glance it looks unplayed. it still has some whiting on some of the edges on the back, and I'd grade it EXC+, but I doubt I'll be able to find a Summer Northern Paladin in better condition than this one unless I pull it from a pack myself. (BTW, I'm not going to look to upgrade my SNP unless I can get a hell of a deal).

What I'm getting at is I don't think that, 3 months later, it is worth trying to get the attention of and compensation from a company that cannot even differentiate between languages, when, at further look, I will accept the card into my collection, although it barely meets the grade to do so.

EDIT: I do agree that there is no excuse for misgrading a card of such rarity and value.

and Kalle, I do not mean to hijack your thread, and I would help you more with getting the last three cards for your Summer common collection if I could. Good luck!

ABU sucks at grading. I once got a card graded NM/M that was NM/M except for the stain on about 1/4th of it from soda. Also got a NM/M summer land that was torn.
If you contact them they will take it back, but then you will have to restart your search for a summer paladin. Either way, you got screwed.

Are you working on rares as well? Saw your post on uncommons...

Rares are not a priority now, if there are some available at a very honest price, I might make an offer.
This is my breakdown at the moment:

Basics: 15/15
Commons: 75/75
Uncommons: 59/95
Rares: 11/121
