The current price is currently the highest one has sold for on eBay. If it sells for over $4k I'll be very happy.

Well. Trop is already at $4K. This could be interesting

Put my bid in for the Fire Elemental... it looks really nice. Hopefully I win that auction. The Mesa Pegasus looks a little beat up on the backside.

Yeah, definitely gradable - much more so than the badlands or bayou.

Is any one of us the high bidder at the moment, on any of these? I'd rather not bid against someone I know :(

I took a look at the scan of the Trop and can't tell if the scanner is dirty or if it has 2 small nicks on the back.

Looking at the zoomed in pic it looks like 1 on top and 3 along the bottom.

Yes, and will be involved come the end, I reckon. Or at least, I hope.

Now that all the auctions have finished, the final selling price for the summer cards offered by Kidicarus for $49k eqaulled...drumroll...

$47,467.62

Surprisingly, not far off, although no one person was going to spend that much on those summer cards as one lot.

The Tropical ($5688.88) and Bayou ($3060) ended much higher than I had anticipated ($3800 & $2200 respectively), with the Hurricane only 10% over my initial thought of $5k.

I'd like to see someone auction an U.Sea at this point :P

I was off a bit on the Trop, but pretty well nailed the hurricane/bayou.

The Bayou, Trop and Hurricane all actually surprised me... pleasantly that is
:-k I thought they would be higher than a few years ago but almost $6k for a TI... WOW! and RAW at that

Makes me consider parting with some of mine.

And to address the "worried about counterfeits" comment in the other recent summer thread... That is the primary reason I am BGSing my high value summer, and possibly may consider the common/cheaper stuff as well seeing as it is not so cheap any more.

Keep your eyes on the mail brag thread to see what my latest batch of submissions comes back as [-o<

PS: Anyone want to estimate what this would go for now?
