Homelands

I just bought a box of Homelands on an auction site. I thought I was getting a box of Spanish for $100, but after paying, the seller informed me it was actually French.

I said it was fine to receive the French as well (I honestly don't care right now what language it is in), and the seller informed me I was getting a deal due to their error, as French is worth $50 more. Is this true?

and if so, why is French worth more than Spanish (I imagine it would be the same vs German and Italian, too)?

I think French and Spanish are about the same. Actually I've seen more French boxes around than Spanish, I would be a little upset by that error.

French sealed box of homeland goes for 20-30 euros.
You can buy 10 displays for 170 euros.

It's very common, all french shops are full of them. 30€ for the highest price.

Spanish Homelands was by far the hardest and most expensive for me to get when I was working on my global Homelands project. Next in scarcity (for me) would probably be Italian or Portuguese, followed by German, and lastly French. Just my observations.

It's possible that shop does charge $50 more for French than they do for Spanish, and if so, they must be operating under the CCGHouse or tingxuan business model.

the seller said he'd ship today (he's west coast) and according to the seller's website, the store doesn't open until 11AM, so I think I have given sufficient notification for them to stop shipment. We'll see what happens.
