I used to track the auction ending price of all misprints/fillers and Summer cards, but have not done so for quite a while. I will see if I can find the list and edit this post with the rare prices (if I have any).

That would be a big help.

Thanks berk.

Anyone else have any info on the cards that don't have values next to them?

Thank you for the info I believe these prices are a bit out of whack considering this was when summer stuff went through the roof. I'll add them to the list though.

It looks like 2003 was a good year to buy summer!

It looks like the summer market hit the max in December of 04.

Yeah, old prices are ridiculously low or high, and I think only transactions within the past 2-3 years should be accounted for. I originally thought that summer started peaking end 2003, but it seems that my estimations were a bit off and the peak was sometime in 2004 instead.

@Enrico: Yeah a Stasis for $200 is amazing by today's standards. I managed to pick up a stasis and a number of other rares before the boom, and there's no way the prices I paid are representative today.

There are actually some other eBay transactions which I recall. Magnetic Mountain, Bad Moon, a couple of Hyp Specs, another Crusade, Gaea's Liege a Rock Hydra and some others. I'll PM the OP if I manage to find where I saved my list of those prices. Great job thus far, Brian.

Yeah obviously the prices I have are a little dated, but I provided them anyway for historical value.

Do you guys think 3k-3.5k is realistic for a hurricaine?

A friend was trying to sell one a couple years back and turned down 4.5k

I was thinking they're more like 4-5k

Hi Worth.

I'd be amazed if a Summer Hurricane hit more then $3750 honestly.

If the Hurricane went over 4k it would be the second most valuable card in the set which is just silly for an Uncommon. There's no way in my mind that the card is worth more then a Summer Underground Sea.

That seems to be true however. Last year, I was asking $4000 for my hurricane without any takers. People were telling me they were worth like as low as 2-2.5k. Since then, I've turned down 2 offers in January & February this year to sell for 4k.

The reason the card is worth so much is because it appeals to 2 markets and there very hard to come by. It appeals to the Summer collectors and the misprint collectors. It's a really cool card but personally I could wait and try and trade for one I don't really feel like dropping $4k cash for one cause honestly I'd rather have another Sea for that much. I'd consider trading $4k worth of cards out for it though. Might sound stupid but with a house and all I can't drop that kind of money on a card at this time.
