Gamingetc. Power 9 Proxy cards

Hi,
I know the magic community is somewhat divided on the likability of these power 9 proxies made by Gamingetc. But I was just wondering if anyone actually knew the values for these proxies (Set - Foil and non-foil) or if there really is any demand for them (considering they sold out within 2 months of production)

Thanks.

Virtually no demand and fairly low value.

They supposedly sold out quickly, after which the company flooded eBay with their own auctions for a wide variety of these items. First the regukar tokens, the the foil tokens, then the regular uncut sheets, then the foil uncut sheets.

There certainly hasn't been much eBay interest since, and the few auctions I have seen have been for lower prices (in a few cases much lower) than the original issues. My guess is they are worth a few bucks each if sold individually, and probably much less per card in large lots or uncut sheets.

Slinga, I read somewhere that you had bought a set of them. How's the quality on them? And hows the quality of the foil?

Thanks.

They're actually pretty nice. They do tend to look somewhat similar, which can be a problem if you're playing them and you or your opponent get confused about which Mox you have in play or something. They're slightly thicker than normal cards, and they don't bend as easily, so they are NOT legal for use as proxies in tournaments. I feel like they're slightly larger than regular cards as well, but I don't remember what deck they're in right now, so I can't check that.

Yes they are slightly larger than normal cards (taller). They can have problems with some brands of sleeves (sticking out the top)

hammr7 Mentioned that there were foil uncut sheets of these cards about. As a collectible do you guys think they might be worth something?

Very "slim to none" chance, IMO.

An uncut foil sheet of 50 cards sold last week on eBay for $52. So in perfect condition on an uncut sheet, the foil cards are worth about $1 each.
