Maybe I'm doing something wrong but I can't get the completed listings of the HP cards to come up on "you know where". I saw them ok when the auction was in progress but can not find them now.

Gary,
Same with me, but I think it has to do with the new and "improved" Ebay that can take a while to update International sales after they have gone final. I linked to the reference for the four auctions rather than to any of the 4 specific auctions.
Ebay constantly updates its searchable database, which is what any query searches. Until the database is updated, you can't get updated links to the completed auctions. The "active auction" database drops individual auctions once they are completed. The "completed auction" database doesn't pick them up automatically, but batch processes the newly-completed auctions on a regular schedule.
It used to be normal for completed auctions to go dark for an hour or two after the auction finished, unless you had linked to each individual auction. It took that long for the searchable database to update the new status and add in the recently-completed auctions. These days it can take a day for US auctions, and sometimes many days for International auctions. The Harry Potter backed auctions will likely be visible by ~ January 2nd.

Hank;
Thanks much for the detail. I have had problems previously but just thought the seller had pulled the card or some such. I knew that wasn't the case this time so wondered what was happening.
Appreciate your explanation.
Willard... Thanks for the links. appreciate your time.

When I started collecting MTG, the HP backed cards were one of my biggest frustration as the deck had already been sold to a big collector.
I honestly expected the price to go higher.
Now, the prices for some cards like Glorious Anthem have gone crazy, and the selling of the duplicates will help me acquire those. Collecting global costs a fortune.
Just for the info, shipping to the US will cost me $80 for each card.
I will list some of the non land cards in the coming days and will keep you updated. I'm glad that 4 different collectors could get one of each.

Let's see what a non-land card goes for.

The auction is ending tomorrow. I found a way to ship cheaper. Belgium instead of France, for the same service. Nearly $30 less. Not bad.
Good luck with bidding.
Giediprime41 who won one land last week received his card a couple of days ago and left a feedback, just in case some of you would still have doubts.
