Thanks for helping :-P

I haven't a clue on value, but once we figure a reasonable price I'd love to buy/ trade for them.

The basic land sets used to be very common but are now probably worth at least $15 sealed.

The Ice Age lands are probably $20 to $30 per sealed pack

The Winter and Spring packs may get you $50 or more from the right buyer. These pop up on Ebay and every once in a while get close to $100. It all depends on which sealed pack bidders need.

Hi,

I'm diging this old topic because I'd like to sell all the following sealed packs.
It's easy to find single cards but they're very hard to find in sealed condition

2 Sealed Packs: Spring 99 : 6 cards / Vampiric Tutor on the top
2 Sealed Packs: Winter 99 : 6 cards / Pox on the top
5 Sealed Packs: Basic Lands : 10 cards / Plains on the top
1 Sealed Pack: 10 cards / Karplusan Forest on the top
1 Sealed Pack: 10 cards / Adarkar Wastes on the top
1 Sealed Pack: 10 cards / Brushland on the top
+ 1 "loose" Serra Angel

I'm asking 350$ for the complete lot.

Here's my data on sealed packs I've bought the past couple of years from eBay:

6/10/2012 $36.65 1997 Radiant, Icy Manipulator
5/20/2012 $58.76 1997 Summer, Library of Alexandria
5/20/2012 $31.59 1997 Harvest, Mirror Universe

I think $350 is a bit optimistic. I think few collectors would be interested in the 10-packs of Plains. I have a few myself and wouldn't pay more than $10 for them if at all. I bought a sealed Adarkar Wastes through eBay less than a year ago for $5.26.

Even if the prize packs could be valued at $50 each, that suggests that everything else in the lot is worth $150. This just isn't the case.

Unless you're dealing with a hoarder, not a collector, I don't think many would be interested in two of each of the prize packs. I suppose they could buy the lot and sell the extras, but that's kind of a hassle. So, you might be better off splitting these.

A relative new 6x9 collector could probably use most of these. To make this more appealing to such a collector, you might want to split into lots without duplicates.

I think that those like me that have been collecting these for years would only be interested in the sealed prize packs. The other stuff we got long ago. I will grab one from eBay if its real cheap, but I'm crazy that way.

I've been collecting since I won my first cards in Arena and watch eBay closely. I have over 1,600 cards (1,100 are not basic lands), but don't tell my wife that!
