: I was in a collector card store with my youngest daughter, who was looking for Aliens collectables. While wandering around the aisles waiting on her, I looked down, and found one lone unopened box of YIJC cards, covered with dust and still shrink wrapped. I bought it for $9.00, and it holds 36 packages of X amount of cards each. Question to those of you who follow this collection.....how did I do? High or low? I have yet to open the box. Haven't had time. Not that I'll be disappointed one way or another, but was just interested whether I did good shopping. Regards. Michaelson

Sounds like you stole them. Good deal. I once bought two unopened boxes of Jurassic Park
movie cards for $5 each. But my real bargain came when I was in a comic book shop one day and
saw a set of Temple of Doom movie cards. The price was something like $7. I brought in a few
bags of old comic books that I was trying to get rid of, and the guy
looked through them for half an hour, before selecting a complete
7-part Streetfighter comic mini series, which he swapped for
the Temple of Doom cards. It was a sweet deal. They were in perfect
condition, and only one was missing. It was a lot better than my
dishing out a staggering $25 for a mint condition, complete set of
Raiders cards from Figures Inc. But as far as I can tell, they never
made a set of movie cards for Last Crusade. ???????
