Guaranteed Gold Cards When talking to the distributor last week, they revealed to me that a limited edition gold card is guaranteed when you buy a sealed case display (6 boxes of 36 packs) of wave 4.
The bad news is that the card is randomly inserted in one of the packets with no markings etc etc. Needless to say that i've ordered in another two cases into the store and i'll keep you updated.

Update: I made a small mistake earlier, a case quantity is in fact 8 Boxes of Wave 4 mixed and I can confirm that there is indeed a gold card in each case.

Well, I guess that means they are actually not as rare as the P01 cards. Yet the 257 cards are selling for $300 up to $600 USD, while the P01 cards go for under $100. Guess I'll just wait for the market saturation and buy one when it reaches a reasonable value. Sad thing is that a bunch of the 257 cards will probably get thrown away by people who impulse buy a pack and decide they're not interested in playing.

Well there were 3000 P#01 cards produced if memory servers me correctly and only 333 gold cards. We know some were held onto by Mind Candy and given out at competitions, the rest were randomly inserted into wave 4 mixed.
One gold card for every 8 boxes, 288 packets.
lets say 200 cases contain a gold card thats 1600 boxes, 57600 packs.
Thats still pretty rare, bear in mind that MC probably still have a bunch in reserve.

In my case it's from UK distributors and you need to have a retail account, I can order you in a full case if you need it and ship from the uk, just pm me.
Needless to say the box will be sealed and untampered.

You would get about 30% off retail if your buying case quantity. So your talking around 600 Pounds sterling.
For that you get a factory sealed case of 8 boxes, 36 packs a box and a guaranteed gold card. I ordered a few more cases there on Friday for the shop so pm me if you want one.

ok so for £600 we get 8 boxes of 36 packs of cards, equalling shedloads of swaps, possibly the remaining silvers you need and a gold card...Sorry bit much for me at the moment! Even if I could sell off all the swaps! (out of interest roughly how many silvers did you get out of all that???)

the silvers were really varied actually, one box I got 6 silvers from, another had 15. there really dosen't appear to be a solid pattern. In total I managed to find 67 silver cards in that one case along with the gold card so value wise it wasn't too bad at all.
