Title: How much is this worth?
Post by: Ekann1 on September 15, 2014, 07:19:59 PM
Italian {abyssal persecutor}. Got it from a worldwake pack while in Switzerland. Any ideas anyone?

Side note, I think the packs were relatively cheap. How much is a wwk pack normally?

Really, it depends on who you're asking. It seems that Italian a a whole (except for legends) is slightly cheaper than English. However, some people value foreign cards as trash, and others (more of these people, it seems) value foreign cards as treasures.

I mean depends on item and purchaser, I find a full set in another language to be higher in value than an English set.

Usually most items trade at same value unless its Korean or Russian due their low printing and printing process.

The finish on Russian cards is ducking sweet. The kiora Russian foil was beautiful, but the $150 she fetched as opposed to the $35 (just bought one) is much better

Italian isn't very rare for the foreign language card collector. Most of the time it is 10% less then the English version.

Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Russian. That is what the people want.

With Russian being higher value, I plan on buying a bunch of Russian packs of kahns when I'm in Toronto next month.  I usually see Russian packs sell here for like $5-$7 each..  Well when I was up in Toronto last time I got 3 packs of Russian for a little over $10cad..  Which is just over $9 usd!    Would love some Russian fetch lands!
