Hahahahaha...well, y'all are making me feel better for sure. Sometimes I do feel older though...lol. I had a seriously bad bout with anxiety in the beginning of 2009 (fear of death by heart attack).

If you don't mind me asking, how old are you guys on here?

I believe there is a thread around here that lists some of our ages... I believe the board average (of active members) is in the late 30's.

Year Of The Ram! I have an amazing Valiant card set of everything ever put out that I'd only sell as a complete set, couldnt break it up! It'd be kinda costly tho as it took alot of money piecing it together.

I'm 28. 1981 - year of the cock.

I am very certain I am below the average age for the regular posters here. I don't think I even fit in the second youngest quartile.

I'm 38, and right now I feel it. I just do not recover as well as I use to.

I'm 30. And have plenty of extra common cards (probably some extra chases, but who knows), but nothing approaching time to sort them out. But if you're interested in a ton of the commons for enough to cover shipping and paypal, I estimate that there should be more than enough to make sets of Deathmate, VE1 and VE2, and maybe Unity.

So, I found a local seller who offered to sell me sealed boxes of Valiant cards for $25 a pop. Not sure yet which series he wants to sell, but doesn't that seem a bit excessive being that I can get some unopened boxes for $6.99 on eBay?

If it's Valiant Era I, it's a little high. That's not accurate - it's a lot high.

If it's Valiant Era II then it's quite in line with the market.

Definitely pass on that deal, if it's anything but Valiant Era II.

JonesyAZ · Post by **JonesyAZ** » Tue Dec 22, 2009 8:16 am

Cool, I will check with the seller on that

Thanks guys!

BTW, are the Valiant Era II cards so expensive because of having a low "print run" like how the comics got less and less printed towards the end?

I'm 22. I wonder if I'm the youngest board member...

That's pretty much it, plus the fact that gathering a set of the over sized cards is very hard to put together.

There was a teenager a year or so back. I remember there was a bit of a hullabaloo about meeting some of the dudes at a con up north.

Draco · Post by **Draco** » Tue Dec 22, 2009 12:27 pm

22 sounds like the winner dude.
im closing in on 40, so i wonder who is the eldest member amongst us?

Is it Mr mallet? ( ducks).

Draco · Post by **Draco** » Tue Dec 22, 2009 12:29 pm

Back on to the thread though, i picked up a recent hit of all Valiant cards published or as good as.
I passed on a small hit of them to a buddy who needed a few to complete his and then when i know whats what ill get my lot finished off and have them looking purty.
All doubles will get given away to anyone who wants them, but it wont be till next year as they are in the US
