There are much better values out there then a POA box, although I wouldn't blame anyone for taking a shot.  Even though there was only 500 cases your odds of pulling an insert that is worth more than $100 is tough.  Although there are some great props and auto's you can pull.

Yeah, you got that right.  I'm glad I got one last week just because I never did get to open one when they came out.  If it hadn't been for my $15 off Ebay coupon, I wouldn't have taken the chance.  BUT-it would be so awesome to pull one of those rare props, it's tempting!

Those low #'d props are about as hard to pull in this set as they are in SS for the letter props, devils snare, etc.  Although most of you wouldn't know how tough the low # props in SS were to pull...Well Anna and I sure think they are ROFL!

I think the candy props from POA lost a little value with the Wizard Candy prop from SS.  I was looking at the scans and pics from POA and it is funny to think how incredible we thought those were, now we are so much harder to please Crewman

That is so true!  We loved the POA set because it was the first one with inserts, but if Artbox released something similar now, we'd be very disappointed.  Although, I think the GOF set was a bit disappointing. Undecided

Actually, I am still a fan of the first set, but like kbmum said, because it was the first set.

As for GoF, I find it a bit disspointing as well, but yet, I keep buying more cards Roll Eyes

True, GoF is startlingly similar to PoA. I think GoF Props were dissappointing. The costumes brought us one of each of the champions, no Ron (sadly) but otherwise a good set.

The autos were great. It's a shame the best were just repeats but many of us were glad of another chance to get those autos, Brendan Gleeson and Miranda Richardson were great too. Krum was good but it was a shame they didn't get other champions.

The prop set just didn't cover any new ground.
