Honored to make the first post in this amazing contest. I love this idea, I think with all of the recent market hype we need to realize that there’s so many amazing cards that can be bought for very low prices! My entry is TWO of the XY Premium Trainer Collection Yveltal EX Full Art. I absolutely love the artwork on this card, the XY BREAK era secret rares are some of my favorite Full Art artworks. The gold border fits very well with the EX logo, unlike the GX cards there’s less attack text so the artwork can really shine. When I got back into the hobby after playing Pokemon Diamond, XY was the first game I spent a LOT of time on. I have a special attachment to the XY era and I think this card is a beautiful way to end it and pay tribute to both Yveltal and Xerneas as Kalos legends! ![](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/61yU9nE87kL._AC_.jpg) As you can see here, I paid $1.99 per copy in near mint condition. Shipping is $0.99 which brings me to $4.97 in total for these cards! I bought a third because I like it too much and I was already paying shipping! ![](https://i.imgur.com/SYWbdyB.jpg) ---

Nothing too crazy but I figured it was a pretty good price and I always have a soft spot for WOTC cards. I have been trying to complete as many WOTC cards as possible and I have almost all of the promos now. I find the BEST promo cards are maybe a little lesser known and deserve a bit more appreciation. This thread was the nail in the coffin for making me buy this card haha. $5 CAN Free shipping so about $3.58 US. ![](https://scontent.fyvr4-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.15752-9/93378138_577098769572071_3410994487395090432_n.png?_nc_cat=108&_nc_sid=b96e70&_nc_oc=AQlzrrLEGPnLly42nnC5-zqKRmPTaicMT0Ap84o_Cokn-0G77kfe2R1egu6xyjhskl0&_nc_ht=scontent.fyvr4-1.fna&oh=b85307f018eff7cd3f1ba74d8e113062&oe=5EBB362B) ![](https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/wRsAAOSwoctehUWq/s-l1600.jpg) ---

Just picked up a bunch of entries. All of which I need for my binder master sets. Full art EXs are crazy cheap right now and I am always happy to add more that I am missing for my collection.

For awhile I thought I was one of the only ones buying up these kind of steals. Beautiful entries so far. Ex era is also cheap and undervalued following into $5 category on some. ---

Great idea for a thread. Highlight some of the many low cost, high value cards. I selected a promo that would go perfect into one of my binders. This card was awarded at the 1998 Parent/Child Tournament, as well as the Volume 5 Fan Club Magazine.
