Edit: They've been put on ebay now, you can bid on them here!

Hellkites are selling for $30-35 shipped on Ebay right now and a FoW can be purchased for $45-55. Ebay fees are ~13%, but hey, that's the cost of doing business. You'll be much better off selling them there and then buying a FoW with the money you make from selling them. I have successfully used this strategy when wanting to turn high dollar standard cards into expensive eternal format staples. Good luck.

Thanks for the advice!

normally you would want to sell for below trade value. Good luck though :)

Thanks! I'm going to try my luck on deckbox first and let it run for a couple days to see if anyone is interested, if not then to ebay I go!

I'd suggest putting the Hellkites up as 1 day or 3 day Buy it Now listings for a couple reasons - Buy it Now allows you to set a minimum price you'll sell for in a much more elegant way than setting a reserve, and short listings prevent your cards from being tied up for 5-7 days at a time. The key to getting the most for your standard cards which spike is timing and pricing. You can always price to sell, even if you are a couple days late. Good luck!

Sell them here for $110, you'll make more money and ppl here won't spend as much. Additionally you'll gain an extra ref point.

Good strat right here ^^

Well they're selling for $130-$135 on ebay at the moment, but if someone is willing to buy them for $110 on here I'll do that :)

The one other thing about Ebay worth mentioning is that the number of people who will see your listing vastly outnumbers the people who frequent this board.
