Dear ebayer,

I have noticed how expensive the MARK VIDUKA - LIMITED EDITION card is selling for here on ebay. I am sure that the prices for it will come down, the more that come onto the market, but I have a cunning plan which has worked for me!!

I purchased an entire box from my local Martins Newsagent (or McColls) to see if I had any hope of getting the Mark Viduka Limited Edition card, knowing that these shops were the only place that is running the promotion for this card.

I opened all 100 packs and  there was a Mark V limited edition card. Lucky me, you all say. Now, I have 2 boys, who do I give the ellusive MV card? I realise that to complete 2 sets, 1 box is not enough. I go back to Martins, buy another box, open all 100 packs, and, guess what,  find another MV limited edition card!!

The match attx website states that Martins have the MV card until stocks run out, but I suggest, instead of paying £30 for the 1 card on here, why not buy 600 cards from Martins.

Is it a coincidence that I buy 2 boxes and find 2 MV ltd ed cards? Or are Martins putting 1 card in every box.I know its a chance you take, all stock may be depleted in the near future, but if you dont get 1 ltd ed card, you can at least get an 80% match attax set to resell on here, plus have the added bonus of enjoying opening 100 packs!

Am I SAD......... probably, but I got 2 happy kids now, with 2 nearly completed sets for £70

GOOD LUCK

I HAVE SINCE BOUGHT A 3rd BOX......YOU GUESSED IT, A MARK VIDUKA CAR WAS PRESENT..................
