NOTE: While it is true that one of these sets sold recently on eBay for $207.50, this auction ended while it was still believed that only 8 sets had been released and before it was known that 288 sets would be released. Therefore, this eBay auction result is NOT a true reflection of this set's current secondary market value. FUTURE auctions and sales of this set, once the entire 288 sets have been sold by these 7 dealers, will determine its true secondary market value.
