    New guy question

    Hi Everyone,

    I'm new to the game and have a question.

    I live in Quebec and have noticed that I can buy boxes of French cards at my local stores, for a reduced price compared to the English ones.

    Are french cards as valuable or less valuable then their English counterparts ?

    Yes they almost always are less from what ive seen. Not 100% sure about other collectors, obviously it's selling to a french market, but I wont go near the french cards.
    Check out this as an example...

    Demand is lower and when it's the case, price are always lower. I live in Quebec and I never buy French version cards. I think my store does not even order them.

    if we check in beckett, for example a french subban young guns is 40$ and a english one is 30$, but real value is aroung the same or a bit less in value on the french one. for habs and french market maybe in 50 years a subban french yg will be rare and goes high in value.
    c'est ce que j'en déduis...
