All cards listed are in good condition. Most cards, unless otherwise noted, have slightly rounded corners, but no bends, folds, or creases.

PLEASE e-mail any offers to [email protected]
I would GREATLY prefer to sell this collection as one large package, but if for some reason you very specifically want one or two cards from the set I may be willing to sell them individually depending on the cards, offer, and circumstance. Please e-mail all offers soon. Thanks
