I put a bid on it.  The leading bidder is very persistent.

I was trying to price it out.  $40 total for the four boxes of DC/MC.

28 packs of X-Men      $100+
28 packs of Image   $100+
20 Image starter decks $100+

Does anyone have an idea what the lot is “worth?”   

edit: rough retail value

$3.95 X 28 = $110.60
$3.95 X 28 = $110.60
$9.95 x 20 = $199.00
DC/MC = $40
Total = $460.20

A sealed box of Image boosters went for $500+, so 28/36 is roughly 75% of that.

I saw this too. I'm definitely following it, but it'll go for way more than I am willing to pay.

I think it sold for more than it was worth. Tho you cant put a price on pack opening! :o

I tend to agree with you. Image and X-men are rare, but I don't think they're worth that.

You're right about pack opening. It makes me sad that I will likely never open another pack of Overpower again.

I thought it was going to go even higher.  Some one will probably end up reselling all of the cards anyways and make a profit.

It would have been cool to have won this auction, but given how rare unopened packs are from these sets I don't know if I could have opened them.

Unfortunately these are probably worth more unopened as everybody always thinks any unopened pack will contain the best cards in the set. If the cards were in a sealed box you could justify the cost. Unfortunately I use to go to a comic shop back in the day that would open the boxes and search till they found the value in the box and than mix it with another searched box to make it look full. My last good find was about 3 years ago at Frank&sons. A baseball card guy had old non-sports cards selling for 25cents a pack in a 5000ct box. I picked up 28 IQ, 30ish Classic, 40 monumental, 20ish JLA & 4 DC. Since I bought so many he sold them to me for $20. I thought about keeping them sealed & reselling them. By the time I got home that idea was out the door. I opened all of them even tho I didnt need anything! Hello my name is KObossy & I am an AO (Addicted Opener).

Here is another one to look at.

At a quick glance it looks like it is missing one DC holo, the promo any mission, Adam Warlock cards and the Classic Inserts.

Thats is very pricey. I think you buy the sets & promo cards individually and pay $700 to $1000 less.  :o
