Character Amiibo Cards: Values on the Rise

I paid about 25 euros in total for 5 cards; Francine, Chrissy, Gladys, Wolfgang and Skye. I don't know if I paid a lot, but I'm happy with my purchase so I atleast didn't pay to much. I remember there were packs with 3 cards for sale at a shop not long ago here for 1,50. I guess that would have been a good investment, but I wanted specific cards so I'm just happy I got my cards before the game releases. All thats missing is Fang....

You paid around $5.50 US per card. Francine goes for $8, Chrissy $10, Gladys $6, Wolfgang $15, and Skye $10. If you paid 25 Euros, then you got a heck of a deal (roughly half their eBay value)!

Fang goes for $15 US, or 13.55 Euro, at least on average. If you can find it for less, then go for it!

Thank you! I had no clue if I got a good deal, because the prices vary a lot from what I've seen. I saw cards prices of 25 dollars on Amazon. Fang btw was prices 8 euros, but it was sold out. If I fibd him I'll buy him, but for now I'm just hoping to get him through the game. He is really a must have for me.

Good to know I got a decent deal though. Still a lot of money for some cards, you can actually buy a decent game for that price....
 
I got pretty much all the cards I wanted a long ways back.
But I did snag a few of the not as popular villagers while they were still 1-2 dollars today. I also sucked it up and ordered an etsy fan made one for lucky and raddle because I just don't want to pay 20 dollars for those two individually.

I kind of wonder if we'll see new packs come out though considering some of the new villagers coming and npcs (daisy mae).
 
After seeing this brilliant render of Chief, I wanted to get a Chief card, but they start at like £12 on ebay ;(

def gonna look into making my own nfc tags since im really just looking to get villagers in-game. Sucks I didn't realize that was a thing sooner or I wouldn't of just spent $20 on cards XD

Before the Direct, prices weren't this high. Once it was shown that you can use existing Amiibo cards to move villagers in and/or take pictures at Harvey's, it drove prices up. For whatever reason, Wolf villagers fetch a premium. I've still got a spare Lobo hanging around, but I'm sure once the game drops, he'll be snatched up real quick.
 
Check local gaming stores for the cards. A gaming store that sells new and old games/consoles has the cards in packs for sale.
The price for one pack is $5.99 in Canada.

That's $4.34 US, which right now, would be a heck of a deal. I've scoured the areas around me to no avail.
 
This is why I've always traded cards :) I'd usually only buy cheap cards for like a dollar or so, in fact I just made an order for 6 cards a few days ago for $8. Unpopular villagers are still pretty cheap.

After coming back to AC I did notice the huge jump in price on sites like Ebay. It sucks but it was inevitable with New Horizons coming.
If you already have some cards, I'd suggest opening up a trading post to get some of the popular cards you really want.
Some people have dupes of popular cards and will trade them for more common ones just to complete their collection, so every now and then you can get lucky and get a popular card for a good deal.
 
To be honest, I think that once New Horizons hits... there are going to be so many opportunities to get different type of villagers in the game... and it'd be better to buy a pack and then trade with other people in my opinion!
 
tbh, I wouldn't be surprised if nintendo finally reprints these sets or otherwise releases a new "complete" batch singular set of all these cards due to new horizons

They've already confirmed a re-release in Japan. This could very well trickle to the States, but it'll be a while.

I hope this happens, but those new villagers might be hard to get x-x
I would love to see new villager cards with them dressed in their new clothes!

Edit: Sorry, I misunderstood!

err, when I say complete, I just mean for the reprints

I imagine the new villagers and npcs will get their own brand new set

Which Series 4 needs do you have. I opened 18 packs, and might be able to send a couple your way.
 
I have only a duplicate of Scoot, Coco and Kapp’ns daughter, and I don’t think they’re very popular and don’t know who’d want them

One of the video game chains local to my province has them back in stock (6.99$ CAN each), I think we can expect to see them in bigger stores soon :)
