Hi panini friends,
today, I would share some of panini world cup experience:
1. Espana 82: my 1st panini ever collection, a little frustration when I bought my packets, when I'd opened 1st pack,
just got 4 stickers!! as I knew Argentina packs have 6 stickers!! so it was a long story to complete a set not really hard, as
I had to ask my hood newspaper guy to open another box for me to complete my panini espana 82 set!!
but what about the set value now? fair price ranged 400~550 pound!! still have some greedy sellers listing this set for
600 pound!! rarity of this set is extremely high! badges single price 2.5~5 pound!! please compare to France 98 badges!!
2. Italia 90: different packets version some contains 5 others 6, most unbelievable about the set is the price for the 4 badges
of introduction! set of 4 pieced would be sold for 28~35 pound!! I don't know why? if they are available easily in packets and
some other foils are even harder to find in packets!!
3. France 98: set easily sold for 250 pound at least including 3 England+ Iran + e.album , very hard set to complete,
another drama about foils here: they are a frequent found, so do not expect many inside your 100 packs -box!!
spain foil is even harder than #1,2,3!! spain badge priced for 7~10 pound, a complete sticker set of spain = 20 pound!! WoW!
4. K&J 2002: one of best panini collection, foils are a lot inside packets, Ireland stickers are rare, but N.America edition
packs have the best availability of Ireland stickers!! currently, this collection became available on ebay, so make your investment
now!!
5. Germany 2006: very hard set to complete, thanks again to many USA and Holland stickers are spreading in packs!!
although it is 8 year old collection but still not picking a real rarity, due to panini mass production!!
