Default So What's More Rare?

Posted By: jay behrens

If you want to claim that Mother's is rarer because some of the cards in the set only have one known example, than I guess by that rationale, e104-3s are rarer than t208s since the complete checklist is unknown and a number of the cards only known example. Comparing complete sets is also bad way to compare rarity since there are far more Mother's cards in the set than the mere 18 cards that exist in the t208 set. Even if you get generous and say there are 10 of each t208, that is only 180 known cards. Theoretically, there are around 75 cards in the Mother's set. Assuming an average of 3 known for each card, that's 225 cards.

I would never consider e104-3s rarer than t208s

I like to sit outside, drink beer and yell at people. If I did this at home, I would be arrested. So, I go to baseball games and fit right in.
