My personal experience says the blue backs are about 3x-4x more scarce than the black backs....but that's only me and others might have different experiences. I posted one yesterday on a thread so won't bore us again....cool cards though....best regards

In the past I've thought the number was more in the 7-10x range but I have to admit that I've seen enough popping up on eBay and other venues lately that I'm more comfortable with an estimate in the 3-6x range at this point.

You guys are right...after a little more thought I think my number was low....maybe 5x-7x on black backs to blue backs.........I think the recent number seen had my opinion swayed....but more thought and I am thinking they are a little scarcer..

I haven't seen a red back available for awhile. What is the relative scarcity of red vs. blue and black.

well.....if sales are an indicator of comparison it has to be about 33:1
lets say there are 12 red backs in existence,my guess is based on a speculation of a survival of 396 total crofts candys! Hey I have some psa 7's including a Tinker! But they are all black back sorry~

6 of my 31 Candy backs are blue. I have made no special effort to acquire them and I am not willing to bid a premium price for them, so I think the ratio is somewhere between 4 and 5 to 1.
