FWIW, That card, the exact same one, was sold by PWCC on 7/7/16 for $23,600.

I just want to let everyone know that I e-mailed Leighton regarding a refund and he told me it would be refunded by the end of the next business day and he was good to his word, I received a full refund last night.

I received my refund as well.

Seems to me they're going to have to cancel this venture altogether - the people requesting refunds will tack onto the number of slots they're still needing to fill for completion and if they're still a couple hundred slots away from a sell-out before beginning to hand out refunds....

When I first saw thread, I was excited, until I looked at the price per ticket!

My take is, the price was way too high. If they had of kept it reasonable, in the $50-$100 range, we likely wouldn't be having this conversation.

i amazed they sold as many tickets as they claimed with that price considering what cards were available that could be sold for more than the ticket price, however there would sure be some happy people depending on the results.

Guess I missed that one. Even so this break was announced shortly after that sale. If the price of the break was adjusted down by the same 25% margin that the value of the Mantle was overstated this may have went down differently, and probably would have still left them a nice profit.
