Card games - WOW

Ace Modder · 16 Feb 2016 at 16:35

My son has a pretty big collection of magic the gathering cards. He wants to start collecting the world of warcraft cards now though. I really cannot find any online UK based stores that sell the wow cards.

I know they are not made any more, but I thought stock would still be available.

Anybody know of any websites with stock, my googlefu has failed me.

IGUK has these - is that the right game?

Ace Modder · 16 Feb 2016 at 16:56

thats the right stuff, but they are all out of stock when you click them. Think from the 2 pages, two were in stock from the whole list, and the qty was only 1 of each in stock, unless I can find ok stocks no point my lad trying to collect them.

Sorry, I didn't see that

Firestorm Cards has stock in - I've used their ebay shop before, not had any issues. I've never used the web store though

Looks like it ended in 2013 so I wouldn't get your hopes up too much...

I had TONS of these. I never played the TCG but I did play WoW and there were sometimes cards with codes for in game stuff, so I'd buy a pack, look for anything useful, and if not stick them back in the wrapper and leave them. I might even still have them somewhere, I'll have a look.

Spectral Tigers in particular go for quite a bit, I remember seeing one sold for £6k.

Yep, it's a mount which you can only get from the trading cards.

You may want to see what Potomac Distribution have in stock. They're a bulk distributor who sell by the box or case, but they often have good rates on dead games if they want to free up space in their warehouse.

Fwiw I'd discourage your son from spending any significant amount of money on this as now that it's completely dead there's nothing new to come and he might struggle to get anyone to play with. The game is basically worthless as a collectible too so it's an all round poor investment in time and money.

He'd be much better putting the money towards more Magic (best TCG not close) or perhaps an LCG like Netrunner (more info here https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgamefamily/5337/living-card-game).
