hey,
Do you think the Apostles & Patriarchs ultra rares & rares should be downgraded?
1) A "pack" of Treasures can be considered somewhat analagous to the Warriors, Apostles, Patriarchs, Kings, and Priests packs. In a sense, it consists of:
- high-end Treasures + high-end ultra rares = ultra rare cards
- the remaining Treasures + the remaining ultra rares = rare cards
- the remaining rares from Apostles and Patriarchs = uncommons
* note that the cards from the Main & Prophets = the same rarity they were before - there still is the same distribution of rares compared to commons - I would eliminate them from the above equasion.
2) The Treasures distribution is pouring more of the Apostles & Patriarchs ultra rares & rares in to the market compared to the uncommons & commons in those sets. There were 4 copies of A Wife for Isaac for every one copy of Abraham's Servant to Ur.
What do you think?

Hey,
After I got my treasures packs I took all of my Apostles rares out of my rare box and moved them to my commons/uncommons box. I have not yet done the same for my Patriarchs rares (you get slightly fewer Patriarchs rares in the average treasures pack than you do Apostles rares) but I imagine I will after I open a few more treasures packs.

My prices have already reflected the change, with more to come...

hey,
Do you think that the prices for the majority of the rares will fall to the point of being relatively close to the prices of the uncommons?
Thanx!

They will probably stay slightly above, but not by much.
