Would you let your 7year old use £20 of his birthday money on a Match attax card???

[ladytophamhatt]

Apparently its a super rare one....

1 bid at 19.99 atm.

what is it called,my ds1 has a pile of them that he has forgot about ,due t new fad pokemon cards,i'll have a look for you
no i would not let him spend it,tomorrow its time for the next fad

[ladytophamhatt]

thsi one

[heronsfly]

I would,
Its his money and either he will be chuffed to bits with it and think its well worth the money,or he will regret it the next day and want something else,in that case he has learnt a valuable lesson.
If he compleats the collection,keep them when he tires of it,I cant believe how much collections selling for,when I have happily out them in the bin in the past.

[theboob]

sorry, he's not got this one ,but he has just informed me his friend ella has, so these sell on ebay,how do you know if they are rare or not ds1 pile gathering dust in his bedroom ?

[FAQ]

I would - but I doubt it's going to stay at £20

[ladytophamhatt]

I told him we'll go to £25....but he's out atm so I'm not sure if I should "forget" or something.

He has a tendency to be easily swayed and will end up giving to to someone for free....

[ladytophamhatt]

hatrick heros and man of teh matches seem to sell best, not for 20 quid but a few ££ each.

[FAQ]

well that would be his lesson learnt - he wouldn't have his card - and he wouldn't have his £20 to buy something else either.

I would let my DS1 (also 7 - although admittedly nearly 8) buy it if he really wanted to.

[WendyWeber]

I was wondering too how you know it's rare, LTH? Seller might be exaggerating?

[ladytophamhatt]

he knew it was rare as soon as he saw it wendy.

I have no clue though....

[FAQ]

I've just a "completed listings" for that card - and they do seem to sell for quite a bit - certainly over £20

[FAQ]

don't know if this link will work

[ladytophamhatt]

£22.56....seems a bargain looking at you rlink FAQ



he'll be well chuffed

[FAQ]

haha - I saw someone bid last few seconds for it and wondered if it was you.;

Does seem like a good price having looked at the others that have completed

Hope he's happy with it

[ladytophamhatt]

I always bid with 43 seconds left.
Always.
Not 44.
Not 42

It has to be 43.

and I win 99.9999999999% of the item I bid on.

I am an Ebay genius.

[WideWebWitch]

I would

[WideWebWitch]

ds has rare match attax and yu gi oh and pokemon cards, some cost £20 odd (they were Christmas or bday presents). I keep telling him I can't wait until he loses interest as I intend flogging them all.

[lubyluby]

no way! a bit late nowa s bidding finsihed, but my ds's collected the match atatck cars then each season they end up in the bin as a new lot id released and so it starts again. they also swap and give them away so no way would i let him spend £20 on one card.

my ds' are 6 and 11 by the way.

[ladytophamhatt]

The card is back on Ebay.

He's realised its a awful lot of money for a card.

I hope it sells....
