      Umm, no. There are more than 1 copy of the same autographed card in Season 2.

      I cannot make this claim for Season 1, but for Season 2, there have been multiples of the same autographed card for sale at one point (I can’t remember who it was now, I think it was Fany’s RDR).

    so, what is the rarity ranking? like are the micro cards rarer than the holo foil, etc. and are the piece cards the most rare?

      Well, for every Card Set (15 packs), there is only 1 RDR Micro Card and 3 Holo foil cards, so I would consider Micro Card to be more rarer than Holo foil Cards (otherwise there will not only be 1 in every set). But at the same time, the total number of Holo foil cards are more than the Micro Cards (36 Holo foil Cards to 9 Micro Cards), so in a way it kind of balances out the ‘rarity’ of the cards (overall, it is hard to collect them all – you have to buy A LOT of sets). Also, the bidding/winning prices for the Micro Cards and the Holo foil Cards seems to be pretty similar in ebay, so I assume sones categorized them the same.

      I think both the Autograph Cards and the Piece Cards are the rarest cards in the whole collection (since the Piece Card only have a small piece of handkerchief that the girls used in the Photoshoot, there can still be more than 10 Piece Cards for each member). Since SM doesn’t really reveal the exact number of Autograph/Piece Cards made, we can just assume that both of them are rare and hard to obtain

      Hope that helps ^^

    Hi!

    I’m kinda new on this one but i have a question regarding the set of the star cards… what would be the significant difference with buying the set of the star cards and just buying 15 booster packs? Also, do we get storage box for the card if we buy the set?

    I tried to google translate the listing in gmarket.com and seems that they are selling the set along with storage box?

    http://english.gmarket.co.kr/challenge/neo_goods/goods.asp?goodscode=176342164&sid=26406&pos_shop_cd=EN&pos_class_cd=90000031&pos_class_kind=T

    Thanks!
    I just found out this website and feel that i miss a lot of goodies out there, esp the limited ed -_-;
    Seems like my wallet will be empty soon enough $_$

      Hi vicjun,

      I think the only difference between buying a set and 15 booster packs is you cannot control the number of ‘rare cards’ that you can get – if you buy a set, usually it includes 1 Micro Card, 3 checkered-foil cards, and 11 colour-foil cards, whereas if you purchase 15 booster packs, the seller might mix-and-match the packs so you might not end up getting the right amount of ‘rare/unique’ cards that you should get if you purchase a set (it is completely luck)

      Most sellers (Gmarket & other ebay sellers) do include the Storage box/case when you buy the Season 2 Star Cards (although it is kind of bulky for shipping ><)

      Hope that helps! ^^
