I don't know if its worth as much as the auction is asking as its been up for sale for a while but it is original artwork after all - for a Wacky Packages collector it will probably have a very high value. As pony collectors what would we pay if an original piece of artwork from a backcard came up on auction? Its a one off piece of pony history, I can imagine they would sell very well.

True, I guess I am just e-bay-shy when it comes to something like this because of all the people who try to sell "SuPeR RaRe PoNiEs- L@@K!!" like Cotton Candy for 5x what they're usually worth. Art like this would be difficult to get a good appraisal on, I'd imagine, because it's so non-mainstream.

Lol so true. Heck it probably is over priced - if it wasnt it wouldnt have been listed for so long! And I am assuming collectors of other things are as wonderfully crazy as us over here :)

When you can get some Nirvana ponies for $50-100 I can't imagine why MLP collectors would pay the $900 for this card. That's just me, though. And, like you said, it is original art and fairly unique. So, who knows?

I think its down to the individual and what they collect. I have paid more for some accessories and for some paperwork [namely adventure cards and puffy stickers and rare UK barrettes] than I have paid for a large amount of my nirvana ponies. I think something like that artwork is more for a Wacky Packages collector than an MLP collector to be honest.

I don't know, I think it would go pretty great in a pony room if you had the right sense of humor!  :silly:  <---spittle pony

AMAZING, I love it!  Man, the best thing is how close it is to a real MLP backcard!  I think they must've had a So-Soft backcard for a model, LOL!

Haha yeah! XD
Thanks to SDS for my siggy and avi :heart:

It would be cool very true! I meant more the price and the idea of an original artwork of a Wacky Package may appeal a little more to their collectors rather than MLP and therefore the price may be more understandable to them. Or they could have a thread like this on their forum moaning about the ridiculous price as well :P
