About the same as the last HMV Exclusive Box I'd say... although no doubt I'll get another in about six months and try it again! Got to get another Blue box next! - Simon

Hi simon hope your all ok, bit of mixed box to be honest the notebook is probably my favourite item, it just about makes it to £15 but no where near £30 🙂 -Matthew

Yeah, they're very careful in the way they talk about the value of their boxes and often base it on RRP or an "Amazon value" but all it takes is for one seller on there to overprice something and they can claim that something has a high value when it doesn't. The real problem with these boxes being produced by Pyramid is that they can select the cheapest items with the highest RRP and make the boxes seem to be great value on paper no matter what is inside! - Simon

@InfiniteFrontiers yeah some people are a bit to kind saying oh yes this is worth this much but when you look how many there are of the item on the Internet they don't even sell for said price of value, yeah true, whats worse is when they put a postcard in or stickers and make that as part of the box overall value. -Matthew

I don't mind postcards to be honest (got a huge collection going back to the 70s and we used to produce them to give away to attendees of our Transformers convention every year), but they're quite low value items and only cost 5 - 10p to produce at most. But when boxes including any paper/card items they've got to be protected though and they've got to arrive in perfect condition. The one I had this time looked like it was damaged before it was even put in the box! - Simon

@InfiniteFrontiers yeah it is more the value of a postcard, it must be great to have such a collection of them, its cool you do conventions i enjoy going to comic cons/conventions. yeah it shouldn't have been that damaged they should put it in an non bendable envelope just to protect it. -Matthew

Not done any events for almost a decade - stopped for health reasons amongst other things although that was probably a good thing as I was probably living with a hernia for a few years so I'd been risking my health without knowing it for ages! We've got 400gb of footage from them though so we've got plenty to upload! - Simon
