Not a problem. It's why I fired up SRCard three days after Gen Con last year.
BTW for those interested, this marks SRCard's first anniversary. :o)

They're "dream cards." They don't actually exist, but are collections or sets
of cards that would be cool to see may it into the really-real-world someday.
They also serve as possibilities or ideas to be pulled from for real FASA
expansions.

Same thing. Limited Edition is the correct name for the original set you now
have. 1st Run is the slang that came about when referring to the LE, since the
reprint is called 2nd Run.

Yes. 1 Rare in a Booster, 2 Rares in a Starter. Though there were some sorting
issues with 1st Run that may lead you no getting numbers outside of this norm.

Matb or Phil, you guys wanna field this one?

Can't help you there. However, if you ever find yourself in the Phoenix, AZ,
area...

Actually, if I remember right, I've seen a price list in InQuest or Shadis,
but they were kinda wacked on their pricing scale.

As a list whole, we kinda discourage price lists for SRTCG as such things
start to commercialize a game and take the fun and gentleman-trader aspect out
of it.

Glad you like the list, and again welcome.
