I'm looking at almost $30 to get one off ebay
 
YEAh!, I want one too. It is pretty much the last piece I need; not taking into account sketch completism.

I have bought my rittenhouse pieces in the past for less than $22. I think the lowest I got one was $9 or $11, I can't remember exactly lol.

Our best bet would be to get lucky at auctions. As we're not as pro as Tangent with the hookup in the states. =P
 
Yes, I got mine from Rittenhouse. $30 is not unusual for a Rittenhouse Rewards card for a Marvel (or other relatively popular) set. Some of the rewards cards are cheaper but that's a reasonably typical price. However, it's also no cheaper to do with points. By the time you've shipped the empty packets, paid for registered shipping to a US person and then paid for them to ship it (not registered) to Australia, eBay is no more expensive.

I gave up on sketch completism almost as soon as the sketches became artist choice. Some of the earlier sets (eg Stargate Season 5) have each artist doing multiples of the same sketch and that was just another chase card. I'm very glad I haven't really tried to do sketch completism as the number of artists in each set just keeps growing. What I do instead is try to avoid having multiple sketches from the same artist and I also try and spread the characters around. Other collectors do the exact opposite - they collect a particular artist or a particular character.
