How Much are Sanitarium Super Flyers Cards Worth?

• Typically standard Super Flyers cards sell for about $1.00-$2.50 each depending on the popularity of the player. Expect to pay $5.00 for any of the 5 Legend Super Flyers cards.
• The short supply of the Super Flyer albums has overly inflated the price of the album on the collector's market. I saw one empty Super Flyers album sell for $72 on Trademe. The album is currently worth about $25 minus cards and about $70 with a full set of 50 cards.

Where Can I Find Out More About Super Flyers?
Sanitarium used to run an excellent Super Flyers website (https://superflyers.co.nz) which unfortunately is now been taken down. There you could not only play Stat Attack online with your Super Flyers cards by entering the unique code on the card you could also visit the gallery for pictures of the cards for each team. These days information about the cards can only be found on card collector sites.
