I was wondering if anyone has thought about selling their old Alpha card? It has been said more than a few times on social media that “this is a collector’s item” or “this will be worth a lot one day” - so why not put it to the test?
If anyone wants to sell their old card or maybe other memorabilia - could you make an ebay (or other) auction, post it here and let’s see where it goes? I’d certainly stick a bid in there for an Alpha card as I joined after the alphas and that’s the missing piece to my collection.
It’d also be an interesting experiment to see just how much of a cult following Monzo has. Apart from the original MasterCharge and BankAmericard’s from the 50’s which are in the British Museum, I haven’t seen many classic old cards sell for more than about a tenner.
I have the ~10th card ever issued so hopefully I’m sorted for life. I jokingly asked Tom B if he would sign a certificate of authenticity for me and he agreed. So I’m going to buy a house in London with the proceeds.
These are all of my old cards. Never actually activated the Mondo Investor PP one in the end. Didn’t get the Mondo Beta card either, or the black/white/non-branded other ones that were in pre-alpha testing before hot coral.
