I dunno, there is something like $250 in value there going by about 1/2 of the closest equivalent card versions. If every card is a s valuable here as in its most valuable printing, there are over $500 there.

I think I've found at least 4 of these at retail. I'm going to buy them all and attempt to resell for profit.

Holy mother of (Insert witty MTG flavored white legendary creature here). When I first heard of this and was like "What, 18 actual usable cards in foil makes it $80? Screw that.

Now looking at this, and seeing Loyal Retainer is $113 by ITSELF, I mean...is there even a hope of buying one of these before that secret cabal of collectors swoops them all up to add to their dragon horde? lol.

Nope, just checked with a cursory google search. Even Amazon, Coolstuff and Starcity is selling them for $250 a pop, with Coolstuff and Starcity being out of stock even at that price. Whoa. This is why I don't buy From The Vault releases. lol. The secondary market will never allow MSRP to be honored on specialty products when they know they can make a shit ton more money jacking up the price.
