Looking for a Golden Oath to open and admire , condition doesn’t matter much but atleast needs to be intact . Would prefer opened ones if price is lower tbh .

A beautiful deck! I haven't come across a sealed one of these, hopefully you can find one albeit if you're opening it, might not be worth the premium. I have a duplicate I bought because I wanted to keep an opened one in more pristine condition. My first one cost me $750 back when I had never seen one sold and I wouldn't let anything get in my way; call it my emotions getting the best of me as well as a lack of insight. My second one I bought for $477 (euros converted to dollars). I've seen it on eBay for $450 with 1 bid but perhaps you'll have better luck with a private sale now that deck prices have gone down a bit.

I hope my candor is helpful but if the community feels that I'm being too transparent, I'll stop from commenting like this.

Of course it is helpful - honesty is rarely a poor choice

I prefer candor to cantdor.

Thanks for the insight and wishes , hopefully I can find one , I really want this version , someone offered me this for 1800$ , or a bundle offer which included All 3 Oath + Golden Oath Proto for 5000$ , but the prices seemed ridiculously high so passed

The first one I owned ended up being traded back to it's original owner because I couldn't bring myself to open it, and it felt like sacrilege to own it and not do so.

Fortunately, I got over my stumbling block and, even more fortunately, I had the chance to trade with a very generous fellow collector and procure another one; its cards enjoyed their first taste of fresh air in a long time soon after delivery.
