How many different lobby card sets have been released? I am aware of four:
-American (8 cards)
-German (8 cards)
-Spanish (12 cards)
-French (12 cards)
Does anyone knows about some other sets beside this four?

You're right, they're not that expensive, compared to some other original promo material. German, American and Spanish are quite easy to find, they do turn on Ebay quite often.

I suggest shopping around, as this guy tends to charge top end of the price scale.
IMO, the Spanish set looks more aesthetically pleasing and has more rare production shots.

That's true, the Spanish set is my favourite. The American one is not bad either, but the price is way too much. I think I got mine for $50 + postage.

That's definitely too much! That reminds me of the guy who's asking some crazy amount for the UK poster on Ebay (I think £700)!

It definitely is. But if you're patient enough, it turns up on EBay now and then, for no more than £50. I think the same seller has the Spanish poster which he's selling for £300, and you can get that one for £10-15 on Ebay and Todocoleccion site.

Talking about unrealistic prices, here's the set of French lobby cards:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Guerriers-de-la-N ... 136wt_1165
The seller is asking 150 Euros for the whole set of 12. Now, if the average price for Spanish set is around 35 Euros, and the German one 20 Euros, I can't understand why would the French one be so expensive, especially when one knows that French lobby cards do turn up on Ebay separately, and they usually go for 5 Euros a piece.
