RETURN OF THE KING PHONECARDS.

A set of 9 different "Return of the King" chip phonecards has been issued by Telecom New Zealand for use in their payphones around New Zealand. Only 2000 of each of the above cards were released and it is doubtful if we will see many used cards and so interested collectors are advised to purchase an unused set as soon as possible as this set promises to be very popular. Price is US$80 per set. Click here to see the complete set of all 9 designs.
