Which version do you have?

For the cheapest way to own it, grab the Standard version for $3. The premium versions like Christopher ($14) or Newsstand ($8) offer better packaging or perceived desirability, though scarcity isn't the main driver here. If you only want the card, save your money and buy the Standard or Greatest. Pay up only if you specifically want the unique presentation of the Christopher or Newsstand editions.
