I'm surprised to see that even now, at the end of May, the Christmas Item Bundle is still on sale and the trading cards are still in use.
With the trading cards, players might be pleased that the decided point of exit has exceeded vastly, and the price they paid for gelats etc in order to get the cards has had good value, but the cards got old and boring pretty fast. The "Christmas Item Bundle" however has been ignored to a negative effect. Although both the trading cards and the item bundle are constant entries, they haven't been handled with thought put into the future possibilities, and instead of being treated in an economical sense they've just been cheap and easy ways to gain money.
Players are not going to buy Winter-centric items at the beginning of Summer, so to make the item bundles anticipated they should have been removed a long time ago. I'm skeptical as to if we'll see any actual new winter items at the end of the year (rendering these current ones into limited editions, thus increasing their values) or even if this setup will be carried on next year. It could have been done much better either way, and it's a shame it's too late for that now though.
