I recently purchased an Imperial Seal and the biggest deciding factor for me was that it could go in anything from Mono Black to 5 Color. Workshop is extremely narrow in what it does and only fits in a handful of decks. When you combine that with the cost it really does make it hard to justify getting a card that you can not get max use out of

So I'm like, okay I will take it at the price you changed it to, and I also need a, b, c, ect..... He doesnt respond, and he goes and changes the price on everything I offered to buy, by cents. Like .40 cents a piece.

LOL, usually when I complain about somebody on here it is to vent, but in this case people should probably know.

After all of that, I offered to buy the cards at the price he changed them to, and he said he would sale them to me at MOTL value, which was no more then 50 cents a card. LOL, how hard up for a couple of pennies are you?

What are the good ways to clean a magic card?

And if you send one in to the PSA for grading, do they clean it for you?

On the topic of the PSA, is it common practice to have high value cards graded? Or only if you think yours might pull in a high grade?

Yeah, I posted on his list so he'd see it and realize he's going to get in trouble if he doesn't stop, but let us know if he does it again.

I don't actually see it written in the rules either. There's stuff about offering to buy at a higher price than what's listed, but nothing about shifting your prices up on your own.

Logically, such a move is just stupid if you actually want to sell anything. But I don't see anything forbidding it either.

Any rule would of course have to take in to account that people sometimes need to reserve the right to adjust a price when they list something way too low and don't realize it until they get like 10 offers for the card at a steal price.

Assuming that a list is active and that it's not correcting an obvious and significant pricing error, if someone changes prices after receiving an offer to buy at their set prices, there are only two possible reasons. One is that they do not want to sell the card, making it a violation of the rules regarding posting cards that aren't available. The other is that they are trying to make their sale a cash auction, another obvious violation.

There's a huge difference between an occasional pricing error and someone raising the price on every single card that someone offers to buy by a relatively small margin.

I think the point was that it's not clearly stated in the rules, even if it is implied.

A: You're kidding, right? Please tell me this is not a serious question.

Q: On the topic of the PSA, is it common practice to have high value cards graded? Or only if you think yours might pull in a high grade?

A: A graded card is generally worth more than an ungraded card, so having your high value cards graded (assuming they're worthy of being graded) they will have a greater value in the eye's of serious collectors.

Thanks for any info.

Here's the deck I have so far (built solely out of things I own with the intent for casual playing):
8 Forest
7 Island
3 Halimar Depths
2 Simic Growth Chamber
1 Evolving Wilds
3 Terramorphic Expanse
1 Nantuko Blightcutter (No real reason, wanted more threshold interaction)
1 Arrogant Wurm
1 Mulldrifter
1 Gaea's Blessing (reuse madness cards?)
1 Roar of the Wurm
2 Gush
2 Echoing Truth (bounce visionary when there is 2+ in play?)
3 Blastoderm
4 Nettle Sentinel
4 Rancor
4 Brainstorm
4 Elvish Visionary
4 Basking Rootwalla
4 Wild Mongrel

I'm currently looking into getting more Arrogant Wurm and replacing more of the 1-ofs.

Leeches? A Homelands cards? what has the world come to when we need a homelands card?

Now, where the blazes can I find the player guides from the fatpacks? I cannot seem to locate them on motl.

Thanks!

I'm a big fan of Careful Study, Werebears and more Roar of the Wurms. 3rd turn 6/6 flyers are sweet!
