Buying, and there are two other MOTLers buying at $475 each. Also, why is there only one thread with Badlands for sale in the TA&S forum?

Do any of the American based online stores carry a good range of foreign cards? I'm having a difficult time trying to track down a fair value for a bunch of vampire crap. I can find some random things here and there but the value differences are making it hard for me to get a read on other things i don't have a precedent to compare. Here on MOTL is a japfoil Bloodghast going for 26. Obviously i'm no pro at this, but that sounds realistic. I can believe that pretty easily without a comparison. (FTR Ebay's got one BIN at 30 with 5 bucks shipping and a set for 135) But, same person from MOTL, japfoil Sangromancer is listed at 7? Who plays Sangromancer?? Commander, sure, but if i were to guess i'd still be looking at maybe 2-3 bucks. (Ebay's got BINs at 8, 10, and 15.)

Looks like he copied and pasted a buylist from somewhere else and everyone is selling him Gaea's Cradles.

Your best bet for american stores would be Starcitygames. They are the only ones that come to mind that list foreign cards in addition to regular, for the most part. __________________ send ref checks, paypal payment or any questions to the email in my profile!

He drastically increased his buy prices since I posted that. They were extremely bad at first.

I posted the below to try and get some ideas and move my power so help me out http://classic.magictraders.com/ubb/Forum13/HTML/024655.htmlI'm also wondering if i should move my 2 Jaces, the next set makes me think a Green based deck would be fun to play, but if i still have Jaces i will always want to play them. __________________ Member Since 03/28/2001 10000+ posts 3rd in posts in Ontario 15th in posts on MOTL Top 5 in Refs in Ontario (by people who location posted)

I wanna build a Rector/Patern of Rebirth deck for Legacy, I havn't even seen of these decks in years but it was a pet deck of mine back in the day. Anyone know of any savage tech printed in te last few years that could be slipped in (Progenitus of course :P)? I don't care if it winds up Tier 7, if could steal a few games with a 20/20 Nantuko Husk I'd be happy.

I want to do birthing pod on rector then bring in nether void and world queller.I'm thinking about a deck list, but the more I think about it it just seems to slow. The problem with pattern is that the 2 most common removal spells avoid the graveyard. You will not get an enchantment nor a creature.

I kinda remember the deck. It was during when I first started playing. But I don't remember enough to help you though

It's a cheapy unplayable junk card but i wouldn't mind a small trade for them if you don't wanna dig em up for free. If you actually care, i could always send them back.Long shot i gotta try for anyway.
I would volunteer to lend you my one copy (I use it as a silly wish target in Belcher), but I'm 99.99% sure it wouldn't reach you in time. If you want to try it, I can mail it tomorrow. My only request is that after the GPT/after you recieve it, that you send it back. __________________ send ref checks, paypal payment or any questions to the email in my profile!

Me and one of my friends were attending a casual MTG night at Applebees along with a group of other players; and we both walk in with the exact same deck we both thought up based on Slag Fiend from NPH, the only difference was 2 cards. He had Grapeshot; I had Bitter Ordeal.__________________ Bargain is not to powerful for EDH, EDH is to weak for Bargain!

Thing I don't get how the hell does the set getting spoiled early hurt sales? or cause people to quit? Really, WoTC seems to over exaggerate these sort of things.... If anything I think New Phyrexia is even more hyped now then it was before..... __________________ I shall have the souls of all who defy me. "Lord Crovax"

Hmmm if someone did that to me and my company, that caters to so many people, and ruined every secret (doesn't matter if it hurts sales or not, it was their deciision to keep it a secret and release at their own pace), i would probably tell them **** off forever. They can still write about the game and play it obviously. That's good enough. You had a big priviledge and clearly could not respect it enough to keep it. He doesn't /need/ that priviledge and responsibility, it's not killing anyone to ban him but him. I know that's just my opinion, but i'm still a little surprised it wasn't a more permanent thing, and that the other 3 only got half the time. I wonder if they are pressing charges or what. EDIT: The point i'm getting at is that at least he isn't in jail for three years, or a year and a half.And WOTC wasn't saying it was hurting their sales or making people quit. Matignon said that, himself. And yes he is being a very dramatic baby. I'm pretty less than 3 people (zero?) have quit because of this early release.

Meh, just seems a little over dramatic on everyone's part. Doesn't seem like anyone should be making such a big deal about some so...irrelevant.. but maybe that's just me. __________________ I shall have the souls of all who defy me. "Lord Crovax"

The Channel Fireball article makes it look like he just trusted the wrong guy. Though he shouldn't have been "playtesting" with anybody but himself.

Isn't the bigger question why does WoTC feel it's ok to give an entire godbook to a "Pro" more than a month before the actual set release? Not that Matignon isn't a good player or needs the help but part of the challenge for the Pro Tour is the time crunch.New Phyrexia is out just 1 month before PT: Nagoya (Scars block constructed coincidentally). You can play test ideas as the spoilers are released and really get into it once the full set is spoiled/released. Matignon and his playtest partners (before the leak) would have had a nearly 2 or 3 week lead on some of the other players.
