I'm aware it's a violation of eBay rules.When I'm buying goods, I have no problem if the seller has higher shipping and handling prices. Personally, I would rather have money given to the seller than eBay. What they did is close a loophole that people take advantage of. And to say sellers who do this are ripping people off is ridiculous. Reducing the fees for selling lowers the price for the buyer in the end. What, do you just go on eBay and buy goods without ever even looking at the shipping cost? Now that you can't be ripped off by the seller "hiding" the cost of the item in the shipping number one line below the sale price, are you now going to completely ignore shipping costs? Shipping is part of what you pay. I never misled people in any way.

If I miss a seller overcharging on shipping then I just retract the bid. No, I'm not paying $8 for shipping that costs $2.

I usually tend to check shipping costs before I bid. If the shipping cost is really outrageous I may still bid, but I will not bid nearly as high. I also tend to use the "Lowest Price + Shipping" option when looking at stuff I want to buy as well.On a semi-related note, what really peeves me off is seeing people selling MtG cards and excluding Alaska/Hawaii in the shipping. First Class and Priority (and presumably media mail as well though I never checked on this) cost the same as anywhere else in the US as long as the package is under 1lb last time I checked.

Yes, it delayed the draft by about 40 minutes since all the entrants had to be reported by DCI number. __________________ Most References in Massachusetts 85th All-timeSupport my friend's store: http://www.tabletoparena.com

Yes. At first, it wouldn't create round one. After reinstalling, we got it to create the round but it wouldn't auto-pair. Subsequent rounds auto-paired OK.

Depends on what you are looking for, don't think there'll be much of a premium if you are looking for Eternal staples.

Just Type 2 Things i could sell or move more easily. Power 9 just sits and never gets played because there are about 0 real vintage tournies around. __________________ 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)

Then you will get a lot of bidders if it's just mainly T2 you're looking for.

Pack 1, Pick 1: Tezzeret, Agent of Bolas. . . Pack 2, Pick 1: Venser, the Sojourner . . . Rest of the draft? I almost don't care. My deck: 1 Tezzeret 1 Venser 1 Grasp of Darkness 2 Arrest 1 Dispense Justice 1 Steady Progress 1 Viridian Claw 1 Palladium Myr 1 Leaden Myr 1 Iron Myr 1 Gold Myr 2 Dross Ripper 2 Scrapdiver Serpent 1 Serum Raker 1 Darksteel Sentinel 1 Core Prowler 2 Wall of Tanglecord 1 Gust-Skimmer 1 Phyrexian Digester Edit: 2-0, going into Round 3. Edit2: 3-0. Tezzeret is ridiculous, apparently. Turning Myrs into 5/5's is good.

Actually, it was my bad, I realised too late that he was referring to gold-bordered ones and deleted it immediately, but you still got your post away.

Pardon my ignorance, is there a way to search Haves/Wants for specific languages of specific cards? Or just search for words or phrases, since there are some people who cannot spell or just write "Fetchlands". Uhh same for TA/Sales too.__________________ If you can make/print proxies, i will trade for them. Also looking for Microprose MTG computer game. Will trade for that or consider buying for cheap.

That's what ours started with "Object not related to ...blah blah blah". After uninstalling and installing the new version, it ran mostly fine.

You can try using Google with your search and site:magictraders.com. There's not a way to make the type of search that you want with the search tool here.

Yay, I just passed my rules advisor test! 96%, only missed a question because I got sloppy and didn't look at what triggers exactly it was asking about in regards to Stifle (one was a mana ability)
