Those would all be better options, except that I don't own any of them. I'm still sorely tempted by Scragnoth. It's about as janky and out-of-left-field as you're going to get. Ah well. We shall see.
EDIT: Correction: I do own a Quagnoth and a few Chameleon Colossus. Not that they're all that much better. Well, maybe Quagnoth is a contender...

I would rip your spine out, but your post holds to much logic. But, I know you clicked the link anyway. __________________

I actually would buy them if I had all the real cards...just so that I can play with exact replicas while keeping my collection untouched/unplayed. I wish WotC would print them and sell them as "legal" proxies for like a buck or two each. That way my real duals wouldn't get crazy-shuffled/bend by my moronic opponents

They'd have to print a lot. Casual players would still want for cube and proxification as well and some GB crap is worth more than a dollar or two.

Despite the temptation, I didn't do it. I ran a Wipe Away instead. Never got to use my SB tonight anyway, though.__________________

I ask my opponents not to riffle my cards. If you want to slide the sides of two halves of a deck together like a normal person shuffles with sleeves, fine. If not, I can get a judge to shuffle it.

Quick update. They just insisted on:
Our rates are right even if there's actually an option that's two times cheaper.
Yeah, yeah, sure... Seems like they lost a customer.

I'll second this....dumb people don't shuffle my deck, period. Actually walked out of a store because of this and a expensive deck, and the stores judge being dumb...lol __________________

Running out of boxes to store my cards in. I'm looking for empty booster boxes (anything pre-time spiral block). Nothing's really showing up on e-bay. Any ideas where I should go to find these?

I'd offer you mine but I'm using them... If you know of any stores that sell/sold old packs, they may still have empty boxes laying around. For isntance, I know in Ocean City, New Jersey on the Boardwalk is the Surf Mall. In there is a guy with packs ranging back to Legends and Arabian Nights. I got a few old boxes last time I was there (Nemesis, Onslaught).

Sword of Body and Mind $12 for: Force of Will (Italian) $75
Steam Vents $11 Let me know thanks
So is it just me or did this guy just somehow raise the price on Sword of Light and Shadow on me? I'll offer you a bad trade, you decline, so i offer almost the exact same trade i just change the prices to make everything worth more. __________________

They confirmed that bolt will not be back in m12 a couple months ago. There is a rumor that Chandra Ablaze is the one that is coming back, and there will be a new Jace and Garruk. __________________

dang, that really sux. I really liked Bolt as a staple in red decks. to be fair they're getting Goblin grenade, so as long as they don't print MOgg war marshall it won't be too bad I hope.

I think WoTC is trying hard to make 3/3s more relevant in standard. Goblin grenade is definitely interesting, and you will be able to toss Tuk Tuk at people's face for the next couple months. __________________

In the fist trade he used Apathyhouse, in the second looks like he used SCG. I don't understand though, that trade doesn't look that bad to me. Do people consider an Italian FoW "pimp" compared to an English one these days or something? When I unloaded all my ugly Italian crap I couldn't get 80% of English value for it. Thinking about it, I kind of want to get an Italian FoW so I can alter it with a picture of Peter Griffin and change all the text to "bappa di boopy".

Some people just haven't realized the tactics they try and pull at the trade tables won't work very well on the internet and people have easy access to information. edit: I like how the prices went from approx. even using AH (even though AH is probably off on the price of the Italian FoW) to $8 in his favor on the other trade. If you are trying to convince someone else on a trade, I don't think widening the gap is a good way to do it.
