$100 for Revised Savannahs is nuts. I bought my beta playset 4 or 5 years ago for $90 apiece! I know Maverick is popular right now, but that's insane.

It's not really a unique set of dice if there are three of them in stock. =/ __________________ "I have heard the mermaids singing, each to each. I do not think they will sing to me." -T.S. EliotRIP Ari Legacy UGB River Rock primer. PM comments/questions. Info on grad school in Phil.

More likely it's just the natural "holding pattern" that happens a few weeks before the release of a new set. Everyone is waiting to see what gets spoiled before they revise their want list, and then the trade frenzy starts over once the pre-releases start up.

I'm not sure where else to post this but...does anyone know anything about Troll and Toad's recent buy list? I emailed them shortly after it was posted requesting a sale of like $300 and I haven't heard back. Kind of unnerving to hold out when it's a bunch of stuff I need to sell ASAP.

Did you not read the part where he said he was out of town and it would take a few days for him to reply to everyone?

It wasn't in their block of rules, so if it was mentioned elsewhere I must have missed it. I was just worried because they replied in their thread that they were sending out replies "tonight", which at this point is 2 days ago. EDIT: Just checked the thread again and it looks like I'm not the only one who was wondering what's up. I'm guessing that's what you meant stu55. I just didn't want to break the rules by posting on their thread. Thanks for the heads up.

Went to magic shop today. Asked: Can I borrow some basic lands [becuase it's EDH 1v1 with some extra stuff banned?]Store guy: Our policy is not to lend out cards. This is a store that demands $5 for rebuff the wicked, so I'm going to guess they would be wanting, what, $1 each for played 5th edition islands?

I understand this because basic lands aren't free anymore with pre-release packages. If i were them i would have just asked for a deposit in case you did not return the cards. __________________ Member Since 03/28/2001 11000+ posts 1st in posts in Ontario 13th in posts on MOTL 5th in Refs in Ontario Pushing to get to top 100 in MOTL Refs

The stores here have shoeboxes full of basics... it's polite to ask to take some but you can just grab them if you want.What kind of deposit would you put on basics? A cent? lol

They don't ever open boosters/boxes or fat packs? They don't keep the lands from drafts? Never open precons to sell singles? I go to a janky ripoff of a store (well, if you want to buy singles) and they still have lands laying around. They ask for them back so they can be reused for drafts, but even if you don't... Lands are somewhat limitless. Your store should ask for donations of lands then, i'm sure a few people could help out.

I've personally got ~5-6k basic lands, any real store that even remotely runs events should have that much or more laying around, if they don't well that's on them....lazy stores, bleh...__________________ I shall have the souls of all who defy me. "Lord Crovax"

If lands are so easy to find why do some stores offer more in bulk for basic lands then commons? Small stores who run releases but don't open more than one box for singles can easily run out of lands if they have people poaching them. __________________ Member Since 03/28/2001 11000+ posts 1st in posts in Ontario 13th in posts on MOTL 5th in Refs in Ontario Pushing to get to top 100 in MOTL Refs

Supply and demand?
Stores would much prefer 400 lands than 400 Kamahl's Sledges.

Because basic lands will always be used, some commons will never be used... quote: Originally posted by WeedIan: Small stores who run releases but don't open more than one box for singles can easily run out of lands if they have people poaching them.
These exist? What kind of store that claims to sell singles only open 'a' box?
