What is the best place to get the same basics for 50 qty for cubes? I have been searching for specific arts and don't mind paying $.10 for them, but I can't find any place that has 50 in stock for arts I like (old borders). Particularly, I am talking about mirage lands

might be hard to get it all from one person. 50 ea of one kind. (Unless it is something more popular like zen full art basics)

Most people dont like digging through basics unless then at .10 ea (at least that's my personal opinion)

u can set up a buylist here and buy from various people
i.e

50x Plain#235 Odyseey
50x Swamp$244 Mirage

etc.

Real men use GURU lands. By real I mean "insane".

Have you checked websites like StarCity, or T&T? They are usually overpriced but basic lands should be cheap...and a large company like that might have the quantity your looking for.

I considered it when I put my cube together, but decided against it because then I wouldn't have them to play with in constructed formats. I figured i only needed 40 of each and I was about half way there so it wouldn't have been that bad. Then the prices doubled, so no chance now, lol.

Someone did it.

I went with matching Unlimited Basic lands. My entire cube is proxied. So when someone has to remove all the basics from there deck at the end. They just look for the white bordered cards. It works really well.

If I was building a cube, i'd use:

- 5th Edition Forests
- Mirage Mountains
- APAC "Tombstone" Swamps
- Portal 2 Islands
- Odyssey Plains

When I actually ran my cube I just used random zendikar lands because i couldn't decide what i wanted to use. Its kinda fallen into disrepair so I never moved forward w/ the basics. I think if I really wanted to push my cube back into service and "complete" it, I'd either get foil saga lands or foil 7th edition lands (avon art mostly). Those I feel are both fairly unique but moderately priced. There is also the random mirage basics, but meh!

Where to get them? I've got no clue. I'd say use TCGplayer and see if they can match you w/ any store that might sort their lands.

I'm just using Old Frames foil lands because I prefer the old frame. Nothing Uber special .
