All cards are overpriced now. Gone are the days of speculating a 25 cent rare that gets overlooked jumps to $10. Most things just drop and things that look good start high and go up.

Too many eyes on the cards who are sharing that information with everyone.

From my experience most stores who have cards as slightly played have very little wear.

...

If someone says send me your address and I can ship first does that constitute exchanging addresses once i send mine over?

Also if I say "its ok we can simulsend" in the same situation as above can then back out?

I've just had a trade where someone is being slow to respond and i want to be able cover my bases if need be.

My opponent has Emrakul, the Aeons torn in play.

I have leyline of sanctity in play, what happens when he attacks with Emrakul? Do I need to sacrifice permanents due to the annihilator?

What happens if I have a Solitary Confinement instead of a leyline of sanctity?

I just got some Chinese foils from them from this sale, and I was pleasantly surprised at the condition of the stuff they only had in "SP". My 7th Wood Elves had perfect edges and only a very minor amount of foil scuffing. The Burgeoning I got from them I would consider to be around EX, with a bit of whitening on the top border but pretty nice aside from that.

I was going to post about this too. A lot of the SP cards that I got from Star City are in better condition than many of the older NM cards that I get here.

Just not on MOTL!

Really, trading on here takes a lot of time. If someone has a $20 card (Geist/Snapcaster/Bonfire, etc.) that you want, they {b]trade it only towards[/b] $50+ cards (Jace TMS, Duals, etc.).

And these are the same people who offer a stack of .25-.50 rares/uncommons for one $50 card, and ignore realistic counter offers.

Also are the same people who will only trade up but won't trade down, well if your not willing to do it for me then why should I do it for you.

Cause they are dealers bro! or at least that's the mindset.

I love people trying to quote ABU prices, and say they get those on Ebay. That's always amusing.

actually dealers do far better wen trading down. When I try to profit on a trade, I'm typically trading a big card for a ton of smaller stuff. Its easier to sell a card for $2 that you got in a trade for $1 then it is to sell a card for $60 that you picked up at $30, but same percentages apply. It is more work, but thats why you are able to get the premium as well typically.

I go to the local shop and i sent him to MOTL to buy things but he's so lazy to do it. He could make so much money just picking up a collection on here. He sells so much stock he's almost always EMPTY on good cards in his case.

I had a fantastic moment last night that caught the attention of a small crowd of people at FNM.

My opponent played Krenko's Command, then Krenko. The next turn, he played a second Krenko's Command and copied it with Reverberate and passed to me, ready to make an army of Goblins that could attack the next turn and he casually remarks, "I guess I could get really blown out if you cast Bonfire."

During my draw, I peek, then flip over the top card of my library - Bonfire of the Damned. I make sure it's enough to completely clear his side of the table and he's just in disbelief.

"WHY did I have to call that out?"

The next game didn't go well and he lost the match. Next round I get paired up to the guy who was sitting just to his left and he is also playing a Goblins deck. He's basically ready to concede, having watched the other deck lose to mine 2-0. I do, in fact, manage to beat him in two games.

I ended up 3-0-1 at the end of the night, good enough to get enough store credit to pay for the next three Standard tournaments. Last week I did the same thing, so I'm "going infinite" at FNM in July; the rest of July + all of August will be free. I was playing Naya Pod, if you're curious.

That epic Miracle came off the heels of winning a match I had no business winning, except my opponent didn't realize that attacking with Odric and Hero of Bladehold didn't let him decide blockers, so I blocked both of them and killed them both in combat (losing only one Wolf token, while a second lived and a Ravager of the Fells remained as well).

This is epic!

Most people don't beleive Battle of Wits is legal because you can't randomize your deck well enough.
