Which part? The Article or the fact that what it talked about is even happening? __________________

Am I the only one that noticed in the ad that they put the fact that her character name is "Santiaga" in like, big angry red bold letters?Are they somehow suggesting it's also bad that she appears to be a HISPANIC orc assassination rogue? I wonder what they would have done if they decided to find out about her WoW character and then discovered that she played PvE Alliance as a Human Holy Paladin.

*sigh* opened a RTR box with 3 mythics and none of them were terribly exciting (i.e. crap).

yah, people are kinda dumb when it comes to shipping. They don't understand that machines will bend the package so things like toploaders can just pop right through the paper. I try to never send in a PWE unless the other party practically begs. Its just not worth the potential trouble down the line. Beyond that, if your order isn't large enough to make $2 shipping worth while then I probably am not really interested in the deal any how.

So much of this....also hate turning down big trades cause they are cheap and refuse to use anything but PWE... __________________

if they're not haggling on the prices I often just cover shipping or offer to split shipping if it makes it round well or such. Losing just a couple % of a deal isn't much of an issue.

Thanks for pointing this out. I don't think I have ever been more mad at our political system. Gosh, I hope none of the Republicans play fantasy football.

I think i just figured out why I'm not a great payer.
I felt bad when they first turned swamp and some critter and my T1 played spreading algae with an Urborg in hand.

It is all a matter of what you are trying to stop as ground seal does save you from surgical/cranial extraction but doesn't do anything to relic of progenitus or jund charm or rest in peace. I know for a while last year I was using Leyline of Sanctity to protect myself from getting blown out by Jund Charm, Tormod's Crypt, and Bojuka Bog, but I'm not sure if that will work in current modern.edit: If it is just one key card you could try pull from eternity to get it back and in the grave where you want it!

Well the other option being $6 bubblemailer I think I know what I choose. Well its probably just 1 certain seller but he keeps overcharging and haggling shipping costs while getting premium price for the cards im buying on top of it.

You could always mark the envelope "non-machinable". I think it's only $0.20 extra for that so something around $0.65 in a PWE.

I see that she has an unusual haircut. Is there something in particular I should be looking for? http://www.wizards.com/magic/magazine/article.aspx?x=judge/resources/sfrlegacy quote:

So I have a lot of cards that I bought some years back that have appreciated quite heavily. A lot of these are legacy cards.What's the best way to turn these into cards I need? Is Auction Site the best way? I get much higher buy/sell prices there than I do here, and not too many people are interested in trading for japanese wastelands and the like here.

Auction site as in Motl's auction? That is usually dead. __________________
