So has anyone bought a booster box of this? A friend and I are thinking about each buying a box but at its $300 price tag id like to know others experiences with it.

just be carefull with that "First Wave" thing as what I understood THERE IS NO DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE 2 PRINT RUNS ...

and the letter "A" on the code of the box IS NOT MEANING IT ACTUALLY IS FROM THE 1st PRINT RUN ...

but this need to be confirmed by other members ...

hope it helps ...

... and my opinion is 300$ is way too high ... as even if the guy would garantee its the 1st print run he should also garantee that you wont find any TREASURE in there at over 98% SURE ....

Were planning on buying from an actual trusted site instead of just some random guy on eBay...

But yeah, I heard the a thing and we even contacted wizards just to confirm the truth behind the treasures...before we do this were making sure it's all legit.

You actually contacted Wizards and got a response or are you just saying that? Because they've never publicly confirmed that older MTG cards were inserted into packs. (We all know they were. They've just never publicly admitted it for legal reasons - They'd have to state the odds of opening a "treasure" somewhere if they admitted that they exist.)

They neither confirmed nor denied, I just said we contacted them about it. Pretty much just said there could or couldn't be something.

$300 is again, WAY too high. you get a couple of fetchlands, and if you're SUPER LUCKY, a nice revised scrubland.

Save a little more money an go buy a sealed Revised Box.

The code is on the outside of the case, not the individual boxes.

I missed this, apparently, but from the thread it sounds like: scrublands were "reported" to have jumped out of zendikar boxes?

Why would wizards do this?

As a gift to magic players worldwide wizards did make some loaded packs. No one knows how many or what was inserted yet only 3 black lotuses were ever discovered. One right here in sunny northern California...The picture of the finder is on the wall at chicomagic.com, you cant see in the pic but its on the wall behind the wizard.

At the Philadelphia prerelease there was at lease time vault and an unlimited mox (pearl) pulled. There were a few hundred + people there. At a local draft an unlimited volcanic island was pulled.

The chance of pulling a treasure is small enough that opening sealed product should not be based on it. $300 for a zendikar box? Just buy the dual land you want and save $200-$250.
