It doesn't look like War Zone to me at all.
But otherwise, yeah.

I guess cards are also real-fake.

QFT...

I would have no problem with major dealers being as picky as they are when they buy if the cards I received in return were equally scrutinized.

Typical dealer Near Mint?? At this point I'm pleased when the card isn't folded in half!!!

In my newbie trading days I made tons of offers without looking at addresses and went through with some intl trades just to avoid bta even though I tried to stay US only. I'm glad I did since it made trading worldwide less scary

I have never lost cards sending International. I have even sent to Italy! I have lost several packages mailed here in the states....

I don't think it's a "legit" description at all.

Since it's people being shady and people also trying to cover their own butts against condition chargebacks. I understand why you want to describe everything NM-SP, but really just one of the frustrations with buying on eBay.

Who doesn't want NM money for SP cards?

When did Marsh Flats go up? I traded for a bunch of Zendikar fetches not that long ago at less than $10 a piece.

No, because new cards don't get mangled that often. And old cards are buttoned up. It's the same reason that those guys who put up "BUYING ANY AMOUNT OF PLAYED U SEAS!!!" for some stupid low price never get any.

I checked my records and realize the trade I was referring to was in January 2012. I made a large trade including 9 Zendikar fetches at around $10 a piece. Glad I held onto them.

I am not really too sure. I posted on the trade/value board about them and one of the posters mentioned SCG bought out a lot of people on them and jacked the prices.

You know, being dicks as usual.

I'm not claiming it's canon, but the whole quote was about when MM was announced as not containing Zendikar block and it made a lot of sense.

And said user hasn't given me a reason to think he's full of crap or anything.

Is it not something SCG does?
