quote: 302 posts so this will probably never get read eBay started this global shipping program to help US sellers along in selling internationally. I have very little idea how it works, but I think it's that sellers can just ship everything to a US address (and thereby end their responsibility for the item, other than probably not-as-described items) and then eBay will take it from there to ship internationally.And since eBay is the one shipping internationally there are probably import charges and shipping charges that you wouldn't see from normal sellers. Not totalyl sure, though.
Let's make sure it gets read. Interested to see how they push M14. Zac Hill's influence on the Limited Aspect of M13 made it so fun to draft. The appearance of Slivers makes me think M14 will be a bit of a dud as far as Limited is concerned.

To be honest, combat tricks and removal options are what make or break limited formats. M13 was so fun because just about every color had easy-to-access tricks and removal that made combat extremely important. As long as we don't get another AVR-type format (uncommon bombs with extremely limited removal), I'll be happy.

M13 was pretty boring, as are all the base sets imo.

Yep, they are supposed to be less complicated so that newer players pick up the basics faster.

Yah, core set Gps are fairly weak. I'm Not a huge fan of sealed Gps in general, even though I feel fairly comfortable playing them.

Yep. They're indistinguishable from the regular ones.

Sadly this is true. It would have been kinda cool for them to run alt-art on the DM duals like they did the guild gates.

How rare I actually agree with you on this one, WOTC def missed an oppritunity to have done something pretty cool.

I have a feeling this would have kept prices from falling as much, which appears to have been the goal. If they had different artwork or symbols, a small percentage of people would value them differently than the batches from RTR/GTC, especially if one artwork looks better. I think the way they did it was best for tanking the prices of shocks.

Probably at the bottom left corner on the COLLECTION tab. I see something that might be a deck editor.

Not randomly losing because your opponent randomly latepicked Hivestone? Priceless.

This makes it much more likely than Thoughtseize will be reprinted in Theros. I also think that Hierarch will be in FTV: 20. And Crucible of Worlds or Damnation will headline the EDH product in the fall.

It started HERE from a poster who has a really good reputation on spoilers. And Salvation has added it to their spoiler which I would think takes quite a bit of validation. Take all of that for what you will, but it wouldn't be too unlikely at this point.

Gotta love this. He doesn't mind adding "something small" but only when he's up +$1000 in trade. Added: I know that I'm "leaving out some context," but this is just for laughs. No hard feelings. To be fair, isn't upping someone else's offer on sales thread with an offer to pay more than listed price against the rules (turning thread into cash auction)? Once again, no hard feelings.

Meh. I learned long ago that you seem to have some beef against me so I stop caring about what you said. I even tried to help you once with insurance information to ease the tension between us and didn't receive any thanks. So yeah, no hard feelings since I don't care for your opinion of me anymore. To be fair, I probably broke the rule by offering more than the first poster.

Man I thought that guy's offer looked terribad. I was like, I wish I had the Goyfs!So it's cool when other people go for the $1000 profit trade, but not gaea? In public no less...

Meh, if anyone else posted that same thing, I would have quoted it just the same. So the "beef" that you mention, isn't a beef at all. If you can't see the absurdity in "something small" when you're a $1000 up and have a small chuckle, it's all the same. Glad you didn't catch any feelings. If MOTL didn't have that rule, I would have posted "4 foil Goyf and I'll throw-in something medium." I'm not sure if the poster is legit or not, but I'm sure the poster should be getting some PM's with some offers because of the rules. You want good deals, just like everyone else on MOTL (including me, I posted on that thread also). quote: Originally posted by hilikuS: Man I thought that guy's offer looked terribad.

When did I say it's not cool to get a good deal? Everyone wants the same things. I posted on that thread also. fwiw, you don't even need foil Goyfs. Just confirm the trade and sell the foil Jaces if/when you receive and buy foil Goyfs.
