Is there anything new about rg tron? Or is now better matched up against the meta game?

Also played in Death and Taxes, which got a big bump from its good showings recently.

I'm just shocked that it's doubled in price in under two weeks. Last time I checked, it was 12...

I was browsing through some peoples' lists and saw a guy that flat out said "I value my staples at 1.2x TCG mid and my regular cards at 1x TCG mid. I value your staples at 1x TCG and your regular cards at .8x TCG mid." Like, wtf? I've been out of Magic for a decade and am just getting back in, but is it common behavior now to decide that your cards are more valuable than everyone else's just because they're yours?

Ha! Common behavior? Yes. Proper behavior? Not so much.

As I recall, this has been the case for years. Part of the reason why I have pretty much stopped trading online completely. Much easier to just sell stuff and buy what I want.

Why do people have a hard time telling a NM card from an Ex card? I've bought a bunch of cards from some other members and what people send as NM-Mint is a little scary.

Yup. It's really off-putting.

Agree, though there are some reasonable people to trade with so I do still do some trading, but yeah def mostly buying and selling.

Because they are trying to get a higher price and hope you won't care/notice.

The result of too many people being told that they're beautiful and unique snowflakes as children, IMO.

http://www.wizards.com/Magic/Magazine/Article.aspx?x=mtg/daily/feature/281Absolutely despise the font change. Also don't like the circular black fade at the bottom (see wall of fire). Why not just go across horizontally? Do like the collector info though.

to sum up the frame change: things weren't broken, but we've fixed them! Also, on an unrelated note. I'm looking for a playset of German Iceage Brainstorms before the 16th if anyone knows someone in the US that has a set for sale.

I don't like any of those changes. Was counterfeiting new cards really such a big issue that they had to put an ugly sticker on all of the rares?
