I'm excited to see what this guy pulls. I hope he leaves a negative feedback exposing the scam.

Or that someone leaves positive feedback and in the feedback says he got the Ancestral.

Well i asked him cause that listing is a relisted auction so theres only 10 left, 4 of which have been sold, 1 To me an 3 to others, So the recall is in there in these last ten boxs he said, Would suck if it was a buddy system kind of thing, But he assured me id get value out of the box, Otherwise he'd give a refund if i didn't like the contents.... He seem's Pretty confident in his repacks

If he turns out to be honest it might be fun. Most repacks, though, are always sold by scummy scammers.

I hope your purchase is successful. But honestly its a gamble (just like buying a modern masters 2 box). The only caveat here is Wizards isn't looking at repacking with potential garbage cards. It is randomized.

This guy knows what he is putting in the boxes and for those willing to gamble, he will make more money by selling these "lots" than by listing the garbage cards that list at high prices via SCG ( or any website) with the few chase cards he advertises in his auction.

Good luck!

I can proudly say that I've never been suckered into buying a single repack. I have bought many well described collections and I'm happy to say, I've never been burned doing it that way. Very boring I know, but good enough for me.

Same here. I've bought random lots/collections, some good, some bad, but never repacks. The idea certainly is fun, but just always seemed too easy of a scam.

I never had any luck in the repacks I bought when I got back into the game. Bought $40 of repacks and the only thing of note was a masticore from destiny. Ouch.

I was curious about this and looked at the feedback history, there are people reporting that they pulled duals (trops, tundra, underground sea, 1 was collector edition :/), Jace, and one person claimed they got a mox sapphire. All in all it looks fair and I wish you best of luck on your pulls!

Thanks that's pretty much the only reason i save "f it" an gave it a shot, His feedbacks good, An i messaged him regarding chances etc, He told me if im not satisfied with my box he'll issue me a full refund, an i ship the cards back, So clearly he has enough confidence in his auctions, Who knows maybe hes the ONE somewhat legit repack seller (Besides the SCG Prices), But honestly 80% of online traders go by SCG prices anyways -.- (Except staple type cards somewhat), Idk all in all im excited an cant wait to receive, An if i happen to get a recall, Its getting framed lol, Really is a personal favorite besides, Time Walk

Let me know what you get. If it's some cool, playable stuff, I might buy one too.

What's wrong with it? I enjoy gambling and chance. I'm not set on ensuring I get my value out of it. That's not the reason I play the game. So if there are some cool playable cards included for the cost, and I get entertainment out of it, I'm ok with some bulk rares. I buy sealed booster boxes, and those are 99% crap.

Oh, there will be some cool playable stuff. You can buy a lot of cool playable stuff for $250.

I guess we know why repacks keep getting sold!

You should make a video of the opening and upload it to youtube.

The interest in this is very surprising for me.

"There is also an Unlimited Ancestral Recall in this collection (Worth over $1400.00!) "

If it's the one pictured it's worth nowhere close to 1400, not even $1400 SCG value.

I can understand buying packs with a break-even EV using SCG because hey, gambling is fun but it doesn't sound like you're going to get anything close to that.

Better off playing roulette or opening a few booster boxes

Maybe he got an alpha lotus and decided to take a vacation instead of sharing the list with us.
