    Crazy, I know, but you'd better believe it.
  2. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    I know I have a foil one lying around somewhere in my mom's house, in a large box of junk cards. It's probably 40 or 50 euro or so, but I can't be arsed to go look for it.

    The buy-outs aren't limited to high end stuff anymore. An excellent English Legends Blood Lust will now cost you at least 9.39 euro on mkm these days. I suspect the popularity of 93/94 has...

    I've played mine in EDH. It's a card you should only play if you go for the kill. Everybody knows its price, and people will throw everything they have at you because they expect a degenerate...

    I have a foil copy of one of those lying somewhere in a box. Too lazy to go dig it up. I will regret my laziness after a reprint.
  6. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    ^ This, and before that the even better Zendikar, and before that Time Spiral block. Add to that Coldsnap for flavour, and the original Mirrodin block, and you have all the Modern legal sets which...

    MKM has foil Mishra's Baubles for under 30 euro. Don't panic-buy that shit.
  8. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    I've said it before, and I'll say it again. They can ease the pressure to get duals and shake up the format with one easy to introduce cycle. Imagine shocklands which don't give you the option to...

    The Eldrazi titans are Marit Lage's kids. And momma's not happy. Mark my words, that's where all this is going.
  10. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    Homelands was great for that too! Another more recent example of a sucky block that drew you into the story nonentheless was Kamigawa.

    Anyhow, wrt individual cards, Revised Plateau, AN Serendib...
  11. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    Everything before Rath cycle, and Urza block, has the 'good old days look' afaic. Rath cycle art was still superior to anything they make now, but the slow trend downwards had begun. The older...

    The virtues of the Spartan citizenry were well respected until well into the Modern Era. Many American founding fathers admired their civic virtue, for example. Be that as it may, their downfall...
  13. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    Then ban the two dexterity cards. The main idea is that you'd allow people to play Magic like it existed in the beginning. The fact that the 'most official body' that has presented a ban list of...
  14. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    Wizards declaring '93/94' to be an official format, which can be played with ANY copy of a card of those legal sets, would already go a long way to slow down the current rise too. It's stupid,...
  15. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    I interpreted the post as at least partially also about the present day mentality in general, so yes, I guess you could apply the same logic wherever you go. I'll readily admit my bias in this:...

  17. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    Perhaps, but then again why risk the increased scrutiny which comes with the purchase of reserved list cards, if they can just print modern staples. Nobody bats an eye at a GP when some guy passes...
  18. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    I don't need the money they're worth at the moment, so why sell now? I got those cards after the reserved list was first formulated with the understanding that there'd be no reprints, I fully expect...
  19. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    I'm happy with it. I'd lose a fuckton of value if they'd reprint duals. I've got at least a playset of each, revised, which is the version of the card which would crash hardest if they'd reprint...
  20. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    No plant has ever grown until it hit the heavens, eventually this market will crash, like every other market has crashed at one point in history. I have no problem with his occupation, but he will...
  21. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    "...If you REALLY intend to play the format (and not just with friends, because you could use proxies as well), then you either have those cards already or you have to bite the bullet. But there is...

    41 Moats at 375 a pop is 15375 dollars, shipping and transaction costs not included. The streets aren't exactly paved with Moats, but I have a hard time believing that buying probably less than...
  23. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    I'm a hypocrit (because I'm about to drop 70 euro on an Unlimited Jayemdae Tome to complete the set, while I have about a dozen more recent copies of that card lying around), but it amazes me more...
  24. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    Back in the 1990s people called me insane for getting duals at what would now be under 10 euro apiece (they were all worth the same back then, a Plateau went for virtually the same price as an Usea)....

    You compared the audience of amateur mechanics and car restoration hobbyists on one side with Magic players on the other. The use of specific authentic parts on cars was referred to as a point of...
