A+. These alters are amazing.Originally Posted by sumbahdy
Hi all. Here's my share. I took this picture for my Child of Alara EDH deckand at the same time, am using the duals for my Legacy decks. Not much on foils now just looking at Japanese cards more or less. Will try to post more soon. Enjoy.
On ebay this would almost certainly auction higher than a non-altered/non-signed version.

True. You need the blue ones! (when I had my italian mis-translated Thopter Foundries, I used to chumpblock Piledrivers like a champ. Until someone told me: Hey! The oracle text says blue thopter token! Sadly they missed the -blue- part in translation...)
Are you into Jazz? Have a look at the Lp's I have for sale on Discogs!
In crystal clear memory of you presenting me as the most retarded person on this planet on Librarities please explain me how you think that insulting other peoples preferences can possibly lead to any kind of productive discussion.
I like that Intuition a lot.

Not sure if stockpiling on those was my particularly best idea.
My contact didn't have the other ones in Russian :(
But, if anyone's got a hookup, let me know :)

How much are foil Russian Jaces going for?
Did you choose to not go foil because of availability, cost or preference?
Really cool cards though man!
I hate Foils, so I can't bring myself to foil out a deck. For me, it just seems like a gimmick. No hate on people who post foils, since I understand they're nice for you and hard to find. I appreciate them (like I would a painter who's style I still don't like), but don't buy them.
Russian Foil Jaces are probably about 400-600. They're pretty insane. I got these nonfoil for under $100, but still way more than regular Jaces. If I really wanted to, I could go Russian Foil Jaces, but I wouldn't have the deck completed in a reasonable amount of time as well, since I'd have to go find 3-4 Rus Foil Jaces that some French guy would want to part with
-Matt
Russian foil Jaces are about 700 or more.
You are and the constant run ins you have with people here make that pretty evident.
It's a fact that people over pay on really bad alters. Now if you take a look in the actual alter thread I'd say there's around 3-5 people who produce alters on a regular basis where the end product actually meets the price. I'd argue that 90% of the alters out there are pretty terrible.
You are correct in that perhaps I should have expressed myself in a better way instead of being so negative. The point of my snide remark was in that I agree with Ruckus when he states that the particular Intuition posted is worth less than a non altered one; this would be entirely different if the alter was actually good - which it is not.
Also I'm pretty positive you hold the record for being a complete ass clown towards cards people post. I feel strongly that it's acceptable for me to post my biased opinion once and a while.
Matt, nice stuff!
You really try to justify you behaving like shit with me behaving like shit? Considering your reactions when I suggested to somewhat lower your standards on your mint Korean fetish you are most definitely the most hypocritical person I have ever dealt with through the internet.
Considering the alternation topic ... The reason people overpay for those is the same reason you overpay for mint Korean or so many people overpay for strange looking cards they can not even read - an inner aspire for individuality. You really hate on people who are trying to accomplish this in another way than you?
Have fun trying to proof this.
Fixed that for you. Pimpin' ain't easy.

Who the fuck destroyed that Korean Intuition?!I would imagine not a whole lot, like less than $8.
On a price related note, I've had this for quite some time now, can someone give me an estimated value?
I would put Korean INtuitions at $60 (low-end) for less than NM so yours would fetch max $50 IMO. But that's me.

Mangara on MWS? You must be masochistic. -kiblast
April Lee - you might notice the signature. I am sick of all this hatred. Peace out.
Can we just rename this thread: oRen will decide if your cards are cool or not and then the discussion is over.
Apparently that's what he'd like. He can criticize cards, but runs away if someone else says something bad about a card he likes. That makes sense.
Tom? Is that you? I thought you were going to go work on DnD?
I do not get the point of the quotations. On the one side my criticism on a really poorly made alternation (Japanese Forces IIRC) and generally "japanizing" cards which were never printed in Japanese is properly expressed while on the other there is my response to plain undifferentiated hatred and pure stupidity. In direct comparison I was even back then in my worst times able to properly explain myself and not just nitpick, rage or spread hatred like everybody seems to think. Anyway it seems a bit vague to me to use that two quotations as the foundation for those nice conclusions but I am cool with with getting the thread renamed like this.
Sadly I was never able to just run away and leave things behind. Be sure I would if ... no - I should rather stop here.

I have serious doubts as to the authenticity of that April Lee alter. It just looks really sloppy. Either she is actually a very shitty artist with no spatial reasoning (she seriously crammed her signature onto the very edge and had to readjust the size of her handwriting, and the person on Intuition now looks like a midget) or someone decided to scribble on a card and forge an autograph.
