My pics are too low res, but 1 is german.
A "Handelsvertrag" from "Heimländer" is badassery at its finest. Is that a reason English speaking players consider German cards to be pimp (obv. apart from them being rarer and harder to come by), being able to yell at your opponent in a crazy, angry, German voice when you cast stuff? :D

The fact that German is legible script means trying to sound out words that have so many syllables and letters is very fun to do :cool:

Speaking as someone who regularly needs to deal with the fact that absurdly long german translations of text makes user interface design tricky, I take some perverse pleasure in playing with cards that have some of those absurdly long words on them. I mean why play with a Bayou when you can have a Mangrovensumpf?

Yeah, German translations are pretty "great". I especially like how Demonic Tutor tells you not to forget to shuffle your library after you search.
I took this a while back, but, like my non-Alpha/Beta/AN/AQ/LG pimp, it seemed like small potatoes compared to most of the other stuff in this thread so I never bothered to post. It seems relevant right about now though...

German and Russian are my go to languages when I don't feel like English, so I pick up random cards when opportunities present themselves (though some cards are just hilarious in Korean, like the Sex Monkey in the photo). This is just a tiny fraction of my German collection (though much of it is stuff that isn't worth posting because it's just pet/EDH cards and the rest are for Vintage in situations where the card was not in Alpha/Beta).

He's probably talking about Import taxes in which the seller has nothing to do with those.
jjjoness'
10-10-2012, 11:44 AM
Yup..usually you're paying VAT (19% in Germany, no idea how much it is in the Netherlands though) plus an some kind of additional fee (in case the post office has to collect the money from you and has to pay the customs office in advance). 26 dollars seems like a lot though. The one time my order from overseas didn't go unnoticed, I had to pay 8€ for about 45$ worth of stuff. (approx. 19%)
sdematt
10-10-2012, 12:31 PM
Ugh, that sucks. I got mucked for $8 on $25 once, and I wasn't pleased at all. but, it wasn't from an Ebay seller, so I complained. Nothing really happened, but complain I did.

10-10-2012, 03:31 PM
Yeah, it's Import taxes + some extra stuff, the taxes only aren't so bad, it's understandable, those were about 9 dollar, the rest is the post office claiming that it's really complicated to do the whole declaring to customs thing so they do it for you, but it costs 18 dollar -.-

Um, that's why I always send birthday presents out to people. I have lots of friends, and because of this, they have lots of birthday gifts that need sending. Funnily enough, they're only always $20-25 in value, no matter how much the market may dictate. :wink:

They just bumped up the VAT from 19% to 21% in the Netherlands. But, you don't have to pay import-taxes when you're shipping between Germany and the Netherlands, right? Same tax region (EU). Or, did you order from the US?
Viridia

10-11-2012, 11:31 AM
Any complaint concerning import taxes should be made to your government and not an eBay seller. Someone in Italy purchased $100 from me and was charged $25 for customs. He was upset at me and gave me negative feedback. Of course eBay removed it since you can no longer leave negative feedback disputing customs charges. He assumed I knew Italy's customs laws. I actually had someone in Brazil buy a 60 card sleeved deck and wanted me to ship it in a white envelope to avoid customs. I can be just as accomodating as the next guy, but seriously? It's really annoying.
Viridia

I didn't give him a negative feedback nor did i complain to him, because as you said, it's not his fault.

Glad you like it coraz86 -- I have done a number of them now, and I assure you that it is actually made from exactly 20 MTG cards, I am writing an article on the how to, so maybe once I get that up I will post you a link. I encourage others to try making them; so long as you have about 4+ hours to spend doing it, that one took me about 5 hours total and it is not as detailed as some I have done.
Cheers and I had a lot of fun reading through this thread, some smoking nice cards there guys, I may have to subscribe and watch this thread more closely.

You could do it with Collector's Edition as well. Honestly, the square corners on the Collector's Edition printing might be better.
My modern deck is 73 out of 75 cards complete, so I'm going to post :)

I love it. Especially the Russian Lilianas; something about the font makes her seem extra badass.
May I suggest German Engineered Explosives, since they didn't print Fifth Dawn in Russian? Sunburst in German is SONNENERUPTION, which is super fun to shout mid-game.

Russian started at Ravnica. Russian Time-Shifted cards are the best though
I know Supreme IRL (who did the life counter). His work is very good, and I've handled his counters before. They are very sturdy, as they usually are 10 cards thick.
Russian first started at 9th edition and it was black bordered unlike the others in 9th. Though all foil cards in 9th are bb. Also Coldsnap was not printed in Russian but it was actually translated.

Thanks, Jace isn't even very good in that mediocre deck but once you have russian Jace you must play russian Jace. For some sets I find T-Chinese really hard to find (Destiny, Legacy, Masques, Invasion Block seems to be all simplified) ... the whole deck was an excuse to play Electrickery at a store full of Maverick and Goblins.

Also this is my first post in here, but I have been lurking because you guys got some nice shit in here. Pimp wise Im a big fan of Russian cards. Foils depends on the card. Someone had a foil jap Fauna Shaman in here that looked beautiful. I think my biggest pimp is a foil Japanese Deus of Calamity lol.
Also what is a good place that you guys find foreign stuff? Im trying to get every language deus of calamity foil and non foil and it is tough to find foils.

Pretty sure that beat my Korean box. My foil rare was Slaughter Games. Got a foil Electrickery & Island at least!
For notable non-foils I ended up with Jace, Steam Vents, Hallowed Fountain, Temple Garden, Niv-Mizzet, Isperia, Supreme Justice, Rest in Piece, Detention Sphere, Deathrite Shaman & Pithing Needle.
I also ended up with 1 Owl and Dryad :/ Even stranger was that I only ended up with 1 Azorius Guildgate which is stupid for being a common.

new stuff that arrived between last saturday (crypt) and today (vampiric)
...if it does not show up so well: both crypts are double signed, the signed mystical is foil, the vampiric is signed in gold and only
one of three copies i know of. markers has one, i have one, and recently another one sold on some italian pimp forum. mine came from
the usa and took more than a month to arrive. i guess all three are now in europe ;-)
vampiric and darth vader mana crypt straight went into my vintage deck, for mystical i already have one. but it´s nice to have such crypts (have a 3rd and older double signed and altered with indiana jones) and a tutor left for trading ;-)

We had joked about how someone had said in passing that "my house is nice" after I thanked them for sending a package to me. Would you find it weird looking up or having your place looked up off the package you sent/received? I'm not saying I've never done it, but has anyone else ever?
Anyway, completed this playset this week, thanks to Farang and Minileets:

Received a set of these in the mail today;
http://i1233.photobucket.com/albums/ff384/coraz86/scan0004_zpsbb099ed0.jpg
An absolute steal, via Boulder Magic on eBay. It arrived quickly (I paid for them Sunday), they're pack fresh, and the price was nuts. I can't say enough about them, and I'm definitely going back for more. Though most of what they have seems to be Standard-legal. >.<
Also, re: SupREME-10's life counters, I don't know how he sticks the cards together or if he wraps them in electrical tape or whatever, but the abacus seriously feels like quality plastic, kind of like those Texas Instruments scientific calculators you get issued in high school. I do keep in in a deckbox with my cards rather than free-floating in my dice bag, but I have no doubt that I'll be able to keep it for years and get some serious mileage out of it.

@ mini1337s: I have seen your almost all foil Maverick and your Newer almost all Russian decks in real life, and bot of them look AWESOME. I am not even a fan of Foil Cards and I like the way you pimped that Maverick deck. Bloody Sweet and thank you for sharing it with us and for beating my face in with when I was throwing some Merfolk at you.
@ coraz86: in regard to the Abacus, The Royal Assassin was the 15th abacus I have nade now (about 1 a month on average) and the guy above you (mini1337s actually got the first one as a gift because he has been instrumental in my return to MTG and Legacy MTG in particular. His looks pretty shitty in comparison to yours as I learned a lot over the 15 builds. But I will assure you that the abacus is made of 100% card stock, some glue, some paint, some wire and some beads, oh and a lot of patience.
I assure you that they hold up well to usage; but like all cards, they should not be thrown into your dice bag randomly. I keep my Merfolk Assassin in my deck box in a smaller plastic bag and it is well over a year old now and going strong - it does need a few touchup on the black edge paint; but I sealed yours with laquar so it should be even more resilient.
Oh and the Abacus' take me several hours to build to that level of quality; but as each one improved I have refused to skrimp time or effort on the next so they just keep getting better. Here is a pic of yours again from another agle; and a couple pics of #16 that I traded out before I even had the build completed.

As for the other cards, I'm actually not a huge fan of the original STP art. It's fine, but I actually like the IA one better. I guess the Deeds and stuff could all get upgraded to German, but for now, they'll do :tongue:. My philosophy has always been Russian/original Korean or best art (in my opinion) in oldest English, but I guess I could run a few German pieces as well. Hm, IA did come in German, so those STP's could be German'd as well.
Well, it was my birthday, and I didn't get myself anything yet. Hm. Maybe :)

Thanks, Should be a good addition to my new deck.
Today I received something unusual. The promotional cards to a Sifteo cubes game which parody MTG. The thing is that they were actually signed by Richard Garfield. No idea, whether they are worth of something, but I decided it would be a nice thing to pick up.

Target is to have the manabase of a BUG deck all altered. So far, Fetchlands are already done except for another Tropical Island depending on the build. Am having Jap Zen basics extended too enough for me to play Nic Fit too. Included some of the pieces used for Legacy and Vintage. Enjoy.

Thanks. 99% of my altered cards are done by Poxy. I checked with the head judges during GP: Manila if I could play with my altered cards. All of them were cleared since they were only extended and easily recognizable. The only ones that were prohibited were the basic lands w/o the name because even if the symbol is still there, not all players know that is an Island or Swamp am using. This is the reason I switched to having them extended only with the fear of not being able to use it during tourneys.
EDH tourneys are much more lax so I could get away with different art alterations.

@ sumbahdy: I love Poxy14's alters, he has inspired me to achieve higher levels with my own alters and your collection looks awesome.
I have a similar goal to yours, although I refuse to use my own alters as part of my collection although I have done trades with poxy 1-1 on alters. It will be slow for me as I am trading alters for alters or singed cards and I just started with trading in this site. Your guys decks are amazing to look at.
Locally I have no issues with using altered cards; but extended is the wtg as you can instantly recongnize the card still.
Thanks again for sharing sumbahdy that deck/collection is inspiring.

Anen, those lands look very nice and clear. I like when the whole deck is following one idea and does not divide into two between foils/ non-foils. Perhaps you could make all the non-existing-in-japanese cards in italian to make it even more clear. The forest though can stay... :wink:

Everything that can be Japanese is, this is the main theme :) The most difficult to get were the Intuitions.. That forest will stay in ^^
That 1/3 robot is just an e-tutorable enchantment/artefact killer.
And I thought about Italian but I seriously hate this language. Globo di Zur vs Zurs Sphäre? Baratro Glaciale vs Gletscherspalte? Labirinto di Ith with this big ugly "STAP" in the text box?
When I'll have time to upgrade a little more, I guess English Tabernacle & Karakas are going to join the party in order to smooth the whole thing, and maybe a Winter Mishra.

It's worth what someone is willing to pay... maybe a couple of bucks, would be more if the next card on the sheet is showing.
So, I saw roughly 100 pages back * I've been bored at work* the NM Beta Tundra that got bent due to not using a proper toploader, plus some other cards that got ripped or torn when someone opened the packages.
I'll post something tomorrow that's related to this.

Somewhat recent acquisitions. The Xantids are super difficult to find, I actually kind of screwed over Ethan Heilicher to teach him a lesson! I knew his max bid on the same Xantid Swarm we were both bidding on, so I bid $149.99. He won the Xantid at 150.00. That's why you see one on eBay thats ridiculously overpriced that high. I won another one right after that for 75$! He'll learn to never outbid me again! I picked up both of the Decays at $70, which is actually a great deal. At the time I acquired them, there was one ending that day well over one hundred.
Maybe I'll post the entire deck once I finish it (again). I still need to find Japanese foil Cabal Therapies, the only one I've found is on eBay and it's too high at 65$. The last one that sold went for 35$. I have a feeling something similar to the Xantid situation happened.
If I do repost, I'm thinking of doing the deck and then all of the cards I still own that were in the deck at some point. If I still have them they're probably pimped out.

That's actually pretty close to what you can expect to pay, Bryant. I traded/won the two I own at Mythic, at I think 70 each. Whoever got the one for 35 got a royal steal. I still need two more and they're absolutely impossible to find. 0 at GP Philly. I've been thinking about picking up that one at 65, but I just haven't done it yet. Other priorities etc.

Saito's shop has them at $42, he's currently just out of stock.

I got a lot really awkward stares of, "Is this the end...?" but also some "nice costume!" shouts. Neither the police nor security had a problem with it. Yes, I'm posing with an Erlenmeyer flask because I was in lab :P
Anyone do Halloween stuffs?

Somewhat recent acquisitions. The Xantids are super difficult to find, I actually kind of screwed over Ethan Heilicher to teach him a lesson! I knew his max bid on the same Xantid Swarm we were both bidding on, so I bid $149.99. He won the Xantid at 150.00. That's why you see one on eBay thats ridiculously overpriced that high. I won another one right after that for 75$! He'll learn to never outbid me again! I picked up both of the Decays at $70, which is actually a great deal. At the time I acquired them, there was one ending that day well over one hundred.

As much as I love star wars, 3 of those stifles are not very high quality. the stormtrooper is decent but hey I don't have stifles period, so they are still better then " stifle" on the back of a card.. :)

No offense, but Marvin, aren't you the guy who was making insanely bad offers on MOTL for foil fetches? There was someone from Europe making insanely bad offers, but I can't remember who it was exactly.

Play nice.
I got 13 fetches* 8 misty 5 tarn* last week for 17 each from a store. Now just need to sell or trade them.
Also, one of my packages from Germany should be coming today. I will throw up a picture if it does, along side other things I've picked up recently.

Marvin_Austria
11-05-2012, 11:32 AM
no, iam trading some for 75$ and even 80$ (blue ones)
thats SCG Retail price.
Was not me
Maybe you mean my catacombs, which I'd liked to buy for 32$, which isnt that low anyways.
I tried to buy some BEFORE SCG increased the price significantly for 55$, but back then that was a good price, I think.
No offense, but Marvin, aren't you the guy who was making insanely bad offers on MOTL for foil fetches? There was someone from Europe making insanely bad offers, but I can't remember who it was exactly.
ps.: Im currently buying for low prices, but I traded for all of those at a range of 55$ (before SCG) - 75$ (after)!
and Im trading my power, so its a fair thing.
I didnt buy one single of the fetchlands, just the mesas.

Sweet cards Markers. Amy Weber's alterations are amazing. Do you guys from the pimp thread have some of her altered cards or AP's you want to unload :rolleyes:?
Edit: A quick search on ebay revealed the amazing world of Amy Weber's personal eshop with a ton of altered AP's. Yahoo! omnomnom sketched Ap's.
I have a ton of Amy Webers AP's I try to send one every year as part of my Secret Santa stuff.

hi guys, anybody knows how much this card's worth?
I don't know what that card is worth, however SCG just added Miscuts & Rarities to their site. I noticed while looking through what they had that any card where the back is upside down was valued much higher than other miscuts that were just off-center.
For reference:
http://sales.starcitygames.com/carddisplay.php?product=412171 Executioner's Capsule miscut and upside down - for $50
http://sales.starcitygames.com/carddisplay.php?product=412171 Foil MM Forest off center and upside down back - for $100
http://sales.starcitygames.com/carddisplay.php?product=411605 Foil Galina's Knight upside down back - for $50
Take from that what you will =)

SCG's prices on Rarities isn't necessarily indicative of the actual market, but at least it's SOMETHING to springboard off of.
Boo at the mail not coming today.

Springboard the price of your Dwarven Soldiers (http://sales.starcitygames.com/carddisplay.php?product=413259)! It's too bad this isn't useable.
