Quick pimping question:

I was thinking of purchasing some NM Beta Mountains, but I can't decide on which art I like / looks nicer in person. I've never been able to compare all three in NM condition together, so I'm mostly basing it off of online pictures. I'm leaning toward http://magiccards.info/be/en/286.html, mostly because I can't afford Arabian Knights mountains, but I dislike how on that particular land, the text is more of a white color and not the graphite-like gray colors on the others. What would you guys suggest?

Beautiful stuff nedleeds. I've seen alot of your stuff on here, but may I ask why you don't perfect fit?

Uh ... because waste of time? I'm not selling any of my stuff so condition is moot. I power shuffle my vintage deck. It's hard to riffle shuffle in double sleeves. Finally I keep my cards in 9 up binders and you can't stuff 4 perfect fitted cards in a pocket. I also don't own "a deck" I own 4 of almost anything you'd want 4 of, that's a lot of things to perfectly fit.

For long (6+ round) vintage events I'll double sleeve just to keep excessive amounts of table dirt from messing up signatures on my cards.

@Vishen sick tokens! throw me some Golems!

I've seen a lot of gold sigs on your stuff, nedleeds. My metallic sigs get some serious wear even in double sleeves, how do you keep yours so nice?

Long time lurker first time poster. After seeing the original pimp thread at the Vintage forums on SCG back in like 2005ish, I fell in love with pimp stuff. Now that I finally have the income to support such pimp here I am. I tend not to like foreign cards unless they are German, or FBB duals. This is my start.

New arrivals for RUG Delver. Volcanic is Italian and one Stifle is German.

Legacy Storm combo. A black border Trop is incoming and the Volc can be swapped with the one above. The fetches aren't pimp yet. Getting a set of foil tarns and Deltas for Rug next and then that'll be fixed. I apologize for my unpimped lands. I've got two more packages coming and I'll post when I get them. Feels good to finally contribute.

Since I received from very good news last week, I decided to treat myself just a little bit.

At SCG Seattle, I saw a gentleman with a binder full of Summer Magic. We got to talking and it turned out, he opened it all back in England with a bunch of his buddies in 1994, and all of it was pretty nice. Hurkyl's Recall, Copy Artifact, Basic lands, and a ton more. I traded for a Summer Island as a treat for myself, but it was nice to see someone who was actually THERE and saw it happen.

If Chaos Orb turns over completely at least once during the flip, and touches the chosen permanent, destroy that permanent. Then destroy Chaos Orb.

Had a quick Beta question:

I ordered 8 Beta Mountains http://magiccards.info/be/en/286.html from ABUGames. 7 of the 8 lacked the white dots on the bottom border. I did some light research that indicated that the additional basics added in Beta are darker and are supposed to lack the white dots, however, one of the Mountains did have the white dots, and I'm not sure which is correct here.

Should none of them have white dots or is this one of those random printing errors? I'm tempted to buy an 8th without the dots, but I'm really not sure here. Is anyone here a Beta expert who can chime in? Much thanks.

Cards that lack the dots are the ones that were forgotten out of Alpha. Ex. Beta Volcanic Island doesn't have the white dots.

I think the missing ones were Circle black, Volc, and one of each basic land, if I recall.

So does that imply that the last one (with dots) might not be a real, or a weird printing error? I sort of doubt it's a fake given it's a basic, but I could be wrong.

I've been a fan of imgur.com (http://imgur.com) for uploading photos lately, you don't need an account. Imgur generates BBCode formatted text too that you can just copy over here. I think the image limit per post is 11 or something, but you can always just make multiple posts.

Hello,

my name is Mario and I am (was) a foil addict :smile:

I am also a real fan of this thread and have been lurking it for far to long without any real contribution. To make it up, I hope you will enjoy some neet pictures of my legacy, modern, edh, cube foils. It has been a real blast acquiring this collection. Numerous hours spent on ebay sniping for auctions, traveling to events hunting for rare foils (goblin matron I'm looking at you), annoying dealers at GPs to lower the prices on foils. Good times.

But as with any transition to real adult life, comes the shift in priorities and I'm afraid Magic gets on the short end. I do feel kind of bad, owning a foil Goblins, Time spiral/Solidarity, Monobrown, Mighty Eskimo Quinn, Slivers deck, Aggro loam, Charbelcher deck and never taking them for a walk in a real tourney.
Before starting to dissolvie my collection I decided to make a fotosession, kind of to mark a milestone to my Magic collection, devotion and fanatism. Without further ado.

Ladies and Gents, the collection:

Perhaps so many tiny pictures above are a bit hard to look at so feel free to browse the Album with larger pictures here: http://imgur.com/a/AoqTJ#0

Also, I'm not quiting Magic entirely, I did leave my self my foiled pauper collection (lovely casual format). Maybe when I free some time I'll snap some pictures again, but don't know if that is going to be that interesting as posts above :)

If I can be real for a moment, that is probably the biggest ratio between collection quality and photo quality in this thread, you should do a better job documenting your collection otherwise it is just a disservice.

Hi there,

here are a few decks I'm working on right now. TinFins is already in japanese non-foil, ANT is almost finished and same goes for the Vintage and Legacy Dredge-deck. Almost every card I'm missing right now I'll receive next month I guess:

TinFins MD:

It's nothing special, but it's mine deck and I like it.

Goyfs: They will stay like that. I got them for a life of a tree in the forest (in all honesty, it's not like anyone heard it screaming), and there's some story behind them.
Duals: Yes, they are Unlimited.
Missing Volcanic is on its way to a new owner, I hope it'll get there safely. The other one is on it's way to me. And I also hope that it makes it safely

Lots of good stuff lately!

My contributions, I fully expect real pimpers to chase me out with torches and pitchforks. Unloading my Magic chaff has allowed the funds to upgrade what I have, going for oldest English, non-foil, printing now- I'll be the first to admit that it's not all that pimp compared to what's been posted here.

Searching for Unlimited Mountains and Islands to match my Volcanics- the P3K island will fill that role nicely for now. 4th moon on the way, still looking for a fourth Beta Bolt.

Once I toyed the idea of going full German, but I finally admitted to myself that more than one language in a deck is not all that appealing in my opinion. At least that's what I'm telling myself to get out of blowing serious cash on an all-German FBB manabase :rolleyes:

Honestly, have never seen nor heard of that before outside of its probable existence as a result of some other random miscuts surfacing.

As for value, I got it for slightly more than a grand (and that is what I was offering for others like this), but would likely have gone higher if I needed to. At least this can be used in Vintage if needed.

I posted a picture of a horziontally miscut German Dreadnought like 5 years ago on librarities. The card was miscut enough to figure out that the card next to it was Teferis Isle.

Much like this Hymn I picked up for no particular reason. Also have a look at its defaced sibling on MCM.

Playable cards are usually money. Playable cards get riffle shuffled :)

@Whippor

I got everything done on Friday and was home in time for corn flakes. By home I mean a bar attached to Card Kingdom, by Corn Flakes I mean half a dozen $10 local brew 9% ciders.

Every artist was cool, Mark Nelson was kind of fucking crabby considering I only had a measly 8 cards. He mutter something about only signing one card and I said -- well I don't see a tip jar what's appropriate? and he just kept muttering about his bullshit and signed them. MoK insisted on using her own little fine point pen but whatever. Everyone else I tipped pretty well (anyone want any Girl Genius books?) and they were cordial and cool with me.

The backs of those basics are normal too, so no chance of being fake miscuts. They're better classed as misprints, which increases value too.

The two or three island/swamp pairs in front of this one are even better :)

While not nearly as pimp as some others, I realized while playing in Milwaukee that I had about 1/2 my deck either foiled or signed, so I thought I'd post it here. The stuff in the front left is foil, middle left is signed. Everything else is vanilla.

The basic lands are foil MPS lands. Plains is Time Spiral, Island is Zendikar, Swamp is Lorwyn. I might switch them all to Time Spiral though, because it kinda sucks to have 2 with mana symbols and one with big honking "MPS" in the text box. The ones I'm currently using have the artwork I like best from the MPS sets. Well, maybe not the Plains. I think it's very unique looking, so I stick with that one.

The SoFF is from the sideboard.

Since I'm nearing the end of my playset project, and since I have a really good memory, I'm going to share this 3.5 year journey with you guys and how much I spent and from where.

I've gotten duals from 5 minutes away to 5,000 miles away, spanning from 2007 to 2014, but really only started hard in 2010.

The list is as follows:

Bayou - Adrian, Surrey, 200 (inked) - 2010
Bayou - Adrian, Surrey, 220 - 2010
Bayou - Anssi, Finland, 300 (Anssi usually let me pay on layaway, same with Jose and Scott) - 2010
Plateau - Wil, Surrey, 230 - 2012
Plateau - Ebay, USA, 400 BGS 8.5 - 2012

Tundra - MOTL user, USA, 450 - Same guy, 2011 in trade
Underground Sea - Anssi, Finland, 770 - 2011
Underground Sea - Mark, Kamloops, 1100 - 2013

Volcanic Island - Anssi, Finland, 450 - 2011

Cards I did own but traded away:

Plateau (to Italy)
Savannah (to England)
Tropical Island (to USA)
Volcanic Island (to Canada)
Scrublands (owned 8 total at one point...) - To USA

And I lost one Beta Taiga.
Kind of sad it's all coming to an end. This is not a "look at how much I spent," but more of a historic musing over how prices have changed.

Hate you right now. If I did this, I'd look insane. However, I'm probably going to complete my set in 1.5 years, compared to your long term 4+. If you want that 4th sea, let me know ;)

I am currently missing Stifle's, Brainstorm & Misdirection and Lightning bolt (JR) Foils and the way prices have been going, I am sad that it will probably be left that way. EE's have been coming in post and 2/3 of Pithing Needle's have not yet arrived neither. 3 Grim Lavamancers are still on their way too.

Well yeah, nothing too impressive, but I like the deck, should probably change inner sleeves on Brainstorms, Fow's & Stifles, they look filthy!

Cheers,
Jani

I'm pretty close to my own money shot too, but I think you'll beat me there (your duals vs my deck). :)

ANyway, these are island/swamp combinations I was considering before deciding I had better. The foil miscuts are a repost, just a better scan. Any love for these?

It's a damn shame Jitte, TNN, and Onslaught Fetches don't come in Russian, because those would be sick as hell. The Jaces are pretty for sure. Are you willing to go for full Russian and throw down 15k? Is it worth it to you?

Next to all the rest of the cards, I think the Ponder has to be my favorite simply because I would think finding a foil would be much easier than finding the rest of those cards. Beautiful deck. :smile:

P.S. You should white border the Ponder for added value. :laugh:

Nope. I made my mind up a while back not to spend that money on RU foil Jace. I'd rather have a bunch of other stuff to play with or $15k cash.

The Ponder really isn't hard to find since there's so many versions. For some reason I just never picked one up, but that will probably change before long.

I'm not sure if this answers your question but if you look at the (Island) horizon line on the art towards the left border you will find the set symbol.

Not trying to say this in a bad way (this is pimp as all hell) but I think I would throw up if I even held this much money in cards--let alone risk taking them to a tournament.

That's just extra stuff for vintage, because I'm too lazy to reuse the same 4 signed foreign snapcasters in two formats. #wwa

My laziness reached truly epic levels when I went up to 12 DRSs, 4 german for modern, 4 russian for legacy and 4 signed koreeen for vintage. Also perfect fitting several thousand cards sucks, I should have charged people to come look at my stuff and sleeve it.

Alright, Tom Sawyer.

Nonetheless, sweet stuff. I appreciate your Oldest Version, Foreign Language, Signed style of Pimping. Best way to do it, imo.

How rare is that Tempest Plains, I wonder?

Well. After my knee surgery I don't have much to do but sit around my house ... so I just decided to do it for once and for all. While it's fun riffle shuffling my power and destroying my cards eventually I'm going to have some beard spill a Diet Coke and maybe perfect fits will save me.

Welcome to the dark side, Ned.

For those without weeks to spend, I recommend phasing in the perfect fits as you go, one deck at time.

Currently in Phase 2 of my operation here which means eventually getting everything double-sleeved in my deckbuilding binders, so I never have to move things in and out of the outer sleeves, unless there is a lot of wear and I have to resleeve a deck for a tourney. Thanks Potomac Distribution for making it possible.

In other news, Ron Spencer is still awesome. A new Will and a couple other random cards :)

This is absolutely fantastic. I'm not sure why I like it so much, but it is really sweet.

As for the double sleeving, it saved me once before so I swear by it. I saw Charles last week with a nice 44 oz. 7/11 cup on the table and was getting a little nervous last week

I let some FNM noobs help me resleeve my collection once. They ended up accidentally bend testing every third card or so. On the plus side, my cards are real so... yay?

Update on my altered Miracles-deck. Altered Terminus/Entreats are stuck somewhere in the U.S. and won't arrive for the BoM. At the BoM I will receive a JTMS from BigUp - but this is what I am working with now.

The only questionable ones (in my opinion) are the lands. When 4 or 5 are stacked up on the field I could see it becoming confusing. Otherwise it all seems fine

I know - that's why I've been starting to play "Lands up front" while not building any stacks. We will see how it goes.
But I've been playing with altered Miracles for 3 GPs now, never had any problems with Judges- only with players, but this didn't matter, due to not having any problems with Judges.. :D

Thanks, anyways :)

I started playing "Lands up front" because I was tired of people putting their hands all over my cards or just grabbing them nilly willy whenever they felt like it. With the lands inbetween they can't reach and have to ask. Stupid reason maybe... but still why I prefer that card placement method.

This kinda seems shady, trying to stop them from reading cards, and them being reminded of things they could've missed? Could be.

It's their own damn fault for not knowing what the card does. The text isn't even especially relevant for that between foreign cards, errata, and access to Oracle text via judges.

Indeed, but it's their right to read any card in play any time they want. If there is still relevant text on the card, get over the fact that they will be handling your cards. If you don't like it, don't play altered/foil cards.

It's their right to read the cards, yes. I am more than happy to pick it up and hand it to them. It's not their right to snatch it up smack my cards around or be rough with them at their own will because they forgot what it does from the last time they read it 10 seconds prior. I'm just not a big fan of people roughly handling my cards at their pleasure.

None of that seems egregious, except that I went back and checked the previous posts, nothing was said about them being rough with them. It felt as though only the fear of damage was presented. If they are rough, call a judge. Until they are rough with your cards, let it go.

I've had people be rough with my cards in the past. I see no reason to test the waters with each individual I play against.

It's why I always ask if I can touch peoples' cards, especially during stuff like Thoughtseize. I don't like it when people touch my stuff, so I always make sure it's okay.

Picking up a Summer Plains tomorrow at a Denny's. Classy as fuck.

I think the worst part of dealing for a Beta Tundra in an IHOP was the fact that I passed the money very discreetly, and he just whipped it all out and counted it out loud. In a full IHOP. On Saturday morning. With a really sketchy looking busboy who looked like he would've cut that guy and run away with $800. Getting in $20's was a BAD idea, FYI.

Another time I drove out to a bus stop in the middle of suburbia at 2am because I got a text from a friend of a friend who wanted to buy a set of Goyfs, Confidants, Tarns, and Misties. Total at the time was about a grand. Sketchy as hell, but it all worked out.

I once met up with a guy from a random MTG Facebook group to sell him a Misty. He just texted me the cross streets and I met him on the corner. I stood there for like ten minutes. Then he drove up, pushed open his passenger door, and leaned over to complete the transaction. He gave me two twenties. I gave him the good stuff. I felt like a drug dealer. Some muggles walked by and gave me the stinkeye.

It was pretty awesome.

Then I turned around and walked back into the LGS. Street cred ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED.
