Hi,

Damn, that looks nice, what are you going to do about Ichorids?
I want to get the whole deck in foil (expect the LED, they should be in a other language other than german or englisch; if Wizards prints it as a judge reward, I'll get a playset ;) ), but Ichorids are really hard to get. If you are lucky onlineshops or ebay just got one...Quote:

Those LED's are hot hot hot. I just picked up two Arabian Italian Cities for my build.
Italian Renaissance, FWIW.Quote:

Foil Ichorids, a few Ebay Stores have them, troll and toad has 2 for 8$ each.. and some other has one for 10$Quote:

The reason the supply is short is because Odyssey block was the start of the "limited" print runs, meaning that Wizards would print just enough to keep around for the 3 months the set was released, then completely stop printing once the new set came out. They unfortunately made this mistake with Judgment and Torment especially, cutting it far shorter than demand over time.Quote:

But the card being hot (even if it's only for casual players), made it for one of the few cards in the set to actually find, and foils were just hitting the rage in Odyssey block especially. I remember selling my two foil Ichorids off for $30 each, at least a year after the set's release.
Haha, you should have just changed the shipping method. I've just got them shipped to the Netherlands for $3.95.Quote:

I have some decent stuff, but i don't know how to post the pircures.
Take pictures and load them into your computer. If you have Photoshop, open them and go to "File > Save for Web and Devices" to reduce them to a more efficient file size. Go to Photobucket and make an account if you don't have one. Go to "Upload" and find your picture. When it's done, click the url under the picture involving "[img]" tags, and paste that into your post.Quote:

I got two foil Portuguese Yawgmoth's Bargain (part of my collection of 40smthng Bargains), how much are they going for?
If anyone got one, I'm interested!
And BTW, Russian is tha shit! Asian is so common, don't even see it as pimp anymore.
Well, all I can say is that Torment sold terribly locally, as the 3 "local" stores at that time didn't sell very much at all; at one of the stores, the owner told me that it was the worst selling set pack-wise since Homelands for him, so... *shrug*Quote:

Oh, and @dlevsApiJ, BB REBs are only pimp if they actually say Instant for the card type. Just saying.
In all honestly I have been picking up beta duals and power recently and nothing compares. Most things that are cool don't even appeal to me if they aren't expensive because I know I could easily get them. I don't have a scanner atm since i'm at college, but I'l get some picks up whem im back for thanksgiving.Quote:

Give it :>
I'll post my manabase, when my last Japanese Fetchies are receiving here :>
20 Japo Fetchies
16 German.Limited U-Duals
Be prepared ;)
Yeah, its good they are WB, when i will board them out for Spree's, they are very easy to find ;). Also my Land (dont want them FBB) cause i can search them fast with Land Grant, cause they are WB (Unlimited).Quote:

Hey guys, I just picked up a couple more Foil Chinese Tarmogoyf's. That mean's my 4x S-Chinese Tarmogoyfs are going to be up for sale. I'm also considering letting go of the English playset too, but I dunno yet.
I'd like to get $35 a piece for the S-Chinese, which is $140 for the playset. I'll cover shipping and insurance...within the U.S. and Canada.
Alpha REBs are misprinted. The Alpha ones were printed as Instants, and Beta ones were corrected to be Interrupts. Since interrupt is no longer a card type, Alpha are in higher demand.Quote:

Edit:
A moral quandary:
I have enough cash to buy a box or Lorwyn and some singles or a bunch of Lorwyn singles and an Signed Italian Moat.
Given that I may be enlisting in the Navy soon... which should I do?
That Moat is both pimp and will be useful for a long time...
But I LOVE opening booster boxes... a lot and I will miss it.
