If Nedleeds finished his set, you're in line for the Korean Vet, 'Hod.
Did you find anything in those boxes I'd like? :P

In honor of the Vintage Champs today at GenCon (no live coverage! Boo! :frown:), I've decided to finally get around to posting some Vintage stuff. Enjoy!
Power, etc.:

Non-english staples (I like German and Russian):

I don't usually play Shops, but I still pick up random pimp cards in case I change my mind:

I've been on this Dredge kick recently...
http://www.mns-images.org/aahz/magic/bazaarcity.jpg
So I've been trying to get all the non-Arabian Nights dredge cards in funny moon languages (read: non-English) to make it extra trollish. :tongue:
I've still got a ways to go, but here's what I've got so far:

And you can't play Dredge without zombie tokens:

Now I'll close with some black bordered Duals:

OMG I need those scathe zombies! they are amazing
I approve of the tokens. All the decks look super nice as well.
I need the Russian Thoughtseize. Any chance you can meet up with nedleeds and trade it to him? :P
-Matt
Thanks. I stole your idea for the tokens (I went with Alpha because they are way sexier than Beta, but my preference is probably obvious based on my selection of power).Quote:

ya, everything is FOIL if you cants see the shining part of it ( incl. the Bob's ). The only thing that is not foil are the JP signed delta's which i just swapped them from reg eng. Foil's. (i prefer regular JP over Foil eng. )
/enjoy
Nice!
Sweet mother of god...Just korean land taxes alone are worth something like $40+ currently and you got them for .50 cents? Wow. Same with humility being 40 and it sounds like you went infinite. I would give almost anything to be given an hour with those boxes by myself. Sounds like you went infinite. I'm surprised at Toad doing this, wonder why they didn't just look through and pull out cards of value and sell them to other dealers for a lot more than 50 cents apiece but maybe they felt like being generous (highly unlikely.)Quote:

That just seems like mismanagement. If time was taken to go through stock and fish out gems like what nedleeds was able to pick through, then it appears that some financial problems could be mitigated.
They have been sending clearly EX-EX+ cards as NM while they had a very good grading scale previously (fine grained and well graded EX+/NM-/NM scale). I had to send my last two orders back because of the condition. I didn't know they were having financial problems, this explains it.

Man, I wish I went to pick up gems like that :(
Any Korean Manabonds you wanted to fish out for me?
-Matt
I have had the same experience. I bought four NM Beta Pestilence for a pauper deck. They arrived EX+ at best.Quote:

Turin's deck is insane btw. Those dark confidant alters are freaking insane. Can't say I like the signatures, but that's just my taste.
I got these on Saturday...

I'm usually not a fan of signed cards, but when I am - they're always signed in silver/gold calligraphy pens. Nice Flusterstorms!
