Yeah same, I've never had an issue with them either - always had good results and good prices from them.
Yea I used them for all the other cards I needed,these were items they didn't have in stock. Has anyone used cardshark before?
a lot of great stuff came in today, both from europe and overseas!
but such a strange and funny thing just happened to me!
i was at the customs office to pick up some overseas stuff, among it 2 boxes of russian 10th edition. i have been trying to finish russian 10th edition for quite a while. on ebay and mkm is it pretty much non existent, never had such trouble to complete an edition. even japanese foil onslaught was much easier.
well, an hour ago i was 33 cards short for the complete set in mint condition, so i started opening. the first box was pretty disappointing although it had 11 foils in it. it contained just 4 cards that i didnt have yet, with underground river and sculpting steel worth mentioning and one crap rare and one crap uncommon.
that means 29 more cards to go. all rares, with the last green uncommon i had all nonrare cards from the set.
and here is the strange thing: the 2nd box! i started opening:
1st booster: i did not have this rare yet, 28 to go
2nd booster: i did not have this rare yet, 27 to go
3rd booster: i did not have this rare yet, 26 to go
i wondered, what the fuck, first row of boosters opened and already as many new cards as the whole last display!
then:
4th booster: brushland, damn, i had this already ;-/ will never finish this set..,, so i continued with the 5th booster and BOOM, again a card i did not have, 25 to go.
then i opened the other boosters and each one contained a rare i did not have.
except brushland the first 30 (without brushland 29) boosters of the display did all have exactly those 29 cards missed.
then i opened the six left boosters but until then i already had finished the set.
notable cards from the 2nd display were wrath of god, shivan reef, battlefield forge, shivan dragon, reya dawnbringer, goblin king, birds of paradise, lord of the pit.
i consider myself pretty lucky and i am still speechless how this could happen.
i have finished a lot of russian sets until now and many other english and nonenglish sets, but i had never such an irregularity.
i have opened more than one foil in the same rarity slot, i have opened upside down cards, i have opened wrong sorted boosters with a different sequence. but this is just luck i think. it is just like exactly this booster box was produced to exactly finish my set and nothing else!
wish that will happen one daywith the russian foils from 10th i still need ;-)
Congrats on your luck sack box opening skills dernestor! I bought 2 boxes of russian shards and got like 9 Battlegrace Angels.

I don't have a scanner/camera available, but here's a quick summary of what I bought at Ovino7:
- 1 foil Innocent Blood ( finishing my playset!)
- 1 foil Daze (finishing my playset!)
- 4 Risucchia Potere (Italian Mana Drains) between exc+ and nm- for the lovely price of 170 eur ( I'm no Vintage price expert but looking at ebay seems like a decent price)
- 1 foil nm Masques Dark Ritual ( for 15 eur I'll take it! :D)
- 1 NM Italian The Abyss!
There were at least 3-4 major european / non eu dealers with some impressive stock!
/sad this doesn't happen in North America aside from SCG. I'd rather have competition in the marketplace and a wider selection...

@sdematt shut up and pimp!!!! what else did you haul?
Shaddup, I'm not at home to scan them. You could post that thing with your camera, since I forgot to scan it before I sent it your way.

Small-fish stuff sure, but a lot of fun to track down and put together.
