[DO NOT TRY TO SELL IN HERE] Pimp Legacy Decks

[oRen]

I want to also do something with the Pyroblasts, the Ill-Gotten Gains and the Diminising Returns but non of the original artist replied yet :(

where is the point in playing pyroblast over reb anyway ? there are rare situations where it matters that you can not misdirect reb to lands ...
i would be surprised if you get kaja (or richard thomas if you go for reb) or la williams sign or alter your cards these days :P

Every time I visit MCM I weep a little since I live in the states and have no friends overseas.

there are enough people on this internets who are willing to 3rd party ... just find someone :P

Pyroblast can be used to increase the stormcount by casting it on anything. REB can not.

MKM is always overpriced though from my experience.

Thanks! Meltdown is on the way but Xantid Swarm seems not to exist on this planet...

@Para - nice strand, i prefer lorwyn ponder (esp. if running thoughtseize) but very nice deck

[guifig]

who made this playmat actually? Will you share the name of the artist with us? Its very nice!

I will up a picture of my new playmat and current pet deck tonight also.

His name is Carlos John, he's a South American artist who usually does alters in Legacy tournaments. He's a very nice guy :)

This is mostly because the platform is pretty easy to manipulate. People are trying to push prices all the time. For example ... you can take any amount of cards in your shopping cart and then they are not visible for anyone else as long as they stay in your cart ... there are some more examples like this but nevertheless you are able to make really nice purchases with some patience.

stuff i got in the past two or three weeks ...


city - 22.50€ incl shipping on mcm
grim - 85€ incl shipping on mcm
strip - private purchase

i also got an alpha cut ice age swords to plowshares on mcm for like 5€ which i sold for quite a bit more ...
a friend of mine got a korean necro for like 10€ shipped ...
there are much more stories like those :P

[sdematt]

I'm mainly concerned about European sellers charging Euros for dollar prices for Beta duals (market value is X dollars, but they're charging X Euros). So stupid.

-Matt

[jamesh]

as LSV once said, 'our power's gone to Europe and it ain't coming back' - just as valid for duals
anyway, U/W:

any questions?

[dernestor86]

many people on mkm are just crazy, i dont know what they think about their prices...probably nothing, and then they wonder why the stuff remains unsold for a year or so lol.

soon i´ll upload some scans of my vintage storm deck, it´s ready now!
and got a damn load of new other random stuff aswell!

[MoxMonkey]

New german goodies that just arrived!:

[keys]

UR Painter stuff:





NO RUG stuff:




Next up... my Vintage deck

[keys]

I know it's not Legacy, but there's some crossover appeal.










I know the Thoughtseizes and Brainstorm are weak, and I hope to complete the French foil Dark Confidant playset eventually. It's a work in progress :)

[sdematt]

Nice stuff!

Very true, the Euro really took a lot of our cards. It's very unfortunate, but I'm trying to bring it all back :P

[Antonius]

tsk, tsk, everyone knows spanish > french.

[sdematt]

No no, I'm pretty sure all of us (except you, Valter) rate Spanish, Italian and Portuguese at the absolute bottom of the Latin languages barrel. English and German and French seem to stand out, as far as I recall most people's opinions.

I'll be honest, I don't see a ton of people going after Italian FBB's, or Spanish cards in particular (except Spanish IoK, get it?). To each their own. I know Mr. C loves Portuguese, but he's also from Brazil :P

-Matt

[yawg07]

I love Italian cards, personally.

For me, it is Korean > Italian/Japanese > Russian > German > The rest > Chinese

I'm a fan of Spanish cards. But I was born in Spain, so I have that excuse.

German > French > Korean = Russian > Japanese > Portuguese > English = Spanish > Chinese > Italian

I used to despise foreign cards altogether, but after I picked up FBB duals I started to appreciate German/French.

@Liam:do you born in Spain?
Wow that`s nice! :D
