i usually agree, but these look hot. for such kind of cards we will get a lot of different opinions, therefore i´m not sure if they carry any premium at all. but i´d rather see the artwork on mint/nm fbb seas. german or french, because their colors are the better than from a/b/u and italian fbb.
Those cards have been destroyed. I hate Rob Alexander's crappy little ink illustrations he does on USeas. He does the same thing on all of them. I've seen that a bunch of times, but usually on Revised.
The seas are quite nice.
I saw a lot of worse alteration Rob Alexander did so far...

I can't stand alters on format staples, in general unless the card is still rather cheap (like Swords to Plowshares). Drawing on Alpha or Beta DUALS is killing something inside me.
The seven cardinal sins of Legacy:
1. Discuss the unbanning ofLand TaxEarthcraft.
2. Argue that banning Force of Will would make the format healthier.
3. Play Brainstorm without Fetchlands.
4. Stifle Standstill.
5. Think that Gaea's Blessing will make you Solidarity-proof.
6. Pass priority after playing Infernal Tutor.
7. Fail to playtest against Nourishing Lich (coZ iT wIlL gEt U!).

Imagine if everyone thought the same and had the same views of collecting.
There will always be different thoughts and everyone is entitled to it, but the most important thing is to respect each other and not bully down on other peoples thoughts and passions
@Matt, what is your address, maybe some day there will be a package for you with nice beta duals just by surprize![]()
@Olesch
Where should I send that address to? :)

Only need one more to complete my set of the Judge Promo Dark Confidants. These 3 all came from really good friends of mine.
and here are a few pickups from tonight for my vintage deck:
for some reason i really like played Beta/Alpha cards, but tend to need everything else near mint
@Olesch: Nice stuff dude, it's freakin amazing!
Updates to Steel Stompy. Korean for anything that can be Korean'd, English foils for kicks (I don't think English foils are pimp but I really don't care to donate kidneys if they aint korean cards :P)

And the Metamorph/Vial foils are non-base set foils I know. But the art on the original Metamorph and Vial suck a ton more compared to the art on these so whatever :P
The Crucible is the flex slot. It could be the 3rd Revoker/Oring etc.
Decks that I care about:
Steel Stompy
UWx Landstill
Dreadstalker
DDFT (10% practice)
Mangara on MWS? You must be masochistic. -kiblast
@Metalwalker: truly a beautiful and stylish deck.
Are you into Jazz? Have a look at the Lp's I have for sale on Discogs!
Just picked up some rarities. Into 5 digits. Will try to scan some on arrival.
One must imagine Sisyphus happy.
I personally think these are the SHITNUTZZZ hot! Of course this is coming from a guy who stood in line for 2 hours to have Jason Chan alter my playset of Foil Jaces (2 Jap foil) and 3 hours to have Daarken alter my 2 Judge Foil Demonic Tutors and other staples. I find personalised cards awesome and unique. I'm all for artist altered/signed etc etc. They are one of a kind and have the "wow" factor. Some guys may think I'm crazy, but I don't plan to sell my cards unless an earthquake hit and I have to sell my beauties to survive.
The card itself is in 5 digits, or the mound of stuff you bought is over 10K? Either way, nice job!

My Russian Dark Confidant came in the mail today. So ripe
-Matt
Are you the guy who bought one of those Foil Bobs off ebay for over 1k$ ? Just askin...
