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

[MoxMonkey]

Some goodies I picked up today:

[sdematt]

I love Diamontmox. I tried to get a playset for a while, but everyone wanted infinite. But, I always announce my Mox Diamonds as Diamontmoxen just for fun

Does anyone else announce pimp cards in the language they're written? As in, does anyone cast "Tropeninsels" instead of Trops when they're playing FBB's, or is it just me? Don't worry, I'm not so much of an asshole as to announce "BETA Taiga"

I do that for languages that I know/can pronounce (e.g. German, French), but not for those that are gibberish (Russian, Korean, Japanese, Chinese). So in EDH, I play Daemonisher Lehrermeister (though in Vintage I play BETA, so it's just regular DT). Obviously, you never announce A/B cards. That's the whole point of playing them.

Yep! And then I get the "Is that Spanish you're speaking?"

What's infinite like in finite numbers? They go for like 20€ here in Germany. FTV and decreasing popularity of Lftl based decks really made them drop in price.

in relative numbers only the korean version was ever expensive. in absolute numbers none of these is expensive.

only expensive moxen are the original five and jap foil chrome mox as well as russian foil mox opal (i got 175$ for mine and could easily have gotten more if it wasnt involved in a bigger trade).

the rest is maybe expensive to 14 year old boys. man, what would i have done when i was 12 again now. back then with 11-12 years duals were so cheap and so were P9. when i see this young kiddos now they have only crap cards. poor young generation :-(

they need to reprint some cards as kiddo edition lol xD

Pimped TES to be posted later this week. Picked up some French fbb duals at GP Lincoln and loads of foils.

[sdematt]

At the time when I wanted them, all my sources wanted $50 when regular Mox Diamonds were like $35. I just wasn't interested in them at $50

But, 20 Euro, that I could handle.

You know it. Faux-Pas your Zwang is my all-time favorite.

What about Retard?

There might be Justification for that.

where´s the big difference between 35 and 50$? it´s not like the difference between 350 and 500$...

german is harder to get than english over there, so a premium has to be accepted in general. havent followed german mox diamonds on ebay, but i bet if someone sells them there they would fetch easily 15-20% premium just because of their cool name.

I don't always take pictures of my cards, but when I do, I make sure they are scanned backwards in uneven rows :)
My G/W Maverick deck:










Favourite deck, hands down. Upgrades include Basic Lands to Foil Unhinged (in the mail) and all Savannah's to Unlimited, and eventually to Beta.

[sdematt]

Dernestor, the difference between 35 and 50 is what I'm going to pay, and what I'm not going to pay. 40? Sure. 50? Nope. It's not like they were rare enough that I'd never see them again. Even then, if it's more than I want to spend, I'll find it elsewhere (not many cards are unique, so I don't have to worry).

Also--maybe this belongs in Mish-Mash, if it needs to be moved so be it--but I have it on good authority that one can wear an Iona basketball jersey.

One wonders if they're Chinese, but regardless; I kind of want one.

Good call! Unhinged foil Plains and Forest looks awesome.
Rest of ur deck too, i like clean english cards. But u should consider to buy some perfect sleeves for all these foil cards.
