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

[sdematt]

I should have told him he must have been a poor EDH player who's never seen a real one in his life, but that would be insulting to the many beautiful EDH decks posted on here, so I couldn't do that.

What would have been better was "I don't play with my Summer dual lands." He doesn't need to know I don't have those

So after SCG Seattle, the group of us went to Five Guys Burgers (for you non-Americans, it's a burger place that serves juicy, cheap burgers of medium quality, but they're delicious...and very American).

They serve a spice mix on their fries, so we asked for it on the side.



Then, we brought it across the border. So, I guess you could say we smuggled spice. If I remember correctly, we also did it in less than 12 parsecs.

You'll be sent to the spice mines of Kessel and smashed into who knows what. Sweet pick ups. I got Russian Bob #4 @ Atlanta GP. Now I have an angry Dunkler Mittswissen for trade.

I picked up another russian Mutavault for $28, 2 more korean Wrath of God for $15, and a few other absurd deals.

[sdematt]

Ugh, I realized my Wold tokens are not Russian. Anyone want to hook me up?

@sdematt: sweet russian stuff and very nice duals! but what the fuck is that english deed and token doing in that picture? please edit the picture and remove those garbagecards! they dont fit into that pic :-P

@nedleeds: russian mutavault for 28$ is really really nice! I was able to sell mine for 50$ each without problems! i opened some sealed product last week, but no morningtide among it.
made some nice pulls, but i only keep most of the foils, nothing else^^

also i am only 2 cards away now from my 2nd german foil urzas legacy set, i thought i would never finish it. the first one took only a few months a year ago where those cards where a bit easier to obtain.

[sdematt]

The English cards are in there just for flavour, since I can't get Russian Deeds, nor Korean :( They add to the fact Junk can gain $50

[gregtron]

Why do you guys waste so much money on pieces of paper instead of something useful?

I think you might be in the wrong part of the internet.

[rxavage]

Not sure if this is the right place. Is fourth edition french black border? And if so how do I go about acquiring a set of Animate Dead? Are there any sites that specialize in foreign cards?

[CorpT]

He who controls the spice controls the universe!

Come on, that's a way better spice quote.

I have a full set of Russian Goyfs, but I've been playing with them for too long for them to be considered pimp anymore.

He who controls the spice controls the universe!

I'm always happy when someone quotes David Lynch.

Sweet cards Matt.

Nothing is really smuggling when you're going back INTO Canada Matt...

Going to America from Canada is pretty intense, it's like a game show.

Coming back however; this is how it typically is:

Border Employee: "Citizenship?"
Any Canadian: "Canadian"
Border Employee: "WELCOME HOME! Here is your complimentary 40oz of choice and your passports! Have a safe drive now!"
Any Canadian: "Oh... tight, thanks."

[sdematt]

Pretty true.

Guard: "Did you buy anything?"

Me: "Food."

Guard: "Anything else?"

Me: "Drinks"

Guard: "No, I mean other stuff"

Me: "Ice Cream"

Guard: "Go on through...."

/perfect

The signature on Feroz's Ban doesn't look like it was made by Heather Hudson. Other than that, great collection. I myself am a fan of the artist signed cards.

Had the following experience going Detroit -> Windsor last week en route to Boston.

Hand border guard passports.
Guard: "Where are you going?".
Me: "Boston".
Guard returns passports unopened: "Have a nice trip".

Way back obviously searched.

Also had a similar experience en route to GP Boston 2010.
Guard: "Are all of you American citizens?"
Driver: "Yes."
Ships guards passports, one of the 5 is a Chinese passport that has expired and been "renewed" with a tiny sticker on one of the pages.
Guard: "All good, have a nice trip."

Again, car searched on way back obviously.

I envy the fact you all can smoke Cuban cigars. But yeah, the U.S. border guards are much more stern than the Canadian ones.

[HokusSchmokus]

Man, it has to suck to live in a country that has border guards at all...I mean en route to BoM I passed Luxembourgh and France border without even noticing..

[thefringthing]

We had to kick them out in 1812, so we've been careful ever since.

She used to sign like this in the 90's that's why it might look odd. I can asure you it's her sig.

@sdematt & nedleeds: Julie's sig is unique. Not everybody must have a awesome looking sig like RKF...That's the beauty of it...Every card looks different

[TheElvishPiper]

Recently traded for this at my local card shop :)

All minty fresh, and I have another Foil Griselbrand to match on the way.

Also picked this up...

One of my friends managed to stumble upon a few sealed Spell Ground playmats in his storage closet, and I picked up this 2-player mat as well as the grey/blue Spell Ground Elite in the previous picture for insanely cheap :D
