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

[WorstBandNameEver]

These are the guru lands right?
They are super pimp imo

They are guru lands. Compared to some cards in this thread like foil russian miscut ONS fetch lands and such, they seem fairly simple. Also, I think there is one guy in this thread who has 27 of each or something like that.

My first non-CE piece of Power. I'm stoked.

[thecrav]

Mr.C - That's a dang good looking start!

[Royal Ass.]

Nice Mox Pearl. I have an Alpha one too! (but not signed)

[Royal Ass.]

Some powerful Magic cards I own. (Ruby and Pearl are Alpha)

I've been thinking of getting some stuff signed, how much do you generally tip and about how long is the turnaround time?

overrated, overpriced

*ClapHands*

storing endless staples for no other reason than speculation. Any People here really blame collectors for the prices of staples

You guys had a lot of time to purchase Liliana for a lot less. I bought my foil Liliana's the moment they came out. While you guys were busy buying Snapcaster Mages, you could've picked up foil Liliana's for the same price or less.

Stop being bitter because you just follow whatever card ends up in tier 1 decks, even though the card has been out for a long time. If you had the foresight to purchase 10+ foil Liliana's, you could have done the same and sold them for a profit so that you can finance your other decks. The only reason why certain cards are really expensive is because a lot of players just net-deck tier 1 deck lists. Not because a couple of guys purchase more than a playset of a certain card.

umm WTF do you know about me
i already have a playset of foil Liliana, and i did buy them when they were cheap because i could see it was a good card
but that doesn't stop me claiming that it's both overrated and overpriced atm

[Fry]

I see an encroaching war... Let's not make the argument of this is too much money and you're too stupid to not get the cards earlier. Let's not argue about it if you're just complaining for something to complain about... this little flame is being put out like a camp fire, by a man standing over it before it starts up again into a pointless and annoying flame war.... Let's bring back the PIMP talk shall we?

Just because you think it's overrated and overpriced doesn't actually make it so. There are a lot of people that simply hate foils and they use the same argument against any foil or beta card (I'm a foil collector myself).

The price of the card is not being raised by the guy who buys out 10 of them in order to make a dollar out of 50 cents, but by the demand from netdeckers who are too stuck in their conventions concerning the tournament playability of cards. They wait for others to break the card, then cry that the card is expensive. The good news is that he had the foresight and economic sense to buy out 10 of them, the bad news is that he didn't buy out 20 of them.

On topic:
Which image hosting site do you guys use? I have plenty of fodder for this thread, but its too much of a hassle to upload pictures >_<

[socialite]

Paid Flickr hands down. Most of the image hosting used by people in this thread is downright horrible.

I don't send cards out to be signed often (I prefer not to have them tied up too long) but it depends on the artist. Terese Nielsen is fantastic with signing by mail. I also had a good experience sending cards to Dan Frazier after meeting him at an event. With some artists it may be weeks though. It's worth it to me to include $10 or so for a package of 10-15 cards in addition to a note thanking them in advance.

Even sending from Canada, Best ones by far for quickness are...
1.Terese
2.Ron Spencer
3.Dan Frazier
4. Volkan Baga
5. Mike Bierek
6. Zug and Diterlizzi were pretty good but have gotten busy lately.

Mark Tedin has had a very expensive package of mine for 7 months. Not impressed. Oh well, Nothing I can do.

You have to admit that you did not expect good things to happen by posting this. This is the pimp thread...not the legacy or modern price speculation thread.

price is an important (the most important imho) part of pimpness
thus, discussion of the value of pimp cards is an important part of this thread
people shouldn't take the value of their cards so personally

Concerning image uploads. I am now using the imgur workflow for Alfred on Mac. All I have to do now is press command, control alt U and I will automatically upload the selected file to imgur and have the link in my clipboard. This is a great tool for those who have a mac.
