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

[Phelix]

What's the policy on asking for where to find certain pimp cards in this thread? Having some trouble tracking down mint beta cards and not sure where to look. Looking for Beta Lightning Bolt specifically, but ebay isn't really a help and I'm in the US.

contribution to thread minimal.

Am I actually not allowed to? I feel like a lot of people ask similar questions in this thread.

Your goal has certainly already been attained by getting peoples attention to what you seek. Now leave it alone and don't do it again please. No trading, asking for places to buy/sell or similar in this thread please.

Soo, I was trying to be original and get some foil Mercadian Masques basics for my deck. Anyone know where I can find some version 4 islands japanese foil? Happy for any help.

ABUgames usually has some of the nicer stuff in regards to alpha and beta. Their prices can be pretty steep but you can unload some buylist stuff and get the trade in bonus and be pretty well off. Sorry I couldn't be more help man.

Here is of my latest project that I just finished:

100% artist signed Unlimited set

Very nice, Markers. Are you doing lands as well?

Sure, the complete thing. Here are the last 11 picture of the Unlimited set:













The pimp mtg page should be updated very soon to see the complete thing.

Is Brian Snoddy still signing or doing Warmachine only now?

Thanks for the advice. I had checked them before, but had only found some copies with lots of edgewear.

One interesting thing I noticed on ebay is that there were more alpha Lightning Bolts, and in better condition then beta copies. I wonder why that might be?

Don't know if he stopped. Haven't heard anything that he did. But then again it's a long time that I need something done by him.

I am fairly suspicious of one of my alpha Bolts. It appears to be trimmed beta. Guess I am stuck with it, as I don't want to unload it on anyone else.

For highly playable cards like Lightning Bolt, I wonder if alpha is more available because of the stigma against playing with different corners that seemed to be stronger in the past. Maybe alphas were sitting on binders while betas were picking up wear.

I'm thinking your possibly right. I was tempted to buy some alpha ones to finish my set, but decided I really want all four to be from the same set.

Markers: beautiful cards as always, especially the duals.

Great stuff Markers! I'm not a huge fan of signed cards, but it is always impressive to see signed complete sets, also love the swamp ghosts.

[Markers]

Thanks guys!

Next set on the list will be Morningtide (expected next Tuesday or Wednesday)

Posted a while back, but there was a 1-2 year period where you couldn't play alphas unless your deck was mostly (or all in some stringent cases) all alphas. If you had alpha power this was a big deal. I've seen alpha cut force of wills, DCI disenchant and a few other weird examples. Remember you couldn't use opaque sleeves until after or around Urza block? I can't quite remember, but I know I railed and ranted heavily for their legalization back in the day on the lists and usenet. Mostly because the disparity in color on the backs of Mirage vs. Revised was so glaring it made alpha corners moot.

Edit: I railed *after* they banned Alphas. Prior to that I actually wasn't in favor of sleeves because the sleeves of the day were penny sleeves which clumped very badly and you couldn't really riffle them. Opaque sleeves became legal on 10/1999 ...

Brian still signs. I see him once in a while in seattle. He is also on FB if you wanna get a hold of him.

Some recent russo germaic pickups







not sure wtf i am going to do with german foils but they were too cheap to pass on ...

[MoxMonkey]

Very nice! I actually have a german merchant scroll signed. Liz is a tough one to track down!

[Julian23]

That German Anger is hilarious. The German name translates to "The Trouble"...
