fs/ft Magic Cards (need vid card)

Waffleman · 02-10-2005, 06:42 AM

Ok back up for sale, long story check my latest post for details

I am an avid player of magic and I would gladly buy those cards but not for 300$. From the looks of it there are about 1-2000 and most look like they are from the newer sets. I myself have 6-7000 and most are complete sets that I couldn't even sell for 300. If you lower the price there might be a consideration.

P.S. Didn't you try and get a vid card already with that laptop? I'll add the same thing that I added in other post. Those cards are not worth an X*00 or 6*00 Gfx card.

yeah there are 1700 some odd cards here. from what ive looked at online most of them are tempest, unlimited, and legends plus prolly a handfull of cards from newer sets, i think the latest set she said was apocalypse.
I got offered 200 by a local card shop and i wasnt going to sell them since I know how much they try and rip people off.
But possibly a combination of the laptop and cards will appeal to somebody.

I would have prolly offered you about 150$ for the cards. You can get massive lots of 5-10k cards on ebay for about 3-400$.

I am asking this honestly, I do not want to sound sarcastic or demeaning in any way.... Why would you spend that much $$$ on magic cards? Its not like American baseball cards where the prices are in the thousands for classic cards... I remember spending a ton of money on pogs... and it was just a waste...

Waffleman · 02-11-2005, 07:56 AM

holy crap ive still got pogs, didnt even remeber i had those... anyway the fact that they show people playing magic on ESPN does reinforce the idea that this is not just a "normal" card game. I read through the rule book and decided to stick to paintball.
But I did find this place online called blackborder.com and it sounds like they will give me in the $275 range if I just sell them individual cards instead of the whole set...maybe Ill try that

Black Lotus: Current value-over 1000$
That's why you would pay that much for cards because sometimes you have one that is worth a pretty penny. Plus the game is very fun and it really makes you think with some of the strategies people have/can develop.

P.S. I still have pogs too and many older magic cards...........and pokemon cards (complete base set, most 1st edition, many other cards.) Am trying to sell them (missed my chance) so if anyone is still interested in them (fat chance) please do PM.

okie, im going to put these cards back up for sale an warn everyone NOT to use blackborder to sell thier cards. i sent my cards with an offer of $265 from them, i got an e-mail from some guy saying that the some of the cards were in less than Near-mint condition so he then offered me $160. I demanded the cards be returned for obvious reasons.
Went to a local card shop and sold about 80 of these cards but there are still ALOT for sale, i just want $150 for all of them and need to sell them quick thats around 1600 cards.

*NOTE* Not all of the cards in the picture above will be included as I said that about 80 cards where sold
