More Vintage than Adept

I have decided to sell my best cards and donote the money to sponsor an African child. If you are interested in buying seriously good cards have a look at this thread. I have listed starting prices based on Magic Traders average prices, if you think prices are too high please let me know, I want to sell these cards but also get as much money as possible for them. I have tried to grade the cards as fairly as possible although I have zero experience of selling cards – I thought all of the cards apart from those labelled Fine or Good were all NM until I had a very close look at them. Scans added See www.tatranka.sk/cards.html www.tatranka.sk/cards2.html www.tatranka.sk/cards3.html www.tatranka.sk/cards4.html Card backs 5ML, Ancestral, Workshop,Library www.tatranka.sk/cards5.html Rules. 1. All cards start with a guide price. You can bid any amount you like although I will ignore too low bids. When bidding dies down I will start a 3-2-1-SOLD countdown and the high bidder gets the card. 2. Buyers are responsible for the transport cost 4. Bank to bank transfer, cash and any other practical method of payment is acceptable. I don’t think a standard American bank cheque will work with my (Slovak) bank though. 6. I have lots of other cards but I intend to carry on playing. If you are after anything specific, just ask – I have old stuff rather than shiny stuff. I will sell other cards if the price is right 9. Attempts to talk me out of this will be severely frowned upon. I’m not terribly keen on parting with these cards but food and medicine for a kid somewhere is a pretty good reason to sell IMHO. 10. I will sign any Dandans winning bidders send me. And send them back. Maybe. 11. I will not accept any donations. Wherever you are, there is a charity nearby that will accept your money. If you don’t want the hassle of looking, I believe Bram will happily relieve you of your money AND ensure it goes to a good cause. Due to failure to pay, a number of the following cards are being put up for sale again, see page three of this thread for details Cardsale         Set     Condition Price (USD) High Bidder Black Lotus       UL VF 670  Orgcandman GONE Mana Drain x4      LE NM 410 TheGunslinga GONE Ancestral Recall    UL NM 400 Sgt.

I'll bid $190 on the Beta Twister. It will have a good home in one of my ridiculous combo decks.

Are the Drains engrish or italian?
Also, is Rudy planning on going to GenCon this year? I'm thinking if I were to win any of your auctions, I might ask him the super-huge favor of just bringing the cards with him and collecting them from him there, since I don't trust international mail for valuables as you can't insure them. At least that's what they told me at the post office.

Klown - luckily I'm not easily offended  Legends is English Legends. I'd don't have much Italian Legends and it isn't worth that much (as I intend to carry on playing, my Italian Nether Void is worth more to me than its monetary value [even if I haven't currently got a Legacy deck to abuse it]) I hope to have scans soon. I have no scanner and at work they told me that it might not be today which is Slovak for tomorrow. I plan on scanning all of the good stuff, both sides but in sleeves as I don't trust anyone but me to handle these cards. If the sleeves make the condition look worse, I'll live with that. That's still better than someone damaging the cards!

Put me down for the
AN City of Brass AN Ernham Djinn BE Sengir Vampire
I could also use the beta twister, as it's the only piece of power I need that's WB, but I don't think I can afford it right now.

I'm surprised none of the mana crypts have been snagged yet. I can't afford to spend any more money on cards right now, though.

Klown - luckily I'm not easily offended  Did I say something offensive? Or was it just questioning whether your Drains were italian? If it was me wanting to get stuff insured, that has nothing to do with you, I've just received some shredded mail before and I'd hate to have that kind of thing happen to a piece of power or so without being able to recoup the losses.

If you are seriously dedicated to helping this poor sap out, you will sell on ebay. Â Surely you will get more money for this person than you would by selling here to people that you know. (somewhat) Â
I would bid on some of those nice Betas, but I think you could get more money on ebay for this unfortunate kid.

I'll take the initial bids on an AN City of Brass, a Beta White Knight and a Beta Orcish Artillery.
Good luck for your charity Dan !

Would you bid on a bunch of power cards and Betas from a guy in Slovakia with a rating of 16 all from sellers? I wouldn't. Ebay would also take commission and to be honest I'd rather these cards went to players than collectors (good luck Clockwork Beast). I think most people 'know' me here so are more sure of buying from me.

It's too bad you didn't post this a few months ago. I needed a beta Clockwork Beast then. (Going for a beta set, now missing 24 cards).
Ok then... since Toad also wants the CoB, I'll give that to him... but I'd like to bid 11 on the beta White Knight since I missed it.

Unfortunately, I don't think I am. I don't have the money unless someone buys my workshops, but even still, I don't really have the time either.

I was sure that Mike Long would want the Alpha Orcish Artillery (CC is 1R).
People buy the Hyppie, Black Knight and Frenchie BB Demonic Tutor. They are beautiful.
I might even add a German BB Underground Sea if I feel very generous (I need more money, more bids!)

Hmm...
Is it both AQ Stripmines for 8? And the 3 REBs for 15?
If so, sign me up for all of them. (if it's 8 each and 15 each though, I'll just take 1 stripmine).

Yes, I'll have to make that clearer (I thought the price for the set of Mana Drains would make it clear). The price is for all of that card so 3REBs and 2 Strips. Do you want the other Stripmine currently at $5 too? Personally the Stripmines look cheap but that's what they had ay MagicTraders and i figured if it is too low, someone will up the bids anyway.
In addition, I will split cards where I have multiples so if you want 1 Time Vault give me an offer for 1 Time Vault.

Ok, dandan's right... with 8 pieces of BB power, and a chance to get #9, I have to go for the chance, sorry JDizzle. However, that means I can't afford everything else... so let's see. Alright, here's what I'd like (remove everything else please).
Beta Timetwister: 200 Beta White Knight: 11 Beta Sengir Vampire: 6 1 x AQ Strip Mine: 5 (didn't see it when I bid on the others).
And that'll have to be it. I'll get the Ernham and the REBs another time.

Depends on which cards you want and so which method. Normal air mail, I'll cover (sleeves in hard sleeve plus jiffi bag for good stuff if you prefer), UPS or American Express is probably the safest way for the big stuff - you probably get better prices from them at your end. I've never lost any mail to America using regular air mail although this would be a bad time to start!

No, I think the Germans fleeced him so he was poor by the time he got here. On the plus side I think it has been a while since he won a crushing victory using Tower of Fortunes or lost a match by being forced to draw 14 cards by his own cards or even get nuked by a Legacy Weapon. We managed to play with and against all of my decks (35-40) in 2 days! He is, however cursed with mana screw (and if not mana flood) whilst I am sure he will testify that Lady Luck is not only on my side but was positively kneeling between my legs this weekend.
He did say that I was selling these cards for way too little, so get bidding guys!
