Portal Booster Packs

I just ran into 1224 loose packs of Portal for a price I couldn't pass up and was wondering about how much I should expect to get for them and where the best place to dump them is.

Well, normally I would just relegate it to my memory being faded, but when Starter came out I bought the box set and 3 boosters and ended up with 3 Mon's Goblin Raiders. I can remember thinking how horrible my luck was because I pulled rares out of boosters that were commons in other sets. I remembe...

A Note About Starter Boosters

I was browsing through the rarities section of the site, and noticed that one page shows Mon's Goblin Raiders as a starter only card from the Starter set.

I've opened them out of packs before. Has anybody else encountered this?

Re: Worst Godpack EVER

On another thread people were talking about 'god' packs they opened, and I just had an experience with one I thought I'd share: I recently won a box of Portuguese Prophecy on E-bay (kinda by accident - I thought it was worth more than $40, but after opening half the box, I now know it isn't). Anywa...

T&T had some all rare Visions boosters awhile back. I opened a box of Homelands with no rare/uncommons. That takes Homelands to a whole new level of crappiness... The shop I frequent received a case of 7th when it first came out where all of the rares were foil. He sold three packs for $2.50 then s...

Wow, Big Games, I'm sorry man. As an atheist, I can relate to being shunned for my religious beliefs (or rather, lack thereof) but it's really hard if you are being pushed away by members of your own family. If I were you I would remind your M.I.L. that Jesus teaches to "hate the sin, love the sinn...

All of the gold bordered stuff seems to have gotten more expensive recently... I picked up a sealed box for $40 two years ago, but now the cheapest you see them even opened is $100 with online stores selling them for up to $300.

So somebody is printing tens of thousands/millions of cards and also printing all of the packaging to sell it for $60-80 a box?

You could put an Infernal Spawn of Infernal Spawn of Evil in. I'd prefer not to lose $10 in cards.

It's not only Christian's, it's any fundamentalist. All religions have them as does the scientific community and the two wings of the political spectrum.

My grandmother and mother were like that - it's partly a control thing. Yes, she shows interest in you, but it's because she wants to control what you do and what your sister does. Don't let her. At some point she'll alienate your sister and then you can try to contact her (or perhaps she'll contact...

Summer Edition Booster Packs & Preconstructed Deck Lists

I was wondering if there was some external way to tell the differance between a regular Revised booster pack and an Edgar pack. I collect sealed packs among other things and the only English pack I need to have a complete collection would be Edgar, but don't know if there is some way to identify the...
