The Magic Librarities

For those curious results of my 2 boxes today, got another thundermaw and this:

I have got a spare Artist Proof of the dragon if interested.

Be a minor miracle to pop Mythic FOIL, especially in something I want. First box had the 2/7 spider as its foil rare.

Opened this Friday...have two more JP boxes coming Thursday, would be nice to pop some more dragons.

I have surprisingly good memories of MM, popped a FOIL port in the single box I purchased. Nothing like popping a good foil in a pack.

Win some and you lose some...


I just like playing with some cool looking cards :)

Now I'm just ticked off...order I placed for boxes on Friday for JP 2013 got got f-ed up. So frustrated. Amazon vender claims they lost the box in the warehouse, so now only have a single box. So now I'm in a fight to get my credit card partially refunded with amazon. Yet, they didn't realize the pr...

But these boxes are legit, for sure.

I don't think its unreasonable to think I can double up where I'm at in this now...and the boxes will become harder to find.

Well boxes came today, as far as I could tell everything looked right to me. Shrink wrapped in logo wrap, tightly sealed. Anything else I should be concerned about...given I bought these boxes for investment purposes I want to keep them sealed. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v244/implode311/JP_MT...

Well bought them out of $50 JP boxes (they had 3), I thought I could minimally get $75 back...but maybe as much as doubling up. Where I am if you have $2 packs, people will go nuts. All shops sell at MSRP...and people love cheap drafts.

Can anyone tell me how to know the difference of a Japanese 2012 box of 36 boosters with 15 cards vs a Japanese 8 Card box from the same 2012? I saw a non descriptive item selling 2012 boxes of JP cards dirt cheap and didn't want to walk into a trap. http://www.amazon.com/Magic-Gathering-Japanese-Bo...

He means the premium of Japanese over English per box.

Yes, that is what I meant. Need to learn German maybe...

Japanese and Korean seem to be the hardest and most expensive boosters, you have excellent taste! I have been picking up Simplified Chinese Boxes for less than the American equivalents. The last one was about $100 all up including postage. That wasn't from an American store (but it was on eBay) Who...

I appreciate the offer, however sadly Gen Con isn't going to work.

Any more suggestions or is now just impossible to find affordable JP boxes?
