See, I can actually PLAY my Black Lotus. You can't do anything with baseball cards except look at them. They're useless. Full ack Never understood the thrill of Baseball cards... You had to be there! It was mainly a US thing, since cards were hard to find in Canada and the Caribbean (meaning many o...

And yet a $1 (at best) card sells for $46. Unless they are really unusual (like the card backs misaligned compared to the card front), miscuts should not be valued higher that perfect cards. But beauty is in the eye of the beholder. And many Magic collectors like oddities, regardless of how the were...

Consider in 12 months when the cuts are distributed. You come across a single miscut. How do you identify if it is organic? It is sometimes impossible. We all know there are uncut sheets in circulation. Any uncut sheet can be turned into cards. If the owner finds the right company, the cards can be...

is it not difficult to cut them nicely with the right size and crisp edges/corners? It is a bit difficult. With mechanical cutting there are two major types of processes. There is one method where sheets are continuously fed through guides and disc-type blades cut the sheets, into strips and the st...

This is a reason why I never bothered with mis-cuts. It is one thing to try and cut a sheet into individual cards. But in the past this has usually been an option for convenience rather than profit, since the uncut sheet was priced at the price of the cards it contained, or perhaps at a slight premi...

It was uncommons and not rares, so there wasn't quite the crazy demand there would be today. And the world was much more focused on players rather than collectors, so there weren't too many buyers wanting one of everything. Wizards worked much of the program through their official retail channels. A...

Item 1 attempts to control distribution so that speculators have a tougher time influencing the market. It also seeks to eliminate unauthorized International traffic at the wholesale level (see 3) If retailers can only buy from approved wholesalers (including WOTC), and can only sell to retail custo...

When I was in the print business, we expected to scrap anywhere from 3% to 7% of a print run for set-up and for quality defects. This was important because we had to plan on initiating more product than ordered so that we had enough "good" product at the end. Most of our contracts, which were pretty...

Assuming they were part of a sheet with other promos, one of these got lost in the sorting / collating, and ended up in the wrong pile. Somewhere Wizards has a bunch more just waiting for the appropriate reason to distribute them, or else forgot about them. Having one in the wild might prompt Wizard...
