I cannot see how this item is on the martket legitimately. Either it was stolen or the T.O. for the South Plainfield, NJ event failed to give out the full prize support at their tournament and sold this improperly.

OR I bought 4 of them before they popped the packs to hand out the individual cards to the t4 teams, but after t4 teams were announced so I know who I can acquire them from? hrmmmmmmmmm.... I can guarantee you every one was given out.. the door prize 4 were given out during rd 1 (which according to some of the other seller's stories, and some stories over on motl on speculation of this card's price.. OTHER states didnt give out every single one).. I'd find it hard for anyone to find the balls to accuse Gray Matter of doing something illegitimate..

I seriously find it appalling someone would 1. accuse me of doing something such as stealing, or 2. that myself, and one of the largest TO's in the world engaged in illegitimate transactions. Please keep further baseless accusations such as those to yourself

When I read your first post, I was not aware that you were the seller (it seemed as though you were an interested buyer). As such I cautioned against this item as I saw it as extremely unlikely this was legitimate (we've seen stolen items for sale before).

I didn't accuse you of stealing - I just said they may be stolen (perhaps by a player at an event or from WotC themselves). My reply was meant to be cautionary while I investigated myself on how legitimate this item is.

Well I do realize not a whole lot of ppl do indeed know my ebay handle, as I've tried to keep that separate from my forum browsing. As for the legitimacy of this item, I can assure you it's perfectly legit. I was trying to acquire all 3 packs in fact, but the other 6, 3 from the top 4 teams, and 3 of the door prize winners wanted to keep theirs.. I acquired 5 and a friend acquired the last one. I informed GrayMatter's owner immediately after I posted this, in case he gets a random email from wotc, that I managed to acquire 4 of them from the t4 teams and had it kept sealed.

That's the part that had/has me confused... knowing how these tournaments are generally run, I can't figure out how an unopened pack got into the players' hands. Normally, the TO or a head judge would open the packs behind the desk and hand them out individually.

right, I started asking 1-2 hrs before t4 (well actually i had been working on the 4 given out as door prizes the entire day, and figured if i can swap 4 for 4 in a sealed pack...), and when they were announced, I dragged them to the TO table, and purchased them from the players who would be receiving them before they were cracked from the pack. Each of the 4 assured the TO that they were indeed selling to me, and I handed them money, and I acquired the 4 as a sealed pack.

Interesting story, the TO must not be a dealer themselves. Here in VA, SCG is the TO and they expressly forbid the buying and selling of cards by players during their events. The situation you are describing would never have happened here.

I AM a table dealer at gray matter events, scg is well known not to sell tables. and no, graymatter has no need to be dealer themselves.

I think you could get a better profit off of them...but $350 isn't a bad price either. Right now they're going for $70 apiece on ebay...but that's with hours left in the auctions

HAHAHAHA!! YOU ARE THE MORGAN FROM THE TOURNAMENT!!?? HAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!! I'm the guy who you said wasn't priveledged enough to see your binder!!! hahahahaha!!!!!

I'll be sure to let you know when "my collection is worth 6 digits".


More related to the topic, I'm pretty sure I watched him give the winners 20 a peice for the mizzets, so I'm pretty sure it's legit. ;-)
