It'll be interesting to see if this auction ends or gets ended by WotC. The sheet is clearly marked as WotC property.

The only way it would get closed down is if it was stolen WotC property. Quite a few of the sheets in my collection also say property of WotC But they were given out as prizes at events.

So does anyone know if one of these sheets has ever been given out at an event? We should track such things

I'm about positive I've never heard of such a sheet being given away as a prize. At least not in the US or North America for that matter. I doubt WotC would stop something like this, because it's not a new set or anything yet to be released. I remember when a guy got several sheets of a set before it was to be released (forget the set) and WotC had his auction brought down. In exchange, he was given some product for turning over the sheets.

I think thats the same guy who did a price check on mtgs. He bought it from a store not specialising in mtg for $70 I believe.

Interesting selection of cards too - I had always assumed the Pre-Release cards would be a separate print-run (although I thought the DCI promos would be also??)

I can't quite make out if the Ryusei's are stamped? I assume this would happen after they were cut - be cool to have a stamped Glacial Ray or 'Tog though. hmmm.

Amazing item - GL to the bidders

yep it is the same guy. I was trying to pick it up from him privately but he decided to put it on ebay instead =(

I always assumed that the prereleases were stamped while they were still on a sheet (although I assumed the prereleases were printed by themselves on 11x11 sheets). It appears now that they are stamped separately after cutting, so I'm wondering how a black filler card would obtain a date stamp afterwards (ie. Glory or BoB). I guess if the stamping process is automated, and the filler card gets cut and sorted with the rest of the cards, then that might do it. Then again, there hasn't been a black filler card with a date stamp (or a shifted date stamp) for quite some time. So they must have the process perfected by now.
