I'm going to have to sell a bunch of other cards I have if I'm going to even consider the Shivan. =(

It is true the seller could have maximized their profit by listing the Summer cards differently, but if they are content with the starting price of the auctions (let alone what they get bid up to), then it doesn't matter. Perhaps time is also a concern, and wants/needs the money quicker than one high end card per week would allow?

Just means cheaper Summer for some.

I hate to say it guys but I think I'm going to part with my Summer Collection. I've spent a lot of time and money tracking down some of the cards in my partial set but I think it's time to put the money else where. I have a house and a wonderful wife that I need to pay attention to and stop dropping thousands upon thousands of dollars into my nearly impossible Summer set. I will entertain offers on single cards but I'm probably going to sell the lot as a whole. I'll continue to update the prices on this list as I'd still like to keep track of what the current market value is on these cards. I wish all of you the best of luck on your Summer collections and hope everyone gets what they want.

That is sad to hear Magic... but good that you are putting your priorities into more important things (i.e. home and wife... remember happy wife = happy life)... Something I have been thinking a lot about recently as well.

So back to my crazy fantasy of completing my own Summer set... will you be posting your list in the near future?

Thanks

Wow, 3x Summer Swords to Plowshares. kudos my friend! I wish I could afford them.
Although, I DO find myself interested in the Disenchant. PM me if you decide to split it up, okay?

for "only" ~40 cards it is absolutely insane what you gathered while trying to get a set. respect!

is there any possibility to distinguish between sealed Summer and Revised boosters ?

I don't believe there's anyway to distinguish between a Summer and a Revised pack. The one I have came from a well respected Pack collector whom obtained it from a very well known dealer who has dealt with a lot of Summer cards.

Thank you Yawg =). I was going for a playset but never got there =(. Oh there's also a Serra Angel but I'll be keeping that since it fits perfectly in my Angel Collection. There's also around 30-40 basic lands but I think I'm going to hold onto them as well since the market on them is a little strange from time to time plus I love collecting basic lands for some unknown reason.

From the wrapper, no. However, can you not scan the bottom of the pack to look for the 1994 copyright?

This is the only way I know of making sure a pack is actually Summer Edition besides getting lucky enough to purchase a Revised box and having it be Summer. I can only dream.

I dreamed a dream once. It involved some worthless game named Wyvern.

As for sealed Summer box. I heard there is at least one (maybe two), owned by the same person (current/former WotC employee?). I was told they would stay sealed and in his possession until the apocalypse comes. So they should hit the market end of 2012. :-\'
