Ogre thank you for your kind words. It’s hard getting feedback of that sort around here because this message board isn’t set up to register good trades and/or completed sales. But I always strive to have good communication and prompt service - whether I’m buying or selling - wherever I may be. It helps to make sure any future transactions go smoothly. Speaking of, I’ve now finished with three deals here on the Dope and am eagerly awaiting the completion of two more. But offers are still open to anyone else that wants to sell to me. Just let me know either here or on PM. Thanks! ---

Ender - I saw your post and am interested in selling you bulk cards. Here’s the deal though. I have 30,000 to 35,000 to get rid of. All commons/uncommons mixed from Revised through Zendikar. I saw your bulk rate and so I thought I would reply. Would like to get rid of all of them. I live in Idaho and have figured that you can ship 3000 to 3500 cards in one medium USPS flat rate box @ 11.00 per box. I am not sure how much bulk you wanna buy, but i have a lot to sell and want to get rid of all of it. Please contact me if your interested. Thanks, Nate ---

One question: What would you offer for a good to fine condition Urza’s Saga era banned rare? Not Tinker, the other one. ---

> [@foolsguinea](#): > > One question: What would you offer for a good to fine condition Urza’s Saga era banned rare? > > Not Tinker, the other one. Ah, it’s a good thing you clarified it. Because Tinker wasn’t in Urza’s Saga, it was in Urza’s Legacy. Another banned card from there was Memory Jar, which isn’t worth very much at all. So I’d never have figured it out. Anyway, an Academy in the condition you describe, I’d offer $10 for it. ---

Tinker wasn’t rare, either. ---

Hey Ender, I know they’re not nearly as valuable as what many in this thread have been talking about, but would you be interested in a bunch of Onslaught-era cards? I dabbled a bit in Magic around that time. ---

Hey all. First, I want to thank the Dopers I’ve already made deals with. I’ve worked with over half a dozen of you, getting cards out of your storage closets and putting money in your pockets. But the offer is still open to anyone else interested in making a deal. If you have Magic cards you’re looking to get rid of, post in here or PM me. Thanks! ---

I just posted a list of cards that I’m selling on Magic Traders. You can find it here: [http://www.magictraders.com/ubb/Forum3/HTML/082486.html](http://www.magictraders.com/ubb/Forum3/HTML/082486.html) ---

Hi all! Every so often I get an inquiry about whether I’m still buying Magic Cards. I thought I’d bump this thread to say, yes. The offer is still open and I hope we can strike a deal. If you’re interested in making a bit of cash and clearing out your hall closet, just let me know. Thanks! ---

Hey I got about 3000 cards or so I would like to unload, I will try and get you an exact count within the next couple of days. ---

I think I found my collection, or maybe my latest active deck. I’ll get back to you with what I have. ---

Sounds great. Look forward to hearing from both of you with more details later. ---

Hey, since this thread is back up, is there any value worth mentioning to foil versions of basic lands? I think I have a few from Invasion. Oh, and from **BlackKnight** on the first page: > [@](#): > > I also have an entire set of “Unglued”, but I doubt that’s worth anything. Are the Blacker Lotus and Chaos Confetti in played condition? 😉 ---

> [@Chronos](#): > > Hey, since this thread is back up, is there any value worth mentioning to foil versions of basic lands? I think I have a few from Invasion. Are they worth money? Yeah, a bit. Off the top of my head I couldn’t say how much. Maybe 25-50 cents apiece. I could take them, but honestly, if all you have is a few of those cards to sell, I’d say your best bet is to take them down to a local gaming shop and see if they’re interested. ---

OK, that’s about what I figured. I do have a few other cards that might be worth a little, too, but other than the foil lands, I think I’d prefer to just hold onto them, in case I ever want to put them in a deck. ---
