Jonny 290 posted:nah they cant print any more power 9, real collectors can call em out. which is good because too many nerds have them as their retirement fund and it'd be weird to have a bunch of suicide bombings with all the survivors covered in bloody stinky fat no the restricted list is on its way out actually, i doubt it will last many more years. too much money in it for wizards some of the nerds are talking about a class action lawsuit if they get rid of the restricted list lmao

pretty soft girl posted:the mtg computer game that came out in like 1997 where you could just make your deck be whatever you wanted it to be instead of blowing money on boosters made me realize how fuckin' dumb ccgs were and never wasted my money on that poo poo ever again you could also not be lovely at math and just do that but in real life and make money in addition to it ive played for almost 15 years now and its laughably easy for a group of people to pool money and buy bulk pre-orders of singles for new sets and flip the good ones around. eventually you dont need to put money into it because you sell off the old stuff to buy the new stuff that you play tournaments with and then sell, rinse & repeat its a really easy and pretty fun way to make money, mtgonline made it 10x easier, too. its a good time to not suck at math, in the mtg world e: our last speculation was buying 100 of a card named den protector for $2.50. http://sales.starcitygames.com/cardsearch.php?singlesearch=Den+Protector you could say it went well, we sold them before they dropped below 10 though Cursed Lumberjack fucked around with this message at 23:37 on Jun 30, 2015 |

Happy Bear Suit posted:good theres no point, theres only a few hundred high quality black lotuses so if you put on up for sale it will get scrutinized by every sperg this side of the atlantic ocean they print off massive sheets of hundreds of dual lands and stuff that are worth a few hundred each and sell them for 50-100 rather than their real price, people are so excited about a good deal they buy 4 there really is a lot of hubbub about these but the truth is they are very easy to spot if you are not a retarded kid using moms credit card to buy poo poo off ebay. its really a non-issue aside from the nerds who are sad they might get fleeced due to their stupidity/greed/lack of care

pretty soft girl posted:yeah you could do that or you could have more gratifying hobbies, don't get me wrong bilking nerds out of their hard-earned cash must be pretty satisfying but the game must still be terribly unfun i cant really find a game comparable than it other than maybe settlers of catan, which is a whole different thing. its easily the best game in the world, in my opinion, and i felt that way before i started making more money on it than i spend, so idk its good for keeping your brain active, too, and its better than staying in the basement all day i have some other hobbies i guess but none have lasted 15 years and none make me money

pretty soft girl posted:lmao where are you going to get an inking factory and the millions of yuans in startup and bribe money though? this isnt a dude printing these off in his home, this is a business model run by a group of guys who saw MTG and thought "hey making fake cards is pretty good money lets do that" and built a factory to do it exactly like wizards has here in the states

NecroMonster posted:i don't know what's funnier that fat people can't sit in plastic chairs without breaking them or that fat people keep trying to sit in plastic chairs that they have to know will break yea so that is literally actually how it went down, the guy who ran the tournaments kept yelling at the fatties to not sit in the lovely plastic chairs since they were rated like max 180lbs, so he literally went and bought metal chairs so that the fatties would have chairs they could sit on without breaking but the chairs would sit stacked by the register and when a fatty waddles over to table 23, he sure as hell isnt going back to the store entrance to get a chair and carry it all the way back, so he just sits on the plastic one and breaks the poo poo out of it 3 times 3 different guys hngh e: all 3 were present to see each of the other two happening

Parallax Scroll posted:wait are dual lands really worth a few hundred? i still have my old cards from like 20 years ago what sets did you play in? if alpha/beta theres some money there, even the commons are a buck at least. later sets drop off really significantly except for a few expensive ones bayou, tropical island, volcanic island, taiga, savannah, badlands, scrubland, etc those are all worth at least a 100+
