this to me is such a basic error, since there's no way cards from these sets could be printed in the Korean language, and it's problematic since Korean cards seem to be particularly popular at the moment - so even if people don't bid on these cards it wastes time (and pushes the sellers items up) in...

Should I open five packs of English language Portal three

and sell the singles?
Or try to sell the packs unopened.
I don't want any cards out of the set, so just wondered what people think would be the best way to make some money.
Does anyone know about how much five unopened packs would be worth?
Cheers.

everyone makes mistakes bidding and on the bright side it's a cool card that will always be cool
i've spent hundreds of dollars on promos that are worth virtually nothing now

it would be up to the head judge
but i think it would be hard to play it as crypt since the card name isn't visible
any card needs to be recognizable and the card name should never be obscured [or non-existent]
but, yeah you might get away with it in a relaxed tournament

whatever happens, it needs to be managed well by wizards they need to be open about what they are doing [which i don't think they have been so far] and ensure that they reprint correct - i.e. not flood the market with new versions of the duals everything so far suggests that they are going to at lea...

i think it depends on the card i agree the sol ring is ugly but i think some summer alterations are OK for example, i saw some really beautiful altered summer islands [small pen-drawn boats on the water] that i thought were a definite upgrade so basically i think there are two things to consider 1. ...

i think zendikar block - being based on land - offers an extraordinary amount of functionality [lots of potentially useful cards that fit into different decks in different formats] but is a bit vanilla - a bit boring, i mean lands aren't exactly the most exciting part of the game but yeah lots of us...
