I was working on a completing second set of the Wyvern-backed Fallen Empire cards (or, more correctly, Fallen Empire-fronted Wyvern cards), trying to fulfill one of my goals of eventually compiling a play set, but recently decided to turn my efforts/resources elsewhere. I have already disposed of ar...

I have a couple dozen albino cards, and they all look distinctively different than this one.

If I'm not mistaken, I recall there being a thread on sunbleached cards a couple of years ago, and some examples had been posted.

Looks like sun-bleached or washed-out normal card back to me I agree -- I have seen other sun-bleached backs that look just like this. Sometimes the "bleaching" makes colors appear to change, rather than just fade. I have also seen one of the alternate-backed cards and it looked very different than...

As of Friday, there is one more complete set that I can verify.

I sent the Seller a question shortly after the listing was posted as to whether the dual lands and Power 9 cards were Alpha, Beta or Collectors Edition, and I never received a response - even though the auction clearly states "feel free to contact me if you have any questions". I have a feeling the ...

I know I have a Serra Angel and probably most of what Richard is looking for. I have a box of a couple hundred Alpha cuts that I had collected over the years, but I haven't seen it for 6-7 years now. I have an idea of 3 or 4 places it might be, so I'll try to locate it over the weekend. When I find ...

I have at least 2 dozen cards with upside down backs. They are locked up right now, but I have listed the ones I can remember. There are at least a half dozen in addition to those below -- for the life of me, I can't remember what the other ones are. All are English except the Greater Good: Foil Tem...

Thanks for the tip agzz. I'll try to get in touch with them, but chances are that if the card is still there after a couple of years, they are either asking too much or the card has been sold by now.
