This is almost certainly real. Sun-bleached cards will still retain some blue traces and will not look identical to true albinos.

It's a miscut card that is showing the edge of the sheet instead of part of another card. There is a good post somewhere on the site that lists how different miscuts happen, but I can't find it right now.

The crimp lines on these cards aren't straight. I have a hard time imagining getting a genuine crimp like that with the packaging process. I do own some crimps cards that are not straight also, but not like the ones that Ben shown, and there's some at least, that are legit, as I pull them myself fr...

I checked my copy of the deck, and I have a 4-2-2-0 distribution as well. I strongly suspect that Gatherer is wrong.

It is for Magic Online only, so no worries here. I don't play MTGO very much but I approve of how they have routinely been releasing old cards in that format. It'll be interesting to see what else made the set. Also, we have seen all this P9 art before right? There was a time not long ago when the ...

All Portal 2 Extinguishes are like that, so it's not worth anything extra.

The griffin looks really nice, but I have no idea on value.

The seeded boosters are the transparent packs with the promo cards at the front. My seeded booster at the prerelease had two cards of each color, and then the rest of the cards were from my seeded color. The rare is supposed to be in your color (though it could be gold, with your color included), an...

Here's a quick video on sleeving and a water test:

I'm using just the Ultra Pro Pro-Fits and not actually double-sleeving. I'm just using Pro-Fits for my high value sets. I couldn't bear the thought of putting tight-fitting sleeves on 15,000 cards.
