The Magic Librarities

They're worth $500 right now.

I came across this website today. This has got to be one of the funniest websites I have ever seen.

It's not Magic-related, but it's worth a look:

People are selling more than they are buying lately.

Then who's doing all the buying? Apparently some beings other than "people"?

1200 DPI scan of fake Black Lotus. Notice that the dot pattern is clearly different than that of the real cards posted above:

Here is a 1200 dpi scan of a Summer Magic card. It does show the "circular cluster" pattern.

Thanks to AzureWinter for posting the scans illustrating what I was trying to explain. I guess if someone wants to check a card or two, scanning them in at a high resolution would be a cost effective alternative to buying a macroscope. But, for those wanting to check a lot of cards, or for someone w...

I use a 25x Macroscope which was made by RF Inter-Science: http://www.rfinterscience.com/main_products.asp?category=1&group=1 I had gotten it over 15 years ago in conjunction with my stamp collecting, and it has proved invaluable for a number of things, like authenticating Magic cards (and looking a...

I had sold a similar set about 2-3 years ago. I got roughly $100 if I remember correctly.

This is a card carrying box I acquired years ago. I am told it was used at the first Pro Tour to hold players' decks during breaks (or between rounds, or between days, or something like that). It is solid oak and is HEAVY! The cover is a separate piece, and it has four brass hasps (two on each side)...

A full set of the eight "-1" cards: http://i205.photobucket.com/albums/bb73/kikta/TestFoils-1.jpg A full set of the eight "+1" cards: http://i205.pho...

I have an extra set of the 8 test foils that I might be willing to part with. Please PM me if interested.

I have a Power Sink available. PM me if you are interested.

My "misprinted" white-bordered Serendib Efreet - notice that it doesn't have the same picture on it as other Revised cards:

I feel that the $1,500.00-2,000.00 range is accurate for what they are worth. I am aware of two sets of test foils (the "+1" and "-1") changing hands within the last two years, and that range is accurate for the Survivals. In light of the above, I would buy any foil Survivals anyone had for $1,000.0...
