The rumor mill has it that the auction was for publicity and that perhaps the seller and the buyer were one in the same. 95k is just insane.

So when did the cases switch to 6 boxes? I saw an auction for 10 Legends boosters in a case, I thought they were always 6. Were they ten until.... Revised, is it? I seem to remember 6 boxes then.

I hope if I ever have money like that I don't spend it on magic cards.  I think I'm doomed though.   :-[

I used to know this, because I remember it happening, but it's gone now. I think they switched to 6 at Mirage.
