I'm pretty stoked about that too, yeah. It's great especially when you don't have access to Darksteel Mutation or Kenrith's Transformation, and arguably better since the only way to get your commander back is to destroy the Oubliette.

i was lolling at the brainstorm not because of the art (which owns), but because one of their boxtoppers is a common that costs 10 cents

Rare art/foil brainstorm will be worth a pretty penny for the exact same reason that rare art/foil urza lands will be worth a decent amount

oh poo poo YEAH, found my rare binder! I thought I got rid of this years ago, but it was buried in a box in the far corner of the storage room. I don't think I have anything insanely special, definitely already sold off my dualies and gaea's cradles and whatnot ages back during Money Troubles, but there's 32 pages of almost 300 rares in here.    should I take pictures of each page or just a short video flipping through it all or what, if anyone wants to see what's in there

Be more mad about uncommons getting upshifted to rares imo. That's actual bullshit. Edit: Yavimaya Hollow is like a 30 dollar card last time I checked. Edit 2: Oh it's average of 50 now. Count Bleck fucked around with this message at 21:18 on Jul 28, 2020 |

Its worth looking everything up. Don't assume you know what stuff costs. I went through my collection recently for stuff I thought was valuable to trade for new goodies and I missed tons of stuff and I was deep into knowing what everything cost when I was in college. Literally seconds ago I realized what I was sure was a dollar junk rare i left in my trash box, Staff of Domination is worth money.

When I cashed out, I went through a buylisted everything in my binders and boxes worth more than $5 and bought a nice camera before my first was born. A couple of years later I did it again, $5 limit, and had enough for a lens. A couple years after THAT I did it with a $1 limit and bought a guitar. Stuff just kept on climbing into the "worth the trouble" range. The final time, I just catalogued every rare and mythic and any uncommon/common that they even buylisted for even a penny. Bought a nice sushi dinner and then recycled the rest. (Arena entered open beta about 3 months later, and I've played nearly every day since haha.) My point is, you'd be surprised.

What do you guys do with several thousand cards that aren't worth anything, once you've pulled every worth-something card out of a huge old collection? Just dump them in the recycling, or, store them forever in case some 5th edition uncommon suddenly gains value in four years?

I've bulked out my commons//uncommons/bulk rares twice in my life, both times to SCG, and both times to the tune of $200+. It can be kind of hassle going through everything to make sure you didn't miss a Manamorphose, and sometimes you wake up in the middle of the night wondering if you accidentally mailed them a playset of Mother of runes, but it's also nice recycling draft chaff into marquee Commander cards or reserve list stuff.

Had a longbox full of misc cards, from baseball to Batman Forever to original legend of the five rings/star wars TCG/star trek TCG/warhammer 40k TCG/any other card-type things I own, and right at the end was a small stack of MTG rares.

Like, those Innistrad(?) commons I posted earlier, I'll probably keep 8 of each and donate most of the rest.

But if you can afford it, I'd say donate'em and save yourself the hassle.

How do you guys know which random little card buylists for .50 cents or a quarter or whatever? I go through my junk now and again and pull what I think might be pricey now and then but I have some 20,000 plus commons uncommons and some sprinkled rares that I've never picked that thoroughly going back to Ice Age that I've never picked the Rancors and Clouds of Faeries out of. I feel like there is value there but I wouldn't even know where to start. Fake Edit: Just looked through my junk again, Foil Predict and Foil No Mercy are worth money now? lmao

Donated like 20-30k cards to a middle school starting a MTG club after someone posted on Facebook about it. Worst case they sit in some classroom and never get touched. Better than sitting on my shelf. After the fact I realized I didn’t have any dispels or negates when I was trying to put a deck together and actually had to buy them.

There was a period probably 10 to 15 years ago where I bought a few sealed short and long boxes sold at game stores where it was like, $15 for this whole mystery box! of 99.9% commons! Some of them had like 80 copies of the same card in a huge stack.

You go to their website and follow the instructions for selling cards and then wait for them to confirm that they want it. Any outfit the size and depth of SCG has a $15,000 automatic card sorting machine that can process millions of cards in a day if it has to and they just basically feed your entire collection into the robot and the robot burps out store credit into your account.

The new frame is explicitly designed for machine sorting, with the white-on-black text that definitively describes the card at the bottom. But you can also sort old cards just fine, you just need a slightly better camera that looks at the whole card rather than just the bottom strip and compares it to a database of card images. Sort anything it doesn't recognize into a separate bucket for hand sorting, there won't be many of those.
