In reply to Wade. Wade- Sorry i didn't catch this sooner. To put it bluntly, I'm not familiar enough with the older pack pricings to make a reccomendation on this, but I would be wary. If you thing the guy is savvy at all, he may have cracked boxes and used box-mapping to selectively open packs. Further, most of the good money in the Ravnica block is in the initial set itself. I'd look at what you can flip them for online right away, and know you can likely trade them a bit higher than that. M12 (and soon Innistrad) packs will be in demand amongst spikes as they are looking for cheap draft/sealed sets to practice for PTQ's and the like.

I know a store owner who has almost 100 Force of Wills and claims he hates the card so much he will burn them when he reaches 100. Sure wish he would make people a deal and sell those all at reasonable prices. I tend to believe he will really burn them as well and that is very unfortunate. You discuss packs… how do you feel about picking up Dissension or Guildpact packs. I found some recently (about a box of GP, 15-20 packs of Diss) at 3.99, obviously boxes are up right now. He wouldn't give a price break for purchasing all of it (Comic store not gaming) do you feel they might be worth it ?

I really enjoyed this article, and the Ebay tip is actually something I've never done/thought of. Great work!
