Finding a $2000 Alpha Card in This Bulk Lot of Magic Cards | MTG Random Buy Part 1

[@8thPlaceDave]

The part you're probably looking for is at about 9:00

[@Claugustus]

Dave you the real MVP, a cut above the rest, ahead of the game, truly an uninterruptable man.

[@jessesandburg]

Read my mind.

[@flowerboogerface]

Thank you!

[@TheSenselessName]

haha thx^^

[@PhazonOmega]

Wow. Thank you! That's really nice of you

[@procrastinating6188]

This is the kind of stuff you dream about when buying random bulk. Now imagine how many copys of Hashep Oasis you can trade for that. Now that's value!

[@boliber4874]

That’s, like, at least four and a half, right?

[@TheSenselessName]

😂

[@OathOfDruid]

Regarding the differences between Revised and Unlimited; the coloring on Unlimited cards is a lot darker and a lot less pale than Revised cards. Usually the wording is different too and the font is less bold. Hope this helps telling the difference!

[@PrimeShifter]

I'm pretty sure unlimited is just the name of the artist and revised has the date on it at the bottom

[@blackfang500]

@@PrimeShifter Revised doesn't have the date, that started with 4th. You can tell by the alignment of the artist credit though. Revised has it touching the bottom of the frame and unlimited is centered between the top and bottom edge of the bottom of the frame

[@PrimeShifter]

@@blackfang500 thanks good to know

[@BrewerFiremind]

Its subtle but unlimited has different borders than revised

[@johnnoreau3570]

Revised is exactly that. A revised edition of the cards. Cleaner look for that time and updated wording on cards. Easiest way to tell the diff between 4th edition and revised is the wording. I’ve had plenty of cards I thought were money because they looked old and thought they were 4th just to realize a slight difference in text and they’re a 50 cent revised reprint

[@Wolfen5207]

My dad had recently just leased out one of his properties, and when the guy that moved in found out I played MTG, he just gave my dad his cards. Most are from a little over 10 years ago but among them was a heavily played Revised edition of Wheel of Fortune, so that’s a $200 card minimum. And these are like 10 binders of cards that were just given to us.

[@ecastrobonilla]

That ixalan dino deck hitted me right on the nostalgia, even if it is not that powerful i think it is a really cool find

[@incredibleflameboy]

I like the ixalan dinos. I hope they get more love in whatever the return to ixalan set is called.

[@gusplusgamez]

Ornithopter is seeing some play opened at 22:03 Thran Temporal Gateway is $1.50 28:00 Siege- Gang Commander is also $1.50 30:57

[@danielkuttel7867]

Last year I bought too a collection, and in the 3000 Basiclands, I found an Alpha Island and Mountain in good Condition. At the first, I wanted to spare the time to look all over the basic lands, but hey: The 1 hour was it worth;o)

[@7Alberto7]

No way!!!! Holy cow this is insane! What a beautiful card! Congrats!!!!! So happy to see this stuff still happen in random buys!!!

[@hwdsona]

Man, that’s a great pull from a random buy! You deserve it! Keep up the great work.

[@flamehazardaoz3648]

Watching this with my deck spread out in front of me giving it an upgrade. Congrats on the counterspell!

[@sombersloth7010]

Love watching these kind of vids when I'm sitting around organzing and/or re-organizing my cards, and I ESPECIALLY enjoy it if they're from you! Calm and collected chill vibes, not that over-the-top kind of energy that plague this platform.. each to their own I suppose! Keep it up man :D

[@8thPlaceDave]

Thanks :)

[@Weaver_Games]

I'll be honest I never buy bulk cause I always assume people will take everything expensive out of it. You're making me awfully tempted. A big thing to check for is any Summer Magic printings. They're worth a ton even the commons and most casual scans for value can miss them.

[@gustavolrcoelho]

No Hashep Oasis? You just wasted 200 leaves.

[@8thPlaceDave]

Part 2 will contain the Hasheps ;)

[@kentmcalister3216]

Wizards of the coast had at one point a $5 random collection of like 50 cards of unsorted stuff, and they sent a ton of those to my local game store like in 2014. I bought 2, and in my second one I got a fetchland, bitterblossom (damaged), and a chains of mephistopheles. First one had what I wanted at the time, the bant dragon I could use for edh. I had no clue what I had and this dude offered like 400->600 for them.

[@z-mashupz8069]

Where do you buy your bulk? I want to get into buying more bulk simply because I love the randomness of bulk boxes and one of my favorite ways to kill time is sorting through cards so buying bulk would be great to keep me busy.

[@8thPlaceDave]

Most of the time I find it on Facebook marketplace!

[@Flickstro]

Remember to check the back of those Hour of Devastation tokens, as a lot of them were double-sided.

[@ecg1020]

Great video. It’s a long shot but on the off chance you see this, I’ve always wanted to pick up a set of plane chase planes, and you said you didn’t know what to do with them…

[@casualartguru4462]

unlimited cards usually have a bolder text like cards from alpha and beta but revised ones dont have a broader text font

[@themonkeyhand]

That 2nd CS looks unlimited, it has that big ass text. Revised is faded and they used smaller text.

[@AlphaHoarder]

Wow, nice counterspell! Heck of a find in a random collection!

[@TiesThatBind513]

Martyrs cause is good enough to pull, amazing in edh 21:20

[@SUPERKID-sx4mh]

Love the timestamps where you can go to what you want to watch

[@Linky609]

Thief of sanity and scrap heap scrounge are a buck or two I think. Saw you skim past a couple. Looks like an easy $100-$150 just in uncommons. Nice hit with the counterspell.

[@8thPlaceDave]

It would be nice, but they are both $0.35 xD

[@captainc0rgi]

1:35 some nice firewood there

[@Mindlessskr]

Alpha counter spell looked awe-fully shiny and plastic to me

[@christhemagnif]

That’s a fantastic find! 🍀🍀

[@sdoren_9074]

I would've paid $200 just for the Alpha Counterspell.

[@scytheyamato5442]

i always loves the giant planechase cards :D sadly i only have them in the app xD

[@TheSenselessName]

I am really looking forward to buy some stuff at flea markets....maybe there are some treasures🤩

[@iliasmess]

Super cool video amigo. Keep us informed if the Counterspell is real or not, it would be great to know 👌

[@zacshortt1998]

Plainchace is fun, they be missing out

[@galvanizd]

Nice finds, Dave!!

[@mihaelpalatinus4975]

Love the vids keep on the good work

[@8thPlaceDave]

Thanks :)

[@persydiangelo8461]

It looks slightly miscut! Is the left black margin slightly larger than the right? The revised card is in much better condition too!

[@jesselaplante1040]

Wow, you really made out! Awesome!

[@JP-eh4ee]

Congratulations

[@johnbts9216]

Congrats Dave!

[@Yakuo]

Nice!

[@NoctisVigil]

Isn't Mist-Cloaked Herald like $1.50? You passed by a bunch of them.

[@8thPlaceDave]

Depends on which version. The Rivals one is $0.35. It's weird that TCGplayer has the M19 version at $1.50, because it's less at places like Card Kingdom.

[@TripsAhoy]

Guessing that card is considered damaged? Still a cool find tho!

[@8thPlaceDave]

Yeah either HP or damaged. Like you said, still cool though :)

[@TripsAhoy]

@@8thPlaceDave for sure pays for the whole thing!

[@dragard2951]

I feel personaly attacked becouse you called all those new editions "old" 😭 i started with zendikar... no not the new 2020 one and no not the 2015 one either 😭😭😭

[@Matt-ps9iz]

You have a stack of planechase cards? I’ll buy them from you if you’d like to sell them? I just want the planes themselves

[@8thPlaceDave]

Sure send me a message on Discord. There's a link to the server in the video description!

[@Razomka]

The cynic in me is saying that WotC will upshift pitiless plunderer to rare. *Insert why shouldn't I make more money?*

[@sewhitewolf]

Lmk what you want for those skeleton cards lol

[@krekire4152]

what everyone thinks will happen

[@Sheismywife]

smth about Hashep Oasis ?

[@Snowy123]

PSA 0 lol

[@mark_artful]

Seems too shiny to be real

[@Matteo_the_Plague_Doctor]

Clickbaity title dude. You found a beat to shit copy of a card that's normally $2000.

[@kapittsalt]

Good to take out slivers. ⛑️😉
