@@BloodsCaress I bought my first box (Collector) since the mid-90s and got Ragavan (extended art), two Arid Mesas (one retro foil, one extended art), a Marsh Flats (retro etched), a Force of Vigor (retro etched). The rest of the cards are worth $20 or less. Did I do ok? The best 18 cards are worth what I paid for the box, but on KZbin I've seen boxes worth upwards of $700.

[@kurtsloop2462]

For the etched cards to show up better, you need to have lighting come from multiple angles. You have your lighting set up to come from the left side to make the foils show up better but it causes the raised texture on the etched cards to throw shadows. Just set up your Lighting to come from head on, left and right. Your regular foils won't throw as much of the prismatic effect but it will fix your issues with the etched versions.

[@Razorskrull]

Only Rudy can get two force of negations in a box.😂😊

[@claygillman9351]

I personally think the foil etched version looks nicer, but he definitely made out with more value without the foil etching. Still not as much as the box though

So now you can have regular cards, sketch cards, old border cards, borderless cards. Some of these can be foil or etched foil. I'm waiting for the day when you buy a Collector's booster and every single card comes in a different format, moar variance!

"Step through your step sister washing machine" 😂

[@BryceJamison71]

Hey Rudy, sorry there was a misprint on all the promo stuff, they have ETCHED lands, not fetch lands. sorry.

[@KAR1492]

Managed to pull 6 fetches (including a foil old frame and normal old frame) from a draft booster box. Tiny sample size but from what I've seen from my own results and people I know it feels like draft/set boxes may be the way to go with this set, especially with how people are responding to the etched foils.

[@galicredstone]

Arid Mesa must be the Common of the Fetch. My buddy opened a collectors box and got 4 Arid mesa, one of each style.

[@joelombardi4907]

That monkey pirate is worth about $80 now (non-foil full art version). The foil version is over $100.

[@gjdalupang4219]

The 2 to 4 fetchland count is for set and draft booster boxes.

[@americanclowns]

The etches are worth less as they are more common in collector's boxes I believe. However they don't curl, so that's a plus. Uncurled retro foils will go up a lot, but it's a gamble whether yours will end up preserved well. I personally like the etches a lot but people want the real retro look I guess. Also some of the etches have fuzzy printing, apparently

[@seanwayt7922]

Look at that Hall of heliods generosity from that box, looks like the first letter is lower case

It's not your camera, the etched foils look fuzzy and, in some cases, out of focus in real life

Opened 2 collecter packs. Got a Foil retro etched Misty rainforest, and a full art misty in the first pack, and got a foil normal in the second

[@Giggleschits]

From what I can find the Retro Foil Force of Negation is 199, and the Etched is 117. That's not half bad.

[@tbd3058]

They are not that high. Normal foil is about 160 and the etch version is 90.

[@ericmarvel909]

Set booster box I opened yesterday contained 7 fetch lands(3 scalding tarn(one retro), 2 misty rainforest(one retro), retro verdant catacomes, and a foil Arid Mesa), then on top of that a borderless Coffers, and normal Ragavan..... I'm still in shock.

[@psicoffee819]

I only opened one collector booster pack for $30 and got two extended art scalding tarns (one of them foil) and a retro frame foil etched sword of hearth and home. Those three cards alone were a net profit of $100+ in one pack!

5:16 So etched Lands? Rudy of course just flips by it, but etched lands? Now there a thing to look into.

[@Arcdemon44]

The variance in these boxes is nutty. I opened 4 boxes and pulled 25 fetches, then on a whim opened a 5th box that only had a single fetch.

[@AshenWingzGaming]

I've seen 2-3 fetches pulled in set boosters. Technically I pulled 2, but 1 of them was Cavern of Souls from the list lol

[@hosersupreme]

And yes, I got TONS of duplication in the 6 boxes I opened (and they even came from 3 different geographical US regions) - if you get good cards and duplicates of them, it's great, but if you get crap cards, it's brutal. For example, in 2 of each type of box (290 total rares and mythics), I got SIX Verdant Catacombs, yet I only got ONE Scalding Tarn. I got SEVEN Garth One-Eyes, but I got ONE Urza's Saga...their randomization/duplication/distribution is bad on this product.

[@CrazyPierreReduxed]

You did get only one fetch but on the othehr hand, the buyer can just trade Ragavan for two fetches or the Forces for more fetches so....and that etched foil Arid Mesa is like $60+ pretty sure...

[@Hotlog69]

Mox Tantalite was from MH1 and it's like $10. Mox Amber is from Dominaria and it's worth $40. I bought foils of it back when it came out between $40-$50 and now they're up near $100.
