This MTG Card Thrift Store Lot Was a JACKPOT! Insane Pulls!

I got this lot of MTG cards totally blind on eBay from a seller that appears to be a thrift shop with no history of selling trading cards. They only showed the box and one card and based on that, I bought it. You will be as blown away as I am when you see the expensive pulls that came out of nowhere!

I can't decide what I liked most . You pulling so many soul rings, the quadruple surprise, the number of rats, or that they just forgot that green is in the game.

[@derHexenhammer]

I had a friend back in high school circa 1999 that just couldn't seem to build a deck. He could play well just couldn't build a deck. I watched him rage quit burning his whole collection in my back yard. It had many alpha and beta cards. I tried to get him to give them to me(we didn't know their worh) but he set it all ablaze.

[@shinigami_0127]

I've never been so mad yet so proud of another magic player getting such a profit like this. This is so incredibly rare I've never seen it in person nor has it happened to me

[@caleb7882]

You my man are one lucky bastard! Congrats!

[@jefferson7097]

In ye ole days of Magic: Black borders were used for first print and white borders were used in reprints. So white border 1995 cards are likely 4th edition which also did NOT have a set symbol. 6th was the first Core set to have a set symbol.

The best part was when he pulled all 5 pieces of Exodia.

Damn. What a find. Now I'm gonna go looking for some random lots.

The lots I find are are moderately played midnight hunt commons and the like.

I bought a box of fallen empires when I was like 13. Bunch of fungi and thallids. Soo much trash. But a great trip down memory lane

[@KrisPSouls9258]

That was a awesome collection.

[@drollerartifactatlife972]

Ice age has a snow flake symbol and cold snap is the icicles

That weird Path set symbol is the Coalition vs. Phryxia Dual deck

[@edgabrillo1909]

48:20 sphere of resistance is 89 usd thats a kaladesh inventions reprint

[@sagethegreat4680]

White bordered is a reprint set think 4th , 5th edition and black bordered is a unique set .

[@donovanulrich348]

White boarder isent always a reprint 07 main set was all white boarder and there was some originals And ally's 🤔 White boarder was to switch up traditional art so there wasent a standard look to cards Innistrad was 1/3 flip cards 🤣 just to break a mold

[@All_that_is_Magic]

Good idea, opening a collection like that. Maybe gonna do someday on my channel. Great opening.

[@joem8507]

What a find! I thought I was going to see collectors edition (gold boarder) power 9 or duals.

[@thetwinkietroll5293]

Congrats on the lottery ticket win.

[@othermans-treasuresllc5317]

Hi there my man Des! Awesome come up for sure, and its awesome to see someone as you, who deserves all the good fortune (especially from WOTC in a sense nonetheless) that life may offer, comes into a find like this treasure box sure was!!! I do hate to say this, as not trying to burst any bubbles.... But maybe just make sure that some of these were not counterfeit, as a few of their colors seemed to be a bit off to me. But nothing that a jewelers loupe couldnt tell you when looked over of course, and would hate for you of all people to genuinely sell a handful of them, not really knowing and being genuine in that, but then only for some douche who bought them off of you to then go off, like many toxic peeps out there certainly can and do..... i could already see the damn Reddit boards now and I am sure some haters would love nothing more than for that to happen to you. So just a heads up bro, to maybe get at least the cards over about $20 bucks checked into, before making some major $$$ on your investment on this! Congrats again, and thanks as always for the unfiltered, REAL content my man! All the Best this summer and beyond!

[@benjaminkaye5119]

Nice come up des! These are the diamonds I. The rough we are always trying to find. Congrats !!

This is the most valuable collection I have ever bought in over 10 years, dude.

[@fragniz]

As I'm sure you figured out in post when looking them up: The first three Paths are from Modern Event Deck 2014, and the last one is from the Archenemy decks. Also, screw yo rules! I will NOT keep that to myself :P Love ya, Des. Keep up the fun videos.

[@DoughBob86]

Ive got like 40 spare relentless rats after making my rat deck and going colonys over relentless.😂

[@sagethegreat4680]

Ground Taco Supreme delivery lol

[@fragniz]

You're memory is slightly skewed. But I can't blame you. 4 and 6 look similar after all. Also, can I note how weird they were with sets back then? Fifth and Sixth were Roman numerals, Seventh, Eighth, and Ninth were Standard numbers (with Eighth and Ninth also having cards as an emblem), then Tenth went back to Roman numerals.

[@vexx8451]

5th Edition didn't have a set symbol. It did, however, have a 1997 copyright.

You might have messed out on a lot of money over the years if you've sold over a million dollars of cards. It's just kind of crazy. What cards you freak out about and what cards you don't. There's always a process of learning. I understand and keep in mind that the lot of prices change over time. Don't be a hater on this guy. Because there's probably not many of you out here the buy lots

[@dannil9878]

So what was the Total ?

[@VulcanGunner]

Nice pulls.

[@andrewsparks-pb5kn]

Probably a pissed off ex sold these out of spite.

[@coreyburton8]

nice stuff! well done sir

[@paul_goddard]

This was a fun video!

[@fragniz]

Because the vault is white bordered, that has to be either Revised (3rd edition) or Unlimited (4th edition). Don't know enough and too lazy to look up whether vault was in Revised, because not ALL the cards from Alpha and Beta were. Either way, worth a pretty penny, I believe.

[@C42ST3N]

Unlimited is not 4th edition. The series goes Alpha, Beta, Unlimited, Revised, 4th, etc. The card here should be revised or 4th depending if a year is printed at the bottom.

[@foxw00d]

nice pulls from ebay

[@ArsisKytori]

I want to buy that Ink - Eyes from you.

[@mytubeguy1234]

the reason there is no green is because green is the worst color in old formats

[@daltooinewestwood6380]

I like your content so I hope you don’t take this as a hate comment, but after you admitted that MTG KZbinrs open 16 boxes and use the 2 best ones for box openings, there is absolutely 0 chance I believe you actually found this in a thrift store naturally. Every thrift store I’ve been in for the last 8 years has been sorting their magic card supply for high end rares

[@DesolatorMagic]

I just didn't upload the last 6 or so years of buying promising blind boxes on eBay from sellers that shouldn't know what they have and failing horribly. There's this and the red mythic one on my channel (which was like $60 lol) and that's all. 2 success vids lol.

[@natebullock6555]

Very Nice hit

Congratulations. Its not the most amazing. But at least quadruple your investment. Dont be silly the sell prices online are not even half as you can sell them for.

[@OfficerYeet]

The first comment that appears to me isnt in the comment section anymore, which I find odd. The comment essentially says that this collection was probably stolen due to how stacked it is. And I agree. I highly doubt any magic player with commonly competitive staples like rift, chrome mox, jeweled lotus, mana drain etc would let this go for $20. Whoever you bought this from, well, they definitely got this from doing something sketchy. And the fact that they sold it this cheap, is sus. Either the video is fake, which I dont believe youd do that, or someone got scammed/is a victim of theft. Definitely heartbroken for the guy whos cards got jacked

[@DesolatorMagic]

I don't allow lies and false accusations to be prominently featured on my channel. I know what user account i bought it from on ebay. They were a small thrift store. The end. Not stolen.

Why would you say you got scammed after finding the lands? You weren't scammed. You speculated they were something and they weren't. No one said they were something else. i get you probably didn't mean it the way it came out, but in no way were you scammed after finding the lands.

[@natebullock6555]

Wotc is destroying MTG with thier stupid reprints. Nice find though 😃

Nah, they're destroying resellers and speculators portfolios, pretty good for us wanting to actually play the game and not spend 100+ per card
