Nope. But {personal tutor} for $3 is wicked. Super good for setting up that game-ending {bonfire of the damned}

That's what I'm sayin and it was the front card of the pack so as soon as I saw it I was like "hmmm a tutor? I'll get the pack even if it's worth nothing" got it left n looked it up an almost dropped my phone lol I'm surprised no other shops do packs like that. I love it when Im trying to get older commens and uncommens because it's all they use

My shop does that. They lable the packs according to what set the cards are from. There are only 15 cards I think and they are 1 dollar.

My store has none of that.
However I did go to a a different store and they had {Reaper From The Abyss} and {Sundial of the Infinite} both for 50 cents so I picked those up.

My store does rare randoms, $1 for 2 random rares. Nothing super valuable in them, but the occasional $3-5 card will show up.  I get fun commander cards that was, I was happy with a {void maw} and {gleancrawler} pair.

My LGS doesn't, but The FYE at the mall sells a random 30 cards for 3 dollars.  And I mean random, I got two foreign cards that I have no idea what they are.

Where we all go to play where im at, the owner has a box with like a couple thousand cards in it and sells them for 10 cents a card. Nothing special in the selection, but every now and again if u dig deep enough u will find a rare or to worth some money.

Oh well I'd do it just for the chance of expensive cards in the pack

IMO, I wouldn't do repacks. I mean, the most common repacker gets six boxes, opens them, keeps the valuable rares, then ships the rest off for repacks.

Well for the most part yea that happens but I don't mean packs like that. My lgs has people that don't know anything about older sets or card value volentering to make these packs.... I've done it myself and held like$ 100 revised dual lands that where just chillin in there collection. And obviously they are not checking cards considering the {personal tutor} for 3 bucks and it's not the first time I've found like mirage rares and ice age pain lands like {adakar wastes}....

Got two more of these packs today... One blue and one white and guess what I hit...
1x {witch hunter} the dark
1x {repentant blacksmith} Arabian nights
1x {teleport} chronicles
2x {counterspell} ice age
1x {brainstorm} ice age
My lgs is retarded I think... Not worth much I know but they tell you you won't get rares in those packs.... Such a lie
