I own a lot of $10 cards. Nothing super valuable. Wish I would've kept my collection from the Urza to Onslaught block when I stopped playing for a minute :(

Wizards ran a point program a few years ago.  1 point for each event(fnm, pre/release) 5 points for 2 cards & 20 points for a foil.  I played in a lot of events, then i traded for some. Then wizards discontinued the program and i only need a few to complete the set so i bought them.

Oh and wizards sent you these through the mail.

I did have playsets of all the zendikar fetch lands and a handful of onslaught fetches.  I traded all but 3 {verdant catacomb} and 1 {misty rainforest} just recently.  I got a lot of good staples like 2 emerakul, 4 Karn, 3 JtMS, shock lands, and a lot of other notables.

I kinda regret trading them but I really enjoy the other cards a lot more just because I play more casual funsy decks anyway and those fetches helped me get some great cards.

A few weeks after innistraad came out and I became fully invested in mtg again I obtained a foil  {Liliana of the Veil}. I opened her myself and refuse to trade her. The funniest part of this was my friend and I swapped packs and opened the other persons as usual. The look on his face was pure gold, even though he managed a 3 rare pack next.
