I just went to a LGS and a guy had a vintage deck with {Black Lotus} in it. I held it in my hand. I felt so powerful. Lmao. I know I may sound like a loser for it, but it was just funny.
I would imagine a slight feeling of dissapointment. That it doesnt feed all the hungry people in the world and shoot lasers at the same time! ;D
Not for sale! Lmao. He had vintage deck that had alternate art for almost all his cards. As he was scanning through, I saw the card and said "is that an actual black lotus or a proxy?" He goes, " a real one." And hands it to me.

But seriously, I've been told by a guy at my LGS to rip a lotus up. I did, thinking it was random jank..
I was a stupid noob.

Ya see, I'd find his house, and his MTG collection...tie him up, and burn his wife and do his cards in front of him...or something like that.

The keyword there was may, and I'm about 100% positive that your full of it. Come on now. You didn't gain anything by making that up.
Yes. Kill that man brutally and painfully. Make him feel what you felt!
I have a friend who is a collector and card shop owner. He has 10 sets of power 9 locked away in storage. I had the opportunity in '97 to buy a set for 2500. I said no cause that was a lot of money for a 16 year old kid.

Yeah!, and my pet unicorn from Narnia once .poo. out a {Jace the Mind Sculptor}.
I have felt this when hold a playset of the power nine. And I'm not kidding, a playset. My brothers friend came over with it, and I just stared at him in awe. His grandfather played way back in alpha, and he handed those cards down. He even had unopened packs of alpha!!!!
Some people are just so luck :/
I have never touched a single one:(
I got to touch one at my lgs, I believe it was even a beta! Which was around for less time than alpha. Someone bought it for $4,000 hahahah!

It was either back then if was not as good, or they did not have rares and I think that's the case for maze.
