Title: Worst box EVER!!
Post by: Ace on February 01, 2013, 08:09:25 PM
I just opened a box of gate crash and I got zero money cards! I am sooo mad rite now I honestly am contemplating quitting magic. I got three {enter the infinite} and no shock lands, no PWs, and I didn't even get any boros charms...I pretty much just gave my LGS 100 dollars for nothing.  Anyway that's my rant, thanks for listening.

I didn't buy a box, but I finally got the chance to pick up a couple packs with the thinking "Everyone seems to pull really good stuff, so I will too!" 

{Alms Beast}
{Sepulchral Primordial}
{Wrecking Ogre}
::)

Granted, you got hit way worse than I did.  I only lost $12.  That really sucks!

Enter the infinite would be good for my "mill yourself" deck. If you want, I can trade you once I find my shoe box of cards

You'd quit playing a game you enjoy because you didn't make money off a booster box? No one makes money off booster boxes.

No, it is not cause I didn't make any money because I am aware u normally won't make your 100 back, it just really pissed me of that I didn't even get anything worth anything. Like I said it was almost as if I just gave the money away and got nothing in return.

I think what he meant was you don't make you're $$$ back if you don't sell them for monetary gain. Which hardly anyone does. Meaning you have these good cards that you keep or trade for other good cards, and you're still out a C note.

Lol I do that.  I'll pull something awesome (very rare) and think "Woah, profit!" then realize I'm still out 4 bucks because I'll prolly never sell it 

Hahah I know how you feel. I used to sell high value cards on eBay but its such a hassle if youre a new seller. So I just stick to trading.

We pay ~50% more for a booster box in Australia... Much harder to profit from a box.
