Tough to say, have you ever seen Storage Wars? There are some cards in Alpha and Beta worth hundreds of dollars, heck even beta dual lands are worth ~$500 pop I think. Basically, it is like panning for gold, you could strike it rich or end up with mud.
What condition are they in and can you maybe have them appraised. You could even use this very app to check prices.

I get to See them tomorrow he actually lowered the price 30â,¬ due to the fact that he doesn't Need them ;)
You should let us know what you get. Hopefully it's not just a box of {Benalish Hero}es. XD

From you saying he's lowered the price by 30, Im assuming that's put a dint in the original price he set? In which case, GET 'EM! Many of those cards would be $30 by themselves!

Wait, wait, wait. Are you saying that he insisted you pay LESS! He thought that 80â,¬ was too much for you to pay?
Either he has no idea what he has, or he knows there are no good cards left. Sounds like the former. ✌LUCKY!✌ðŸ'°ðŸ'Ž
If you end up with even one Mox, you are laughing. Frig, even the worst commons are almost a buck.

Not to suck-up or anything, but that was another benefit to having this app. By going back through my cards I was able to find some commons and uncommons that were way more valuable than I thought. I really had no idea that {Standstill} was worth ~$5 USD
Yea I have a ton of {daze} and {cabal ritual} and {cephalid colesium} to name a few more expensive pauper cards....{rancor} and {armadillo cloak} too
In 7 hours 40 Minuten i will get them
