I went to a comic book store today that I know doesn't update their magic binder prices. I got there and bought:

1 {Daybreak Coronet} for $12 instead of $20
1 {Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx} for $8 instead of $15
3 {Nightveil Specter} for $1 each instead of $6 each
And a Dissention {Blood Crypt} for $9 instead of $13

The owner is really nice but I had to buy those right? Or should I have told him

It depends. Were all the other cards in the binder less too? If not is sounds like they're just being nice.

Dude, don't worry about it. There's a card shop in the capital city here that sells ALL Magic rares for $2 a pop, and if I grab enough they give me a discount and a free booster pack.

Debating whether a 20 hour $3,000 plane ride is worth it?

Don't think about it, JUST DO IT!

The owner of a card has a responsibility to know or at least obtain the price. In today's day and age with all the technology at our finger tips there is no more excuse to not know the value of your possessions. With that I never feel bad when someone under values their cards to my advantage. I also never deny them my ability to check TCG in an instant.

It's a very "don't ask, won't tell" kinda world. :P
I do the same. If someone asks me the value of a card, I'll tell them. If they've under-valued it and don't ask me what the value actually is, then I'm gonna buy it without a second thought.

I have a few card shops in the area. One of them, you literally look up the price on starcitygames.com and add them to the cart on a laptop on his counter and you pay exactly the same price. My favorite one is lazy and sells shocks for $8, uncommons and commons for like 10 cents (unless he actually looks it up, which is rare) and a lot of times undervalues rares. On the flip side, he overvalues a lot of rares/mythics and only pays you like a third of what your stuff is worth.
