so, I had a story awhile back of some sweet Vintage Stock Pulls, due to their mispricing. Here is another one! Right now, they are having a B1G1 sell on singles (Memorial Day weekend)

So, I looke through their "old rares" binder, just for some ideas, when I see a black border {ankh of mishra}! I was taken aback! IT WAS 5.99!!!!! So, I kept going.... {Timber wolves} alpha (round bordered) 19.99 !!!!!! I kept going, and my luck kept increasing!!!! I walked out with

{karona, the False god} foil
{ankh of mishra} beta
{timber wolves} alpha
{kormus bell} beta
{Manabarbs} beta
{goblin king} beta (kinda MP)
{nightmare} beta
{Island sanctuary} beta
{Crusade} beta
{steal artifact} beta
{mana short} Alpha
{Sleight of mind} Alpha (SP)
{Power sink} Alpha
{psionic blast} beta
{clone} beta

ALL FOR  $57.26!!!!!

I'm not sure. lol My guess is that the highschool and college students that work there don't care enough. lol

Actually, I'm having trouble deciding if the goblin king is Alpha or Beta. The 4 corners are quite worn....

{contract from below} (same as with the attorney)
{Two-headed giant of foriys}
{raging river}
{sunglasses of urza}
{dingus egg}

The problem is, that I'm not really sure how to profit... They have lots of value, but none of them are super useful....I feel like that will make them hard to move.

Back in the day, when ante was required,  {Contract from Below} Was one of the most broken cards...

I've heard arguments that it's the best magic card of all time.

{B}: draw seven. That is, if it's the last card in your hand or you want to ditch what you have in the grave to fuel delve or treshold. Seems better then {ancestral recall} even if you do have to ante an additional card. (Just hope it's not your {black lotus})
