if you have freshly washed hands it is actually better. Power 9 quest explained that in several videos, and he got that wisdom from people working in museums working on old books and documents. What destroys cards is the oil on the hands, but freshly washed there is none, and you can handle the cards more gently without gloves.

I missed the ABU era of MTG by 6 months. I barely missed the last box of the Dark for sale. But I was offered a Lotus for $40 (Unlimited) and I remember dual lands commonly for sale for $10-12 each. Alphas were trash cause we had no black back sleeves for years, so they were unplayable cause corners, so Betas were worth more as Alphas were just for collecting and not many ONLY collected. I was also offered a HP Beta Lotus for $80 at some point. Also turned that down cause was 16 and money was tight and it was a cardboard game.

@ObsessedCollector Год назад

@@Simonk_6 maybe by you, but in the summer of 1993 a Keldon Warlord was worth more than a Lotus. I remember most rares including the Lotus was $5 ea. Duals were like $2 and the Lord of the Pit, Fork and Shivan Dragon was $10!

Even the worst cards in an Alpha pack are worth about $30-40 as collectors items. I think the most valuable card they opened here was Illusionary Mask which goes for maybe $1,500. They definitely lost money by opening this pack. They did not open any of the really top cards. (They highly exaggerated how much value the centering adds to these cards, because there are not that many people willing to pay a premium for a rated 10 quality card that isn't a top rare.)

Don’t know any of the values of these cards but it was a pleasure to see you guys all enjoying this moment.

@toddstrongrayvenz5286 Год назад

This makes me sick to think of what I used to have and sold for nothing. Moxes, Arabian nights, Legends, allot from BETA/unlimited, 3 sets of revised, 2 sets of Dark, a stack of multi lands 4 inches high, God knows what it would be worth ugh I'm naseaous

@raky76 Год назад

I once swapped 2x dual lands and 2x moxes for a stack of common lands as I couldn't make a deck with what I had.

@toddstrongrayvenz5286 Год назад

@@AGVenge sorry man, I estimated mine about 150k. Oh well it's just money. I tried jumping back in around the Urzas and that was fun but all I could think about was how much the cards kept going up and up and up in value.

@simonic2063 Год назад

Man, watching these hurts my soul. I had so many of these cards back when they came out, but I was young and didn't really care. Sold easily a thousand cards for about $20 to a friend when I decided to quit playing. One of those life decisions that my younger self could not comprehend. Let alone knowing they'd be around and sought after decades later.

@joemerino3243 Год назад

Ultimately you did the right thing. Holding on to old stuff because it _might_ become valuable to collectors is insane and leads to dying alone surrounded by cobwebbed beanie babies and precious moments figurines. Selling off old toys and shedding the cruft is good for your well-being. For every black lotus card there are a million worthless things people hold on to.

I got started in the game during Beta while working in a hobby shop that started carrying the game. I was in High School at the time. In 2001, when my first wife and I got divorced, my entire MtG collection mysteriously disappeared when she left the house - at the time my book value was over $5,000. A small binder of each color plus another for artifacts and another for rare lands. I hadn't played in a couple of years prior to that - mostly made up of my cards from when I started playing.
