    Were POG's ever worth anything? I have a bag of them somewhere. I don't remember those ever taking off to the point of being valuable.

    I dont think they ever spiked in value. Iirc they peaked WAY too early.

    I had the old Power Nine as good condition Beta, except my Black Lotus which was Unlimited. Tons of dual lands. Mirror Universe, Lich, lot of stuff from Legends.

    Sold it in an emergency move just before I went in the army in 98, whole thing i had to let go for $500, which was just a little more than the Lotus was worth by itself.

    2012 I was in a game store picking up some warhammer models, happened to be a magic release night. Started talking to one of the staff, found out Black Lotus alone was going for $25k and up. Thought I was going to have a rage fueled heart attack.

    Yeah it's the alpha/beta ones going for 20k+ mostly...

    real sad story was back in the day none of the cards were all that super valuable and pricing was whenever the next guide came out and people would play games that would be madness today. Like playing for ante, flip it or rip it, or the thing where you ripped a card whenever it left play. Seen some moxes torn that way. And actually won my only real dual land thru an ante game. Funny part was the guy was like no fair mines worth more... and they were like $20 back then now like 10k?

    Yeah the alpha/beta stuff was the $$$. I dont even want to know the rest. If the dual lands are 10k each man I easily had 100, 120k of stuff. Easily.

    I don't have much beta or alpha but I have a fair bit of legends and beyond. Still have all my dual lands 4x Tundra 4x Underground Sea 3x Bayou 3x Volcanic island etc. That is going to be my kids college fund.

    Yeah my deck was 4x underground sea 4x badlands 4x volcanic islands, underworld dreams, braingeyser, 4x ball lightning, 4x will o the wisp, 4x serendib ifrits, and some other fun stuff. Before I sold I had a large chunk of my collection stolen so lost two full revised sets on top of what I had, probably at least 50% of the legends expansion, two full sets of the goblin expansion (can't remember that sets name). So yeah massive suckage.

    That price ($8900) isn't accurate if it's for NM.

    At MagicFest Seattle last month, dealers were buying at 10k.

    I think that companies are going to eventually realize that advertisement ROI metrics are fucked up and it will crash the digital economy.

    4 deputies injured, horse punched during brawl at Stanislaus County Fair

    A mounted unit arrived at the scene to help with crowd control. A fairgoer, who appeared to support the man that assaulted the deputy, was knocked over by a horse.
    “This subject got back up and was upset his beer had spilled,” the department said. “He proceeded to punch Maximus, the horse, in the rear end. He was subsequently arrested.”
    Even horses aint immune to party fouls

    Let me also share my Magic woes.

    Back in '95 or '96, an ex roommate stole a bunch of my MTG cards. Bunch of rares from Legends and The Dark, with a handful of arabian nights and antiquities. Got a $900 check from the state of Missouri after he plead guilty. Talking to my brother now, he has mentioned he could get a pretty handsome sum for his complete revised set.

    And now I'm bummed just looking up what Mirror Universe by itself is worth now and I lost two of them.
