Guilds of Ravnica spoiler season is in full force, and that means old stuff is turning into new stuff for many of our customers. With so many incredible new cards coming out (I'm looking at you Assassin's Trophy), people have been shipping us the good stuff. Without further ado, here's the Cool Stuff We Bought This Week!
- Alpha Mox Emerald -
Our week opened up strong with a very well loved Alpha Mox Emerald. Looks like it may have hit the blacktop a time or two back in the day, but it's still sleeve playable! This card is a good example of what we consider Destroyed quality. The top edge looks like it may have lost a fight with a can of Coke. However, it looks great in a sleeve and perfectly playable in any Vintage or Old School deck.

Alpha Tundra
- Alpha Tundra -
While we're on the subject of crazy Alpha cards, here's one of cooler ones, Tundra! (Pardon that garbage pun please) This one is definitely leagues prettier than the Mox, coming in at our HP condition. The edges are still pretty rough, but overall a very nice card for its age.
- Unlimited Demonic Tutor -
Moving on to another Old School staple, we have an Unlimited Demonic Tutor. This is probably the most desirable card in any black deck that can play it, as it functions as every card in your deck with a 1B tax, but you already knew that. This card was absolutely pristine as well, as close to pack fresh as you could reasonably get for an Unlimited card in 2018 I'd say.

Foil Teferi, Hero of Dominaria, Polluted Delta, and Jace, the Mind Sculptor.
- Foil Teferi/Delta/Jace -
Changing gears a bit, we have some newer cards with a foil finish! Some strong control cards here with Jace, the Mind Sculptor, and Teferi, Hero of Dominaria, partners in crime in the Modern UW Control decks that have been seeing play. Perhaps most impressive is the land they're huddled around, an Onslaught Polluted Delta! Foil fetchlands from Onslaught demand a premium for how short a supply they are in, but one look at the classic Rob Alexander art makes a good case for paying that premium
- Vengevine Alter / Other Alters -
Closing out the week, I'd like to show off a great alter, and talk a bit about our altered cards in general. This Vengevine alter showcases an Aaahh!!! Real Monsters reimagining. I grew up watching this show on Nickelodeon, so it was very cool to see this rendition, although I absolutely love Raymond Swanland's original art for the card. This card is just one of the many amazing alters we have in stock on our website! Unfortunately, we won't be stocking this one, as our very own Joe Davidson will be adding this to his collection. However, I invite you to search our site for any high profile card, as our Actual Picture selection may treat you to some altered goodness! I especially like the Ken Meyer Jr. treatments for Stoneforge Mystic and Jace, the Mind Sculptor!
AHH! Real Monsters Vengevine alter.
Jace, the Mind Sculptor & Stoneforge Mystic Alters!
