I kept my cards neatly boxed in my basement... which flooded while I was on vacation in 2013. I came back to an undifferentiated pile of soggy paper. (In retrospect, I really should have used sealed plastic for all those unlimited-era cards...

Magic valuations exploded after 2010, like everything else. Before, Black Lotus was under a $1000. During the everything bubble, it was up to $50k-$100k.

I have a box with some third and fourth edition decent card somewhere.

Some first edition lands, because that’s all my 15 yo ass could pay for.

Same as you m, unclear where it is.

I'd like to imagine they, like other tcgs from that era, ended up in a landfill after a parent decided to toss those "baseball" cards telling you years later, "...but you don't like baseball anyway".

Oh that definitely what happened and I’m not even mad. That’s on me. Keep your own shit if you care enough.

To come back to the discussion at hand…maybe someone who care should have back to article up?

A webscrapper and a zip, then torrenting it.
