A bit of a cheat today. I picked up a repack from 401games which is their starter player bundle for Magic - 1,000 cards for $20 plus tax. I do this now and then to see if I can get some artifact or land cards for my collection cheaper than if I were to buy them as single. In this case, I am also going to go through and see if any of the cards are ones I can sell back to them - tee hee - and if between those, it's worth it. Afterwards, I am going to put a box together for sale locally on Kijiji which will be about 1,000 cards for $30 which I will and some of my other traders into to even it off.
First up, the keepers from the box.
Well, with all of the above keepers for my collection, looks like I am ahead without doing anything else because if I were to buy those cards from 401 Games today, the cost before tax would be $27.41, so paying $19.95 plus tax instead is a good deal. Now, let's go a step further and see if there is any trade in value to be found as well.
I won't bore with the details, but going through those cards, there's a big $0.66 of trade in value. I guess I can't complain - I wasn't expecting any at all. So, definitely makes the box worth it, and if I can see it for $30, essentially no skin off my back and moves some cards while just keeping what I want from it!
