 		MtgFanatic.com is FINALLY going to be getting into the played market. We will slowly be adding played cards to our buylist so you can now sell us your played cards. We will be adding cards that are valued at $0.99+ in mint condition.

Please note that although we will be purchasing played cards, we won't just accept ANYTHING. There will still be condition standards. We will not accept cards with heavy play and extreme whitening, or bends, creases or tears.

It is EXTREMELY important that the cards appear in the order listed on the invoice. Chris Tremblay President www.mtgfanatic.com, Inc.

 		I'd pick up sets of good cards in played or even HP condition if it carved up the price. For example, I'd pay 20$ ea for a set of played Tarmogoyf. The beauty of a living thing is not the atoms that go into it, but the way those atoms are put together. The cosmos is also within us, we're made of star stuff. We are a way for the cosmos to know itself.

 		That will never happen Jason. I would expect a played card to be 75%-80% of the price of the mint condition. $20 would be a fair price for one played Tarmogoyf, not a playset, but ur still saving a lot there.

 		He said "$20 ea." for a set, meaning $20 per played 'goyf. It'd be a good deal if the card had a couple nicks or a scuff mark. Always sarcastic

 		My power was in good+ condition and I saved at least $100 on my Black Lotus, and the Mox Ruby was in the best condition with the others close behind. I don't mind using cards that are a little scuffed up. The Mana Drains I got from this site were in a great condition and the price was pretty good.

But I don't mind paying for less-than-Good-or-NM condition cards if the savings are recognizable.
