Hi.
I was tidying yesterday, and found a Magic the Gathering Sampler pack. Apparently, it contains 10 cards, and on the cover says "Special Offer Inside". On the back, it says copyright 1993-2001, and is WOC06249.

It's unopened, of course.
Any ideas to value?

No idea, but I'd be interested in a picture.


This week I've been mostly eating . . . chicken and wild rice soup.

MTG collecting is still in super high gear. Do an ebay search. If they are truly from 2001 and still in pack, probably worth more than all us guess...



or maybe not...




** expired eBay auction **


And I could've bought these damn modules off the 1$ rack!!!

Based on the previous post.

$3.99, plus $1.50 Shipping (in the USA) :lol:

I thought I also saw some of these come out of a bagged issue of Scrye Magazine before. I can't wait to dig out my old boxes of MTG cards from storage. I hope 10 years of storage hasn't ruined them.

Well, considering it was free, $3.99 (or roughly £2.50) isn't too bad! :D

Who says my inspiration was D&D?  That was just a background phenomenon.

To raise the awesomeness level of Missouri up.  I may have the largest RPG collection in Missouri.  ;)
