I took some of my Magic cards in to a game store today and sold most of them. For $1700.
Nuh. Wish I'd saved mine, then. What'd you have, a Black Lotus? Am I making up that name?

The Black Lotus is one of the ones being auctioned. They sell on e-bay for between $700-$1200. I also had 5 of the other 9 Power cards, so those are the ones that will be auctioned. They all sell for between $300 and $700 depending on the card. Seriously, I never thought they'd be this valuable. I only collected them because I thought they were pretty. Last night, to kill some time waiting for a hair appointment, I stopped in a game store and asked if they had a price list, just for S&G. Yeah, they did, and all I did was giggle when I looked at the list.

No shit, Betsy! I feel like one of those people who has an undiscovered Picasso in their attic and takes it into the antique roadshow to find out it's worth a million bucks. My nephew told me a few years ago I had some "valuable" cards; I figured he meant $50 or something! Eep.
