EPIC MTG Random Buy! Legends & Unlimited Magic the Gathering Collection Unboxing

What a find man, I know you had fun the whole time! WoW!

Obserd for the price. And the cards look in good shape too

Is this his best ever buy, if not can someone tag me?

any word on if this guy is legit. listing and pulls seem very sketchy. lots of those cards have been non bulk for a lot longer than 2-3 years

Watching this video made me think about my cardboard addiction. Everything was cool till the crimped counterspell and that's what rustled my jimmies after this whole video. Wonder how much more it would be in the 2021 climate.

So taking in a few facts…

• The cards are C L E A N. The only damage is due to them rubbing and bouncing against one another, there is no play wear, there is almost no edge discoloration from handling (though there is some just from age / air exposure) and the white borders have absolutely no dirt or speckling.
• There's a paucity of Revised, and zero beta.
• The newest cards are Fallen Empires and two 4th edition Carrion Ants (not counting the ziplock bag which is 100% just something that got tossed in by the store).
• You did not get any of the "money" non-reprint commons or uncommons from U/R; no Berserk, no Sinkhole, no Ice Storm, no Sol Ring, no Demonic Tutor, no Icy. You did get a bunch of Regrowths, though, a dew copper tablets, and the non-reprint commons. You also did not get any of the cards that were restricted from AN/AQ/LG, except for Feldon's Cane (also no Maze of Ith which is really weird since it's a U2 rarity). You did get a Serendib Efreet though is is, weirdly, the biggest money card from your white bordered stuff at the time ($9 by Inquest #1's measure)
• The abundance of Feldon's Canes, Repentant Blacksmiths, and oddball Legends rares is… kinda weird given that fact. Except, of course, these are all Chronicles Reprints. However there is no Chronicles in the collection.

So my take:
This is not a personal collection; it's former store stock bulk. Probably from a store in the midwest or east coast, given the total lack of beta cards (but not the South or Canada, given the large number of Unlimited and the general lack of revised). Whoever ran the store probably opened a bunch of Unlimited, and had enough bulk from that to not bother doing so with revised. He picked out all the value uncommons (ice Storms, Strip mines, and Mishra's Factories) as well as anything Restricted and not Reprinted (except regrowth, for some reason? Maybe it just didn't move so it got bulked.) The last time this lot was picked through was probably in late 1995, to fish out anything that had maintained some value post-4th and post-Chronicles. I'll bet the Fallen Empires-4th-Chronicles-Ice Age collectability crash inspired this guy to just drop MtG altogether, closet his stuff, and eventually chuck it to Goodwill ages later.

Dude this video is even better to watch in September of 2021. Congrats man! Did you end up selling off most of these or hang on to them?

Unbelievable find, major congratulations that is an epic haul!
