is it a good time to go through my old cards yet? I looked at the prices recently and some of them were pretty eye popping for cards that used to be worth nothing that I have 8x-12x of. I absolutely do not need the money but am wondering if you think the older cards are peaking now or will keep getting more valuable?

also what are the best long term holds in your opinion

>>4434660

Depends what you're talking about. Alpha-Antiquities (golden age) stuff I would hold on to. If it's in great shape, get it graded. Anything that's after the dark or not on the reserved list, I would sell now. Just my personal opinion and what I've done with my collection. Of course if you actually have 8x of cards, it wouldn't hurt to bring it down to a playset and put the proceeds into crypto.

Where's the best place (other than a garage sale) to find a bulk lot of cards that someone wants to get rid of? On eBay and CL they've all been scoured for rares, mythics etc.

Right now? Graded power. Playable reserved list cards. It's tough to say right now. Money has flooded into all the really solid stuff already so I can't recommend buying much, especially with the overall downturn but I'm holding things like treachery, willow satyr, tawnos's coffin, wheel of fortune.

At first I got accepted into a uni close to the town I lived in, but the day before semester started I got a mail saying I was accepted into the uni I really wanted to go to (prestigious uni in my very big hometown), so I thought I was gonna move 25 miles and still be close to my friends, but since I got accepted to the other uni I moved 250 miles instead, the same day semester started (the day after I found out I got accepted). Didnt think about the cards as I was busy with the move
