I believe the elesh norn and mox opals are NFC's, which in the misprint community means not factory cut. Probably got a foil a sheet and custom cut it.

Realistically, what would you say the minimum price is for a tournament legal P9 set? I'm becoming more interested in Vintage, and once I stabilize and save up enough funds I plan to start in mtgo since it's cheaper and more popular there, but I do plan to eventually build a Vintage Hurkyl's Recall/Paradoxical Outcome Storm deck. Also I think it would be bad ass to add those to my collection

Hey Rudy!! Is there any way you can show us what we should see throught that magnifying glass? And most importantly what we shouldn't see in it. Like a nice comparison so timmy's at home and buy themselves a 20x magnifying glass and a shiny light and start telling fakes apart on our own. For my part im good with telling them apart by their texture and the gloss on the cards but i can't really do an extensive and clear breakdown of all the elements required to make sure i do not buy a fake and be 100% sure on my skills. And i also believe that could help a lot of viewers and also contribute to make a dent in those guys wallet that make them. That would be nice to educate us a bit more on that. Thanks man for all your videos and i love your channel. P.s. i would love to have my collection checked by you but im afraid of the cold hard truth. Lol. Have a good day. Talk to you soon.

I am writing this comment from beyond the grave. I know, I'm as surprised as you you are, maybe even more so. I was doing fine, until Rudy dropped that camera, and then, everything went all dizzy and blurry, and since it had been at least three days since my last bender, I was like at least 97% certain that this wasn't the drugs. Again. Anyway, I was at first upset that I wouldn't be able to watch any more of Rudy's videos, but it seems that somehow I am still able to interact with KZfaq and the internet at large. Something to do with all the cloud stuff I guess? There is one down side though; no tacos of any sort, floppy or not. So, Rudy, for the sake of other viewers, please treat your camera with the same love and care that you do for your Clefairies. Thank you for your videos, and thank you for your time!.
