Graded 2 Alpha Moxes! Now with Scans

I got the results today:

1993 MAGIC-GATHERING MOX RUBY ALPHA 9
1993 MAGIC-GATHERING MOX EMERALD ALPHA 8

9 and 8! WOOT!

That's exactly what I thought they'd get too, the Emerald is really nice but was not a 9. The Ruby is almost perfect, only a little nick on the bottom edge keeps it from a 10.

  • Nice! I think the 8 should be a 9. Send it to me and I'll get it in a 10 holder =)

  • Congrats Crash image

    Not super surprising based off of your scans; the Ruby was nice, but my rule of thumb is if I can see anything wrong in the scan it most likely is an 8 or less. Of course, without seeing the card in person it is only a guess. PSA 9 Moxen always look so nice...

    Best go out and get the other 4 and crack the Emerald for your deck - it's the "pimp" thing to do image

    Did someone say scans? Where? :-)

  • Crash is "the" pimp daddy over on the StarCityGames forums. To see all of his cool cards you can check the Pimp thread in the vintage forum...

  • That's a neat thread - but it's big, most of my cards are spread out over those dozens of pages, not to mention the first version of the thread which was even bigger. image

    If you guys are not aware of the Japanese Foil market - it is even bigger and more active than the PSA ones. Some cards like a Japanese Foil Goblin Welder go for $300+, and a playset of Brainstorms, a common, has gone for as high as $500. Not even Alpha 10 commons can claim that. image
