That made my November.
This is the best pack opening, not the best can of pop opening. 
Nice pull!
Cool thread idea!
On 20th anniversary day where everybody got 1 free pack of M14 my free pack had a foil Chandra. Pretty good but I got a better one!
In 95 I bought 3 packs of unlimited for $40ea and 1 of them contained 3 uncommons and 12 rares instead of 3 uncommons 1 rare and 11 commons. 3 of those rares were a Lotus a Pearl, and a Chaos Orb. One of the uncommons was Berserk! Pretty sure this contends for best booster pack in the history of the game!
The "every common was a rare" thing was not all that uncommon back then. We had a friend who had only been playing the game for a week in 1994 and decided he really liked it so he bought a box of 3rd edition Revised. (Back then it was pretty rare that somebody would actually buy a full box). Lucky for him he had 3 witnesses to the best "opening" story I know. Every common slot in every pack was a rare instead. 432 rares. He had almost a complete set of dual lands, and for some reason 13 Royal Assassins. We used to joke how he had 3 playsets of Assassins but zero Dark Rituals.
That's what I'm saying. Looks like he will be posting one anyway so we'll see how it plays out. I'm comfortable with how I have handled this so I doubt anything will come of it. Just a waste of everybody's time if you ask me.
I had about 9 packages returned to me because I packed them too thick for the postage I used. (They were BARELY over the thickness limit due to using the new team-pack toploaders.) I updated all the traders what had happened and most were understanding but a couple are saying they are opening BTRs against me. It has only been 4 business days since I resent them and I reminded them of this as well as the fact that I have remained in communication.
It seems many people are filing BTRs lately when there is really no need but I digress.
My question is, does the 2 weeks before filing a BTR apply only to the original send date, or is a resend date if they were returned taken into account? Also, does the fact that I have been in constant communication factor in or is it irrelevant?
