Got 6 NM Remands from Thrift Store

So.. a friend of mine was in a thrift store doing some shopping for his new apartment, and saw some Magic cards for $1 and picked them up for me since he knew I played.

Turned out they were a bunch of Uncommons from Ravnica, and included 6x Remands in NM condition. Sweet! Thought I'd share, and see if anyone else had any stories like this.

I'm sure some people have already seen me post about this, but:

I was once building a jank Jeskai deck for the kitchen table, and was looking to trade some stuff for the cheaper prints of Counterspell. My friend knew a guy that was getting back into Standard and trying to trade off some of his older stuff to get newer cards.

I traded him a few junk rares and other staple stuff for 2 Counterspells that ended up being NM Alpha prints. ~$20 for ~$400 was nice.

Counterspell

Was going to link for the sake of the hover-over, but apparently I haven't checked the price of my cards lately. ~$800 is nice too. xD

Buddy of mine down in florida loves to go garage sale-ing, and a few months ago he found a magic collection for $30. In a similar story, I had him ship it up to me (as he doesn't play), and I pulled out Unlimited Versions of Timetwister and Mox Sapphire, along with a few other goodies (Bolts and such galore). It was pretty awesome.

The one time I checked a old school thrift store, which was selling a ton of old 70's and 80's action figures and stuff like that , the only mtg cards they has were commons from Theros. Honestly think it was someone's idea of a joke .
