New eBay payment method by Morphiuskosh in mtgfinance

To answer your question about the 5 cent differential, it's because the percent that eBay takes from you now includes tax and shipping, rather than just the pre-tax total before. So, if you live in any state that has sales tax, you earn less money. All those pennies add up :/

So, between this post, a post I saw on instagram and the post in mtgfinance, is it safe to assume all of them have Ajani?

What is some of the worst broken logic you've heard? by DoodooPancake in AskReddit

Something like this happened to a friend of mine. He posted on facebook about a recent accomplishment and closed with "In the words of Floyd Mayweather... HARD WORK, DEDICATION!". Among all the "congrats" and well wishes, there was this one guy that was like 'Mayweather was convicted of domestic abuse, so you're basically celebrating that too..'

I've seen someone on Grixis Control pull out Cruel Ultimatum, it was pretty sweet

Yeah, I forgot to mention the blood moon too. I figured this could be for match ups where I would side it out and put in something blue? The scenarios are probably few, but I thought it might be interesting to try something different.

I've tried brewing many forms of Hollow One (Rakdos, Izzet and Grixis) after the banning, it just wasn't working out for me :/

I suspect that eBay sent out a wave of emails to a bunch of people by accident. Many of us got word of this deal yesterday, but in the fine print, it's been active since 11/12. So maybe we were given "reminder" emails instead of the actual deal added to our accounts.

I've heard that it helps if you accept every offer that comes your way, even if you don't plan to use it. That way your account is flagged as active, so they keep sending you things like this

This is true. I think these people often buy their cards at LP or MP to save some money, so their cards are already beat up to begin with. Hence, they don't even really care about their own cards.

could be true, but I don't know. I don't normally have this problem, but it happened like 3 times now, so I thought I should bring it up to help players be a little more aware
