I felt terrible last Friday after I woke up. Spent the first 2 hours in morning on a movie. After that, I cooked, and I sat down prepare to read. I didn't manage to find any mood for reading. I kept staring at the same sentence over and over again. So I attempt to draw, nope, didn't work either. So, I laid out my thoughts on the table. I was attempting to filter them and see what was stopping me. It turned out to be Magic. I wanted to play Magic. I contemplated and I selected Magic online over paper Magic. The reason was because I wasn't too sure if I was just lonely or truly yearn to play Magic.
I installed the Magic online client and spent $15 on a draft set. I chose Origin draft, which I'm more familiar with, and determined to lose the $15. I lost in the final and got away with another free draft set, then, Melvin called.
He was wondering if I had free time in the afternoon, I gave him a positive reply and we decide to meet a cafe at Ginza. I was late for a bit, by the time I arrived it was already 15mins late. He brought with him a normal size plastic bag. I looked inside and saw 3 deck boxes and a 500cards carton box. Since I was eager to get my hands on real magic cards, I immediately went for the bag and start browsing through them. I found some gems in the form of foils, and foreign cards. When he returned from the food counter which he went for food ordering, he urged me to prioritize the 500cards box first. He said it had the most valuable cards. I obeyed and looked into it. There were many valuable cards, among which had foreign white border Volcanic Island, Savanna, and Brushland. Judging by the conditions, the cards can be easily sold for $200 a piece. I evaluated all of the boxes content and informed Melvin they are worth approximately $10k. Except they weren't. They were actually closer to $7k. Then I told him I need to get at least an album for exhibiting the cards so they can be made known to the players he, almost immediately, suggested that we should go to his warehouse and get the rest of his Magic collection which includes card album. I obliged and of we went to the warehouse.
It was in Bukit Batok, I arrived with a anxious heart. I didn't anticipate much could be left but I was quite wrong. There were 7 carton boxes in the warehouse, 5 of which were what we were interested in. Melvin only inclined to transport just 3 of them but I voted for all since I wanted to check out everything. He surrendered and 5 boxes were transported to his car.
Everything were unloaded to my house safely and now it is up to me what means do I have to use to turn them into cash. I'm confident I'm capable to maximize their potential. I'm confident.
