Not sure if here is the right place to ask, but I'm considering buying 1 or 2 36 pack boxes of boosters. There's nothing more addictive than tearing into a new booster
and the last one I bought (for whimsy sake) was a Betrayers booster which I got an Ink-Eyes, and I spent the rest of the day smiling.
I haven't really touched MTG since 2008(my last foray was when Guild Pact was still new). I'm wondering if I should the get new Mirrodin block ones or Innistrad, but it's mostly not for competitive play but rather just me collecting and what not or should I get an older set of boxes like Kamigawa/RavCity of Guilds etc. It is significantly cheaper just buying the newer boosters, but I think the universe I lost on me. From a collectors I guess I'm lost on what to purchase since I haven't really checked out most the newer content.
Anywho if anyone who has had experience with the Scars of Mirrordin expansion could shoot me a pm about if the block is worth getting that would be fantastic thanks!

Actually, some of the older sets are cheaper, but of course they are worthless. What are you looking for, a long-term investment or just pretty pictures? If investment, I would recommend cracking Innistrad because the packs are reasonably cheap and they have good short-term and possibly long-term value. Not many Scars cards will survive past next year.

Yes, I sell a lot, I would recommend eBay if you want the easiest way to get good money, but also MOTL (http://magictraders.com) you can set up a sell list or a point list where you trade cards for various amounts of points. It's a little more effort, but you can sell above eBay prices.

I'd suggest finding a friend who knows what cards are worth, and getting him to tell you which are valuable and which aren't. Then take the valuable ones to eBay and see what you can get. If you just take them to a store, they will see you don't understand the cards' value and rip you off.
