In this video I open up three Magic the Gathering random repacks I bought on eBay for $4.00 each. The listing promised 5 random cards (Rare or better, but not sure which sets) and 5 random Vintage cards, with the possibility of Power 9 cards (yeah, right.) Anyhow, their definition of “Vintage Magic” must be a little different than mine. Still it was loads of fun to do this.

​I got 6 packs for $24 buck and in this video I open the first 3.

What are eBay repacks?

Well, from one point of view, they are a scam. They are presented as someone selling their complete set, making “random” repacks and “promising” that rare and expensive cards from their collection will be randomly placing inside the packs.

I’m saying right now, you’ll never get an authentic Power 9 Card from a random repack. I’ve seen videos of people getting fake ones, but real? No way.

But these aren’t always scams. If they advertise X amounts of rare cards, or whatever, they usually deliver. As you can tell from my video here, they are the best rares, but they are rares nonetheless.

So why did I buy these packs? I honestly just thought it would be fun. I don’t even remember which expensive cards they promotes (Maybe Time Twister and a few Moxes?) but I seriously just thought it would be fun to see some cards I haven’t seen and maybe find a few old cards I remember

And it was fun to do, so thanks for watching!
