So today, I went to open a Modern Masters' pack and it wasn't sealed on one side. Everything seemed to be intact, but there was a Nantuko Shaman that had the impression marks across the top of the card like how they seal the side of a pack (small vertical lines/bumps) - I'm assuming it got in the way and prevented the sealing. It is very crisp and defined. I know the card isn't an expensive card to begin with, but would there be any value to a card like this? I can try to get a pic of it later if wanted.
Thanks!
Crimped cards generally don't have a premium unless the card is valued or the crimp is extreme.
Does anyone know what this partial albino is worth? There's a random green card under it for contrast. I saw this pulled from a pack during a draft, so I'm 100% on its authenticity.
The issue there is that while you are 100Z%, it can be duplicated by leaving the card in a window for a couple weeks (Force of Wills are a key example of people doing this).
As for value, im not knowledgable enough to comment on what it might be worth.
It's probably not worth a whole lot. Like Macius said, you can replicate it by putting it under the sun. The exception to that rule would be cards that have multiple colors. Unfortunately, Tel-Jilad Chosen is a completely green card in the first place. There's no red in it, so there's no way to tell if it was from sunlight or a lack of ink.

I understand that there are sun-bleached cards out there. It is, however, possible to tell the difference between a sun-bleached card and a partial albino (the other colors remain vibrant, the black text hasn't faded at all, etc), when viewed in-person.
Assuming it's real, does anyone know what it's worth?

Can't tell you the worth, but info about bleaching v albino here.

Probably $1, to the right collector?
Spots and splotches are going to be more valuable, because they're more shockingly "wrong". Especially if you get a spot that connects over two cards - that's cool.
Your other big problem is that nobody particularly wants a Tel-Jilad Chosen. If you had an albino Tarmogoyf, you could probably name your price. Your only market here is for people who collect a specific type of misprint, so the demand is miniscule and they know it.

Are Chinese Marsh Flats worth more than English? I know for newer cards Chinese is close to English in value but I'm unsure of older cards.
Traditional Chinese holds a slight premium to the right person. Simplified Chinese print runs are roughly on par with English, though, so no real premium there.
I have heard vague rumors of a moustache-dispensing vending machine in a distant laundromat, across the street from a tattoo parlor. However, this information is shaky, and time is of the essence.
Blarg. I'd say around 1k, though I could see people going either direction from there.
Cheers
I think you're thinking of Liliana of the Veil. No one really plays with Dark Realms outside of EDH. I would say $100 tops, realistically more like $40.

Ha, I pulled one of those a page or two back. I put it around $30. Don't know about the sell/keep though.

Thanks for the fast answer! Out of curiosity, what is considered extreme?
Vertical crimps, crimps that take a bit of the card off, angled crimps. Though, these can be constructed at home, finding the right buyer takes time.

Any ideas?

A little less than English foils. Italian isn't really considered pimp or add a premium.

On a similar note, how about a foil Japanese Subversion from Urza's Legacy?
More than an english foil for sure, but finding someone who would want it is the harder task.
