i want to buy this dark confidants from an online seller and he told me the signature its fake but its very close to the original, its original or its fake?
anyway why the people will ruin a playset of bobs doing this?
Ron Spears doesn't sign anymore. There is a premium for his cards when signed
The signatures here look weird. I wouldn't buy them.

Hi! I bought this card along with other older angels a while ago, and my friends told me that it was probably not legit. However, looking at "Douglas mtg signature" on Google, it seems legit? What do you think?
That is Doug Shuler's signature on the card.

So I had gotten one of those giant boxes of Magic Cards a while ago and finally decided to go through them, found these three cards, with four copies each, that appear to have signatures on them, was wondering if anyone could tell me if they are valid or not, much obliged
They all look fine. All signed by the artist(s).

I don't want to nitpick on an awesome project, but...
There's another Desert version. One of the 11 versions of the Desert has a small white print dot, which looks (using some imagination) a campfire on one of the dunes. I didn't download the pics, but it looks like you have two of both versions, so maybe having four of each might be even cooler.
Now for something on more positive note...
I've been collecting An cards for the last 17 years and that set is mindblowing. Now I know who has been removing all the signed copies from circulation in Europe. I had to pay some premium for my signed Deserts and Camels (as I collect both). As for the 'Campfire' desert, I can pretty certainly state that it's one of every 11 Deserts that has the dot, as I took bit over 200 AN Deserts and checked the distribution. every 10,8 had the dot. That makes it as rare as the An Mountain.
At least I got most of the big cards in late 90's or early 2000's for my 4x set for relatively cheaply, crazy to imagine the effort you have put into these sets.
Thanks!
Well, I am not so sure about the Desert versions. Since it's not an official thing I am probably good a "2 + 2".
And with AN now done I can now concentrate on my other projects (9x Beta / 4x Alpha / 4 x Unlimited / 4 x Revised / 4 x AQ / 4 x Legends / 4 x The Dark / 4 x Fallen Empires).

I have tried to build signed Painter deck but some cards are so hard to find that it seems like they don't even exist. I'm talking about Simian Spirit Guide, Painter's Servant and Grindstone. Have those artists ever signed cards?
Yes, all three artists have signed cards in the past. BUT they don't allow people to mail cards to them. Mike Dringenberg is at Comic Cons but since he did a lot of great comic art it is very hard to get him to sign Magic cards...
Here is an example of a signed Painter:

Isn't Jesper Myrfors really difficult to get signed as well, I've heard?
ALso, about how common is a Dan Frazier signed card? Just acquired an Alpha Forcefield signed by him... kind of awesome and I feel a vintage card in this good shape (LP+) and signed should probably command a premium.
Yep, Jesper is fairly hard to come by as well.
Dan Frazier allows to mail him cards (in reasonable quantities) and he has a very fast turn around. His sig doesn't really command a premium.

Yeah, get those cards signed. And remember to make pictures and post them in the "pimp"-thread.
I want to add the following to the rare bunch:
- Daniel Gelon (Wheel of Fortune / Strip Mine)..doesn't sign or attend tournaments
- Tom Wänerstrand (Original Blood Moon)..doesn't sign or attend tournaments

Nothing really exciting this week (apart from the Surface Pro 3 that I bought via a friend from the US), so I have prepared some signed sets where I am not really done yet and since I don't expect to be able to finish them (anytime soon) I show them already to you...

What I need (and what I would buy the hell out of!) is stickers. Magic: The gathering related sticker (Expansion symbols or cards).
Is there something like that?

And this means I finally finished another Magic set "Lorwyn". 14th set!!¨!
I don't know why the last scan I made today is backwards...I think it's an "imgur" thing and will be solved soon....
I hope you can still enjoy this
