so i dont know if anyone elses walmart has started this, but i bought a clear box that had 4 decks/intros/tournament packs/graveborn/commander decks. i was wondering if anyone got any of these and got anything ubsurd. i bought a "value pack" which contained a the zedruu commander deck the kaalia commander deck and the ghave guru of spores commander deck. one of the best values i have ever gotten from a magic product at walmart....
P.S. not entirely sure this belong here but oh well.
There's been lots of talk about these around certain areas. I personally have never seen one, but there have been some people saying to look around for them, in order to get some chase cards for cheap prices.
my biggest wonder is at a local target they have a graveborn deck, however im doubtful that it would have the entomb in it because the entomb wasnt originally packaged in the same platic wrap. it was displayed in the front.

That's a risk you would have to take. Who knows what might be in there. Regardless though, most people that i've seen that have posted their grabs here have gotten some decent stuff out of them for a cheap price. Now, i wish they would sell them locally for me...

No entomb would be guess. The display cards havea. Shown up in other repackage products outside of the decks on occasion.

That's amazing. I'm going to have to be on the lookout for more of these. I found this same thing at Target, but it had the Divine and Demonic decks, as well as a Conflux and a Shadowmoor precon deck. The divine vs. demonic decks were intact with mythics (and the Demonic Tutor more importantly) included. I was very happy with that. But if I found one with three of the Commander precons I would scoop it up... maybe, I already have all five. I didn't have Divine vs. Demonic so the choice was easy.
They have these at my Walmart and I have been skeptical of them. Just getting back into mtg and I am trying to stick mainly to standard.
Price $30, in a hard plastic case, several loose cards and two sealed decks. I take it the loose cards are from some precon decks that were in larger packaging and they packed them loose to save space?

These I wouldn't waste the money on. The one I found at Target had 4 decks in it for the same $30. I have heard of people getting some of the mythics that come in the duel decks (i.e. Jace Beleren, Knight of the Reliquary, etc...) in the loose cards in these packs, but anything that I've ever gotten with loose cards in it like that I've only ever gotten random common cards. Also, if you are trying to stick to standard, then this type of product just isn't for you.
I, on the other hand, am mainly playing Commander, and I have a pretty strong "collector's" mentality, so the fact that there were two of the Duel decks that I didn't already have, and that they have relatively valuable cards included made it an easy buy.
The sealed decks nothing is usually "missing" and are ported from one package to the next. However if the product came with a lose foil like an Intro Deck, Premium Deck Series, or Dual Deck... those will not be included.
Wow... I didn't even really check value before purchasing... the Demonic Tutor is coming up with a median of $22, and the Akroma, Angel of Wrath is coming up at $20!!! Very much worth the $30 price tag. I'm going to have to be on the lookout for more of these for sure.
I picked up one that had both the Jace and Chandra decks from JvC, a Mirrodin white weenie equipment starter and a precon with a foil Lich lord of Unx. I really only want the Lich Lord (EDH), but I figure I can get the money spent back from JvC decks. The JvC would be worth more if it was in the original box, but since I have both sides still in plastic wrap it should still be worth something.

i would trust any loose commons. even if they are plastic wrapped in thinking they couldve probably came out of the deckbuilder's toolkit.
Got these in my area here recently, most of them had 1-2 of the prebuilt Commander decks. I grabbed the only one with 3 Commander decks (Riku, Zedruu, and Mimeoplasm) knowing I could unload them for $20 bucks a piece.
The ones at my local wal-mart were mostly jank Way of the Warrior(kamigawa theme deck), a bunch of innistrad theme decks, one had a shadowmoor tournament pack, two had archenemy decks(Scorch the world with dragonfire and assemble the doomsday machine) but I figured those weren't worth it.
I wish my 4/4s with haste and first strike that acted as Goblin Warchiefs were better and didn't die to instants and overshadowed all other 4 drops in the format. And that they had evasion too, and some way to dodge wrath effects.
I went back to where I got mine from and they had one other that had both the Divine and Demonic decks. I picked that up for a friend. The rest had I believe one or the other of the divine or demonic deck, but not both together, and no other good decks that I could tell. I checked out another Target and they didn't have any. I haven't looked at a Wal-Mart yet.
Checked the target by my house and found one that had a pack that I thought was a commander deck... was larger then the rest of them but was faced in so you couldn't see what it was. Opened it up and was all M12 lands. Buyer beware I guess. Also came with an nph infect deck, way of the warrior and another deck that I can't remember. Where are people finding the Divine and demonic decks? Could use another demonic tutor.
I searched the 3 walmarts in my area, found nothing. Searched a target, found nothing, then finally today i went to the other target in my area and found the Counterpunch, Mirror mastery, and political puppets, along with a msomething flameblast dragon deck in a box for 30$. I was just beginning to think my area was barren of these.

It's so sad that I've never seen nor heard of these in Canada. I'd love to be able to pick up 3 sol rings, Edric, Scavenging ooze, and a Flusterstorm, for 30$. I'd even be tempted to build a Zedruu EDH deck, but the value you guys are getting is really good.

There should be a sticker identifying the company that re-packaged and distributed these. Call them and say that you got land, not a deck, when the box clearly states that it has 4 decks in it. I did this with one of the ones that had 2 decks in it a year or so ago. I got one deck and a land pack, called and as soon as I said that they asked for my address. A deck showed up in my mailbox a few days later... not a good deck, but better than a land pack. They didn't ask for any confirmation.

Only stickers are the "Value packs $29.99" and the UPC. Don't suppose you still have the contact info you used, must be the same distributor.
