So on Friday I beat a guy who had a fifth edition Manabarbs in his sideboard. I asked about it because I had never seen the art before, since fifth edition was in my 13-year hiatus. He said he really preferred the old and the new art better, but he had this one around to use as his fourth, and he’d really like to find a foil of the new art around.

Since I had just beaten him, and being the nice guy I was, I offered to trade him a pack-fresh foil Manabarbs from my binder in exchange for his slightly played ancient white-bordered fifth edition one. Foil Manabarbs is worth like a dollar anyway, so why not make someone’s day in an uneven trade?
