Lucky Breaks

[TelTura]

What are some incredible deals or strokes of luck that you've gotten in trades or ebay purchases?

The other day I got a lot of RotK boosters and got two foils in a single pack.  Then, even better, for a grand total of $4.75 after shipping, I got a lot of cards off ebay that turned out to have all the new cards that I just listed on my haves/wants list in bold, about 25 random rares from movie block, and 38 cards from the Reflections set (that's about 75% of them, for the lazy).  Best five bucks, ever.

So what's your best story?

Not to long ago I ran into some Hunter starter decks and managed to get them for around $4.50! One of them had 4 rares and another had The Ring of Doom, Shepherd of the Trees and Ulaire Lemenya, Eternally Threatening!

Also got a Pippin, Brave Decoy (P) for a dollar on ebay awhile back.

For 2-3 bucks I got a bunch of Gandalf rares from FotR-RotEL, Servant Of The Secret Fire, Friend Of The Shire-folk, A Wizard Is Never Late, Gandal's Staff, etc.

I bought someone's collection on ebay for a total of $10. It included about 300 movie block rares, many of them power rares.
