Red Guardians - Real?

Those are real, I can assure you of that. Jaime is one of the most reliable sellers I've come across.

However, they aren't red. They only look that way probably due to a bad image. They are just normal guardians.

I don't think the claim is that the backs are red or redish, that looks like a bad picture. It seems the claim is that the colors on the faces are more vibrant, especially the color red.
 
Dude's just refering to the pips and face side of the cards. May be t11wants to throw down some green and red christmas guardians or some orange and black holloween. Dare i say what we are all thinking? Yup!!! I dare--- pink and white valentines cards to get our women gifts they will really like (if placed in a coach purse).

That's how I read it as well. If in doubt though, you could probably email Fullboatdealer and ask him if that's what he meant.

And Beanie Babies are Beanie Babies. And action figures are action figures. Both probably cost less than $0.10/unit to produce, yet sell for outrageous sums.

I don't understand why it's so difficult for some to fathom the fact that playing cards are collector's items for a substantial group of people - just like rare coins, Pogs, Giga Pets, etc. You might not pay huge amounts for a circular piece of cardboard, but there are plenty of others who would (and do). ;)
 
Quite a stupid thing to spend hundreds of dollars on in my opinion. If I were to buy cards that cost a substantial ammount of money, I think it's be pretty stupid just to let it collect dust on the shelf. So I'd use it...but if I did use...that would make it just like any other deck.
