Good to see that MTG cards are still worth good money.
I made a small fortune selling Unlimited cards years ago. I never had too many Betas though
Actually Alpha cards
do not fetch a lot more. Believe it or not, a lot of people use the expensive cards in tournament play. You older players may remember type 1, now which is called Vintage format. Many tournaments will not let you play with Alpha cards, because their edges are slightly more rounded than every other subsequent set. In order of value, beta cards are the most expensive, then alpha, then unlimited.
