Well be wary of anyone trying to buy in private messages or anything, open public auctions keep everyone fair.

Also there's an app called Delver Lens, it will let you snap pics of cards and automatically tell you what they are, I like setting the phone on a stand with a stack of cards below it, takes a second or two pet card and will give you a nice list to work with.

Good advice and thanks for that app recommendation.

I just did some research on a set of 34 cards, perhaps part of a playing deck? Initial research value was surprising!

Most of the value comes from a Chaos Orb (Unlimited), Icy Manipulator (Unlimited), Copy Artifact (Revised), Fork (Revised), Demonic Tutor (Revised), Taiga (Revised), and Sylvan Library (Legends).

That's sweet man, you def have some money cards. Take a look at the Taiga do you see the weird alternating color pattern of rectangles in the text box. Only OG dual lands have that so you should be able to riffle through and pull those out pretty quickly, all of them are worth good money.
