What edition?

What the heck edition are these cards?



Found this at a thrift store for $1.99, the two decks inside are still sealed. Trying to decide if I should go ahead and open them up or put them on Ebay. It's marked on the back 1995 WotC and Garfild Games, WOC6550. $19.95, and that's a "Homelands" checklist on the right-hand side.

Thoughts?

Also, I'll probably e cross-posting this to a few M:TG communities so sorry if you see it over and over and over again :)

EDIT: *PLEASE* tell me it's not THIS ITEM I found on Ebay! If it is, I just might faint!

From a Google of the SKU (WOC6550), it *seems* to be a 4th (Revised) edition gift box. Not the same to what you linked on EBay (which they describe as a 3rd edition one), but similar.

Hey, in fact, that same seller sells the 4th edition set (go to http://stores.ebay.com/Dave-and-Adams-Card-World and search for "MTG gift box", or try this URL if it works http://cgi.ebay.com/Magic-MTG-4th-Edition-Gift-Box_W0QQitemZ8750894277QQcategoryZ19110QQcmdZViewItem). It's selling for $31 rather than $136, but still a nice return on a $2 investment! :D

Man, I so wish I had kept more of my cards. $1.99 at the thrift store is an insanely lucky find!

Oh, and it IS a 4th edition. I had the same box. :)

1995 should be 4th edition (revised). That's far too late for it to have been an Unlimited box set.
