No Axios, here in France, I've seen many crimped cards, from Beta to Mirrodin. The most beautiful crimped I personally saw was a Beta Mox jet NM and a City of Brass from arabian nights.

I had a slightly bottom-crimped Skullscorch that I got in a reject rare draft, but I sent it to dry_cereal.

thanks flattmatt 
If anyone needs incentive to send me crimps, I have just "padded" my printing account at the comp lab I work at 20,000 dollars and my next dry cereal token set will be coming out. Some will have rare harry potter backs and some will be crimped (by me personally).
My best cards are the ones I get from members, because they mean that much more to me.

Hey Gunslinga, glad to see Jon/Soupboy sold you the crimped Jet- it was mine for a few days, but I don't need two! It has some weird discoloration on it too, I think you'll like it.
I own abot 20-30 crimps, including Beta Shatter, Time Vault, Balance, Wrath, & Mox Jet. My first introduction to crimps was a box of Dark, that in all had about 30 crimped cards, some of which I still own. One of the crimps has a different "pattern" than all of the crimps I own & have seen. It is a bit odd. I like it.
