Appraisal on my misprinted Plains/Island/Swamp?

I opened the land chunk in my Khans of Tarkir fat pack to find a misprint that spand three consecutive cards. From left to right, like a bubble in the ink, it leaves something like a slightly transparent cloud on the edge of my Plains border, all across the middle of my Island and a quarter the way across my Swamp. I was wondering how much a misprint like that would fetch. I looked for similar cards but to no avail. The misprints I read about are nothing like this. The spot even has a different, rough texture to it. Ill upload a picture tmro when I get the chance.
Ya know, Khans has a shit-ton of misprints, everything from no rare sticker, to this incident, I wonder what happoned to WotC's quality control. although, this may just be a side effect of the border change, like Mirrodin's grey mana symbols.

One of the guys at my shop pulled 5 (?) foils in his booster box that were entirely blank. Other misprints that i've seen from this set are foils missing a color, as well as those mentioned above.
Your ink bubble, while cool as you have all the pieces to it, probably isn't worth anything other than sentimental value.

Eh. You might get a buck each if you move the set or just the island.
I'd recommend building an Esper EDH deck and using them.

"Build an EDH deck."
Solid advice no matter what.

The blot is caused by when cards get wet before the ink has dried on them after they are printed at the factory. This is a pretty common error to have, so cards like these aren't worth much.
The good news is that it happened to basic lands. Definitely worth a bit more than regular lands, but not by much. People will generally want crimped or miscut cards, especially if they're trading for something like basic lands.

We can't tell you anything without a picture. Speculation is useless.
