Man I wish I had gotten a playset of foil Grim Monoliths to complete my Eldrazi Post deck a while back. Right now you're luck to find them for $1k a piece. Insane. That's the one card that I can't really rationalize foiling out in the deck at the moment.

Lol this reminds me of when I returned to Magic back in 2009/2010 after a seven or eight year break. There was a piece of my collection that I hadn’t sold (2001-2003 era extended and type II decks) and it contained a foil Grim Monolith. I didn’t feel like I needed it so I took it to a store in Federal Way, WA and the guy offered me $30 in credit. I used the credit to pick up two Candelabra of Tawnos.
Prices sure have changed a lot in eight years.

Someone offered a trade of a foil GM for my foil 7th Ed Japanese BoP about a year or two ago. I turned it down. Did I commit /r/mtgfinance sin?

In the Masters Division a Zoroark / Garbodor deck carved a path to a first place victory. I looked up how much it would cost to buy these cards online and, at the time of writing, this deck would cost a whopping £237.40 ($305) to build. Second place went to a Malamar deck, another staple in the format, which carries a price tag of £145.52 ($187). In at third was a Zygarde / Lycanroc deck to the tune of £168.70 ($217), and finishing in fourth we have a deck using the recently released Rayquaza-GX from the Celestial Storm expansion. This one would cost £213.40 ($274) to build with cards purchased from online sellers, and as it happens similar Rayquaza decks also filled in three more spots in the top 10 at 5th, 7th and 10th.
:laugh: can you imagine! Triple digits for A WHOLE DECK. Jeez!
Anyway, yeah, come up in my news feed, made me laugh.

Looks like the craziest spikes are now settled for a moment.. Are the prices slowly going back to normal (Grim Monoliths, Gaea's Cradles, Cities of Traitors etc) which are printed a lot.

If you've wanted to pick up a luxury/high-end Legacy card, and only want to spend a very large amount of money rather than an obscene amount, things are actually looking up for you

Art shown close up in the video starting at about 7:49.
Also mentioned is that fetches will get further reprints in a non-Standard set in 2020, so possibly the Commander Legends set.

What is up with Orim's Chant right now? The card jumped to $45 (mtggoldfish price). Ebay reflects a big jump and the big stores are sold out.

Yeah, other "odd" stuff like Worldly Tutor as well, I guess. Just another day in the life...

Just give credit where it's due... I love that alt-art Doubling Season box topper. So happy it was f'n cats. Baby dinos, MTG still knows how to do a few things correctly.

Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread
How have we gone this long without more bitching? I've been chuckling to myself when I see threats of class action suits over the laughable card quality. I'm not Perry Mason (does anyone on this forum get that reference?) but I don't think there's much of a case for buying a product that no one is forcing you to buy. That being said, there must be creative ways to send Wizards a message. Besides putting a sign in the parking lot, playing Arena, and boycotts...
Luckily, my LGS tends to get new releases that are printed in Japan but those boxes are in limited supply. When I see sealed product "Made in the USA" I have to reconsider my purchase; the card quality is unacceptable. When do people catch on and start listing print quality on eBay, TCG player, etc? At some point people will be willing to pay more for better printed cards, right? I tried this one selling a Japanese printed Expedition fetchland, but it didn't seem to matter. The cardstock and glossy accents on those Japanese expeditions is noticably better.
Happy new year Source!!

A phrase I honestly never thought I'd hear in a MtG thread (let alone a finance one, lol).
Happy New Year!!!
