  1. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    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...
  2. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    Regardless of your intention when buying these objects, they have nevertheless accumulated quite a bit of value, and you're in possession of that value.

    It's like if you inherit some valuable...
  3. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    Still, if you miss out on an opportunity to maximize your return on these cards you missed out on a lot of extra cash. Sure, you have a job to pay your bills but missing out on thousands of dollars...
  4. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    Man, with the way prices are rising recently I'm half-tempted to just sell my entire collection. I think I'd make something like a 200% profit on what I paid for my collection if I just dumped it all...
  5. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    When would be the best time to sell all of these cards if you're sitting on a bunch of RL staples like Mox Diamonds, City of Traitors, and the like? I mean, I thought it might have been smart to cash...
  6. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    Uhm, wtf is going on with Grim Monolith and City of Traitors?
  7. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    Would now be a good time to cash out playsets of Arabian Nights, Antiquities and Legends?
  8. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    So all the Reserved List foil cards are basically spiking 1000%?

    I should have invested in foil Grim Monoliths!
  9. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    I still can't believe I bought a whole playset of MMA Chalice of the Void for $20 just a few years ago.

    And I bought several City of Traitors for $30-$60 a pop a few years ago, too.

    I thought...
  10. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    I don't know about the exact % of pros that like Legacy, but I've seen Owen Turtenwald, Reid Duke, Patrick Chapin, LSV, and Paolo Vitor Damo Da Rosa all go on record in some form or another saying...
  11. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    I can't believe I bought my playset of MMA Chalice of the Void for $20 just a few years ago.

    It really doesn't seem like that long ago that you could get Chalices for $5 a pop and now they're...
  12. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    So Chalice of the Void (both MMA and MIR) has spiked to over $60 for non-foils...

    I can't believe I paid $20 for my playset of Chalices ~2-3 years ago.
  13. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    On a side note but kind of related:

    Is this whole "Standard Showdown" thing they're trying to promote as an upgraded FNM a tacit acknowledgement on their part that even new players would rather...
  14. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    I tried it and it just feels like the most midrangey deck ever.

    Not that it isn't good, but man, it's just soooo mid-range.
  15. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    I always wondered if I was looking back at the old sets with nostalgia clouding my vision, but I recently cracked a booster box of Homelands (don't ask), and just looking at the art and the flavor...
  16. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    I can't believe there are buylists for major websites out there that are buying mass quantities of City of Traitors for $110.00 each.

    I mean, if you had some foresight you could have found piles...
  17. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    NM Beta?

    Remember, if you're trying to compete with the #mtgfinance gurus, you need at least 4 playsets of each Beta dual in NM condition.
  18. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    Ok. I've settled on buying 400+ copies of Quarum Trench Gnomes for $0.25 a piece. I expect to realize a significant increase in value when the entire secondary market of Quarum Trench Gnomes dries up...
  19. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

    OMG OMG What's next? What should I buy before it spikes?
  20. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    Wow. I know Craig a bit from the Eastern PA tournament scene.

    He actually is a pretty serious player - he plays Vintage, Legacy, Modern, all pretty competitively. Really nice guy in person too.
    ...
  21. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    Did you guys buy all those Collected Companies when they were still around $10-$12? If you had, like I told you to, about 8 months ago, then you could cash them out for twice as much or more now that...
  22. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    So I have 5 MM Eye of Ugins left, 4 in my modern Eldrazi deck to play while the deck is still unbanned, and 1 in my Legacy MUD deck.

    Question: Would I be losing alot of value if I held onto the...
  23. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    Wth.

    I was majorly upset with myself when I had to buy my Cities for $50-$60 or so after they had spiked from $30 a few years back.

    On another note - I hope you all bought your copies of Island...
  24. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    From my testing of Eldrazi pre-ban, Twin was almost a bye with a.) quick pressure b.) 4 dismember maindeck c.) disruption in the form of inquisition and thoughtseize.

    Once Warping Wail got printed...
  25. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    Or getting in on the Eye of Ugin train? You could pick these up everywhere for $3-4 and foils for $8-9 prior to a month ago.
