    The M11 buy a box promo was alt art foil Birds of Paradise. BoP is common acronym for it. It was $20 for a looooong time. It's now $100 thanks to artificial buyout.

    Buy a box foil promo BoP is $100 now. Was at $20 forever.
  3. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    I've never used Deckbox (other than to organize my massive collection), so I can't tell you how they compare. I can tell you that Pucatrade has allowed me to turn my chaff (FNM promos, average...
  4. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    I just started using Pucatrade this week and I really like it so far. I've been able to unload a fair amount of chaff and I'm going to turn it into either (a.) Guru lands or (b.) finishing Shardless...

    That argument has been used countless times before, and it's invalid now as before, as you have no idea what that Beta Wrath of God would be worth today if those thousands of reprints never occurred.

    This is a rather elitist attitude to take. You're implying that Standard is overrun with immature children who barely know how to play Magic while Legacy is some bastion of highly skilled, competent...
  7. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    I agree with Hollywood; I don't care if a deck is 1-3 or 2-2, as long as it's interesting, innovative, and lays the foundation for improvements and potential tweaks, then I want to see those decks...
  8. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    LED is a card I've always viewed as underpriced. It's the backbone of many combo decks, it's unique in form and function, and it's on the Reserved List.

    Is there a reason City of Traitors is $95 on tcg?
  10. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    There have been legions of competitors that market leaders have had to deal with... the vast majority of them have either remained a minor player in the industry or sputtered out and died.

    Also,...
  11. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    Again, I don't see how SCG, a market leader, having the financial muscle to do whatever it pleases is any different than other industry leaders (Wal-Mart, Apple, etc) flexing their muscle and...
  12. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    The market leader has always been able to do that. The ramifications are that either (a.) the market marches to SCG's drum or (b.) the market will reject whatever SCG is doing and SCG will have to...
  13. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    This is true. They also stock rare and hard to find items that I can't easily find elsewhere, so I'll pay whatever for the convienece. Also, they're reputable, so you won't worry about getting...
  14. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    I buy from SCG, just like any other online store/seller, when I find the best deal for a specific card I'm looking for. Also, SCG's card condition tends to be better and more accurate than some...
  15. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    I have an excellent credit score and make a fair amount of money annually, but have little in cash reserves (a factor when trying to get a loan) and only a few thousand saved for a down payment (even...
  16. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    Maybe, maybe not. I mean, I definitely didn't ever think Volcs would be at $285 mid-tcgplayer, but here we are. $500 in another 6-9 months isn't an unreasonable estimate given it's recent price...
  17. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    Yep, keeping my Cube, my 1 Modern deck, and probably 2 Legacy decks. Everything else I'm going to cash out and use that money towards a home downpayment. Once Volcanic hits 500, that's prolly when...
  18. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    Yeah, I'm going to cash in all of my cards save for 1-3 decks I regularly use. All of the other stuff like my seldom used duals, fetches, etc will be cashed in once they go up higher.
  19. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    EDH seems fine for that, but competitive formats won't let that slide; there will be differences in wear from one sleeve to the next, even if they're all the same color/brand. This can cause...
  20. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    $140 Wasteland is irritating. I mean, if you haven't already gotten in, you likely never will with the way these prices are skyrocketing with no obvious end in sight. Remember the days when...
  21. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    I honestly don't think Wizards will touch anything in Pod. I do think that Affinity and Pod will see a crazy price jump like Twin saw after PT Valencia.
  22. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    Apparently it'll be mainly white w/ a black splash for removal only, that's why people are thinking a Marsh Flats (or two!) will be included.
  23. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    So, the Modern event deck is supposed to have Elspeth 1.0 (confirmed), Hero of Bladehold (confirmed) and Marsh Flats (unconfirmed, but very likely). Thoughts?
  24. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    So is ebay still the best way to get mid-TCG returns? All of the major online retailers I've looked at offer 50-60% cash mid-TCG value.
  25. Re: [Official] Bitching About Prices and Reprints Thread

    That's what I'm thinking. When I find a house that I want to put money down on, I'll need to sell off my collection. I can piece it out on ebay, but is there a better method that will get me as...
