How much is loyal retainers at? I swear it was at 40 a week ago.
Isn't that only used in bant survival anyway?
On mkm there are 2 right now
Japanese for 55 bucks
and English for 170.
I havent seen any on ebay.
Just picked up 3 for 55 a piece, I checked over the last few weeks and nerarly every single one in stock got bought.
Maybe I keep one and resell the other two when I can get even.
It was used exclusively in BantSur, but some "normal" Survivals seem to apply the tech as well.
The last available one just broke 280 Euros.
The seven cardinal sins of Legacy:
1. Discuss the unbanning ofLand TaxEarthcraft.
2. Argue that banning Force of Will would make the format healthier.
3. Play Brainstorm without Fetchlands.
4. Stifle Standstill.
5. Think that Gaea's Blessing will make you Solidarity-proof.
6. Pass priority after playing Infernal Tutor.
7. Fail to playtest against Nourishing Lich (coZ iT wIlL gEt U!).
I can't get you guys on complaining about this. If you're buying from privates, you will always find a way to pay cards for the right cost. It's obvious that Starcitygames and such will carry on lifting the prices, as long as there are dumb people who get out their credit card of the pocket instead of moving ass a bit and searching at local tourneys, with the consequences of paying twice the right price of a card.
I can buy a set of Wasteland for 35 euros, and this is from quite 2 years. Tabernacle is still at 60 euros; Force are set cold on 75 euros from 2 years. And I live in Italy, which is the country of thiefs, heck, you can see it even from the government!
Seriously, avoid SCG and get some contacts with the right people. There are tons of possibilities to get cards without being ass-raped, even nowadays.
Just to throw this out there that Dreamhalls and Show and Tell are both on the rise. I looked on E-bay for shits and both are around 50 for a play set.

Those prices will not last long Piceli, if indeed they exist.
“It's possible. But it involves... {checks archives} Nature's Revolt, Opalescence, two Unstable Shapeshifters (one of which started as a Doppelganger), a Tide, an animated land, a creature with Fading, a Silver Wyvern, some way to get a creature into play in response to stuff, some way to get a land into play in response to stuff (a different land from the animated land), and one heck of a Rube Goldberg timing diagram.”

I bought 4 show and tells for 30 shipped today on ebay. Not 50 yet.
I gave my play-set of Japanese show and tells away to a friend for his birthday last month because they was a card he wanted and they was cheap at the time
As long as we're complaining about card prices, Elspeth has been spiralling upwards lately as well. She was holding steady at $20-25 for a long time, but apparently Extended finally realized she was good, and now it's ~$35, with some sellers pushing it towards 40.
Didn't stop me from buying two just now, because, well, I need them for the deck I want to play. :( Obviously that's the mentality that pushes card prices up. In short it's never been a better time to already own expensive cards.
Also, there's a neat website called Black Lotus Project that tracks card prices over time using MOTL data.
abugames still has loyal retainers at $40. not many left but they are still in stock.
awesome
show and tell / dream halls.dec is crap, i hope everyone plays it.
