Man dont let my wife see what our decks cost me! Thanks for your efforts brother. I gotta say though ive built all my decks for roughly half those prices over the last few years, trades not included.
That's a lot of leg work on your part thank you for putting that together, I enjoyed the read but it reminded me that I am still down 3 Volcanics and 3 Trops and that makes me a sad panda.
Am I missing something? I'm pretty sure tcgplayer already does this.

Holy cow that link is awesome, thank you >^,^< I'm gonna put that in the main post if that's ok, people like to shop around and it helps solve that problem
EDIT-Actually I'm going to do that, and I'm going to implement that "range" total into the main post for each deck, that finally gives me a way to post the "lower end" of the prices without doing another week's + worth of work, thank you.

TL;DR
Btw Feline, help me make a 5 color 42 Land deck.
What? no foil prices? I mean seriously, if you're gonna play Legacy, pimp that shit out.
J/king. Great work bud.
One thing I have noticed is that you can do all of this a LOT cheaper if you are willing to do a number of things:
- Trade locally
- Trade online
- Compare prices, including ebay.
- Be patient.
I recently moved from a UBr storm list that featured a single sea and a single volcanic (and no Grims) to UW CounterTop entirely via trading out that deck, and a few ~$10 cards I had lying around.
As a minor quibble, the $ sign should be before the dollar amount.
Truth be told, you can probably buy all the cards for a deck for less than even the "low" range if you're willing to hunt around enough. For example, my deck is listed as having a "low" of about $700 (high of $1,200) but when I tallied up how much it actually cost it was still a bit less than even that.
Yea as far as trading goes, I had a "blargh" fnm night as far as matches / games / mullingans / luck / draws go, but my trade made it all worth it. I was at the point to where I was about to just sell my unhinged lands to a big card shop cause noone ever wanted them, then tonight I turned 11 unhinged forests, 7 unhinged plains, 8 innistrad packs, 2 stomping ground & 1 steam vent into a candelabra of tawnos, I had 3 candels for the obvious one and only deck they would go in, but I never got the 4th, and no the deck im refering to is NOT type 1.5 12 post >^,^< lol.

If I wanted to update this list, more specifically, I'd also want to update the name of the thread itself, since it'd be accurate since June, not April, does anyone know how to change the name of a thread? I have looked over the forum actions and even went to my profile page and I can't seem to figure it out, either cause I am unskilled in this area, or it's just not an option, and if you can't change the name of a thread, well I haven't been able to confirm that either.

Just make a new thread and for fucks sake don't use SCG prices. If anyone you know is paying a dollar for lightning bolts, 110 on volcanics, 120 on trops and $70 for Force of Wills please forward me their contact information so that I can severely lighten their wallet.
You are going to scare off all the new players. People only pay these prices on site or maybe for the last handful of cards they need to play a given deck on a time limit. No one should ever pay these prices for the entire deck, that is just insane. Under the SCG price guide my mono-red Standard deck is probably worth $300. I'd suggest MOTL or TCGPlayer High/Mid/Low.
big links in sigs are obnoxious -PR
Don't disrespect my dojo dude...
Sweep the leg!
Next to each total is a Range, that range, is from the High/Mid/Low from tcg player. >^,^<
