Alpha and beta duals have also skyrocketed. I remember seeing a number of alpha tundra's in nm- condition selling for $170-$230 a few months ago. Now a nm- tundra will easily break $300. Or the volcanics that are breaking $500 when they weren't even hitting $300 before. Absolutely ridiculous even for something as rare as alpha/beta duals. Why did people suddenly decide they wanted to spend twice as much on the same cards?
Tarmogoyf is actually $70 on the "cheap," and up to $100 on certain websites. I have the same problem you do, in that Tarmogoyf has not changed at all over the past year, but its price has more than doubled; same with the Alpha/Beta duals (price has not doubled, but increased significantly). There have been no cards printed that have made Tarmogoyf or duals better, so it is astounding to see their prices increase so dramatically. Though, it seems to me that if a person wanted Tarmogoyf, they would have gotten it when it was $25 after rotation, so why would people be buying them now if they did not want them then? All I know is that if Tarmogoyf gets to a steady $100, then I will be Goyf'less. My friend and I were joking that at $100 each, a playset of Tarmogoyf will buy three months-worth of burritos.
