Hey guys remember SCG was just sold out of 30+ LEDs at [s]$30.00[/s] $40.00 last week? Check them now, $50 listed with 13 in stock. Pretty fast stocking up there ;)

I think they had been at 40$ for ages. Were they really down to 30$?
Side note, it will be interesting to see what happens to Hunted Horror post Torpor Orb.
A quick look at eBay completed auctions for the black rare: more than 20 playsets were bought today only. (!)
I doubt they were down to $30 since they were well above $30 on eBay.
I think we'll see price increases for LED in the future. The only thing that scares me about LED is that it's powerful enough to reasonably consider that it may be banned at some point. I hope they don't print anything that will cause this as I like LED.
It seems like they're printing lots of useful hate. Ideally, all metas could be put in check (remember Tsabo's Web?) and players could learn to overcome powerful strategies. Unfortunately, my faith in this line of thought is tarnished by the banning of Survival.
Keep your eye on LED and if you ever thought about picking them up, I'd do it now. It can only go up in my opinion.
You can play unglued tournaments without jeans. Does that count?
On a more real topic...are people really trying to pull off Torpor Orb and Hunted Horror. It seems way too much into the danger of cool things. It may give you enough toys with Dreadnought though.
Whenever I see a kid in a wheelchair it makes me a little sad. Because I always think, "Gee, they could have used those same wheels to make a bike for a regular kid. What a waste."
Yeah, a 2 card combo needs to be more powerful than that...I'm thinking CB-Top or Painter-Grindstone as an example here...

This thread is getting derailed.
In other news:
WOw, Show and Tell is now really $25 a pop? I got mine for $2.50 each just more than a year ago. Good thing it's not on the reserved list.
Actually, I'm pretty sure it is. Every rare before Masques Block is one the list, I think.
Hahaha, if only the reserved list were that simple. Masques forward has no reserved cards, but only a few rares in Tempest and Saga block were reserved - so Show and Tell is not on it.
“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.”

Weird, I figured that one would be there, but I just had to check it anyway and sure enough. It seems like a reserve list thing. It's too bad they kept a bunch of that stuff on there. Some of those cards are just plain fun and never had a shot of being in standard, but would be great if reprinted today.
So has anyone noticed anything that New Phyrexia is affecting yet? I haven't really caught anything other than I noticed some slight price drops on a few of the lately overhyped items (swords, waste, and such).
I got mine on eBay for $25-30 sometime around December. They were on the rise from $25 from the month before IIRC.
WOW. You're right. What a fucking cluster fuck of bullshit. How and the fuck does this make any sense?
Only thing I've noticed so far is Hunted Horror. SCG is out of stock on non-foil at $2.99 and has 4 foils in stock for $5.99. Meanwhile Channel Fireball still has a Japanese non-foil in stock at $0.49 (the normal price before Torpor Orb was spoiled).
I wonder how high Mental Mistep will go. It looks to be starting at $4 or maybe it will go a bit higher before the release of the set. I think that there will be a high demand initially for this card, as Legacy players will want their set ASAP. However, MM probably won't get played much in Standard, where one-drops are not so crucial. As more product is opened, the price of MM should drop in the coming months.
I see more than others do because I know where to look.
Picked up a cheap preorder playset of Mental Misstep sooner today. I doubt this will be worth more than 5-6$ each ever, but this shows amazing potential for Legacy. We never know though, regarding price. This is in a rather small set, will be drafted less, etc. Will be interesting to see how it goes, but I'm guessing it will become a staple.
I wouldn't expect Mental Misstep to be worth more than $2-3 in a few months, considering that Spell Snare is $3. I'm really not seeing it at $4, which is what it's currently ebaying for.
eventually - years away - it should have a much higher value than snare
no reason it can't be vial level

I have a hard time imagining that. People build decks around Aether Vial. If you don't answer it, it can shut down entire strategies and gives you a big advantage against control and aggro decks. If you don't "answer" a MM you get 1 for 1'd. Which is nothing to write home about.
the value of vial (like everything else) is based on supply/demand
if misstep becomes required in the same way force is, then it could hit a similar level to vial - but of course that's many years away
