[Official] Bitching About Prices, Buyouts and Reprints Thread

Be careful that Volkswagen doesn't perform too well getting you to Modern tournaments, otherwise DCI might target the Golf with a ban.

Thanks for the advice.
Would be bad to have to hitchhike to modern tournaments!

Well....that might be good, since hitchhinking and modern are both bad....

Printing their own miscuts and then trying to sell them for a premium price.

Now that is an interesting experiment.

LOL had to go back and look to realize it is a star city games token.

I know right? Lulzy for sure. Dont worry though. SCG isnt trying to rip anyone off or anything...

Sliver Queen, you so funny. Lowest on TCG Player is now $35, with the next cheapest at $50. Who knew that spoiling terrible Slivers would have this effect? Well, aside from everyone, that is. People be crazy.

[Star|Scream]

Reminds me of 1988-1989 when Baseball card companies realized that error cards were popular suddenly every maker printed tons of error cards in each set by "mistake."

That'll be awesome if Sliver Queen gets sold out everywhere, she's going for $40-60ea on ebay/tcg/sgc/etc... and she doesn't end up getting reprinted.

[TheAardvark]

Sliver Queen is on the Reserved List, so she won't be getting reprinted.

Lol, then speculators need to die in a fire of AIDs.

Huge increase in ONS fetchlands on SCG:

SCG is buying all nonblue at 25, Flooded Strand at 50 and Polluted Delta at 60

SCG is selling all nonblue at 50, Flooded Strand at 80, and Polluted Delta at 100

This would be a non-issue if there was no Reserve List.

So how long before the allied fetches get reprinted? Prolly not until RTR rotates, so not Theros block, but the one after?

And as a friend suggested, it's prolly a last cash grab for the legacy bit, because if Team Sealed steadily replaces Legacy Opens on the SCG circuit, the price of Legacy cards "should" drop.

Going to move my foil fetches. Stupid not to with the values at what they are.

[Oiolosse]

Going to move my foil fetches. Stupid not to with the values at what they are.

And doubly stupid to buy them at what they're at now!

Why did Rishadan Port just jump?

Why did Rishadan Port just jump?

Because atm Professional Traders buy up every (reserved list) staple of legacy and flip them for a fortune.

Legacy never had more metachanges within a limited timeframe or more playable Color-combinations than today so the current market is spinning like mad. The next meta-Shift is already viable at BoM.

The reasons for this are more direct, I think. Death and Taxes recently did very well in GP Strasbourg. Karakas went up immediately. Eiganjo Castle also spiked at around the same time. It was to be expected that Port would soon go up as well. Rishadan Port is not on the list, and neither is Karakas, for that matter.

Doesn't matter... don't you know the Reserve List is to blame for everything?

High card prices, poverty, famine, global warming, your favorite sports team never winning... all because of the Reserve List.
