Not sure if this is the right threat, but wasn't there some rumor to reprint special cards for SOI like expeditions? Or was this untrue?
Does anyone know of a forum or site that tracks markets of old school and other similar formats? Probably a shot in the dark, just trying to keep up with market movement in one place.
To keep on topic: mind twist and other sweet edh abu cards like nevs disk etc have gone to bat shit crazy prices. They don't even sell anymore because people ask too much. An unregulate money market is a helluva thing to observe
Legacy deck of choice: Enchantress
20 euro here for that card. Still an awful lot of money for an obsolete rare, which costs less than a quarter of that in revised. I need about twenty or thirty halfway playable (in 93/94) rares, which have all ballooned like that. Thank goodness for that NM chaos orb which I found at a LGS, where they hadn't updated their prices for old cards with almost zero mobility in over a year. Those stupid Swedish hipsters have created an explosion in the prices of completely forgotten cards, for no good reason. AN Serendib Efreets had been in the 40-50 range for almost a decade, I had a long term project to get a playset for a fun deck. Guess I'll have to settle for FBB now.
It hasn't exactly exploded, but I noticed Mayor of Avabruck is going up a little. Speculation because of this new block or is there something else going on? I know it made a quick splash in Vintage a while back.

It was used in Dr Edge's Laboratory. As for why it would see movement now, I am thinking people are wanting to play tribal Wolves and are hoping for some good shit when the next set comes. Also there is a Legendary Wolf in the next Block so there may be some EDH movement.
Mayor of Avabrucks increase is probably the same as Serra's Sanctum after they announced the Enchantment-themed Theros block. Also, after we saw Fiery Temper spoiled for SOI, madness cards had a little spike, most notably Big Game Hunter.
People are just on high alert nowadays considering how volatile the market has become. Everybody has a friend who's enjoyed a spike on cards from Lantern of Insight to Thunder Spirit and everything in between and they want to hit it big on the next spike. If things keep up, we'll continue to see very odd buyouts on obscure stuff.
UB Tezzeret got a push from modern unbannings. Now a 30€ card.
Some of my friends sell records,
some of my friends sell drugs.

I've played Tezz in legacy before as well. The card would still be crazy good if he didn't even have his -4 ability. His -1 is nuts. So many people don't realize, first, that you can attack with the creature that turn (usually), and second, that it is not a 5/5 until EOT, it is a 5/5 forever.
I thought I posted it in this thread. Turns out I was wrong and it was the MTGO thread.
Be aware of Rishadan Port and watch its price closely. Today on MTGO, there was a 25$ drop out of nowhere. Could be insider information at work.
I'm going to be really shocked if it isn't in the set so moving them now seems like the smart thing to do if you don't play them regularly. I'll be bummed when my ports crash but removing the artificial price-ban on Death and Taxes and Lands will be great for online.
