Well you said 80-100 and I got a little excited because that would be more than 3x profit for the amount I payed for mine. I also checked tcgplayer's listed vendors and none of them are selling for over $80, and that's for NM/M. So I don't know what stores you go to, but in 30 seconds the 6 stores I checked didn't have it for the amount you said, not even the lowest (80). And the fact that starcitygames, one of the most notorious stores for overpricing staples has it for only $50 sold out leads me to believe that the stores you go to are probably not the right ones to quote prices from.

Which picture do you want? Link me to the ones you want and I'll see what I can come up with. I have a bunch of basic land from the old school. On another unrelated note, played a 5-man EDH game today where a dude got to Genesis Wave 4 times...sometimes a table needs a blue player to keep those kind of shenanigans in line.

Playing some Legacy online and my opp kept tapping Karakas to return it self every time I tried to Waste or Sinkhole it. I was just trying to deny him of his only source of white mana. I had the game in the bag so I just thought it was funny.We were on game 3 of 3. We were talking the whole time. They are French. My French is two years of high school French so... After about the fifth time he bounced the land, I said,"you know you can't do that right?". It was then, all of the sudden, he didn't speak English anymore. Four more turns and he conceded anyway. __________________ NEQUAQUAM VACUUM If you list one of your interests as M:tG you send first.

but arbor can't tap for mana the turn it comes into play.. don't you mean to get her a turn earlier, or am I missing something?

Troll and Toad is buying NM Wastelands for $60. Not sure of their other prices, but I wouldn't be shocked if they were higher, too. __________________ 2010 Homer Simpson Award Winnerhttp://classic.magictraders.com/ubb/Forum12/HTML/016901.html

What are the chances that tomorrow, Wizards announces that "Action" is really Mirrodin Pure?If so, what are the chances that it's just an April Fool's joke? And what are the chances that it's a Next Level April Fool's joke, since they would, of course, assume everyone thought it was a joke since it was announced on April 1, but it actually turned out to be real? __________________ 2010 Homer Simpson Award Winnerhttp://classic.magictraders.com/ubb/Forum12/HTML/016901.html

Alot of people seem to be getting out right now and not everyone seems to be up to date, just saw a tempest/saga era collection get sold, had 8x wastelands, plus plenty of other legacy goodies, guy was looking at maybe 1k for it, store was planning on selling the legacy staples for what they were 10-15 years ago, cause legacy has maybe 2-3 buyers locally..:P __________________ I shall have the souls of all who defy me.

Doubt that will last long, I foresee a price war that won't end until one group stops raising their buy price, after all can't have your competition buying for more then your selling. __________________ I shall have the souls of all who defy me. "Lord Crovax"

All this talk about rising prices had me bummed that I traded off my extra Force of Will a couple month ago, but then I went back and found that I traded it for two Wastelands.

Wastelands are still selling for 50-55 on Ebay so unless T&T is the one buying them up, I don't see them at the 80.00 they are asking. I'm a little suprised that SCG hasn't raised their sell price a little. Edit: Their SP ones are now 55.

I wouldn't have second thoughts to decline the offer. scg was selling English ones at $100 so I'm sure the $110 JP Foil copy is a load of bs, or that he bought it ages back (same goes for the High Markets). I wonder if he is even on motl. If he only wants to refer to SCG as the only price guide, I'm sure a good number of members would love to sell him some cards at SCG prices.Reminds me of a motl member that said this when I quoted him close to $100 for a Japanese Foil karmic Guide. As usual scg was out of stock then.
Starcity just bought a Japanese Port on the bay for $185

GP Providence is the end of May. I would say by then or at the event. I'm thinking that dealers may be stocking up on Legacy staples for that event.

Could be right, and they might not be releasing them until the event and will sell them from infinite profit then! __________________ Member Since 03/28/2001 10000+ posts 3rd in posts in Ontario 15th in posts on MOTL Top 5 in Refs in Ontario (by people who location posted)
