I'm just wondering why japanese foils are so ungodly high? i saw a mother of ruins for like $100 and a crop rotation for $60. I just dont get it, so can someone explain it to me? thanks.

americans love anything imported.

maybe seeing a card with symbols instead of letters facinates people.. who knows.

I have a foil foreign bionic mastery.. why isnt that worth anything?

why do people use expensive guru lands over $0.01 white boarder 8ed lands? who knows.
I mean they do the exact same thing.

I never got into the whole "ooooo shiney or ooooo foreign" thing. so I guess I just dont get it either. probly never will.

high demand, low supply = high prices.

The hive mind has decided that Japanese cards are "the coolest", so they are the most expensive.
