In trying to figure out a price on this. eBay items are closing around 200, but there is one listed at 470. Earlier in the month one closed out 450ish. Most of these are coming from Russia/Ukraine. Is it possible I can get more than 200 since I'm in the US?

Don't try and milk it. If you're wanting to get rid of it, just throw it up for auction. I did this before with a Foil Korean Past in Flames. I waited and waited trying to get the most I could out of it. Finally, an ebay auction ended at $150. I put mine up and it didn't sell for $75... ended up trading it away a few months later at a GP. If I had just thrown it up for auction to begin with, I may have gotten one of the early people looking for and willing to pay for it.

I'd give you 125 in trade for it. Russian foils aren't worth double a regular foil by any means.

5. When responding to a thread, you MAY NOT express interest in a card or collection. Keep in mind that this is NOT a trading forum. If you want to make an offer for something, you may email, PM, or IM the poster.

Nope, they can be worth 2x, 3x, 4x or more depending on the card.

How high is the Russian print run of new sets compared to when they first started printing Russian?

Actually, a lot.
Main influence is that now many people know "Russian Foil" commands a higher price above other languages. Doesn't matter if it is 2-5x prices or just 1.25-1.50 prices, anyway it is a premium.
=> USA, Europe, Asia sometimes open russian packs for profit. Very rare, but it has influence.

Everybody in Russia knows "You may try to sell card on Ebay to get some money", so all and each newly opened card goes to worldwide market.

There has been 17 promo archangel of avacyn sold on local russian trade forum. That's huge.

When you're talking about russian multipliers also consider this.

This is a standard cards where it has a higher value right now than it will 2 years from now.

Archangel Avacyn while a sweet standard cards IS NOT snapcaster mage, deathrite shaman...or hell even grim lavamancer.

So the multiplier is going to be lower than it would be for cards b/c it's already over priced as a standard staple and will drop in value a lot 12 months from now.

So I wouldn't laugh at people who question the multiplier. I'd take the advice of the user who said dont try and milk it. the best time to sell this is when you have a buyer for a price you're ok with. if you try and hold out b/c so and so said it's worth x amount ask if THEY will pay that amount. Otherwise, move it to whoever will give you the most for it and don't try and milk it.

that's my 2 cents. hell, what i'm i talking about - that's worth 3 cents easy

Edit: Also note that there are still a couple listed on MKM with a NM copy at 195.95 EUR so less than that amount.
