I thought the trade matcher got fixed. When I search for the card "Future Sight" no matches at all come up.

this is a known flaw with the trade matcher/price guide. in order to reduce/eliminate false positives from ebay data, any card name that is also a set name (Conflux, morningtide, future sight, time spiral, etc) just isnt in the database at this time. otherwise, any auction at all like 'future site tarmogoyf' would get either get skipped or lumped into both categories. it has been this way since before i joined.

though i agree it would be nice to be able to search for them, even if we didnt get them into the price guide.

cards that havent been printed in real sets (commander, archenemy, planechase) are not in the price guide/trade matcher at this time.
