Economics forum
Posted on March 29, 2015, 3:24 a.m. by thebdizzle
Just for fun, what cards do you own that are valuable?
I am interested in what your top 5 cards are value wise, based on TCG Player Mid...
Mine are -
Bayou (Revised) $155.25
Force of Will $110
Rishadan Port $99.24 (only one that I actually pulled from a pack, while Masques was "standard")
Jace, the Mind Sculptor (Worldwake) $93.49
Liliana of the Veil $90.00
Total value: $547.98
If you have any cool stories about how they became yours, feel free to share.

Cryptic Command $57.17

Splinter Twin $27.44

I have various Stom Crow. I win.
Other than that, my most valuable cards are Thoughtseize and Stormbreath Dragon.
March 29, 2015 3:44 a.m.
Whatever the most expensive cards are in my Razing the Stakes.
I think that's Yawgmoth's Will
, Snapcaster Mage, Cryptic Command, Wheel of Fortune, and Jace, the Mind Sculptor.

Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite phyrexian judge version $499.99Gaea's Cradle foil $399.99Bazaar of Baghdad $399.99Dack Fayden foil $299.99Demonic Tutor foil $249.99
total $1849.95

thebdizzle I was lowballing on purpose... but I didn't realize the cards value had fluctuated that much since I bought them. Thanks.
You foil players of course, lol. Win everything. I'm astonished the Dack Fayden foil is worth so much.

Wow maiden77, that's impressive.
jraynor, you're welcome. I use MTG Familiar on my Android device, it's a free app, that's what I always use when trading. I agree about the foil deal, Legacy, Vintage and Modern playable foils are highly priced.
Octrate, I had no idea that Yawgmoth's Will was ever printed in foil, thanks!
March 29, 2015 4:40 a.m.
My top five are:
I also have Jace, the Mind Sculptor, a couple of red Revised duals, Wasteland, Vendilion Clique, and a plethora of other Modern and Legacy staples.

These are the ones that I know of. I'm sure I've got other cards worth more than a couple of these, but I don't feel like looking through all my binders and decks.

Wurmcoil Engine (promo) $14.44
Mikaeus, the Unhallowed $12.02
Cabal Coffers (planechase) $13.36
Whisperwood Elemental $14.49
Compared to some of the cards I seen others in this thread post, what I have is just pocket change lol.

Mine:
Goblin Guide 20$
Mana Reflection 18.5$
Vorinclex, Voice of Hunger 15$
Seedborn Muse 12.5$

Wow, I didn't know these Green Commander cards where so "expensive" :)
March 29, 2015 5:43 a.m.
Tarmogoyf x 5 - roughly $200 each.
I was super excited when I got one of the old school ones because I didn't have one for ages.
Yes I collect modern staples.
March 29, 2015 6:50 a.m.
maiden77 - how did you manage to pick up the phyrexian else norn?

Mine are probably the foil Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite and my Commander's Arsenal Scroll Rack but other than that I can't think of what might be particularly valuable out of what I own.
March 29, 2015 8:30 a.m.
FAMOUSWATERMELON says... #20
That moment when you are digging through your cards to find something of value and you fall on a foil Karn Liberated...
So my list would be:
1- Foil Karn Liberated at about 100 bucks, maybe a bit more
2- Wurmcoil Engine sitting at around 14 bucks
3- Sheoldred, Whispering One at around 13 bucks
and a bunch of other card that I'm too lazy to put down that are floating at the 10 dollar mark.

Abrupt Decay ~$70
Breeding Pool ~$40
Umezawa's Jitte ~$35
Honorable mention to my foil Eighth Edition Storm Crow which I recently found out is ~$20 lol (though it's still not even in my top 10).
I had a Force of Will, Lion's Eye Diamond, and Savannah but I traded them all away.

FAMOUSWATERMELON says... #32
I just realized Storm Crow foils go for about 25 bucks.

Oops.
Anyway, looking back I just realized that all five were from packs.
March 29, 2015 1:18 p.m.
FAMOUSWATERMELON, try from sites that have foils to sell. You can get Storm Crow for $0,16 from magiccardmarket.
March 29, 2015 1:20 p.m.

Luutamo Ninth Edition, yes. Seventh Edition, no.

tcg player mid total = $1,403.36
I have playset of Lion's Eye Diamond and Force of Will, but they didn't make top 5 among others I got. Although the force used to be my top card along with my Jace, the Mind Sculptor. I think that is the top cards I got, though something else I forgot might shift the 5th place out.
March 29, 2015 1:24 p.m.
FAMOUSWATERMELON says... #39
Holy crap zyphermage, you make me look like a hobo...
March 29, 2015 1:25 p.m.
Probably from my deck I Don't Play Well With Others.
Imperial Seal $862.79
Force of Will (Promo) $799.95
The Tabernacle at Pendrell Vale $729.51
Jace, the Mind Sculptor (Foil) $547.19
And then 1 each of these moderately played duals Underground Sea (Alpha), Tundra (Beta), and Scrubland (Beta). $4800, $2000, and $1200, respectively.
The deck is worth almost 20K, as I have purchased and traded for a lot of high-powered EDH staples, and have many more decks where I swap these cards around.

zyphermage says... #41
Oh yeah this guy has me beat good. I don't go for foils much. When I do get foils, it is only to trade for the non-foil version plus other cards from someone.

Mox Diamond -$28.27- Pulled it out of a pack of Stronghold I got for my birthday.
Sorin, Solemn Visitor -$26 Foil- Pulled it from a pack that also had a Wooded Foothills in it.
Brimaz, King of Oreskos -$22- Pulled it from a pack that I got when I opened my first intro pack.
March 29, 2015 3:33 p.m.
This is a cool idea, so, my cards are:
1x Damnation
March 29, 2015 4:16 p.m.
ChiefBell the only guy on ebay.co.uk that ever sells judge foils (hes a judge) is where I usually get my judge foils from to be honest. And with that, I knew it would be insanely valuable so I snatched it up, it's tripled in price since then too :-) I got the judge promo lands from him too at a bargain price. I'm looking forward to him gettin the latest haha. Ooo i just thought, judge foil Survival of the Fittest is more expensive at 299.99, nearing that 2k mark lol

ToolmasterOfBrainerd says... #45
I got you all topped. Read em and weep!
- Ashiok, Nightmare Weaver $16.70 now, got it for around $5
- Darkslick Shores $3.73, but I got 3 so....
- Jace, Architect of Thought $2.94, but I also got 3 of him so...
- Drowned Catacomb $2.45, but again I have 3. Eat it.
- Drown in Sorrow $2.35, but I have 4!!!!!!!!! I know, shocking.
You all should just quit the game. Your cards will never even come close to my value. I even have, get this, a FOIL Thassa's Devourer.
If you can't tell, I'm pretty new to the game and have absolutely nothing of value. But hey, I do take the prize for least valuable collection.

Poptartz95 says... #50
Uh not sure on the price of some of these I will just go off TCG
Avacyn, Angel of Hope
I dont honestly know how much German of these are assuming like $300? could be wrong though just going off ebay for this one O-o
Ravages of War $350 I think
Moat $315
Liliana of the Veil $200
Ugin, the Spirit Dragon $150 Pulled from a pack :D:D:D:D:D:D
Total Value (again not even 100% sure on the actual value of some of these I just went off TCG, and Ebay) $1315
The interesting story is how I got my Avacyn, Angel of Hope I just was playing against a guy, and he just played it, and I was like "OH MY GOD ITS SO PRETTY I WANT THAT" so I asked him to trade, and he couldnt find the value of it (this is back when Avacyns Restored just came out also) so he just went off the normal english price XD cause if I am correct people prefer like korean, and Japanese over German/Russian again i could be wrong, just in my personal experience I meet more people who want Korean/Japanese then German/Russian :D but ya shes my baby!
