Hype price trends

So, we all know the hype train has pulled out of the station full speed for Kaladesh and prices are driven up.

I am specifically looking to snag a playset of Verdurous Gearhulk ASAP. My question is: does anyone feel this is a buy now ($7.5 apiece) or will this drop as we come closer to release or shortly after?

Verdurous Gearhulk? I'd wait until a month after the set's release to even make a move towards getting them. The price will definantly go down once the set is released.

I didn't realize the cards were linked up here and able to be tagged yet. Really, you think a month out will be a huge price dip? I kinda need them to play the deck I am brewing. I highly doubt they seeing up, but where do you realistically see this card sitting Atony1400?

$3-$4 topps. I doubt it will settle any higher than that.

We will have to wait for more previews to determine whether these gearhulks will jump or dive. Spoiler season is a tricky witch.I usually dont pay more than 20.00 for a playset of anything anymore.Tired of losing money and it will continue until people get smart and stop preordering at idiotic prices.Omg chandra at 200.00 a playset..... No thanks ill wait until the dumbshits realize shes not a JTMS.

McSleuthburger, I need as fast as I can get them I suppose. I would appreciate the trades if you get any.

I think that the price will drop after the prereleases happen and more get into circulation. I don't think it's a $7.50 card. I can see it falling to $3-4 shortly after the set releases, unless a 'counters matter' deck pops up the first week Kaladesh is legal (which I doubt).

Shhh...don't tell people about that deck. Actually, that's not my idea for the deck. It's just a good midrange cars I want to play with.

The more hype, the more a set is opened, the lower the price will be. It will drop big time and then if it finds a home at some point it will go back up. As said two weeks after release is the best time
