Blaaah what do I do with this Goyf?

General forum

Posted on June 4, 2015, 7:34 a.m. by FinchFalcon

I pulled a foil Goyf out of a box of MM15. I've never owned a card this expensive before- the closet I've got is foil Avacyn, which is less than a third the price of the Goyf.

I'd like to get to play with it, honestly, but that really sort of requires three more goyfs, and I don't have that kind of cash, nor do I have available trade bait.

Should I hang on to it? Hope that I can somehow collect a few more? Or do I sell it now for a sweet 350$ cash? Try to trade it for something? If so, what? Blaaaaaah.

Like actually, any and all advice is appreciated. Even if it's totally out of left field. I've got no clue what I'm doing.

If you can't afford the other 3/4 of the playset, then I'd suggest just selling it now and using the money to buy things you actually need.

Sell it to buy 2 other goyfs? Maybe even 3?

Either of the two above suggestions are good ones. I randomly pulled a Tarmogoyf out of a random Mondern Masters booster a few months ago (the only booster of that set I'd ever opened, FYI) and felt much the same as you do. There was no way I was getting the rest of the playset, so I ended up turning the goyf into a handful of slightly less expensive cards I actually needed and would use. (A pair of Snapcasters and a Force of Will)

I would trade it for a vast assortment of <$10 cards for my chronic EDH/Tiny Leaders habit.

Given my budget inclinations, I could probably build 2-3 EDH decks, and 10 TL.

saj0219 That seems like an awesome trade!
