Why is Archangel of Tithes so expensive?

I've been using a singleton Archangel of Tithes in my homebrew standard deck, and recently (especially at game day), it's been an all-star. The only thing stopping me from getting a few more copies is the $6 price tag. I find this price confusing because, while it's a great card and it's a mythic, I've yet to see any standard or modern decks use it. So what decks are using it and are keeping the price up? Or is there some other factor I'm not considering?

Its the Jace, Vryn's Prodigy  Flip effect. Mythic for a largely unopened set

It's probably played quite a bit on edh since its high devotion and angel tribal with a great effect.

Just look at Ghostly Prison taxing attacks is a staple in slower decks.

$6 is not expensive lol

But anyways it's because the set it came from wasn't opened a lot, lots of people like angel tribal, and it's an alright prison card.

The question is what is keeping it DOWN and the answer is what you've stated in this post.
