Came across what appears to be a misprint Maze's End

So last night I was exiting a Wal-mart and decided to open up the two packs of Dragon's Maze I purchased. In one I got a Master of Cruelties, nice enough, but in the other I got a Maze's End. Maze's End isn't a particular card I care for but upon closer inspection the text was all smudged a bit, you couldn't see the outline for the colorless symbol either. As far as I can tell all of the black on grey text is smudged. I would provide a picture but I lack a competent enough camera. Is this card worth anything (Including more or less) other than the going price (which is currently ~2.30USD)?
mis prints and mis cuts can be considered more valuable in older cards, buyer permitting of course but newer ones it would be a pretty niche want for somebody. Take a look at SCG and see the prices of mis-prints, mis-cuts and mis-colour prints, they can be very pricey but its because it is a rare version of an already rare card. This might be worth double or more of its counterparts print in 10 years. but currently. maybe less

Thanks much for the help, wasn't sure what I was looking at. In the off chance it's valuable at some later time I'll hold onto it. Thanks again, I appreciate it.

I'd say you're most likely to find someone who'll generously accept it instead of one that is actually NM in a trade if you're lucky WAAAAY before you'll find somebody who actually values it as being worth -more- than a NM copy.

A smudged ink like Devonin mentioned is worth less usually than a regular print. The misscut usually show part of an extra cards are worth more and missprint are even rarer usually feature stuff that aren't supposed to go there the best example that come to my mind is the blue Hurricane .

I have the same thing, along with a bunch of gates. I got them all from a prize pool during one of the the dragonmaze pre-release. It seems the whole land sheet was double printed, or moved during printing and I have about half of the sheet.

It would be worth less, unless you happened to find a person that has decided they want to collect cards with smudged ink.
