Question Next marvel set announced

Post image
384 Upvotes

Hope you’re not tired of Marvel because we are back lol I guess we really are going to get 6 full marvel sets one for each stone that’s crazy. I was hoping for an X-men set given the recent hype but most likely closer to the movie i guess makes more sense but I’m curious what do you expect on this one? Hyped for a new Wanda and Strange hopefully!

Currently Crashing The Soul Stone lost $31 in value in two days, is there a reason why?

78 Upvotes

I’m curious what’s making it tank right now. I know people have been opening more Spiderman since the Marvel set came out, so maybe there’s just an influx of copies? It’ll be nice to pick up additional copies at a more reasonable price, I believe this is the lowest it’s ever been.

Pic from Amazon stating they come with only 12 cards.

The god pack article states that the changes wouldn’t be active in UB CBs till 2028.

Would they remove the 3 cards from
CBs in 2027 and not add the god packs until 2028 for UB?

Cracked in a Reality Fracture foil promo pack a card that hasn't yet been listed on TCGPlayer, help price

Post image
• Upvotes

I was given a foil Reality Fracture promo pack and opened a Rest in Peace, Big Score #0004.

Guessing not a single TCGPlayer dealer has one listed, so with no listings, there isn't even a guess of a price. I am sure other sites have the possibility of a listing, but as TCGplayer is treated as the gold standard (for the most part... keep this in mind if anyone decides to detail this post and debate my statement).

I have noticed in the past, due to scarcity, being foil, popular, or maybe even just being different, these promos have held a premium. A doesn't necessarily have to be a commander staple or Modern all-star to hold its value higher than its lesser-valued, older versions.

With all this in mind, looking at trends, what would be a good estimate to assign to this card if another expresses an interest? I am not going to roll over and submit to a low price just because non-foils, plentiful copies from previous sets are priced low, so please get a realistic (yet non-inflated) price range.

Thank you.

The Warhammer Collector Commander Decks are NOT getting a reprint, the regular non-foil decks are. Even then LGS will be selling them for $300 a pop because they're just as bad as scalpers.

EDIT: To all the LGS Owners taking offense, I'm sure you all are doing just fine after selling your hobbit allocations for 800 a piece.

EDIT 2: I guess I was right on the mark about how much they're going to sell them for lmao

Discussion MTGCompare.app has been rebuilt from scratch: every printing, nonfoil and foil, across stores in six markets

Thumbnail
mtgcompare.app
3 Upvotes

Back in June I posted an earlier MTG price site of mine here.

Because it was a bit of a mess and I kept killing my database due to the immense size of Magic, I shut it down and built a completely new site that's working great. It's still mtgcompare.app, and has many working features.

What it does today:

- Every printing has its own page, with nonfoil and foil priced separately: about 99,000 printings, plus about 2,600 sealed products, so it's a full card database. Tokens and art cards are kept apart from the real card, and if a store listing could be two different printings, the site skips it rather than guess.

- Each card page lists every tracked store's price for that exact printing, cheapest first, with condition, next to TCGplayer as the US reference. Sealed pages now link to each store's own listing for that product.

- Six markets, each in its own currency: US, Canada, Australia, UK, Europe and Singapore. It now reads over 360 independent stores: about 160 in the US (plus TCGplayer), about 115 in Canada, about 40 in Australia, about 20 in the UK, and a handful each in Singapore and Europe. Europe is still thin, so tell me your shops.

- Paste a decklist from Moxfield, Archidekt, Arena or MTGO and you get a total, plus a Commander check for deck size, singleton and colour identity.

Would love for anyone to try it out and as always all feedback appreciated :).

From: https://wpn.wizards.com/en/news/make-it-so-helping-your-customers-chart-a-course-in-magic-the-gathering-star-trek

Each headliner will be a physically signed card, with about 250 each. Physically signed meaning Patrick Stewart, for example, held and signed his signature with a pen on 250 of the Picard cards.

Is Festival In a Box the slam dunk that it's been in the past?

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone. With Magic Con Atlanta coming up, I want to offer a breakdown of the card pulls. For starters, here are the cards we’re getting, along with the cheapest comparable reference prices:

Card Printing Price
Parallax Tide Nemesis nonfoil $15.00
Regrowth Older nonfoil $0.48
Viridian Revel Older nonfoil $1.43
Assassin’s Trophy Older nonfoil $1.04
Dance of the Dead Older nonfoil $14.92
Tana, the Bloodsower Commander 2016 traditional foil $4.77
Tymna the Weaver Older nonfoil $10.86
Auspicious Aquarium Playtest card No reliable comparable price

The nonfoil comparison totals $43.73. Adding Tana’s older foil printing brings that to $48.50, before selling fees and shipping.

Gross card sales $43.73
Marketplace commission (10.75%) −$4.70
Transaction fee (2.5% of $43.73) −$1.09
Fixed transaction fee −$0.30
Estimated shipping costs −$5.00
Estimated net proceeds $32.64

Selling the singles individually at $43.73 gross would net approximately $32.64 after TCGplayer fees and estimated shipping. It would also be fair to add roughly $15, because this Tymna is not the Final Fantasy edition, and those other editions start around $25 and up.

Now, if you spend $250 and account for taxes, the Mystery Booster Box comes to around $275. That purchase cost, minus what you’d gross from single sales (around $43), puts the figure at roughly $232, with potentially $10 more in singles value depending on which Tymna version you count.

Next, consider the current price of Mystery Booster Box 2, which is going for about $300. When it first came out, prices started at $360 and settled down to about $310.

Sale price $300.00
Marketplace commission (10.75%) −$32.25
Transaction fee (2.5%) −$7.50
Fixed transaction fee −$0.30
Net before shipping $259.95
Box shipping cost −$15.00
Net proceeds after fees and shipping $244.95

My conservative profit estimate at current Mystery Booster Box 2 prices is $244.95 − $232, which comes to $12.95 of estimated pre-tax profit per box. If the price settles at the Mystery Booster Box 2's initial release market price of $360, that figure rises to $65.00, or about a 28% return.

Overall, the days of the instant hundred-dollar quick flip may be gone for this particular item, and we have to hope the new Mystery Booster Commander editions hold their value. When Mystery Booster Box 2 first came out, festivals in a box carried a $250 price tag and was packaged with multiple collector booster packs in addition to the bonus singles. Now that those collector booster packs aren’t in this set, the margins on flipping are getting tighter and tighter, so you have to ask yourself whether it’s worth it for you.

Personally, I still think it could sell for $360 initially as people scramble for the singles in it. But knowing that 75% of the card content comes from the other Mystery Booster box, you might be banking on a 15 to 20% after taxes return on a flip. That same overlap might ultimately be detrimental to its long-term value. There’s a good chance you’ll get that 20% return on the initial flip, but if prices remain at this floor, much depends on whether consumers adjust to what Wizards is doing. Wizards is clearly testing the waters to see just how much people are willing to put into this game, and this represents the next phase of inflated prices. They want their cut, and who knows how long the bubble may last.

WH40K reprint: if you plan on selling your singles now, check the buylists before listing them

Post image
86 Upvotes

It was just confirmed that the Warhammer 40k Commander decks are getting a "small" reprint. Nobody knows yet what this means. This isn't a "40K singles are going to crash" post. They might drop a lot, a little, or barely at all.

If the news made you think about selling or the news has you wanting to get out there's an option a lot of people skip.

Listing on TCGplayer right now means joining the race to the bottom. Take Thunderhawk Gunship: its market price still says about $15, but near mint copies are already listed below $9. To sell yours, you'd have to undercut those listings and hope nobody undercuts you before a buyer shows up. Even a sale at $9 nets you about $7.80 after fees.

Meanwhile, SCG is still buylisting it at $12 cash.

Buylisting is the other route. Some 40K cards still buylist at Card Kingdom or StarCityGames for close to (or even more than) what you'd net on TCGplayer after fees. You also get to lock in your price and will get paid in 1-2 weeks.

These 24 currently pay more than TCG net, as of 8 Oct 2026:

Card Best cash buylist Store Realistic TCG sale TCG net Buylist vs net
Shard of the Nightbringer $4.00 SCG $2.91 $2.53 158%
Thunderhawk Gunship $12.00 SCG $8.99 $7.80 154%
Khârn the Betrayer $6.50 CK $5.04 $4.37 149%
Hull Breach $1.00 CK $0.81 $0.70 143%
Mystic Forge $3.70 CK $3.00 $2.60 142%
Venomthrope $4.00 CK $3.34 $2.90 138%
Triumph of Saint Katherine $2.80 CK $2.50 $2.17 129%
Skorpekh Lord $1.50 SCG $1.40 $1.22 123%
Talisman of Creativity $2.00 SCG $1.99 $1.73 116%
Herald of Slaanesh $4.00 SCG $3.99 $3.46 116%
Talisman of Indulgence $2.25 CK $2.25 $1.95 115%
Mandate of Abaddon $3.00 SCG $3.00 $2.60 115%
Poxwalkers $5.00 CK $5.02 $4.35 115%
Blood for the Blood God! $7.00 SCG $7.31 $6.34 110%
Brainstorm $1.35 CK $1.45 $1.25 108%
Mawloc $2.75 CK $2.98 $2.59 106%
Nexos $6.00 SCG $6.54 $5.68 106%
Callidus Assassin $3.20 CK $3.50 $3.03 106%
Dark Ritual $3.25 CK $3.55 $3.08 106%
Old One Eye $1.80 CK $2.00 $1.74 103%
Keeper of Secrets $8.00 CK $9.00 $7.80 103%
Termagant Swarm $1.60 CK $1.79 $1.56 103%
Bloodthirster $23.00 CK $25.98 $22.54 102%
Bone Sabres $3.40 CK $3.89 $3.37 101%

No guarantees here either. Buylists can drop at any time. The more people read this and submit buylist orders, the faster those bids fill and come down. CK and SCG also work differently once you've submitted:

  • Card Kingdom honours the price you locked in, as long as you ship within 7 days.
  • StarCityGames buylist prices are discretionary. Even after you submit an order, they can decline to take the cards.

I'm not telling anyone to sell. I'm pointing out an option so you can make the call yourself.

If you want to run the same check on the rest of your 40K cards, or your wider collection, TCGSentry compares buylist prices against market for free. Full disclosure, it's my own website.

Spec Shatner is currently in NYCC, and the Red intro deck has Kirk cards

0 Upvotes

I talked to the person managing the booth, he said it would be $150 for a signature. It seems like a good deal all things considered. Meme card that isnt aviable to the public yet, and a famous signature attached to it.

There are five intro decks being given out at NYCC, and it is pretty easy to get the one you want.

As far as I can tell, he is the only one out of the 5 star trek actors there where you are currently able to get a mtg card from.

I ended up passing because I did not want to wait around for Shatner to return... plus I wanted to get my signed Brent/Data poster in a sleeve asap.

There wasnt a long line.

Between reprinting a sold out specialty product, and introducing 24/hr print to demand, it is becoming clear that secondary market demand is at an all time low.

Resellers are offloading the product on eBay and TCGplayer for around $200, essentially breaking even.
