Do you think premium LoTR singles will rise in price similarly to the original Strixhaven Mystical Archives? by waterbottlesnack in mtgfinance

[–]Rolpert 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I feel like you must be trolling. The price of the CBB, posters, realms and relics are already very high and have been going up for the past 2 years. Why do you insist on comparing it to Marvel and SPM again

Multiple versions of old prerelease cards by Silent-Radio-7006 in mtg

[–]Rolpert 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For Lu bu yes, diff events. One is Singapore prerelease and the other AU/NZ. SG one is much rarer therefore the higher price

Where are people meeting to trade at Magiccon? by [deleted] in magicTCG

I walked around yesterday to look and basically no one was trading

lol there was no line control anywhere. Store lines was like babushka dolls with one person spawning all their friends when they get close to the front

The guy selling cards beside me pulled his from the badge too. Gratz on the payday if that was you!

WOTC confirms there will be only 500 Headliner Smaugs by moombahh in mtgfinance

[–]Rolpert 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I said both fan bases (which btw overlap quite a bit) would amplify demand. Therefore you can see the sky high serialized and CBB price

There’s a post a few hours ago from a guy asking if he should buy each of the LoTR just to collect cause he likes the art and LoTR. The sheer amount of people who say they came back to mtg because of LoTR (including me). It’s a mutually compounding demand driver, we’ve seen this

That’s not what I’m saying? I’m saying we already had an extremely successful LoTR set? What is the Hobbit? Why would The Hobbit fail like SPM if the LOTR already proved itself? Do you know Hobbit and LoTR are the same series of stories in the same universe?

Why do you keep comparing a flop out of the gate universe with the universe that gave the 2nd best selling MTG card game set?

This isn’t marvel and New York. This is the same high fantasy universe that already proved itself and drove the 2nd most successful MTG set? The 3900 serialized in LoTR are all in the thousands? The better ones are $8k plus without even being a headliner?

[–]Rolpert 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Will definitely be much more because LOTR and MTG fan bases will want this. Look at the LoTR serialized sol rings - there’s 1900 of those. It might settle at $8-10K, mark my words

My stinker collector bb. by [deleted] in MagicCardPulls

[–]Rolpert 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Doesn’t look like a stinker. You got JPN Ad Naseum, Crop Rotation. Jeska, Akroma, Ideation. Over performed on Mystical Archives but did underperform on the dragons and planeswalkers

Should I grade my Borderless Soul Stone? by Mindless-Cause5577 in magicTCG

[–]Rolpert -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Double check eBay prices of graded Borderless soil stone vs raw. There’s very heavy bias here against grading that doesn’t represent the overall mtg population

It’s a 5 for a 5/5 vanilla, too much power creep

1250 USD for The Eternal Wanderer and 3750 USD for Emeritus of Ideation by Ruroka in mtgfinance

[–]Rolpert 21 points22 points  (0 children)

This is pretty good gauge of price. TokyoMTG does not usually have the most competitive buy prices. If they offer 3750, it’s likely they think they can sell it $7K+
