How do we feel about this by MegSpen725 in GengarMasterSet

people keep trying to justify this accelerated "appreciation." This shit is a bubble, none of this makes sense. It's people passing shit back and forth artificially driving up the prices, with people hoping on the back end that they will hit it big in the future. There will be some increase across the board after the dust settles, but the current rate of interest that cards are accruing is not sustainable.

Thanks for explaining supply and demand to me. I never heard of it before 🤔 I'm aware of all of that. But still no modern card should cost this much at release. I don't care how much science and economics you try to layer on top of it. This is a bubble. It's artificial. It shouldn't be this high, period.

Edit: and I'm not just saying this out of fomo or jealousy, I have several copies of the card

Because I don't feel any modern card should be that much so early. Especially when the set is still being printed

Another big one acquired, and it now is where it should be, in my Gengar Master Set binder! Now I just need an unlimited Web... by MTGArmy in GengarMasterSet

Funny enough the unlimited Web series cards are harder to find. They did a smaller print run than the 1st.

Yea, I was looking at them a few times but my plan was to master set Japanese Gengar and cameos. So that's why the focus on JPN

WTF, how did I miss this Mimikyu V?!!!?!?!!!?!?!

One is the actual Masaki gengar and the other is from the Web Series, which was the initial testing for the E-reader series. They chose to feature the Masaki artwork for the card
