  1. Where do you go to find out when the next PTQ is going to happen? I’m glad I read this article cause I had no idea these cards had dropped down this far in prices.

  2. Useful advice here. Especially on the penny stocks, I mean crap rares. I was curious if you generally stick to non-foil versions of your speculative plays, or do you also purchase (or at least consider) purchasing foil versions as well?

  3. Foils aren’t good if you’re looking at high demand, MTGO tournament staples. I think Kelly will back me up on this. :)

  4. Great article! I agree that some of the EXT card prices are absurdly low. Love the cost/profit chart, really put things in perspective.

  5. ChrisK, you’re 100% correct. A COUPLE of foils can be a wise investment, but look at the spread between almost every regular and foil version of cards right now, doran aside. It is stupid.

  6. I wouldn’t count on Elspeth or Tezz approaching a very high price-point. They have an artificial caps in place that is worse (for profits) than anything Ajani had to deal with from his promo.
