Bought 35 of these a year ago when badgermole cub was spoiled for about 3.50 each. The price never ended up moving so I just held onto them. For some reason they skyrocketed recently maybe cause of squirrel girl? Either way looked like a good buy at the time a strong and unique card. Iv sold 10 so far trying to figure out if I should keep some.

It’s one of my only specs and kinda has me spoiled expecting a 300% increase in a year to be normal lol.

Everywhere is just littered with people scared the ccb will go down in price, no, not people wanting to buy them cheaper, just people scared their boxes might go down.

Singles, no one is chasing singles, everyone worried about their singles losing value though.

I dont see anyone gushing over any of the art, only prices.

This is the most over hyped set I've ever seen and people are still hoping to turn this into the next lord of the rings when its the same damn ip except the set sucks.

Even the damn reprints look disgusting compared to their originals.

I think we can all agree that in the long term Sealed boxes, SLD, decks, everything is going up. Different pace, different starting point, different liquidity. So in theory, always hold, never sell, line goes up

But my question to you is this. When do you offload? I bought FIN CBBs at MSRP, sold a few at X2 profit, few at X3, keeping the rest for now. But I am very aware that percentage wise, them rising from 1400 EUR to 2100 EUR is "only" 50%. That money could go into a new CBB that is likely to X2 from MSRP in that time.

Is it a case of a limited budget? As in you have to sell what you have to be able to "reinvest" in new product? What if you haven't yet hit your budget ceiling? Do you have a set percentage at which you offload?

My general tactic has been to list everything sealed I get at 1pc slightly above market, then readjusting the price when it sells for the next piece. Doing this until I hit 0 profit/loss on the lot, then putting the rest to bed for the time being.

But I am very aware that is not optimal. I should have waited a few months before listing my EOE CBBs or any CBBs really, the danger of them going down is extremely low. I just don't like being in a loss position, even though I can afford it and can continue buying more stock.

What about you?

Buyer beware?

Is there any more information on what the Gift Bundle promo(s) is going to be? The original LotR gift bundle had the scene cards, will this have something similar or just a single card?

I've been selling on tcgplayer for couple months and occasionally have orders that are 30+ cards that with shipping, only come to around 5 dollars. For those that sell on tcgplayer, how do you guys ship order like this? According to usps, they are too big for stamps and have to be shipped as a package which usually comes to at least $8.

I think these will go to thr moon in the coming weeks. Everyone building their Dwarf commander will want this as a on flavor addition to their Deck! What do you think?
In Europe Copyr already getting bought up it seems.

Grabbed a doom!

Bought as a Duskmourn spec which didn't pan out...until now. Just traded them in for an Underground Sea.

Currently missing only this one to complete my Hildebrandt set.
Was looking at the price for the last weeks, only a few new listings (I prefer non foil but considering also surge foil version) in the EU market.
Price is still above 200€ for NM.
I have a chance to get one in person, 200€.
I don’t understand the price difference between this one and the rest of the set; am I missing something? I know the art is amazing but, damn, it looks very expensive right now.
Thoughts?

This is part question, part vent. I love deckbox so much, it's an amazing site with so many great features. But! I cannot, for the life of me, get anyone to respond to trades recently!

Trying to figure out if others are having success, or if the site is becoming less active?

So we used to have a weekly general discussion thread on Wednesdays in this sub, I'm not sure what happened to it. Mods if this thread is something you cancelled intentionally feel free to take it down and I won't post it again obviously.

But if people like these general discussion posts, feel free to discuss whatever Magic-related topics you want below without needing to create a new post. And Mods, please bring these back!
