I pre-ordered one for 67 because lately it's so unusual to find these pre-cons for anywhere near MSRP (although lately even the Commander 2013 decks are bottoming out to under MSRP, except Mind Seize, which I've been seeing for MSRP, the rest I've seen as low as 15 bucks!). Now it's looking like that wasn't such a good deal after all as I could get it for about 55 bucks on ebay. 12 dollars more spent because I pre-ordered and it comes out and winds up going way down in price across the board. The value of the singles has plummeted as well. The Sword was going for 25 before release, now it's down to 14! Elspeth was at 17 pre-release, now it's down at 10. Still, I don't regret buying it pre-release, because you never know with these things how prices are going to look after release and I was just happy to get a set for less than MSRP at all.
I'm not surprised of the sinking price of the deck. I think it mostly has to do with the stores that ordered a ton of them and now can't get rid of them. They aren't that bad and they are constructed to be exactly what WOTC said they would be which is "in line with the current event decks". You wont find ridiculous power or worth in a standard event deck. This is perfect for new players in the modern format who can't afford to pay a ton to get in.
sleeves are crap, in 2 weeks and 2 tournaments, they are very damaged, i dont recommend it, are very beautifull and everybody tell me are very cool BUT quality its crap
i will put Dragon Shield (3 month and are perfect like new) or Pro-Matte of ultra-pro that give me better results (6 months and are good)
PD ... the deck its FUN and cheap to improve, i having some fun with this, im really enjoying playing, i love play black and white so im in my own with this deck
