Aaaand that explains why my Porphyry Nodes and Amulet of Vigor were just bought.
The Cryptic Command increase is quite incredible.
Is it just me or are these buyouts and price jumps becoming more and more frequent??
Definitely becoming more frequent, I've been playing the game a long time...and this kind of buy-out/price spikes haven't happened this much. You have to remember way back when Legacy was still growing and (more) popular than it is now, cards were spiking and getting banned, expect this to happen as Modern develops further.
On that note, anyone care to jot down anything worth while? I think we can expect a price explosion on Living End and Splinter Twin by the end of this Pro Tour.
Aaaaaaand Teferi, Mage of Zhalfir is out of stock on TCGPlayer. Did this happen earlier to today or is it just because of Blue Moon being played at the pro tour? I doubt EDH is making a run on every copy...

I posted this on he EDH Gainers thread, Im assuming this has to be due to the PT and Blue Moon, I agree it just can't be from EDH. Yeah he's gone, promo versions are still available though, somewhat. Those will dry up too.
*EDIT* Does anyone know how much he was worth before the spike?

8 TS, 11 FTV. I must say I also don't see this trend lasting, as Blue Moon doesn't seem to be doing particularly amazing.

Hm, yeah copies are indeed drying up fast. No, it won't last, this is a terrible spec/buyout. It will be exactly what happened with Thrun, the last troll a while back, the price will come crashing down.

Yup, lol I suspect the same will happen with Teferi.
I've been running the Amulet for quite some time now in my casual Bant Polymorph deck so my Khalni Gardens and Halimar Depths untap as soon as they hit the field (as well as others, particularly the shocks) and could never for the life of me figure out why this card was so cheap for so long. Lands is the easiest way to abuse it. and nullifies any opponents blind obedience like cards. but like most sleeper cards it just waits for a home I suppose.
That seems like a bad investment. They are hyped up to $3 on expensive sites and can still be bad for under $2. It's a common with a couple printings, and wouldn't be worth much if it wasn't a couple weeks post-ban.

Thrun was a speculation target occuring in the wake of the the legend rule change. It wasn't so important for Modern per se as it was for Commander. Even though you only need one in commander, he became much more difficult deal with in that format and will likely rise slowly over time. The disparity between the regular and foil versions I think are quite telling.

Here's how many copies you need for a playset in Commander: 1
Here's how many copies you need for a playset in Modern: 1
I suspect people will have difficulty unloading these for a profit.

which version??
Edit: just saw that you said Shard version.
WUBRGPauper Battle BoxWUBRG ... and why I am not a fan of Wayne Reynolds' Illustrations.
Edit: well the FTV one which I have; yet the reg Time spiral seems to be about $30-35
That's quite shocking...

Teferi is supposedly in a deck called Blue Moon, but I'm still dumbfounded he hit $30. I picked up a few at $10 and a FtV for $13 in case that sticks.
Thoughts?

-Was not expecting every version of Blood Moon to go up.
- Teferi's new price is insane.
-Azusa's new price is insane.
- Living End/ Bloodghast/Primeval Titan/Storm pieces all on the rise.
