So I need to pick up 3 more copies of Green Sun's Zenith for my Legacy deck. I think the best deal I can find for them currently is about $8 apiece. The card seems to see minimal Standard play, and is banned in Modern. The format where it sees most of its play is Legacy.
My question is, should I buy them now, or wait for Scars block to rotate from Standard? I know most cards usually take a price hit when rotating, but since this card is mainly supported by Legacy, will it drop at all?
Don't think it will drop much if at all. It has been quite stable in price since release if I recall correctly. As you say its main avenue is legacy, not standard.
The things is, I only need 3 since I have one that I use for EDH. Would I be better off getting a playset and just trading one?
get a playset and keep the extra in your EDH.
If you only need 3 in a legacy deck, then yeah, trade one.

well, you said you could by them singly for $8... so... 3 x $8 = $24...
If a playset is $24... seems like a pretty cool deal to me.

I'm not seeing these playsets for $24 on ebay. $30 + shipping seems like the cheapest.
EDIT: Found 3x for $21.25 shipped. Seems like the one to get.

That's because you're looking at BIN prices...
You need to bid to get better prices dude.
