You opened 8 packs though. That isn't a sample size large enough to be relevant in any way. I've opened 6 packs Thassa, Medomain, A duel land, and 3 bulk rares plus a rare foil. If I based my opinion of the set off my small sample size I'd saying exactly the opposite.
Since the introduction of Mythic Rares the value consolidation in each set makes your bad runs look really bad and your good packs look amazing.
tl;dr - basic stats.
Yeah you're right. I remember opening 5 Jaces and 5 angel of serenity out of rtr. That was a total of around 50 prize support packs over 4 months. These theros pulls were just really bad. I won the prerelease and pulled elspeth, thoughtseize and 3 lions so i guess i should keep that in mind lol.
This is a horrible set to open packs in though. I won some packs then bought a few more since i never buy packs and wanted a couple cards for edh. Pulled 8 bulk rares and a swan song which will be a bulk rare before long. Shoulda picked RtR as my prize support.
If you have the money to buy boxes and sit on them then buy all their rtr and 1 dragon maze and 1 gatecrash. I bet in a few years a box of each in rtr will fetch a high price. Like an auction for one of each. People love rtr draft
I see Mox Diamond and Intuition going up faster than this but it is a heavily played land on the Reserved List .
I have 2 intuition im not using and i thought about buylisting them for $20 each but it seems like this card could shoot up since its hard to find, old, played in show and tell builds and hasnt gone up in awhile. What do you guys think?
So as I was saying .. 10$ is the usual price. Its like anything else, never buy one at a time or you will pay the inflated price. Always buy small lot to save on quantity. Then resell what you don't need.
well i assumed we were talking about individual prices. but yeah buying in lots is the best idea but i def dont have that kinda disposable cash. the most i could buy is 1-2 here or there. i only have 8 full-art foil zendikar lands but i'm always trying to get more. oh and what do you type in to search? i always get the crappiest auctions and overpriced ones. i never even saw those you listed.
is there enough value in the set to open boxes at $90-100? my local shop has 2 and i'd like to buy them and hold onto them but even though i don't need anything in the set, i will have to restrain myself from opening them. rtr is such a fun and awesome set. i really wanna buy both boxes before they get gone
You should not pay more than 8$ a piece for Zendikar FOIL. 10$ is not a deal, you can get one for this price everyday on eBay.
I suggest you do not buy unless they are NM or better.
Foil cards tend to be "cloudy" or have more scratches on the surface. Be careful to buy those cheaper.
im pretty sure you don't know what they are worth nowdays. you cannot get them "everyday" for $10. i too was surprised at how much they go for now. maybe like 1 or 2, the less popular art you can get for $10 but most of them are much more. but the most popular ones you will be lucky to get them for $15-18. to the op i say buy/trade in at anything around $15 especially if it is the popular/more expensive ones. these are gonna go up over time. maybe hit unhinged foil land prices
i bought so many of those original commander decks at walmart for $10 and then flipped them into duals and legacy staples. do you guys think that baleful strix and shardless agent will be in the new commander decks? they have a big demand. i have 4 agents and i was thinking about getting rid of them. $100-120 is a lot to have in 4 uncommons that i could use elsewhere but dont wanna trade them and then they never get reprinted.
oh ok cool thanks. if you type it in the search bar from the homepage it doesn't have any of the prices. but yeah getting foil zendikar lands is a good idea if you can get the cheap enough. i picked up around 8 not too long ago cause i love the look of them and wanted them for my edh deck.

well if you need deltas for your deck get those. who cares if you lose money in the long run if you get to play your deck.
