I personally would go for the Ulamog. Promo Spaghetti Monster looks meh imo and Ulamog sees play in edh. Although I wouldn't be surprised if Emrakul ends up having a higher price ceiling. Promo Emrakul is about $2 less on TCG atm.

Re: v3.8 Card Pages, Market, Decklist Printing (40 replies, posted in Announcements)
Maybe I'm alone here, but I'm actually sad to see this go.
I too am a little sad to see the whiteboxes (I think that's what they're called. Not into web dev) go since 95% of my activity on here is on a desktop, but for the 5% that's on mobile this is a really good change.
By the way, I want to make the collection controls in place editable at some point soon too, so you don't have to open the panel if you want to edit them. I need to try out some things first....
When this happens I will be 100% happy again.

Topic: Trade opportunity value (1 replies, posted in Site Discussion)
As it is right now, the value of the cards that a person needs from your tradelist is based on the value of the cards you have, not the value of the cards they want. Among other situations, this means that if I have a foil on my tradelist and they have a non-foil on their wishlist the foil value will get used, artificially inflating the value of the cards they need from me.
This will happen with any other printing that is more valuable than the cheapest copy: Foil, most promos, sometimes older printings (Alpha, Beta, Legends etc), FTV and probably some others. I'm not sure exactly the best way to go about calculating total trade value, but for sure this doesn't seem like the correct way.
See attached image.

Re: how to? (3 replies, posted in Decks and Deckbuilding)
"Worth" has a couple different meanings: Trade value and Market value. How much you could trade the deck for and how much you could sell the deck for.
Trade value is easy to explain. That is the number shown in the deck page. This is the total of the average price of each of the cards in the deck. Take your sliver deck as an example. Underneath the name of the deck it says "Approximate deck value: $371.71." That is the trade value of the deck.
Market value is more difficult to figure out. Generally, take the cheapest copy of all of the cards individually on TCGplayer.com and cut that by 10 or 20 percent.

Re: how to? (3 replies, posted in Decks and Deckbuilding)
Decks don't have specific, actual cards in them. They are just a list of cards. Does that make sense?
That being said I believe the Deckbox team has something that they are working on which will make it so you can add specific, real cards to decks.

Re: BTR: joecat (7 replies, posted in Site Discussion)
I had a user leave neutral feedback for me after I cancelled a card order because it was under the dollar limit I had specified. It was annoying, but I think the solution is to make it understood that neutral feedback shouldn't necessarily represent a knock against a trader, especially if it's not accompanied by an explanation.
This. Neutral feedback doesn't affect your positive trade percentage. I am personally annoyed at the one neutral rating that I received (it was completely unwarranted, but that's a whole unrelated can of worms), but it doesn't affect smooth trading for me at all. No one has ever even asked about it.

Alpha Tropical Island - Restored by Eric Klug - $1400 obo - pics
2 SP Foil 7th Storm Crow - $300 obo - SP due to some scuffing on the foil layer and a little bit of corner wear on the back
Bunches of other things, but these are the biggest. Through the DB market only ofc.

Re: New TCGplayer layout - poll (5 replies, posted in General Discussion)
I wholeheartedly agree with Jack.
- Set names are too small. I often am looking for a specific printing and it is now harder to find the right one.
- Waaaay too much white space everywhere
- Pages are unnecessarily longer because of the extra white space
- Information is harder to find in general. # of sellers is nice to see, now it's at the bottom.
- Imo, the # available should be larger font, but that's not a big deal.
- On individual card pages:
- the prices were moved to the bottom. This seems counter-intuitive for a market site. Below the price history and "customers also bought" line?! Really?
- More white space
- Optimizer:
- Too much white space
- Known issue(s)

Re: Adding cards from decks to inventory (6 replies, posted in Site Discussion)
Any chance that my suggestion will be considered?
I could see it as being useful especially for new members, but it would probably be pretty low priority if it were to be considered. As far as I know it's just one guy, Sebi, that does the work for the site.

Re: Adding cards from decks to inventory (6 replies, posted in Site Discussion)
Your best option for now would be the "print" option. On the deck page, under Tools, click Print. This will open a new tab with an easily copy-able list. Copy this list. In a separate tab browse to your Inventory. Select Import > Card List. You will probably want to set the default Set to blank. Paste the list and click Import. Repeat for each deck. Might as well leave the Inventory tab open and browse your decks in another.
~70 decks will still take a while, but it's significantly faster than typing everything again!

Re: Price issues (389 replies, posted in Site Discussion)
Someone has now listed one for sale at $100 on deckbox, so they are definitely no longer worth $400. XD Still the $1.50 price remains that Sebi had reverted it to, now there's a huge split between lowest for sale and "mid price".
That was my copy. It just sold tonight on TCG for $150.

Re: Condition options suggestion (15 replies, posted in Site Discussion)
One of the things I feel these guides lack is that there is a pretty big gap between NM and LP. Like, their LP example has white border wear all around it, while their NM has none. What if there's only a single tiny white mark on a card? LP or NM? It's difficult to say.
There isn't actually any gap. LP is anything less than NM, but better than MP. If a 1-100 scale were used it would look something like:
100 - Mint
95-99 NM
75-95 LP
50-75 MP
20-50 HP
1-20 Damaged
That's where I would use the "EX" label, if such a one existed (although it looks like BlackBorder says that LP and EX are the same?!)
Excellent and Lightly Played do describe the same condition. There are plenty of conditions that overlap like that. Fine, Good, Very Good and others all overlap somewhere.

Re: just a deckbuilder idea. (3 replies, posted in Site Discussion)
I remember a request from a while back about something similar. The idea was something like a page where you could view a list of other member's decks sorted by the number of cards you own from that deck.
