Topic: W: 4 Mutavault H: See post

I'm looking for a playset of Mutavaults. I'm willing to trade anything on my tradelist for them, however, if you want eternal cards, I'd only be willing to do so for the Mutavaults at half value (i.e if you wanted a TNN I would ask for two Mutavaults). If anyone is interested feel free to send me a trade. Thanks!

just a note on your post. 

Mutavaults are eternal cards, they were seeing play in modern and legacy some before the reprint.  While its true that vaults will drop some after rotation.  2/1 value on modern, legacy is not a fair asking price.

during the entire ravnica block almost, it was hovering between $30 and $35 before reprint.  It will stabilize at about that price if not higher at some point after rotation, especially with the high interest in modern atm.

I do understand that. However, only a few modern and legacy decks run them. After rotation, the market will be flooded with copies. I feel that it will be a 15-20 card after rotation. So if someone is trying to get into Modern/Legacy from standard I think that trading a few mutavaults for a cryptic or snap or fetchland would be pretty attractive.

Eh, not flooded... core sets don't get opened as much as block sets and the are only in rotation for a year instead of the full 2 years like blocks...

long term mutavault will stay right about where it's at now or a little less.

Re: W: 4 Mutavault H: See post

I would normally agree about the market not being flooded with a core set card, however Mutavault is a special exception. I don't play standard, but from what I see at FNMs and on Star City, almost every deck worth playing in standard has them.

Re: W: 4 Mutavault H: See post

well right hence the current price, and why it's still rising...  it will drop after rotation for sure, but to assume long term it wont' rebound is silly... if you want to trade 2/1 mutavaults you should wait until then

I wouldn't recommend anyone trading down that hard on a card that will see play until the last day it's in standard and price memory will keep it at some decent measure of it's current value because people know their "good" cards will want to hang onto them.

but there are suckers born every minute.
