Finance Update w/ Saffron Olive |
|
This week, the big finance news is Ultimate Masters. The entire set was spoiled this week and even considering the increased cost of a sealed box, the expected value is looking strong. As a result, box prices have increased about $20 over the past couple of days from $265 to $285. Even at $285, the set has enough value that you should get your money's worth opening a box, especially with the Ultimate Box Topper providing some free value.
Meanwhile in Modern, pretty much all of the important cards being reprinted in Ultimate Masters are trending down, losing somewhere between 5% and 15% of their value on the week. On the other hand, cards that dodged reprinting are increasing, with the biggest winner being Manamorphose which doubled in price this week to about $20, making it the most expensive common in the format. While prices of Ultimate Masters cards will continue to drop over the next month or two, if you're putting together new Modern decks, try to pick up the cards that aren't in Ultimate Masters soon. They could see an increase in price thanks to new demand generated by Ultimate Masters.
Finally in Standard things are mostly quiet with Niv-Mizzet, Parun being the big winner increasing 23% to about $5. We probably won't see many big changes until Ravnica Allegiance previews start the first of next year. If you want to get ahead of the game, consider picking up the cards you'll need to play Gruul, Rakdos, Azorius, Simic, and Orzhov this winter. Many are cheap, and the combination of the community being focused on Ultimate Masters and various Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales makes it a perfect time to get a head start on Ravnica Allegiance Standard.
