The other day when I picked up the {Gaea's Cradle}, it was because the guy was trading in 2. Well, it has yet to move, and I currently have a 20% off singles available, so I now have the opportunity to acquire the 2nd Cradle for $120. It is inbelievably temping... Should I go for it?

Lowest buy it now on eBay is 125, you should try your luck on some of the bids for around ~110

I wouldn't unless it is mint, on eBay I paid 107$ for mine and it's slightly played. When I was looking I remember buy it now prices were above 120$ though. Not a card I ever see going down in price 😉

InfinitiveDivinity

It's actually in really good condition, I would rate it at near mint to be honest, the other one I acquired was lightly played because it had a little white showing on the edges. I can't seem to find an issue with this one.

InfinitiveDivinity

I bought it. No regrets! 2 down, 2 to go! Legacy Elves, one day you will be mine!

wow {savor the moment} foil has such a range of prices. 5 dollars on scg (sold out), about 15 dollars on ebay, and 35 dollars on tcg player(only 1 seller selling 2). what did you value urs at with such a range?

He chose all of the cards for the trade and deckbox had it at $33, so we went with that value!

Edit: oh yeah he added a {spirit of the night} to even the trade, it ended up about 160 both ways using deckbox prices.

still, awesome trade. traded away some fringe cards and a {sensei's diving top} for a {karakas}. well done. id say it sucks for the other guy but he obviously had internet access so its his fault.

He's a big time competent trader so if he's fine with it, I don't mindn
