TCGplayer market is $181.73, only 12% above the $161.64 retail price. Twelve percent under market would be $159.92, which is below retail, so the first button may come back empty. A store that has this at retail costs less than either marketplace.

What these searches leave out
Proxies, lots, code cards and other-language printings are excluded, and results are Buy It Now from US sellers, sorted by price plus shipping. Listings under $90.00 are left out because at that price they are almost always a different item. “Recently sold” opens eBay’s own sold listings for the same search, auctions included: what copies sold for, on eBay’s site. This site records none of those prices. You can save either search on eBay to be emailed new matches.
The eBay buttons are affiliate links: if you buy after clicking, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Wrong card or junk results? Report a problem.
Check retail price and stock
The market price above is what resellers charge. If a store has this product it will usually cost less, so check before paying it. Each button opens that retailer’s own search for this product. This site does not track stock or restocks at any retailer; turn on the retailer’s own in-stock notification if its product page offers one.

Every active eBay listing matched to this product is compared against the TCGplayer market price (currently $181.73), shipping included. A listing only counts as a deal when it lands at least 12% below that baseline and its card, condition and variant match is rated at least 50% confident, more for deeper discounts (above 85% from 40% off, above 95% from 70% off). A card listing must also state Near Mint, because a card’s market price is a Near Mint price. Seller “was” prices are ignored. Nothing qualifies at the moment. The eBay scan runs every 3 hours.
