I play multiple formats but because you love a format that I don't you wanna act like you are better than me. You aren't and if I want to make money from that format that is my business. You don't have to give me any info. You also don't have to write articles about making money on Magic but you do.

Listen "angry magic guy". I may seem like the usual magic player to you but I won't sit behind my computer and talk shit because you want to be an ass. First of all I pay for content on a Magic financial sight (which I believe you write articles on) so ya I can make money off of something, anything fo that matter that I want. I don't love Yugioh actually I hate it but I make money of it. So you can kiss my ass. Now back to the beginning of what I said you can act bad ass and talk shit behind a computer I'm in Spartanburg SC. Let me know when you are around I'll come have a conversation with you about what I can and can't do in PERSON. See how angry and bad ass you act then.

Something like Power Artifact sells for around 25 right now. Do you think it could still go up in value, or do you imagine that this is what it's going to be.

In reply to Wade. There absolutely is a reason you shouldn't make money from everyone else's love of EDH: you don't want to put the work in. You don't want to play the format, and you don't know what cards people play with which means you haven't done even the most cursory research into the format. You can make money off of it, but not if you just sit on your ass and wait for someone to tell you what to do.

I play the game a lot but I do not have any desire to play EDH because I am unlucky as it is and hoping for 1s over and over is a horrible type imo. I simply don't like the format but there is no reason I shouldn't make some money from everyone else's love for it.

In reply to Wade. So play some EDH since this is a game instead of only treating it as an investment?

I think the problem is if you have never played it at all it is hard to really know what cards they play with. I mean ya some obvious choices exist but beyond that??? So picking up bulk is fine but if you are going to invest in foils that is more difficult.

In reply to Painter's Servant. trading $0.10 rares to EDH players at $1 was the old awesome secret to EDH trading/ The new secret? Most of those $0.10 cards are now worth $2-$3!

Nice article!

You hit on a great point at the end there. I make a lot of money by trading for "bulk" rares with insane abilities then trading them to the EDH crown as "Dollar" rares. May not seem like much but taking a 10 cent card and turning it in to a $1 card is a 1000% return.
