In reply to kelly. I have actually just been on fire lately, I miscalled Batterskull slightly but thats due to the fact that it will likely drop fairly heavily after stoneforge rotates. Consecrated Sphinx and Death Shadow have been the recent ones but my sickest to date have been Dark Depths (bought ~100 at.25-.50 and well you know the rest of the story.) and Knight of the Reliquary (bought/traded for ~200 when they were 2.00 or less). Next Call shot is in the works, feels pretty saucy but I expect Death Shadow to hit 3 before rotation so thats still going.

In reply to Mr.C. Not to tough like kelly said I deal with a multitude of dealers and ive already made my margins since they are now 1.00 everywhere so even if they just sit and never go up I am about 300$ up at the moment and still ahve ~200 copies for further growth.

moving 1k of a card is a pain in the ass, but by working with multiple large dealers, it's not that hard.

i'd like to state for the record that my team was MUCH hotter on Spellskite than I was. I'm losin' my touch!

So, how do you plan on moving a thousand copies?

Good work, sir, and the analysis is great. I was pretty skeptical of Death's Shadow, and as it stands I'm not sure the card's playability (and by extension its profit margin) is great enough to justify picking up so many copies, but it clearly has more potential that I gave it credit for. You were way out in front of this one.
The sickest call on NPH so far (and I think just about the entire QS team was ahead of the game on this) has been Spellskite, but Death's Shadow definitely has room to grow as well.
