I still have the four positions mentioned in the article (titan, devil, angel of resto and bonfire).

I might sell the titan very soon, next weekend maybe?

For the 3 others I’m ok waiting longer, even if it mean 6+ months. Nothing to fear from reprints and their prices is pretty low now.

The only thing that can make me sell is that, as mentioned, I’m running out of free time, so I may sell them so that I don’t have to think about it. But if was not in a different job position I would totally wait.

I also have some RTR/M14 Modern playable cards (some shock lands, RIP, Abrupt Decay, Scavenging Ooze, Mutavault) These were bought in September with redemption in mind. I should have sold them when their were higher earlier but I didn’t. For the same reason, I’m not in a rush to sell them at a lower price now.

I also have few copies of Hurkyl’s Recall, bought 2 weeks ago with a Quickflip in mind. I just saw the price was “low” and about to rebound with potential play in Modern but mostly a potential demand from Vintage if the new DE schedule attract more players. It was really not a Modern spec per say and I plan to sell that guy this week or the next.

Overall, my plan was to get out of every Modern position threaten by a potential reprint in MMA2015.

QQ: are you totally out of modern position right now? Or you plan to do it next week or so?

Thanks!
