yes, this was very helpful. thanks!

All sets are definitely not created equal. Small sets have a much higher bar to clear for redemption. The $25 redemption fee is spread out over a smaller number of cards in small sets, so it’s harder to be a redeemer of small sets and turn a steady profit. For this reason, I now avoid speculating on any small set mythic rares that are junk or near junk. They have to be at least Standard playable.

For large sets, 0.4 tix seems to be a safe price to buy junk mythic rares at, as they eventually head to 0.6 tix or higher for redeemable sets. This is just based off of my experience.

Is that helpful? Does that answer your question?

We’ll be sure to give sell dates on any cards we’ve put in our buy recommendations, so don’t worry if you are holding any cards that have been recommended. We’ll be cleaning out the older recommendations in advance of Magic Orgins.

I’m sorry if I wasn’t clear, and rereading the text it was a little ambiguous. The message I wanted to transmit is that I think the majority of the gains on these cards have been made, and that there’s only some small upside left at this point.

I think the best time to be selling is over the next two months, but the absolute peak could very well be in October. However, there are good opportunities coming in Magic Origins, both in boosters and singles. This is why I think selling M14 mythics for tix will a good move prior to the release of Magic Origins in July, and then moving those tix into Magic Origins boosters/singles in August.
