Today I was going through my collection, just throwing together a casual Simic deck, and I came across a Portal printing of Storm Crow . Am I rich or what?

According to eBay its worth approximately 29 cents. What blasphemy!

In all serious, how is the average price of a foil Storm Crow only 38 cents? Seems like it should be worth a lot more than that.

Because it's a joke and not actually a good card.

I know its not a good card. But it seems like there would be enough demand for it, as a joke/prank/nostalgia/whatever you want to call it for it to be worth more than that.

why they ever thought it would be a good idea to reprint it is beyond me

That's like saying there's an actual demand for Chuck Norris in the Barrens.

The foil should be worth more even though it is a joke. Foil Steamflogger Boss goes for $4.50 and that card should have a silver border. :/

It's not hard to see why Steamflogger Boss is far more valuable than a lowly Storm Crow :

First, Steamflogger is a future border, automatically giving it more collection value. Second, it's a rare (and a foil rare at that). Third, it's a joke card that is actually bad at doing something, versus being bad because it does nothing at all (e.g. Storm Crow ). Lastly, Storm Crow has been reprinted, like, 9 times and Steamflogger was a one-set card.

am I the only one here who thinks Storm Crow should be a bit more valuable than .25 because it is the big joke of magic?

If it was printed only once then yes, but it hasn't. =\

Not as good as my entire binder full of Charging Badger .

Charging Badger is almost as good as a 0/1 Deathtouch.

Not as rich as whoever is buying all the Storm Crow from SCG. They're constantly sold out of all printings but Alliances.
