Best time to sell Gideon

Economics forum

So a while back I acquired a foil promo Gideon, Ally of Zendikar. It's still a while out, but with amonkhet he rotates out and as such will lose value (i think). What do you guys think will be the best time to sell?

Since it's a foil, I don't thing the price drop will be as severe as with non-foils. It really depends on how much play he sees in other formats (which is some, but not a lot atm). If you're making a profit selling or trading now you can't complain. It also depends if you're investing in something else or need the money for irl stuff.

Now. The closer it gets to rotation, the less its value becomes.

DruneGrey he isn't? Isn't BFZ the oldest set in standard?

In which case, you still have a few months to sell it, though the price will probably gently fall as the pro tour hype fades.
