Is it a good idea to buy Snapcaster Mage now? I'm struggling to trade for them and their price only looks like it's going up, especially with Deathrite Shaman out of the picture.
yeah buy them now. im buying my 4th snapcaster tomrw. I see them being at dark confidant status in the future, price wise, and with modern season on the rise, theyre only going up.

Buy now! They are just so darn good. And very unlikely they will ever see a reprint. Definitely pick up a set before the PT

Thanks for the advice guys. I just impulse bought 6 of the buggers, so I now have 7. Hopefully, if (and by that I mean when) they spike, I'll be able to turn a bit of a profit.

Id say its a pretty safe bet that youll be able to make some profit. I wish i have collected snapcasters, LotV and geists while they were every where. I went thru so many copies of all those cards while they were in standard.

I think that is a good call TitansFTW, I am going to pick up 2 extras on pay day this week. (I already have a playset). They are too good to not rise.

Makes sense. I'm in the UK, and unfortunately for me, shipping from the USA is very expensive, so I decided to buy mine all from one buyer on tcgplayer. None of the sub-20 offers had enough stock for me to buy.

I think they will hit 50 before too long. It is right around the time where Innistrad should gain big where it is going to.
