I am just curious what you guys would pay for one, like from ebay or something. (note: I do not have one for trade or sale)

Well korean is the most expensive because of shipping and how difficult it is to get to the U.S. I don't agree with that philosophy miracleHat

Whatever an English card's or box's value is, multiply that by 1.2 and that'll give you more accurate interpretation of what the Korean counterpart is.

I agree. I did look on Ebay, and they are selling for 190 a box. The reason for my original post is that I just won one on Ebay. I paid $91 bucks shipped :)

Now you just have to worry about opening good cards; there aren't many in Gatecrash aside from shock-lands.

Not a bad idea, really. If/When shock-lands continuously grow in value over the next X years, people will be looking for them anywhere.

Sorry, i am a bit biased (prefer german, then japanese). ANYWAYS; since it is gatecrash, i wouldn't pay that much more. also, the only cards that are worth value are the shocklands. from what i have been seeing, Domri Rade doesn't play in modern. same with obzedat. That leaves us with shocklands, and it helps that there are 5 of them. Lets say that you get three shocklands, Let's just say that they are worth +$5. that means that the most expensive card in the set is $18. Might as well get a box of rtr.

Even if there aren't many high value cards, box's sealed prices will always go up over time. Simply due to the decreasing amount of the product. There's always EDH as well, so the cards don't need to be modern staples.

Uh, well the cheapest one on Ebay is $190, if that helps.
I wouldn't buy one, though, so there's that.
