Should I sell my Goyfs now?

I am currently playing Little Kid Junk, except I own Tarmogoyf for my Junk deck as well. With goyf being printed in MM2, I am wondering if I should sell them now? How much do you guys think he will drop?

Tarmogoyf will go up in price no matter how many times it's reprinted. Keep them.

Thanks for all the input guys. They are MM1 printing. I am definitely leaning towards keeping them.

They won't go up now, and they might drop for a little bit, but over time, everyone who has them wants to keep them, and most people who want to play Modern need them, the price will eventually go up as renewed interest does. If Goyf is in the #1 deck again I could see it hitting 250 to 300, and whenever they print strong green cards, you may see a small bump.
As for before MM15, I think they will go through a roller coaster as some speculators try to rid themselves of what they have in fear of a drop, while other speculators pick them up when the price drops. Their is a slight chance that one side of that will completely dominate the other, which in the case of a seller domination, would mean a crash in value, or a buyer domination which would mean very little price fluctuation and possibly even a jump in price.

I really would. They are still gonna be worth a bomb either way, it's going to take a LOT of them to bring the price down.

Keep them. Not enough will hit the market from MM2 for the price to change one bit.

They're currently dropping. I think it'll hit 100$ and then rise again.

according to mtgstocks.com the FUT printing has dropped from $220 to $207 and the MMA printing has dropped from $210 to $200 from the day they were spoiled to today. i believe they get their info from TCGplayer.

The future sight one actually rose from $200 to $220 only within the last few weeks. It wasn't that high for long. Just a momentary blip.

yep, i suppose i should have pointed that out for full disclosure but i hadn't actually noticed. to be honest i wrote down their current prices on my calender the minute i saw them spoiled, just to observe throughout this year what happens to them.
i do think they might dip some, but i'm pretty sure that there will always be enough speculators that will keep buying them up and never let the price dip too far. at least not in a limited release set at mythic rare.

I'm seeing MMA Tarmogoyf going for 160 currently. I think FS is atrocious so I don't pay attention to its prices but I mean when MMA was being opened u could find them for 100$ without much effort and this is it's 3rd printing? (Someone said it was in timeshifted as well??? Maybe 4th print)

This is its third printing. Everywhere I've checked - magicmadhouse, starcity, ebay, magiccardmarket has it for $200.

Huh. Well that's certainly not the case for the UK or major retailers like starcity.

The price will drop. How much, not sure. I'll believe it'll be 100-150 range. So I'd say now is a good time as any to sell.

I honestly don't know.
Considering they went up in price last time, I haven't got a clue what's going to happen this time.
