I have been noticing that the new Thoughtseize that was printed in theros recently has been slowly creeping itself back up to about $20 on tcgplayer. Will it go up higher than that? I'm trying to decide if I should pick a few up or wait until theros is about to rotate out and see if it dips in price before I start buying some.

It'll probably dip about a dollar or two at most, then slowly climb to 35-ish.

I think the Thoughtseize-Train is gone. I bought my 12 copies when it was 15$-ish. It's never going to come down again. Buy your playset now, it will creep back to 40, 50$ in a few years.

Yeah I picked up another playset in a massive trade the other day. Its a good card to have a bunch of the binder either as trade bait, or to hold on to for financial growth. Its not going to spike overnight like Goblin Rabblemaster but its a very good long term investment.

Raven... $5 profit...or each? Haha. Because if it was $5 each you got screwed

I think what Raven means is that in total after dropping the 3 Seizes he resulted in a net-gain of about $5 from his original investment lol

Thoughtseize is the shit, love the card.
I think since Theros I've cycled thru about 9 of them though... lol at 20$ each they are still an incredible value.

Update thoughtsieze is at 29.99 ea the question is if your not using it, is it time to sell or trade it? I got mine at 14.99 and I'm not using em except 1 in EDH.

on another note, should I keep my foil? Will it go up even higher in value?

Scytec, for your information, I gained 5$ profit :D
Lol, I can see them rise now. It's a little sad, that I have sold them. But after keeping them for like a half year without rising, I thought I would be better of selling them...

Thoughtseize Long term HOLD HOLD HOLD!
This is a money card plain and simple. It will hover around the $20-$30 range while in Standard, maybe dip to $17ish close to rotation.
Post-Rotation I can see the Theros version of this hitting $50 easily, foiled over $100.
Thoughtseize is eternal, it will always be played, always be in demand and always worth money.

Playable in modern and legacy. Not going to dip a ton at rotation.
