So Command Tower jumped from about $00.18 to about $18.00...what happened? According to Tappedout it was literally overnight too

The Commander's Arsenal Command Tower is $17.88. Probably because it was the only land (I think) released in the set. Not to mention not as much Commander's Arsenal was opened as much as the original Commander set.The Judge Promo is $16, the C13 is $1.49, and the original Command Tower is $2.25.
So as you can see, it's only 2 printings, and they're the harder to find printings.

Also, the CA is the only printing with different art. Some players go for that.

Yes...I did not realize at the time I put this up that it was that long ago...then I was still curious so it was a belated question, but still something I wondered about

IIRC TappedOut uses TCGPlayer's prices. As you can see here, it looks like TCGPlayer was sold out for a while or updating their system. This would cause it to be $0 one day, and $17 the next.
I could be wrong, though. Epochalyptik will have to clarify.

Thank you sir (or mad'am) that clarifies quite a bit

The commander edition ones were like a dollar, and there was a promo that sells for about $20. Maybe the source for the card was shifted between those two?
