So I've tried trading the dreaded thing but not a soul wants to trade for what tcg says it's worth so what can i do? I'm never going to pkay it period. I hate the colors i hate the deck she would go in. Do i sell? Where can i get my money's worth?

As in card shop? Don't they knock like 50 percent?

I wouldn't sell it to a dealer. There'll be someone who eventually wants to trade for it, if you're desperate you can sell it.. But you'll probably get $30-35 from a sale.

Post in trader forum then try ebay, tcgplaeyer, or sell to a dealer...

I would try to trade at a discount before selling to a dealer for half. js

Yeah dealer's take off a lot of the value, it's called being a business lol. But they're guaranteed to buy it, and since you seem to really want to offload it instead of waiting, it's your best bet.

ebay is the way to go.

ive been trying to rid myself of a foil Elspeth, Sun's Champion and nobody wants it because they dont want to trade so much for it.

@Vampire Army: Thank you for understanding!!! I feel like I was the only one who felt that way about simic!

CommanderOfBolas i dislike blue more than green...but.this card...It's control...bane of my entire mtg life

Didn't mean to keep it to play. Meant it could rise in value. Do to see it losing value. Is there a rush to sell? It's an edh card and foil means it retains value.

I know it'll drop by a ton the minute bant control stops being good in standard. I'm not sure if she will ever see play past that

Don't forget BUG VampireArmy. BUG is getting a lot of support in Kahns.

That's true but i don't see it sticking at the 45 dollar tag. Im just gonna offer to trade it at a 30 dollar worth

DrFunk27 says... #19

You do realize it's played heavily in EDH and as a foil it will hold it's price? It would be foolish to sell or trade it now.

I wouldn't anyways unless the offer was sweet enough. I've been burned far too many times

Dealers will reaaaaaally screw you. Wait. It's a very cool card, dude. Somebody will want it and trade you fairly for it!

Like. I could honestly use one. Not one to whore out my binder...but oh well.

August 3, 2014 7:56 p.m.

I love blue, I just hate green with a passion. the only deck I play with green is punishing jund in legacy, but right now I cant afford goyf, so I just have green for DRS and Abrupt Decay

I think you should sell if you don't want to play with it. Ebay, or just trading it off. As for it being a Commander card... it's not really a commander card, maybe in French but not in normal commander.
