I pulled this baby in a pack with a foil Palisade Giant . It was a good day. I don't play any standard really, so I'm looking for anything that fits my trade binder. top of the list would be Cavern of Souls . Let me know!

I'm posting to officially state that, after considering the possibility of actually owning a Cavern of Souls , I am now (almost) unable to part with AoS for anything else. If you have a Cavern PLEASE LET ME KNOW! I suppose I might (maybe) trade for some of the other lands on my list (or a lot of cheaper cards), but my heart is set on Cavern of Souls .

I have one and I am interested but you would have to throw in more cards.

Starcity Games - Angel of Serenity : 24.99 ; Cavern of Souls : 19.99. CoS = 80% value.

Coolstuffinc - AoS: 25.99 ; CoS: 23.99. CoS = 92% value.

Amazon.com - AoS: 21.98 (or as low as 14.50) ; CoS: 18.95 (or as low as 12.00) CoS = 86% (83%) value.

mtgfanatic - AoS: 22.99 ; CoS: 22.99 = CoS 100% value.

Trollandtoad: AoS: 27.99 ; CoS: 23.49 = CoS 84% value.

In only one of these cases are Angel of Serenity and Cavern of Souls valued equally, with an average of $2.83/12.5% difference in price. With that in mind, your offer is really not very strong. I understand that retail valuations are very hard to convert into actual value (I could not, for example, go to a game store and swap these cards one-for-one), but that is what trading is for, an exchange of equally desirable and equally valued cards among peers, without the markup/markdown needed to cover operating expenses.

Economically speaking, your demand for Angel of Serenity may be lower than mine is for Cavern of Souls . If that is the case, I would think that the $2.83/12.5% difference would account for that discrepancy, without the need to add weight to my side of the offer. If not, then I will wait for a trader whose demands more accurately align with my own.

Ok, Valentine35, I'll take a look at if what you have interests me (for Steam Vents ). I'd love to trade both the angel and vents at once to save on shipping costs.
