Value: Miscut Force of Will

Post by normalbrains » Tue Mar 28, 2006 8:14 am

how much do you reckon a miscut FOW would go for? It shows a red card on the top and the blue reaches the bottom (no black bottom border).

any opinions or comments are welcome.

Assuming the back is miscut the same way I'd say 30ish or so. I'd personally rate it MUCH higher if the back is centered.

You see, my reasoning is that all miscuts are far more worthy than their "normal" counterpart usually, for the obvious reason they're rarer and sought by misprint collectors.

However Force of Will's value as a normal card is clearly due to its immense playability, and therefore its non-tourney legal counterpart might not be that valuable in relative terms.

To make my point using an extreme example, I'm not so sure that a miscut Beta Black Lotus showing a second card both front and back (and therefore not tourney-legal) would fetch more than a regular Beta Black Lotus, since misprint collectors would seek it but players would refrain from bidding.

It'd be interesting to see other points of view on this, but if Pickle.69 recalls correctly that this FoW got $40 on Ebay last time, then that sort of confirms what I'm saying.

I think ebay is the easiest way to tell what something is worth.

I'm quite sure I've seen that exact same FoW or one miscut just as much with a red card on top a few years back ;-D
Funny if it's the same one :-)
Was it a card you bought to make profit? I can understand a price of $75 if you actually wanted it for yourself, but wouldn't bet my money on it being easy to sell for more :'-(
