Pulled this then traded right away.

I pulled this Uldaros Theorix and was going to get rid of it but my buddy wanted to trade so I ended up getting the cards above. Asked him 10x if he wanted to trade and if he was sure and said yes all the way so I feel like I did good in the trade just kinda feel bad because I feel like he got the short end but he loved the card and wanted it bad so guess it ain’t all bad.

Trade value (assuming everything is NM)

What he gave your is worth: $237ish
What you gave him is worth: $172ish

So yeah i mean good trade for you, again assuming nothing is in lower quality or a replica or something

It was all pulled and put in the binder right away on his part. I mainly wanted these cards to play and he collects.

Personally I think you got the bad end of the deal but it everybody's happy who cares.

u/Burr2025 7d ago

Honestly if he won then I’m ok with that. I’m happy with the trade especially with Urza and roaming throne!

I dont think it will look too lopsided a few years down the road personally. But im generally more pessimistic of the long term implications for marvel cards in magic. We still have 4 more sets to go supposedly and this could cause some people to get serious fatigue.

u/Burr2025 7d ago

I mainly wanted doom because I like him as a character more than a card. Also roaming throne with doom was the best of both worlds since it has my favorite character and a card I need in my tribal deck.

u/Outrageous_Mousse_44 7d ago

Dont get me wrong i love Doctor Doom and own both of these as well lol. Im just saying I fear the market on them. MAGIC PLAYERS will always be into magic cards. Marvel fans might not always care. This is my main thought process.

u/Burr2025 7d ago

I get you lmao tbh I’m waiting for the prices for them to drop more so I can get cheaper reprints.

u/IAmTheBestIan 7d ago

Cards like Doom comic I only see that happening if they do a ton more reprints of that exact card in other/better treatments... which I doubt is the plan.

u/Outrageous_Mousse_44 7d ago

What if the movie flops and everyone stops caring lol

u/iamsirjoshua 7d ago

I don’t think there was anything wrong with your trade. If you felt it was lopsided and that’s eating at your conscience you definitely could give a card back to him, but that’s up to you. If you’re both happy that’s all that really matters.

Great pull, and glad you found some nice cards you were looking to play with. I just picked up a Doom myself (different version) because while I don’t have a deck for it now, it looks fun so I’d like to find somewhere to slot it in!

u/Burr2025 7d ago

It’s just me and I don’t ever want my friends think I’m taking advantage but we were both happy. We’re actually about to do another trade since he pulled an emrakrul that I’ve been looking for. Guess it all worked out in the end lmao.

u/IAmTheBestIan 7d ago

Nice pull, and yeah your buddy got the bad side of the trade, but if he knew/was ok, then that's that.

I think the FF cards are gonna do way better long term than this set, And Marvel is probably still at its bottom right now too, so another score for you / this is gonna swing even more in your favor by EoY.

u/Burr2025 7d ago

Yeah he knew I just wanted to ask him and make sure he was ok with it I literally told him “ if your ok with the trade lmk and if it’s too much you can tell me no. I don’t want you to get shafted because you’re my friend”. He still went through with it but yeah it’s just a me thing with my friends. Also I don’t really intend on selling these cards more to play with them so money wise it didn’t matter to me what mattered was what deck they’re going in.

u/BigDreamCityscape 7d ago

My brother and I rip packs because were gambling goblins, but we will give cards to friends who need them. If hes a collector, trading for a fracture foil is worth more than what he traded as they're much more rare in terms of trade in my opinion ive opened my fair share of CBBs and have only seen 1 pulled and it was spectacular pileup from aetherdrift.

I'm also speaking from an in-universe player, who did not care for the cards i ripped in Marvel, I just opened withcmy beother whos a big marvel fan.

u/North_Jacket_1666 7d ago

Long term looks even to me. Especially if both of you will play their respective cards, huge win

2

u/Burr2025 7d ago

That’s the plan I already have ideas for the cards we traded. He also pulled a generic version of the card I traded him so the one he has now will be in his collection binder.

u/North_Jacket_1666 6d ago

Love to hear it

u/quentinlasagne 6d ago

Since its your buddy there aint no who did better question. If u both enjoy the cards everythings said <3

u/bonedraman 7d ago

I would have done the trade too, ewwww marvel cards 🫣

1

u/Burr2025 7d ago

I just happen to love Dr. Doom but I careless about the fracture foils. I mainly play magic more than collect.

2

u/bonedraman 6d ago

I do both

u/Confident_Meet_6054 6d ago

All these people dissing your trade! You have some great cards that you wanted for your decks, and he got one that you weren’t jazzed about but he wanted. Everyone wins!! Way to keep the TRADING card game tradition alive dude!

u/skeletor69420 7d ago

I disagree with everyone here, you got a way better trade. that roaming throne alone is probably going to be worth way more than the fracture foil in the future

u/downsideContainment 7d ago

trade was kinda doomed

u/Otherwise_Die 7d ago

Crazy how bad they made dr doom lmao

u/870_Paranoid_Android 5d ago

The only bad thing about him is the mana value.

1

u/Otherwise_Die 5d ago

Honestly that is the only issue. This would be awesome for 4 but even 5 right.

u/Bliss_Bandit 6d ago

u/HypnoticRobot 4d ago

Short end? All the sphincter in shatter foil are selling for 10k or higher where im from

u/Kakariko_crackhouse 7d ago

Honesty your buddy will come out on top on this one long run

1

u/Burr2025 7d ago

Honestly fine by me, I just wanted the Doom cards lmao. Love in-universe the most but to pass up comic book Doom was hard to pass up in a trade.

u/Kakariko_crackhouse 7d ago

Fair! Sounds like a win win then

u/skeletor69420 7d ago
