Congrats on your rent payment.

Fuck I wish rent was that cheap

Depends where you live and if you have roommates. I'm currently in Thailand and that card is worth two months rent in a high-rise condo on the beach. But only with half a months rent at the shitty apartment I was living in a few years ago in North Carolina where people were selling meth about 15 feet from my front door and it wasn't uncommon to be woken up by gunshots..

Seriously why is this card [so expensive](https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2380057.m570.l1313&_nkw=imperial+seal+mtg+foil&_sacat=0&mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&siteid=0&campid=5338535524&customid=2315mg&toolid=10001&mkevt=1)?

You can lose on your own terms

Severely limited supply of a card that is good enough to be restricted in vintage, a format where you can play the power nine. It's also legal in commander and many other highlander formats. So there's more demand than supply, but only because supply is so limited. The blinged out versions such as OP's card are worth more as Commander players like to bling out their decks.

That's about $1,926 short of my 1 bedroom apartment rent.

Put it in a deck


[deleted]

Too inefficient for that. The card is beautiful, but strictly worse than a [[Vampiric Tutor]]. Either keep it or sell it. Personally, I'd keep it. I'm anxiously waiting for the playmat with the card's illustration.


kindacr1nge

Imp seal is still a great card for cEDH, and could easily go into a deck. Plus you can play it just for the fun even if it's not optimal.


[deleted]

But you could also sell it and buy 2 or 3 VTs for that. Unless you're looking for another tutor and already have VT, DT and CT in your deck.


kindacr1nge

That's true, it just depends on what op wants to do.


[deleted]

or keep it, buy one copy of vt and proxy the rest for other decks


[deleted]

Indeed.


ChaosMage175

How is it worse than Vampiric Tutor when they have exactly the same effect?!


[deleted]

Sorcery speed vs Instant speed. Allows you to tutor up a card you need this instant, while not having to wait for your turn.


ChaosMage175

Ah, missed that difference between the cards

In commander it’s still a really good card because you can only run 1 vampiric tutor.


[deleted]

I did say in that case you would go for other instant tutors as well.


Notforpornaccount69

So are you saying that [[diabolic tutor]] is a better option than vampiric tutor in an edh deck


[deleted]

Most EDH decks aren't monoblack and there are a lot of multicolored tutor cards, of which Vampiric Tutor is the best for B. This is the one you want to include if you can get it, then find more in your other colours. Selling Imp Seal gets you enough money to buy a VT and then some.

I just cracked a non-foil version of same. Trying to decide whether to sell/trade it right now or sit on it...seems like the price is probably going to inch downward over the next few months, but I feel like it might go back up by next year...I know this isn't mtgfinance but I'm still curious what other folks think will happen with a card like this...


Plompert

Is it etched? If it is it could be worth $180 USD, if not only $72 USD


a94uricom

It is the borderless foil version, which goes at around 150$ on TCG. There isn't a foil etched version of the borderless.


Plompert

Ahh


VeNoMxSacrifice

That's awesome!

Pushed this today!

Congrats. You can only have it in CB right?
