Best for
- collectors hunting specific frames and foils
- people completing or pricing Dark Ascension Promos (5 cards, code pdka)

Skip if
- you will not check edition/treatment and still want “NM mythic” prices
- you expect every rare in the set to hold similar resale
Common mistakes
On Dark Ascension Promos, the usual miss is assuming every mythic in a masters set holds sealed-product heat. Money still clusters around Dark Ascension Promos / Strangleroot Geist; treating the whole list like one price tier is how people overpay bulk. Also: Dark Ascension Promos (2012, supplemental / masters) gets mixed into lots that are not the same product — match set code pdka before the art.
What to check first
First: foil premium vs nonfoil. On Dark Ascension Promos / Strangleroot Geist, do condition under light before grade talk. Then use the Dark Ascension Promos checklist for gaps — sealed is not a plan for the expensive row.
