Best for
- collectors who already know edition premiums
- people completing or pricing Prophecy (143 cards, code pcy)
- singles buyers focused on Prophecy / Rhystic Study
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 Prophecy, the usual miss is pricing by card name alone without edition (Alpha/Beta/Unlimited/Revised). Money still clusters around Prophecy / Rhystic Study; treating the whole list like one price tier is how people overpay bulk. Also: Prophecy (2000, early Magic) gets mixed into lots that are not the same product — match set code pcy before the art.
What to check first
First: edition line, authenticity, then condition. On Prophecy / Rhystic Study, do condition under light before grade talk. Then use the Prophecy checklist for gaps — sealed is not a plan for the expensive row.
