Overview

Time Spiral is a Magic: The Gathering expansion set in the Time Spiral block, released October 6, 2006 with 301 cards. Use the checklist below to track which cards you own, and scan any Time Spiral card with Tappr to pull up its live market price in seconds.

Best for

  • Modern/Pioneer players and set completionists
  • people completing or pricing Time Spiral (301 cards, code tsp)
  • singles buyers focused on Time Spiral / Gemstone Caverns

Skip if

  • you will not check edition/treatment and still want “NM mythic” prices
  • you want a tiny master set — this product is wide; budget special frames separately

Common mistakes

On Time Spiral, the usual miss is buying sealed EV stories instead of the actual chase list. Money still clusters around Time Spiral / Gemstone Caverns; treating the whole list like one price tier is how people overpay bulk. Also: Time Spiral (2006, Modern-era paper) gets mixed into lots that are not the same product — match set code tsp before the art.

What to check first

First: whether the card is standard-legal chase or eternal only. On Time Spiral / Gemstone Caverns, do condition under light before grade talk. Then use the Time Spiral checklist for gaps — sealed is not a plan for the expensive row.
