    Sol Ring and Demonic Tutor were on the reserved list, but removed from the list before wotc promoting edh long ago.
    Gaea's Cradle was reprinted as a Judge Promo card.
    Mox Diamond was reprinted in From the Vault set.
    Let's see if wotc will keep on breaking its promise.

      Sol Ring and Demonic Tutor were removed from the reserved list in 2002, along with all other commons and uncommons from Limited, due to widespread public support for the change. This was three years before anyone at Wizards played Menery's format (Scott Larabee played with one of Menery's decks in 2005, and went on to advocate for the format within Wizards, leading to the first commander product, two theme decks for MTGO, being released in 2009). So it's misleading to intimate that they took them off the list to print them for EDH.
      Gaea's Cradle was a judge promo in 1998; Mox Diamond was in FtV: Relics in 2010, the set that (along with the Duel Deck Phyrexian Negator was in) triggered the backlash that made Wizards close the "premium card loophole".
      No promises broken there. Now, 30th anni edition... that *was* egregious, but also not a broken promise, because they were neither black nor white bordered.

      Even without that the originals would still hold their value. Look at sol ring from alpha..one of the most used cards in commander..its at 1500 Usd, newest is $1. Reprint them destroy the reserved list, and throw em in commander masters 2

      It's kind of the fault of baseball cards, matchbox cards and the rest. They were pure collectables, with the concept of them being potential investments that goes along with that. Then MtG came along, and that crowd didn't adjust to the fact it was a game.

    I’m sorry but I’ve collected and played since magic started, collectors trying to keep prices up for their own greed is taking away from the people that actually play with their cards, and a collector has to give a crap about what set cards are from, not if they are reprinted, the originals are where the money is, newer cards and repeints are for players so we can play with all same cards everyone else has and keep game relatively even , if you are not going to reprint a card so you can only find copies that are hundreds of dollars…. That makes it unfair, so if the card isn’t going to be reprinted for fairness of game it should be banned, then it’s price will drop anyway, so reprint all the cards that everyone else can afford so everyone can play on even playing field, collector that complain about this… it’s a game first, not your personal portfolio, if it’s all you have maybe you should have thought your life through a bit more

    To give you an idea on how quickly things change, see 6:38:
    The article (from 2002) they say that Psionic Blast would probably never reprint, then got reprinted into a standard set 2x in the next three to four years ((Char in Ravnica city of guilds (2005), functional reprint)) and Psionic Blast in the follow set (Time Spiral - 2006) as a timeshifted card.
    They also changed the rules for the reserve list itself a few years after that following the "From the Vault" and duel-deck issues surrounding reserve list reprints in 2010 (See Phyrexian Negator in DDE along with Mox Diamond, Karn, Silver Golem, Memory Jar and Masticore in V10; all 5 have been on the Reserve list since the 90's)

    Prices are definitely impacted by their scarcity. If the Moxes were ever to be reprinted, I expect the prices to drop significantly since there will now be an alternative version available. At some point, demand for the original art will stabilize, but having an alternative or superior version of the card would immediately send the prices plummeting.

      Explain why Shivan Dragon from Beta and Unlimited has taken a hit with Foundations release.
      Explain why Imperial Seal back in 2021 was nearing the 2k mark up until its reprint treatment in Double Masters 22
      Explain why Unlimited and CE Demonic Tutor have been on nothing but a down hill trend with their value over the years with all the reprints it has received
      Hell, even Mana Crypt book promo has had a uphill battle gaining any value and that's evident when you take the data and look at it on a graph

      @vilesbr1424 Pointing out the one pricing mistske might not be the "gotcha" moment, you think, as it is still a variant of it over 100$, and the card is functionally bad. The examples you listed are staples. Do you wanna compare staples to shivan Dragon? Imperial seal judge promo saw a drop sure. Only 25% in the last year and is rising now. Mana crypt got banned. Then speculated to get unbanned. It didn't happen. Now it's dropped again. This wasn't cause of a reprint. (Y'know, how i started this comment by implying they should reprint the cards) When it was reprinted in lost caverns, it saw a dip of 20% kinda like imperial seal.
      TLDR to answer your question as to why things have been going downhill since 2020/21? One answer is stimulus checks. ALL RESERVED LIST and master pieces went way up. They're now trickling down. Hand a bunch of people free money, and they blow it on magic. I'm sure you read the graph, though.

    1:40 admittedly, I doubt what we are seeing on screen now is the complete "promise" WoTC made to the players / collectors at the time and being the trixxy type of person I am… The sentence beginning "A card is considered functionally indentical…" is interesting because of the word "and" instead of "or" near the end, because only creature cards could satisfy all of those conditions. Also, presumably, the agreement applies to the printed wording of the cards at the time? So, what would prevent WoTC printing a tournament legal version of Ancestral Recall with modern rules text (Target player draws three cards) instead of the original wording for example? Or the original Dual Lands with modern sub-types?

    I was buying revised duals for 20-50 cdn in 2002
    the chance to reprint the cards was in 2010 when the prices weren’t as crazy. 2010 change and closing loopholes was a big catalyst for prices to go up.
    What do you think is affordable for duals, power, handful of other cards that people actually care about?
