The read
This is Painful Quandary from The Brothers' War (mtg), listed as rare. The latest measured market price is $1.73, recorded 2026-07-27. Over the last 30 days, 30 price points were recorded, moving from $1.57 (2026-06-27) to $1.73 (2026-07-27), a 10.2% change across that window. Against its set, it outperformed by about 8.8% over the same window, so most of its move was its own rather than the set moving with it. Over the last 90 days, though, it underperformed its set by about 5.5%, so that recent strength is a turn. It sits about 65% below its highest recorded price of $4.94 (in our data since 2024-02). The foil trades about 18% below the normal print ($1.73 vs $2.1).
