The average price on "Tarmogoyf" is over five times the top card from the last Magic set, Dragon’s Maze (see "Hottest 'M:TG--Dragon’s Maze' Cards").TCGPlayer.com is the largest collectible card marketplace on the Web, with hundreds of brick and mortar sellers listed. The dollars sold are measured from June 7th (when WotC released the set) through June 25th and reflect all transactions on the site. Average price over the same period is displayed.
According to TCGPlayer.com, the average selling price has continued to increase recently, which means despite the increased supply, demand is increasing faster. For a more detailed analysis by Frank Lepore, editor of Magic.TCGPlayer.com, check out his column (see "A Modern Success").
"Cryptic Command," "Arcbound Ravager," and "Aether Vial," are all punching above their weight, generating more dollar volume than their average retail price would indicate.
