So, here is the deal. I have a chance @ power, I'm just not sure if I should take it.... I want some opinion!
His unlimited Mox Pearl NM- (front is pristine, back has some very minor blemishes)
My:
4x Arid Mesa 13.15 = 52.60
4x Marsh Flats 13.59 = 54.36
2x Verdant Catacombs 14.36 = 28.72
4x Scalding Tarn 13.75 = 55.00
2x Archive Trap 3.81 = 7.62
3x Day of judgement 11.11 = 33.33
2x Goblin Guide 4.36 = 8.72
2x Bloodcheif Ascension 5.20 = 10.40
1x Felidar Sovereign (foil)7.31 = 7.31
4x Haunting Echoes 1.42 = 5.75
1x Subpetal Grove 5.65 = 5.65
3x Dragonskull Summit 5.88 = 17.64
4x Hellkite Overlord 2.38 = 9.52
3x Traumztize 1.27 = 3.81
2x Twincast 1.50 = 3.00
2x Djinn of Wishes
So really the only things I care about here are the 14 sac lands the the 3 wraths. Would you trade 14 sac lands and 3 wraths for a mox ?  |

| In a heartbeat, without a second's worth of reconsidering and without an ounce of post-trade remorse. |

i would say only you could tell us if you should.
do you play a lot of T1? i won a mox emerald in a tournament some years ago and tool 7 boxes of the newest block in it's stead because never played t1 i just borrowed my friends deck. basically those cards are going to be powerful t2 staples but because of that they may be easy to acquire. plus a piece of power is always cool to have. hope this helped. |

The fetch lands are played in all formats now. You can play them everywhere. But you give all these up for a single card that you can only play in Vintage. I wouldn't trade them. The other cards are OK, but I wouldn't give that many new fetches for a Mox.
(and you counted with very low prices) |

The prices are current prices that I could get selling on ebay this week. They aren't low.
But as stated above, I can always get more fetches, what are the chances that someone is willing to trade a Mox for type 2 product that I can get in abundance? |

No I don't play t1 as I don't have the cards to play it :p
This would be for a collectors item mostly. Maybe a re-sale |

Don't do it.
A friend of mine sold a NM Mox Jet for 250€.
Fetchlands here go for around 10€ - 12€ each, more or less depending if they're U/x or not.
Meaning approx. 170€ =/= 250€
However, if you really need the cash, i'd say do it, but otherwise if you're not truly in need, keep the Mox. |

moxs will always worth a lot fetches are really the only thing in your end that will stay well worth keeping. wraths come and go but some would say moxs' are forever.
fetchlands will always be hot but now that the amount of them out there has doubled it seems like they may be easier to get.
here it is if you're more the star player in your area and dope shit in T2 keep your cards. if you're a bit more casual and actually play magic as a CCG then take the mox. |

My first impression would be trade unless you play ALOT of T2, or very little T1. if thats the case then trade makes no sense besides the fact you can say you have a mox and gloat and cuddle with it at night and stuff...
But If mox sells for more then all the rest of that crap... primarily more then the WoGs and the Fetches then obviously make the trade, then sell it again if you want on ebay and buy the stuff back and make some money in the process. |
