ManaPool listingsShould you sell Tendrils of Agony?
Not at the moment. No store we track (CardKingdom and Star City Games) is buying Tendrils of Agony right now, so there is nothing to sell into until one reopens its buylist for it.
As of 10 Oct 2026, the best buylist price is $2.80, though CardKingdom is not buying any copies at that price right now.
That works out to +0.0% over the last 7 days and -22.2% over the last 30 days.
The good sell price is $5.00, and it normally sits around $4.50.
The most any store we track has paid in the last 90 days is $5.00.
It last touched that best of $5.00 around 21 Apr 2026.
That leaves it $2.20 short of the good price, about 44% below the level worth waiting for.
Over the last 90 days the best buylist reached that level on 6 of the 26 times it changed, so it is a price this card does come back to rather than a one-off.
What each buylist pays for Tendrils of Agony today
| Buylist | Pays you | Buying |
|---|---|---|
| CardKingdom | $2.80 best | paused, wanting none |
| Star City Games | no quote right now |
We quote whichever of them pays the most. A store with no quote is one that is not buying this card at all right now, and Star City Games does not publish how many copies it wants, so that column is blank for them rather than zero.
Prices come from the buylists we track (CardKingdom and Star City Games). Updated 10 Oct 2026.
What selling Tendrils of Agony yourself would leave you
A buylist is a standing offer. You send the cards, the store checks them, and you are paid, usually within a few days of them arriving. The price you were quoted is the price you get.
A marketplace listing is not an offer. It is you asking. You write the listing, you pack and post every order yourself, and you are paid only when somebody decides to buy, which might be this week, next month, or never. The figures below are what a sale would leave you if it happens at today’s asking price.
That gap is the whole reason this site exists. Waiting is sometimes worth real money and sometimes worth a few percent, and the only way to know which is to price both.
| Marketplace | Listings sit at | You would clear |
|---|---|---|
| TCGPlayer | $5.47 (Low) | $4.74 best |
| ManaPool | no live listings we can read | no reliable estimate |
On TCGPlayer that estimate is the listing price minus Marketplace commission $0.59, Transaction fee $0.14, plus $0.30 per order at checkout. Postage and the packaging are yours on top, and are not in the number.
These marketplace figures are our own estimate, worked out from listing prices and published seller fees. They are not a quote, nobody is offering to pay them, and they assume the card actually sells. The buylist figure beside them is a real offer you can take today.
How we work out the good sell price for Tendrils of Agony
Every price on this page comes from the buylists we track (CardKingdom and Star City Games), which is what a store pays to buy a card from you. For each store we look at the last 90 days for Tendrils of Agony and take the best across them, counting only the times a store was actually buying it, because a price nobody is buying at is not a price you could ever get.
We weight each price by how long it stayed in place. A price that held for three weeks tells you far more than one that lasted an hour, so the steady levels matter more than brief spikes.
From that history we work out three numbers for Tendrils of Agony:
- Normal ($4.50). The price the buylist sits at most of the time.
- Good ($5.00). A strong price that comes up often enough to be worth waiting for. It sits near the top of the realistic range with one off spikes stripped out, so it is a target you can expect to reach again rather than a fluke.
- Best ($5.00). The highest any store we track has paid for Tendrils of Agony while buying it in this period.
We mark Tendrils of Agony as a sell once the current buylist reaches its good price, give or take a few percent, and as a hold below that.
What the numbers mean
- Current buylist. The best a store we track (CardKingdom and Star City Games) pays for Tendrils of Agony right now.
- Wanted. How many copies that store is buying at that price. Zero means buying is paused for the moment.
- Retail (NM). What CardKingdom charges to sell you a near mint copy. We show it for context, but our signals are about selling, so the buylist is what we focus on.
