About Basalt Monolith
This page covers the retro frame printing of Basalt Monolith (524), an Artifact from 30th Anniversary Edition (30A). It is printed at Uncommon rarity. It is legal in Legacy, Vintage, Commander and Oathbreaker.
524 exists in 2 printings on TCGplayer, and each is priced as its own product. At US$149.00 on TCGplayer this Retro Frame print is 16x the standard print at US$9.54. For reference the other printings read Standard US$9.54 on TCGplayer.
The cheapest listing in the United States is US$139.99, level with TCGplayer's US$149.00 market price. Only one store has it in the United States, so the price is whatever that shop asks and there is no second quote to check it against.
The United States is the cheapest of the 2 markets that have it, and Canada is dearest at about 8% more once converted. In each market's own currency the cheapest listings read US$139.99 in the United States and C$207.00 in Canada. Conversions use indicative exchange rates, and postage, duty and import tax are not included, so a cheaper market elsewhere is a fact about listings and not a reason to import.
It is trading at its 90-day high of US$149.00.
30th Anniversary Edition is a reprint set, which collects earlier cards, released November 2022. Basalt Monolith has 13 other cards in the database, listed further down the page.

Live listings, including used and international sellers: a useful cross-check on the store prices above, and often the only source for older printings. Graded slabs get their own tab, so they never distort the raw price. eBay prices are sellers' asking prices and are never ranked with the stores.
