About Sonic Screwdriver
This page covers the surge foil printing of Sonic Screwdriver (789), an Artifact from Universes Beyond: Doctor Who (WHO). It is printed at Uncommon rarity. The one keyword in its text is Scry. It is legal in Legacy, Vintage, Commander and Oathbreaker.
789 exists in 6 printings on TCGplayer, and each is priced as its own product. At US$17.35 on TCGplayer this Surge Foil print is 4.6x the standard print at US$3.78. For reference the other printings read Surge Foil US$18.51, Surge Foil US$11.34, Standard US$3.78 and Standard US$3.19 on TCGplayer.
TCGplayer's market price, built from recent sales, is US$17.35, and the cheapest listing we track in the United States is US$20.39, 18% above it. 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.
Across 3 markets the prices sit close together; Australia is cheapest, but not by enough to cover shipping. In each market's own currency the cheapest listings read A$29.00 in Australia, £16.10 in the United Kingdom and US$20.39 in the United States. 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.
The market price moved +2.2% over the last 7 days; there is not yet a 30-day window to set that against. It is trading at its 90-day high of US$17.50.
Universes Beyond: Doctor Who is a main expansion, released October 2023. Sonic Screwdriver has 1 other card in the database, listed further down the page.

Prices are live listings in each market, in the currency that seller charges. The “≈ USD” column is an indicative conversion for comparison only: not a quote, and not what you'll be billed. Stores generally ship within their own market, and international postage, duty and import tax aren't included, so a cheaper market elsewhere isn't necessarily cheaper to get delivered to you.
