Deck price source

Every price badge on the creator decks page, opened up. This shows each card, the exact figure used for it, and the arithmetic that adds to the total, so the number can be checked rather than taken on faith.

Why this number and KC Card Finder disagree. They answer two different questions. This page asks what the list costs to buy anywhere, and uses Scryfall's cheapest non-foil printing per card. KC Card Finder asks what it costs from a shop you can drive to today, and reads live local stock. On 2 August one deck read $23.09 here and $28.10 in KC Card Finder, then $33.23 twenty minutes later, because local stock changes hour to hour and the national floor does not. Neither figure is wrong. They are answers to different questions.

What is counted. Every basic land is left out, since they cost nothing in practice. Every other card counts at quantity times its cheapest non-foil printing. Alchemy rebalances and any card with no paper printing are listed separately as unpriced and add nothing to the total, so a deck can never look cheap by being unbuyable.

Every figure on this page is a link you can buy from. The two buttons at the top of a deck carry the whole list to a store: TCGplayer resolves every line and puts an Add to Cart button under them, at the marketplace these prices are drawn from, and Card Kingdom arrives with the list already in its deck builder, one press of Find Cards from a single-shop order. In the table, clicking a card opens every printing of it on Scryfall sorted cheapest first, so the top row is the printing that produced the figure beside it, and clicking the per-card figure opens that one card at TCGplayer. Nothing here asks you to retype a decklist to check a number.

One deck, priced seven ways

Measured 2 August 2026 on Swayze's Tokens list, the same deck open at moxfield.com/decks/TKnKERgHPkqU1womHdOMhg. Every figure below came out of Moxfield's own API in one call, so these are its numbers rather than an estimate of them.

The $736.34 on Moxfield is a Card Kingdom number. Moxfield stores seven price fields per card and shows whichever provider is selected. Its usd field for this same deck sums to $528.34, so most of the distance between it and this page is a shop's retail markup rather than a disagreement about the cards. Moxfield's own footer, read 2026-08-02, says only this about where its figures come from: "Some card prices and other card data are provided by Scryfall. Scryfall makes no guarantee about its price information and recommends you see stores for final prices and details."

Where the remaining $63.92 goes

Against Moxfield's usd field, the difference splits into exactly two causes:

AmountCause
$26.24Basic lands. Moxfield counts 8 Forest at $3.28 each. This page leaves basics out.
$37.68Printing choice. Moxfield prices the exact printing in the list, this page takes the cheapest printing of that card.

Three cards carry nearly all of the printing gap:

4Enduring Vitality$15.00$19.02$16.08
1Doubling Season$29.45$40.52$11.07
3Hushwood Verge$7.06$8.61$4.65

The number on this page is the floor. It is what the list costs if every card is bought at its cheapest printing, and no shop is obliged to sell at that. Card Kingdom wants $736.34 for the same 60 cards.

And against a local shop

KC Card Finder priced a different deck at $28.10 at 5:09 pm and $33.23 at 5:29 pm the same evening, against $23.09 here. Larry's Game Store went from 43 of 75 cards to 30 of 75 in those twenty minutes and Spankys Card Shop appeared. A local total is a snapshot of what is on a shelf right now, so it moves during an evening while the printing floor holds.
