Someone is buying all Meloku the Cloudy Mirror

The card Meloku the Clouded Mirror has been printed twice in the history of Magic: the Gathering: first in kamigawa and the second in Modern Master.

It was never a very expensive card, but it does appear on rogues decks or Commander decks focused on combo. For this reason, the card never exceeded the range of 2 dollars. After its reprint, it reached 50 cents although it is rare. But these last few days we have seen an abnormality, someone is buying out of this card.

Meloku has skyrocketed and you can find only a few copies of the card in the market. These few copies are costing more than 7 dollars. At Star City Games, a huge store in the United States, we only see the foil version of Meloku for sale and can pay $ 7 for it. Cardkingdom and ChannelFireBall don't have more stocks of this card. We still see low-priced versions of this card on CardMarket and TCG player, the European trading site.

But what is the reason for this buyout? It is speculated that it is due to the combo this card has with the new Throne of Eldraine land.

Buyouts have occurred before in the history of Magic: the Gathering. One with Nothing also went up in price due to a buyer buying every stock, but the card was rare and in an edition that wasn't very popular. The price of One with Nothing remained high even after years of the incident. After that we had the case of River Bear, an uncommon that doesn't play in any eternal format, but the card went for 2 dollars; but soon after, it cost 10 cents again. What will happen to Meloku?
