About Mel, Newly Awakened
Mel Promo is a promotional printing of Mel, Newly Awakened. It shares collector number 069B/166 with the Vendetta original but is a separate product that trades at its own price. It is a Unit in the Mind domain and costs 4 energy to play, with 4 might.
Mel, Newly Awakened is down 14% over the last week, down 7% over the last month, at US$281.75 in the United States today. That is the bottom of its tracked range (US$281.75–US$1,250.00) — the cheapest we have recorded it. Against a median of US$326.32, it is currently 14% cheap by its own standards.
2 stores in the United States carry it and they are priced within 1% of each other — US$275.00 to US$279.00 at the top two. A tight spread across several sellers is the sign of a settled price, so postage and how much else you can add to the same order matter more than which shop you pick.
Mel, Newly Awakened is stocked in 6 of the markets we track — the United States, Australia, the United Kingdom, Singapore, Canada, the EU — each priced in its own currency, so the table above ranks by delivered cost inside whichever market you pick rather than converting between them. In the United States the cheapest listing is US$275.00 before postage and US$279.00 delivered.
The promo print carries a 243.4× premium over the plain version — US$275.00 against US$1.13. Both are legal in the same decks, so that gap is paying for the art and the scarcity, not for anything on the table.
Within Vendetta this is a genuine chase card: it is more expensive than 96% of the 269 priced cards in the set, against a set median of US$0.17. Cards at this end of a set's distribution are what make sealed product worth opening, and what make it expensive to buy singles for a deck that needs them.

Prices are live listings from stores in each market, in the currency that store actually 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 GST/VAT aren't included, so a cheaper market elsewhere isn't necessarily cheaper to get delivered to you.
