Card Kingdom currently pays $9.20 cash for TSR #309 (Foil); the retail-buylist spread on that printing is 60% (wide).

• Mar 19, 2021 If for some reason you can't win the game (because your opponent has cast Angel's Grace this turn, for example), you won't lose for having tried to draw a card from a library with no cards in it. The draw was still replaced.
• Mar 19, 2021 If two or more players each control a Laboratory Maniac and each player is instructed to draw a number of cards, first the player whose turn it is draws that many cards. If this causes that player to win the game instead, the game is immediately over. If the game isn't over yet, repeat this process for each other player in turn order.

Laboratory Maniac has been reprinted 20 times. The Innistrad Remastered reprint cut the price 93% in 30 days.
