Desperate Ritual's foil version commands a serious premium—you're looking at £14.71 against £1.64 for the regular printing, nearly 9 times the price. That gap suggests the foil is either scarce or in high demand among builders, so if you've got one sitting around it's worth checking current stock before letting it go cheap.
