Hey. Does anyone know where I can find a printable price guide? I have someone who doesn't have access to the Internet and I'm trying to help him out. Thanks

Wow... there are more than 18,700 unique cards in the game, more than 42,000 when counting reprints. I have no idea how many more counting foils. I don't even want to calculate how many pages that would be at 6pt font and enough information to identify individual cards along with their L/M/H prices.
In addition, a percentage of the cards have very volatile pricing making such a printed page very quickly out of date in a matter of days or even hours.
Please feel free to take someone else's suggestion over mine. I usually look for meta data about cards, not prices. But if you can narrow the cards down to say... particular sets, you can probably print up the price lists from mtggoldfish.com which scrapes their prices (I think) from TCGPlayer.com. It's not super accurate but it does give a general idea of prices. Remember that TCGplayer isn't always an accurate reflection of market. Quite often prices can be lower at sites like eBay and shops NEVER pay full TCGP list price.

Hi there ... Cldmldsjd? How do you pronounce that? Are you from the Aberstwyth Cldmldsjds?
Sadly, the concept of a printed price guide is fairly obsolete. If you're just looking for Standard prices, you can, as Lion suggests, print the list from someplace like Goldfish. If your friend is trading at a store, however, he's more than likely going to be able to ask the store staff or an event judge "Is this fair?" He could also ask his trading partner to look up prices and show him - I do this all the time at GPs. We'll agree on a source, then look up prices on the fly. Showing the other person your phone is not that difficult.
