I got a few Grand Markets early on and was generally pretty lucky enough to build up a decent lead on him before turn 14 where I Apprenticed my Province....
I love Apprentice.

(I did not create the Trogdor the Burninator song nor am I associated with its producers in any way.  I just think it sounds cool. :P)

Yup, Apprentice can be good.  A pretty interesting game is annotated here.  Apprentice can be useful pretty often, especially if you are willing to trash some of your more expensive cards.

Apprentice is awesome. Apprentice/Market Square is supposed to be a crazy good combo up there with Hermit/Market Square, though I've never had the opportunity to try it, myself.

Apprentice/Market Square came up in one of my GokoDom matches. Crazy stuff.

In general, Apprentice is an awesome card to have when you're ahead. It also helps clear out junk while maintaining power in the late game. My favourite thing about Apprentice is when it trashes another Apprentice.

I like the purchase of the first Grand Market which edgecases Abandoned Mine as better than copper.
