I think I got a better deal on my original Zendikar booster pack. At least I could pull some fun fast fetch lands. It was $40 if I recall at Mox Ballard.
This is more reasons why I havent bought or played since March despite Marvel and the Hobbit being some of my favorite properties, and reality fracture looks super cool, but I won't do it. Until the pace slows down, and the prices come down I'm done
I went to my LGS to get the LOTR bundle when it came out, and left empty handed because they were asking what was, to me, to much money over easily trackable market value.
They wanted $60.
That was *three years ago*.
Soooooo back to back full UB sets....and they didnt think this is weren't scalped enough so they're pre-scalping the cards with theses costs??? I miss old magic
Damn, maybe I won't do multiple Prereleases.
I was hoping to grab enough from the weekend events to have most of the commons and uncommons for Cube, and just proxie whatever else I need more expensive than like 50¢
Very. More people in my area are getting out or switching to riftbound.
I've basically stopped buying at this point and have been going through bulk to make pauper and cheap cheap commander decks.
For all the criticism we give wizards for its abandoning constructed support, over producing new sets, universes beyond slop, and bad limited environments, them abandoning MSRP in 2019 is the worst decision they've made by far
People saw how well and popular LotR was, so they are trying to go back to jacking it up like they did with FF. Sadly the best thing is to starve them and just buy singles until the bubble bursts again like with AtLA, Spidey, etc.
As a community everyone needs to start saying how horrible the spoilers look, even if they are all bangers.
All these prices are driven by 5 spoiled cards which is crazy, no matter how good they are.
