I'm hoping for commander decks lol

Timothy (Timmy) Hoffmaster

That is the paypal mobile short link, that works fine

Rudy The Magic Guy

End of the month, always a spike and a couple days to handle it

Rudy The Magic Guy

hey rudy! i sent payment for one of the draft boxes on paypal a few days ago, but have yet to get confirmation for the order. just wanna make sure that you see my payment and that i did this right

Cobe

Any chance to get an idea on what sales will be fore august 2/4? Missed bloomburrow collectors due to being out of town, I can only be home by midnight ish on friday if it's something interesting

Denkou42

Ok PayPal on pc shows the email. On iPhone it shows me the 69 ID. I was concerned Rudy changed his PayPal. Using the search would not show the address for alpha investments - sorry I haven’t used PayPal with out a third party interface for a long time

Krystian Gieryk

Hi is the PayPal ID alphainvestments69? I want to be sure. I haven’t made a purchase in a long time

Krystian Gieryk

Hey! Was wondering with play boxes coming, are drafts going away? I want to put in an order for some draft but need to wait until next month. Just wanted to make sure they will still be available. Thanks Rudy!

William Kern

Hey Rudy! I made an order during the bloomburrow collector sale and it's my first time ordering. If you could confirm that my order was done correctly and accepted I would really appreciate it!

Brandon Wagner

I'll consider voting for him after I hear his position on a Pikachu based economy.

Joseph MacAllister

🇺🇸 RUDY ‘24! 🇺🇸

Frog Man Dan

9 PM EST or 2100 hours EST if the pm doesn't make sense.

Anthony Paramo

damn missed it. my wife digs the game. she gets together with her boss and some of the other girls and play and crack packs.

Anthony Paramo

Yea I saw it....I recieved a lot of Haye reporting on lorcana...not sure I'll do it again

Rudy The Magic Guy

Hey Rudy. Looks like Amazon put a new all time low on Lorcana Into the Inklands booster. $85 shipped!

Eric Molina

What time do the Friday/Sunday Night specials normally Go Live?

Michael Lasso

What’s up with play boxes for Karlov at $90 tcg?

Ceolo Physis

Patreon Mtg draft boxes breaking $90? And Karlov Manor play boxes at $90 on TCG 😂 … 🤨 Somethings off

Ceolo Physis

Yes

Rudy The Magic Guy

From the recent video on PCG, does this mean we can manually add cards for grading from dead ccgs of years past?

MR

I saw the play boxes are gonig to be 120-125 for bloom, what does it look like the collector boxes are going to be going for on the 26th?

Lightfox Lowell

If you are on a browser there's a button near the top right that says message. Just click that. If you are on a phone it's three dots and an option for message the creator is there.

Tyler McCoy

At release it will be a little higher around $120-$125. Post release a month later, should drop to the teens

Rudy The Magic Guy

Hey Rudy, how’s the outlook on play boxes? Still looking at $109 to $119 range on play boxes when bloomburrow releases?

Heath Mickelson

Hey rudy, I'm trying to send you a message about how to purchase and I'm not sure how to pm on here. If you could reach out to me I have a couple quick questions on the patreon stuff. Thanks

Rodney Burt

I think you mean set boosters (they didn’t make play boosters for Baldur’s). I believe Joshua is referring to an additional sale but he might have missed that one.

Christopher Berkley

Please get Bloomburrow Commander Decks! Thank you.

Becklyn

+1

Andres Delgado

Go with Jumpstart, take 2 and shuffle together, and off to the races you go!

michael rohrbaugh

Lol

michael rohrbaugh

He had one beginning of last month, maybe may, for the play boosters

michael rohrbaugh

yeah, the distributors would have to take more of a loss than that to entice you to pick up a few palettes to sell to us patrons.

Elijah Vanaver

Some distributed discounted MKM down from $115 down to $100 but i dont think it will help sell at this itme

Rudy The Magic Guy

Would it be possible to add MKM to the list? Are distributors dumping that set yet, or holding out for a price spike?

Elijah Vanaver

🇺🇸

Banzai

Sorry I dont have any 151, patrons bought it all on release

Rudy The Magic Guy

Yep, it was moved forward a week due to schedule conflict with bloomburrow

Rudy The Magic Guy

Does that Pokemon sale seem SUPER early to anyone else?

Benny

Seems like the only place I can ask this. Anybody want to trade 2 game pieces Rudy shirts for 2 smalls? I got the mediums.

RetroGraded

im waiting for bloomburrow to drop lol

Ryan BEN

Rudy can I buy 1 paladea evolved sealed box and 2 151 elite trainer boxes. I understand if it is tcg price or a little higher.

Travis Huckleberry

J22 singles also sell very, very well for me. Chase stuff like ashcoat and rhystic study, and a bunch of expensive commons and uncommons to be found. The only downside are those cigarette style cellophane packs can be so hard to open without damaging the cards! And of course the good cards are locked away behind the most difficult risky packaging :)

James Fuller

That’s gonna be a good night!

Alex Patterson

Ah the mystery sales always have me curious. I wish we knew when the Mtg baulders gate sale will be.

Joshua Halstead

I’m really glad to hear things have quieted down for you. People need to understand life sucks sometimes, and they CHOOSE to gamble on cardboard. No one is forcing them to buy anything. Praying you and yours stay well

Adrienne Kansiewicz

I taught 2 kids MTG. For both I used Core sets and incorporated my older cards with less mechanics- where the creatures were simple and did not do xtra stuff. New core sets contain reprints where they still have complex mechanics. But you could use Bloomburrow as well. That way they only have to learn the mechanics for that set. But I've found that challenging because even common creatures so SOMETHING else. Another option are the old planeswalker decks. As they get a handle on that deck, then you can start introducing new cards/sets.

Mark Lamica

With a Beta precon box? AL wont have precon decks.

Mark Lamica

And then in 5 years the same people will show the same screenshot saying “Man!! I wish we could get that box at that price” It’s comical at this point 😂

Riley Richburg

Honestly the best starting point is the 2022 Game Night product on Amazon for 48 bucks. 5 single color decks to make it easy to learn and feel out what each color plays like. Includes dice, counters and instructions.

Omniphil

Plus, the loyalty sale too.

Peter R

My poor, poor bank account. Blommy may take it to pound town.

Peter R

Jumpstart is cool. Shuffle two packs and make a deck. Good for beginners.

Anthony Paramo

🥃

Luca Rovaldi

The Foundations Core Set is print to demand for five years, for what that’s worth.

Logan Pierce

$2 won’t even get you anything on a fast food “value menu” these days.

Logan Pierce

same kit as last time :-)

Rudy The Magic Guy

Kits having 3 boxes again or full case ?

Andrew smith

No Bloomburrow commander decks?

Smashingtrifource .

Excited for another spicy promo 😳

Mateo

should be the same 2,500 kits, and no...i wont have extra boxes to sell post release, and i promis you...it will sell out with extreme demand.

Rudy The Magic Guy

Sure, i can offer you any pokemon case from the last 7 years. But after the initial release, i will never offer those prices again. It would simply be tcplayer pricing. The amount of hatred that was used against me for leaving pokemon boxes available for months was off the chart. Constant people posting public screenshots of how "ovepriced" pokemon was due to market prices swinging post release. Moving forward all boxes are offered at release and then thats it. i keep all remaining until they sky rocket.

Rudy The Magic Guy

Are you expecting a larger print run of Arthurian legends ? If so is this product you could add to the monthly products ?

Andrew smith

Can I private message you for what’s available for sale?

Abran Aragon

never again.

Rudy The Magic Guy

I’m gonna stay the course!

Frog Man Dan

Will you ever add Pokémon boxes to the monthly buy list?

Abran Aragon

Start with the core set. Bloomburrow will still be in print in a year. (or buy some boxes and put them in the closet for later once they master the core set)

1423big

I am ready for some Magic Redwall! I mean Bloomburrow. Seriously gonna be a monster of a hit set. Will actually pick up and crack my first play box with this one.

Andy Wilkes

Actually things have been very good in the last couple months. The volatiltly and attitude of the public/patrons has improved tremendously as the market has improved. Kinda depressing thats how the world works...but it is the reality of handling markets and price swings.

Rudy The Magic Guy

Your “???” for weekly sales are brutal lol 😅 Hope you all are doing well, and people have stopped being stupid for at least a little while for you.

Adrienne Kansiewicz

100% = Bloomburrow is going to be huge.

Rudy The Magic Guy

Excited either way to be part of this fun ride....

Omniphil

Magic people: I have two kids, 10 and 7. They enjoy Pokemon, and actually play it, but I'd like to show them Magic. I haven't played in many years, but I was thinking the animal theme of Bloomburrow might suit them. On the other hand, a new core set is coming in a few months, and the mechanics will be undoubtedly simpler. What do you think? Go with the animals, or wait a few months and go with the easier to learn Foundations set?

Jonathan Witt

yep, that product ONLY has a draft box and is on the verge of out of print also within the next 90 days

Rudy The Magic Guy

Did Jumpstart 2022 just have one type of Booster Box Display?

Tyler Olson

As we head to 2025, you will see the price of the old Draft boxes slowely dissappear and the Play boxes will take over

Rudy The Magic Guy

I am not...i beleive i have a partial case left...8 boxes? i think

Rudy The Magic Guy

Rudy are you sold out of One Piece 500 years?

Randy Byberg

2 bucks a box is honestly nothing in the grand scheme of things. Do what you gotta do and we'll still support you. Unless it goes up 3 dollars, then the pitchforks will come out. Lol

Omniphil

nope, you can get a full sealed case

Rudy The Magic Guy

Is there still a 1 box limit on Ixalan?

Christopher Walsh

$2? Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

Caleb P

Rudy The Magic Guy

2 dollar increase sucks but the prices are still insanely fair. Thanks for keeping the prices low.

Sterban73

If ya dont; it happens vut Id be down for some bloomburrow deck sets. The art's looks awesome

charles j

Correct, The exclusive promo + exclusive playmat is already in production.

Rudy The Magic Guy

October 4th.

John Cavanaugh

if i get allocated a good amount, that will pop up in a small sunday night sale

Rudy The Magic Guy

No Shrouded Fable Booster Bundles?

Liam Singca

uncertain yet, i requested a small amount.

Rudy The Magic Guy

Yes! I think you mentioned that in a video the other day.

Daveinster

you may not see much public posting...but i do expect some nasty private messages. This was a last minute shift due to me seeing todays July 1st 2024 - USPS price increase take effect. It might be the largest single price increase on packages i have seen in my life.

Rudy The Magic Guy

$91? Nothing lasts forever I guess. I still appreciate this pricing btw & the fight you fight us.

Noah Williams

When ~Arthurian Legends!~ coming out?

Mateo

Are you doing Bloomburrow Commander decks?

Jason Vickery

I can’t wait for the complaints that the drafts went up $2 while still remaining $20-$40 under TCGplayer costs.
