$89 Draft Box - CHANGES

Due to Wizards announcement of Ending all Draft and Set boxes.

I will NOT be restocking items at this point as we transition into 2024 Magic.

Phyrexia Draft Boxes REMOVED - Due to lack of demand and sales, over the last 4 months, i will not be restocking this item. Simply put, no one is buying it.

I have REMOVED the Baldurs DRAFT box and replaced it with Baldurs SET boxes.

The price is the same $89

Further information - In 2024 I plan to transition over to carrying "Play Boxes" at the cheapest price possible. So far, patron feedback has been very positive on the changes. It is a small step in the correct direction.

#1 Demanded MTG item - Collector Boxes

#2 Demanded MTG item - Commander Deck Sets

On the announcement of ending all Draft and Set i have seem a HUGE SURGE in orders wanting to buy the $89 draft boxes.

Over the next 6 months these boxes will slowely be faded out as the PLAY boxes are added.

Wilds of Eldraine DRAFT Boxes - Open orders are now available with Wizards, and i can order any quantity, i have not placed the large order yet for Novemeber to carry this item. Around 4 patrons have actually messaged me wanting this product. That means 99.9% of patrons done seem to care. I am very skeptical if ordering 2,000 boxes is the correct choice at this time. I need another week to decide.

The honest truth right now - Patrons are demanding record amounts of pokemon + FaB + metazoo + One piece + Sorcery + Weiss.

As of right now, i would estimate over 50% of all patron orders are NON-MAGIC related.

While i am staying the course and plan to stick with magic into 2024, it is a fascinating result of the times we are in. Habro + bad management + very weak economy = nervous to purchase anything.

I also believe the upcoming Lord of the Rings Special/Collector boxes will be a homerun success.

For some reason, hasbro is managing "universes beyond" supply/prints runs properly, while tanking normal products. It is truely surreal.

I believe we are at an intersting moment in time with TONS of magic products that have tanked into really attractive price points. The issue is the macro environment is so bad + high interest rates + lack of trust in Magic = No one cares and almost no buyers.

This is the worst i have seem Magic the Gathering in my entire life. I can barely keep up with the messages of people selling collections and unloading everything. It is truely terrifying at times.

Final Comments on Magic - I feel we are at a point in time where i am the only person still buying and holding. History is either going to reflect back at 2023 as the greatest moment in modern times to buy into MTG (simliar to 2008) or......this is the time Magic actually dies.

When viewing it from a standpoint of "Life or Death" of sealed magic. Im sticking with it.

The only thing Hasbro does properly is CHANGE. They always change things.

I believe we will see major changes and even change of leadership in the coming years.

I also have reason to believe future "Magic 30" type products have all been canceled. They were actually planning more "expensive style" throwbacks, including Legends/Urza's type reprints.

Due to massive blowback from the real world, all of these products have been shelved.

Smart Money - In the last 7 days, many long term patrons have placed orders for $89 draft boxes for the first time in a long time. If you are actually reading this, type TACO in the comment section below. I believe many "Whales" are realizing boxes under $100 will be considered cheap in the new era starting soon.

Other News - Sorcery BETA LAUNCH - The demand for this is off the chart. PCG has been grading the 1,000 sorcery Rudy Promo cards every day / non stop. We are targeting a really nice size bundle with 3 booster boxes + 1 starter brick + mat + 1 Graded card.

There is something else planned with Sorcery coming within 60 days.

Other News - Weiss - Azure Lane - Tomorow night is a VERY HOT Weiss release. Multiple patrons have already attempted to reserve multi cases of this product. I will warn everyone in advance. This Weiss set is going to sell out quickly.

Thanks for the continued support, i remain eternally grateful to do this for a living.

It wouldnt be possible without the best Patrons in the world.

Thanks
