~ Price Swings ~
Added 2022-01-12 16:02:12 +0000 UTCHeads up, multiple patrons have sent updates regarding items currently moving in price.
Videos will be made on these items within the next couple days
Metazoo - NightFall 1st edition booster boxes - Bottomed at $180 a box, The last 4 days straight have showed very strong sold listings. Price now hitting $230. Based on the trend, it appears these boxes will hit $300+ a box since it is out of print and no additional product is coming to market. Of course all supplmental items like spellbooks/event decks will increase in simliar ratios.
Magic - Zendikar Collector Boxes - Bottomed last year at $169 a box, currently at $250-$260, with very little supply left on the market. Expect $300+ a box due to lack of supply. This item is also out of print.
Weiss - Sword Art Online - Bottomed at $58 a box, Supply has been completly wiped out nationwide. Now averaging $80 a box. Out of print, with extremly low supply on market. Expect $200-$300 price target. Reminder, this is the Weiss set with Serialized very rare chase cards.
Pokemon - Chilling Reign - I completed the deal and took a huge chance. I am now the largest holder of Chilling Regin Booster boxes. Approx 3,000 boxes. I dont expect any price increase for a year. But the risk of regret is greater than the risk of losing money on this item.
Flesh and Blood - Overall - No major price increases to report on. But in the last 30 days, pricing and supply appear stable compared to the last 12 months of declines. I believe everyone is waiting to see what happens with Everfest.

I also took a chance on battle styles & chilling reign. I'm currently sitting on 30 boxes of each set and will keep adding to my position. At the current prices around $80 a box, I honestly don't see any downside risk for long term. Pika pikaaaaa! ;)

2022-01-14 00:52:15 +0000 UTCThis actually inspired me to make a thing. I'm working on a graph that allows you to view remaining stock based on the price in a graphical form. Hopefully would help you identify when an item will spike soon because inventory is getting low. The data is manually populated right now but I'm working on getting a TCGPlayer API id to pull live data.

2022-01-13 10:07:52 +0000 UTCBrothers and the lovely 3.666% women, I've been watching the past sets Collectors Boxes, especially Kaldheim, AFR, Midnight Hunt, and others and after buying what Rudy has I've been picking up 1-3 a week where I can to take advantage of the $169.00 Kaldheim pricing. I've also been buying some of the Zendikar before they shoot up to $300. What I like most about the small collector boxes is the store of value in such a small form factor. I've already reached a place where a small bedroom is now needed and set aside for MTG collection storage. Take advantage of the non top of mind product that are low in price, get your position while getting in is cheap.

2022-01-12 20:07:19 +0000 UTCFaB quietly going to dominate
2022-01-12 18:18:34 +0000 UTCShould also mention commander legends draft has moved from 100 a box to 115 since December 31st

2022-01-12 18:10:22 +0000 UTCI wonder how much licensing is? I hope the signatures come back for English. I love collecting the signed waifus 🥰

2022-01-12 17:49:45 +0000 UTCDoes anyone else find it curious that MetaZoo CN first edition has not also gone up in price? Print run is smaller so yeah Market has it wrong here too
2022-01-12 17:42:53 +0000 UTCMy second case of Chilling Reign arrived today. Though 12 pales in comparison to 3000.

2022-01-12 17:04:15 +0000 UTCWait the Japanese ones still have signatures but the English do not, but English has numbered cards and Japanese don't???

2022-01-12 17:01:29 +0000 UTCLicenses. The Japanese version did. So that’s why they did the serialized cards

2022-01-12 16:54:03 +0000 UTCWhy doesn't Sword Art Online have signatures???¿?

2022-01-12 16:46:56 +0000 UTCWhy Chilling?
2022-01-12 16:44:05 +0000 UTCAnd to think I almost skipped the Sword Art say because it doesn’t have signatures
Quinton Neff
2022-01-12 16:42:25 +0000 UTCJeez; I felt happy about picking up 12 boxes of Chilling Reign and 12 boxes of Battle Styles at a basis around $85. Glad to be on the same side as Rudy, but shit that's a lot of boxes.

2022-01-12 16:34:40 +0000 UTCI hold 3,001 Chilling Pain booster boxes. Checkmate, Sir Rudy.
2022-01-12 16:32:22 +0000 UTCLooked on TCGPlayer and most stock on collectors boxes (except Kaldheim) is crazy low too so either prices will continue to spike and/or the spikes will draw more inventory to the market

2022-01-12 16:25:14 +0000 UTCIdk if anyone else has noticed. metazoo booster boxes at $230 = $6.40 per pack. Spellbooks are still available on tcgplayer for like $44 which is $4.40 per pack.

2022-01-12 16:24:30 +0000 UTCWhich artist left?
2022-01-12 16:19:07 +0000 UTCStrixhaven collector booster box also moving in price. The normal set is not very good, but there is a lot of good commander cards, in extended version only available in collector booster. There is also some chase Mystal Archive cards in those collector booster box. I expect the price will be 350$+ at the end of the year. Also for canadian, those CB boxes are available for 230$+ CAN at 401 games, wich is weird because the price in the US is now 240$+ USD
2022-01-12 16:16:31 +0000 UTCEverest gonna be a home run
2022-01-12 16:16:04 +0000 UTCSpotted that sword art online trend a few weeks ago. People are going nuts trying to find serialized cards and most of them are probably sitting in Rudy's basement lol
Derek
2022-01-12 16:15:53 +0000 UTCI got my one Nightfall box from the first Rudy bundle, happy to hear it’s going up a little =]
Will Bradshaw
2022-01-12 16:13:57 +0000 UTCIs the Wiess box Rudy is talking about the Vol2 or Vol1 Sward Art Online Alicization?

2022-01-12 16:13:54 +0000 UTCAmazon is about to run out of stock as well on the Zendikar Collector Boxes (I track all MTG booster boxes) The path to $300 will have little to no resistance.
Jarek Lewis
2022-01-12 16:11:52 +0000 UTCI don't see any downside to Chilling Reign. Don't think your going to regret this at all.

2022-01-12 16:11:07 +0000 UTCNot knocking the news it’s all over the groups on fb as well however there are still tons of boxes of nightfall at the 190-200 price out there. Get them while you can
Joseph Everett
2022-01-12 16:10:16 +0000 UTCYeah saw nightfall spike last night grabbed 4 @190 no tax, thanks as always rudy

2022-01-12 16:09:26 +0000 UTCI will trade three sealed boxes of nightfall for a MP - HP Diamond Valley

2022-01-12 16:08:19 +0000 UTCI knew ZR collector boxes would go up. Glad I purchased 12 boxes when I did. Cant wait to see what happens in the coming years.
2022-01-12 16:07:51 +0000 UTCZendikar is the most powerful collector box of 2020. Two box toppers with enemy/ally fetch land chances immediately, and opportunity in each pack for a foil. Cavern of Souls is trending way up too.
2022-01-12 16:07:45 +0000 UTCI’ve got three boxes of nightfall i usually like to record myself opening those kinds of things but I just haven’t wanted to plus I think I’ve already pulled all the “chase” cards through other products like spell books and blister packs, and I was given a lot of packs to open for free at collect a con in October. Also I wonder if one of the main artists leaving MetaZoo will have any sort of impact
Ozzy B.
2022-01-12 16:07:33 +0000 UTCDid Rudy ever offer the last 2 commander sets?
GhostUnit
2022-01-12 16:07:02 +0000 UTCThere’s been big price swings on Pert Plus too…Rudy is unconcerned!
