Comments

I've been supporting Rudy for years as I said in my post. I've listened to much of his sage advice and have been able to reap some benefits from said advice. I am completely aware of what Patreon is and have supported other creators in the past. I've tried for months to obtain a spot because of the benefit provided by Rudy. As you said "Money is tight" and if I can save a few bucks and supporta creator I love I will absolutely jump at the chance. Furthermore, I'd rather give my money to Rudy as my local LGS went under a few years back and I'd rather put whatever monies I spend on Magic in Rudy's pocket and not that of Target or some nameless eBayer I do not know. At no point did I ever exclaim that Rudy is a Costco and that I'm trying to pillage him. I took offence to your comment because what I said I said in earnest as a long time fan not someone looking to take advantage of a situation.

same here :)

I believe that it's out of print now. It was the spring 2019 set.

Chris Doersen

while i appreciate the support gentleman, sorry, there is no pausing of accounts, any account that is closed, is a one way street, there is no coming back due to demand and i stand firm as i will never re-open the slots to allow a new wave of patrons. The new product cannot support another wave of 100+ patrons.

Rudy The Magic Guy

I don't want to be rude, and I understand money is tight for a lot of folks right now, but I think your fundamentally misunderstanding what Patreon is. Your supporting Rudy as a PATRON of his content as a creator (see it's right there in the name); not subscribing to some MTG only Costco. The boxes are just a thank-you for supporting his content.

OMG after watching Rudy for years I saw a spot open up and quickly snatched it up. I'm tired of paying retail for the boxes. Thanks Rudy

No war of the spark?

UPS, (oops, i hit the enter key for a new paragraph). The system is easier, but the offer swap for the value loss vs undamaged and therefore "usable" is tougher, but i was able to actively message them and get assistance almost instantly. However, pretty much when they "close a claim" there seems to be not recourse. Lots of pics, proof of value, e.g. invoices or e-reciepts make it easier.

michael rohrbaugh

UPDATE ON USPS AND UPS CLAIMS: I had damage from both on my sealed products, and have filed claims with both. First, USPS, not the easier system to use, but if filed completely and consistantly after them then a quick response will be obtained. However, they seem to offer 35 percent of the products cost (replacement can be filed as well, but needs to be filed in supplmental filings). after appeals and supplemntals I obtained about 60ish percent of the replacement cost, luckly it was something we were going to popen for our son's bday.

michael rohrbaugh

I asked him a couple of days ago. He is expecting the shipment shortly, they has to get it all set up on ebay.

NOLA0977

Rudy mentioned to me that several hundred more shirts are on the way...stand by I guess. I'm sure he'll post when they are ready for purchase

Darin W

Great, thanks for the info

Did I miss the re-stock of XL t-shirts?

Beach Boy Gaming

Shipping is included. All prices are all-in: product, shipping, and taxes.

Chris Doersen

How much is shipping? Is it included in the list price?

Are you related to Terese? I'd ask her... but otherwise nope, nothing you can do

Steve P

nope , just pay and pray.

Coldest1

You'll see an email that says "Creepy Rudy Magic Dude" Creepy Rudy has shipped your stuff lol. Also your paypal email should say that you sent him money

Derek

Just be patient for a day or two. You should receive a tracking number for your order then.

Chris Doersen

I was wondering if there is any sort of confirmation of purchase when I buy stuff? I just ordered some boxes yesterday and it’s the first time I have bought something on here

did you get the tracking number from Rudy? Message him

Does someone know where to go about missing packages

Not sure, but I hope you can figure it out!

Frank Sek

Anyone can tell me how I can put USA forwarder address on paypal? I am using Hong Kong paypal and can only put Hong Kong address. Please assist.

Make sure you're sending as 'goods/services'

You do it as goods and services

You're not supposed to send it as personal.

Holden Omans

Getting an error message on Paypal - "Sorry, this recipient can’t accept personal payments." Anyone know why?

Yeah I think when someone leave the spot becomes available for anyone.

Yoyigo Tintor

No, 2XM will be today special sale at 9pm est. It wil not last more that an hour so be carefull

Yoyigo Tintor

sure are alot of new patrons lately, anybody else find that wierd?

Can't offer an opinion for paypal, but ebay now offers their own payment system.

JODY MCCULLOUGH

It was $1,549.99

Will we be able to order VIP 2XM through here?

New patreon here, question about purchasing boxes. All I see is Paypal info; is there any alternative? I'm currently boycotting Paypal as they refused to refund/credit the (low amount) of $45 that was spent when someone hacked into my account and switched emails and passwords. I'm also screwed out of selling on Ebay because they only use Paypal for payments...

Not until it is off allocation and on the list.

Can we order Core Set 2021 yet? It's not on the product list, but it is a standard box. Just checking before I place my order. Messaged Lord Rudy with no repsonse. Any help Here? Thanks!

Private Message Rudy and ask directly.

Michael C

How do I sign up for the 10 shocklands challenge?

I suspect that some Made in USA boxes are in fact 1st printings, however not as for sure as the Made in Japan boxes.

Michael C

I did as well. Same situation

Jason St. Mary

Did anyone who ordered the 79.99 Ikoria boxes crack theirs? I opened up a box that I had ordered through Rudy today and it had the Death Corona box topper which I thought was very strange.

Can any of the Patrons who bought the Investors Bundle please tell me what the cost was for that? I know it was somewhere around 1,500 to 1,600 dollars - if you know the exact cost please message me. Thanks

Darin W

fat andy just wants tshirts

calendar month

Michael C

Quick question - are orders by calendar month, or every 30 days? Ie. If I order 6 boxes on 6/25, can I order another 6 boxes on 7/5, or do I have to wait until 7/25?

If someone ever decides to cancel your $20 sub let me know first, I want to snag it before it gets gobbled up in the void :D I want to be able to get 12 boxes/month xD On a side note just got my 6 boxes of Ikoria! Thanks a ton Rudy!

You send payment for the total amount. For example, you purchase four (4) Standard Throne of Eldraine boxes: state "4 boxes Throne of Eldraine" in the notes and make the payment for $319.96

Chris Doersen

First time buying boxes, when it says “Enter the dollar amount equal to how many boxes you want” does that mean I’ll send $1 payment, with a message of which box I want? Or do I pay the full price and say how many boxes I want in the note?

OBE, SOLD OUT. Different thread for the Jumpstart Booster Boxes - Wave 1

Michael C

how much is the jumpstart that comes out today

Usually it is 60-90 days after release Tim :)

Any word on when Core 2021 standard boxes will be on sale?

Also interested in this info!

No

Gold

Very excited to see what Jumpstart price is going to be :D People are out of their minds charging $175 for it atm.

Are Theros orders still being delayed?

Jump Start boxes still happening tomorrow?

that always happens, just give it some time and it will come back. Theros was the same way, and so was eldraine.

Aaron Paolozzi

GOD ZILLA

It doesn’t seem so. Normally he would make another post and revise this one saying not available

Is the investors kit sold out yet?

Rudy if you read this and would be interested i would love a video on some of the old booster boxs under 1000$ box that we should buy currently either to save or open and rip the packs.

Buddyfight liquidation sale coming at some point?

Everything is sold out and "locked" People have apparently lucked out though and caught openings before Patreon could refresh in time after people have left. Otherwise no. Rudy officially shut down all tiers. He made several videos noting it, giving people a couple of months to move around or newly join.

I am confused, is the $20.00 Patrons sold out? May I upgrade from the $5.00 Patrons.

Pretty sure no. It’s considered a sale item.

Will Jumpstart count towards our standard boxes? I assume no because it’s not standard legal, right?

Core 21 pre release kit box?

Got excited for my boxes to arrive after reading your comment and went to check on my shipment and the tracking says they haven't even been picked up and is still in pre-shipment. Feels bad man :( Hope you got some great pulls from yours though :)

Hi Rudy, I placed an order using my personal account and I’m now just reading this. I will send you a message in regards to what my paypal account looks like vs my Patreon account here.

Children of Alara

Here here man, there is so much product it's really hard to keep up, especially eith the heavy price points. Seems as though the cards are keeping their value so far because of it though.

Just got my core set 2021 collector boxes in the mail! Super awesome that I got it on release day! You’re awesome Rudy!

Quick question to everyone including Rudy.With Double Master's will purchasing a single booster box be available, or will there be a 2 box min/max in place? I do alright for myself, but wallet fatigue is a true story. I 'd be on board having to pay extra for a single box to be shipped the same as the 2, but not sure if the old finances will agree with me on a two box price point. Thanks everyone, and thank you Rudy for another great deal as usual with the monthly standard boxes purchase!

Any guesstimates on Jumpstart box prices?

Order placed for boxes, thanks Rudy!

So true

Yoyigo Tintor

Ordered my six boxes of Ikoria draft :D

Did anyone just realize that the Ikoria Investor Kit does not come with a Signed Card from Rudy?!?!

The taco man is a little back-logged with messages right now. Creepy Rudy will send you an email message once your order ships.

scatt

Well, this is my first time doing this, so I'm not ordering again unless I get confirmation I did it right. I sent rudy a pm several days ago. Still waiting.

That was for the month of June, don't know if he will still offer pioneer cases this month.

Mike Mags

Wut

Fasty

Thank you for all the options Rudy.

There are box toppers for Ikoria? How did I not know this lol.

The monthly standard stuff can be ordered at anytime of the month. The sale items also assuming stock is still available. He will update it if it runs out.

Gold

Do we have to order today or wait until 08/01? Or can we order midway through the month? I just need 1 box of Ikoria

When ikoria collector is sold, can we just buy 1 box or will we have to buy 2 at a time? Hopefully i can buy just one to enjoy with my son.

Dayum that ikoria investors kit looks juicy, where's my dam 2nd stimulus package when I need it ??? =\

Edwin

Good move limiting Ikoria Collector boxes to those who missed out last time.

Rudy mentioned Core 2021 was 60 days out back a week or two ago. So $79.99 2021 you're looking at late August/Early September depending on sales.

If you’re asking about the regular boxes, that won’t be offered until it’s off allocation which will be awhile depending on demand

Gold

What about 2021?

Rodderick Williams

Yes, it's 6 in a case

Thats when it goes on sale. and No anyone can order.

Violent Ken

No, that's a sale item. Standard boxes are only the ones listed under that heading.

David Brosseau

I just pushed both buttons!! LoL

David Brosseau

Awesome I was not able to take advantage of Ikoria collectors boxes last time so I will 100% be taking advantage this time. Also how many collectors boxes come in a sealed case? I assume 6? If one were to purchase the two and the investors bundle can we get a sealed case?

Louis Dalessio

i am new here, do the dates mean we can not order until july 8 or 18? does it go “on sale” then? and do you have to be $10 and above to even order?

Elyssa Lowman

My order for a case of 1st printing/edition Ikoria, English, Made in Japan, booster boxes is in.

Michael C

Ok, I have a confuse. No mention of any Pioneer cases in this post. Yet the description on the Jump Start vid Rudy just posted lists Spark as being the Pioneer offering this month. I don't have any Spark yet, so wouldn't mind grabbing a case...

That's what I came up with. Totally worth it. Curious to see how you can tell the difference between the First / Second Edition Regular Boosters

Ikoria investor kit 5 x Ikoria Collectors boxes = $230.01 4 x 1st edition English/Made in Japan = $399.96 = $1,549.99 Shipped If my math is correct, Ikoria Collector's Box is $230~ ea.

Does jumpstart count towards standard boxes?

How many and price collector's Ikoria on July 18?

Charles A Lueg

Yah those, thanks

Nathan Mann

If you’re asking about the ones he’ll offer to those who missed out. It should 220 a piece like the original post

Gold

How much will the ikoria collector boxes be?

Nathan Mann

Even his normal priority is taking longer now at least coming to California for me

Gold

Me lolz

Gold

How do you tell if a box is 1st edition? Just saying it was printed in Japan does not automatically mean its 1st edition.

JimmyTheSaint

Man I am loving the investor kits, so many goodies in a nice bundle!

Gold

I hope my mortgage refinance comes through quickly so I can jump on that Ikoria variety case!

Kevin Robinson

Who's passing on Core 2021 for more Ikoria? Trying to decide T_T

Love the list but I would of really liked and hopped right on the wagon for a kit of 1x First Edition Ikoria and 1x Ikoria Collectors box, now that would of officially put you in the cool kids club.

7-17 days... or longer

1st edition Ikoria or non 1st edition insert "which button to push" meme

feels like pokemon with people wanting first editions 🤠

Glad to see the 1st print Ikoria did after all make it to the list this month.

I'm excited about this months offering :)

:( just found out I have to go on a long business trip for several months, guess I'll save money by not ordering boxes... *big adult sigh*

Grey Shirt Guy

Yayy! ✨

I've been waiting for this all day!
