WARNING - Modern Horizons Pricing
Added 2019-05-21 19:06:45 +0000 UTCJust a heads up, Modern horizon prices are now pushing $200.00+ a box and i expect them to level between 200-220 a box as we approach release.
Since a LOT of stores pre-sold boxes early and the market expected a weak set, market reaction was very strong today with the announcement of a VERY impressive land cycle.
The creation of these new RARE not MYTHIC lands just created a similar $10-$30 dollar land cycle per card and is going to add a huge support level to box prices moving foward.
A lot of stores have contacted distributors this morning attempting to raise the number of boxes they can get. (which is not possible, all stores have quantities locked in 2 months ago)
This will NOT change my pricing and have no intentions of raising my prices to over $200+ a box.
I maxed out all BOXES from EVERY distributor in the country 2 months ago. I expect to be able to get between 1,000-2,500 boxes
being sold at 3 or 6 box orders, these will still sell out.

I bought mine first chance at 185, so bought a case. If you sites this long to buy it’s a damn good price

2019-06-01 17:35:12 +0000 UTCI was thinking about ordering some MH boxes to sit on for a bit. I figured I may as well buy em from Rudy's emporium.
2019-05-28 17:07:34 +0000 UTCSeems like the best thing is if you want the set then buy the set. Dont be weak or wait for opportunities. Just get it if you want it. A good rule is to not let yourself be disappointed. Youll be more disappointed if you don't get the things you want when you want it. The trend I've seen is the booster box will gain value it might take more time, but it will.
2019-05-27 06:41:41 +0000 UTCIm going to be watching this like a hawk so I can at least order some.
2019-05-24 21:27:38 +0000 UTCHahahaha...all good. No taxes, includes shipping. Email looks correct. Can verify here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/26516644
2019-05-23 13:52:17 +0000 UTCWhen we do place our order and send our money VIA Paypal, to Rudy's Paypal Email, do we include taxes in the the sent Money, or is that already included in the payment itself? Also just wanted to confirm that this is the right Paypal Email: AlphainvestmentsLLC@gmail.com. lol sorry I'm a worrier and a neat freak when it comes to transactions.

2019-05-23 12:29:53 +0000 UTCWe don't know yet...soon tho. Around 10 days prior to release. Rudy will create a new post for it. Chances are he will also create a 24 hour notice post due to MH1's current demand.
2019-05-23 10:34:29 +0000 UTCWelcome aboard! That info can be found here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/26516644
2019-05-23 10:32:21 +0000 UTCWhen exactly will ordering for MH begin? I really Need to make sure I get on this as soon as possible

2019-05-23 04:05:25 +0000 UTCNew to Patron. Can someone explain how I place orders for boxes available? Thanks
2019-05-23 03:44:56 +0000 UTCMy LGS just said it was one buy a box promo and the other card was for pre release weekend
Vlper
2019-05-23 02:27:41 +0000 UTCWatch very closely...I don't believe they are killing the current power lvl of existing cards (sure maybe the uncommons/commons ;)...only adding more. 8) So far the only recognized power creep to a specific card I have seen is the Sliver Queen..but she will still hold her own in the Legendary slot card type due to sliver synergy I feel. I could be wrong.
2019-05-22 23:54:45 +0000 UTCJust wondering for LGS's Rudy: I heard that there would be two buy a box promos for this set. Does this mean you have a 50/50 chance of getting flusterstorm? Or does this mean you get both in the promo pack. I didn't know if you had any information on this.
2019-05-22 18:37:50 +0000 UTCMagic is being changed. First Kaledesh Energy over powered, Uncommon to Mythic Planeswalkers WAR, And a Set with a ton of weird Overpowered cards. they are going to kill the current power level. and its awesome. lol

2019-05-22 18:28:59 +0000 UTCnope....any lower and i would rather keep the boxes sir

2019-05-22 17:55:31 +0000 UTCno shipping/handling/taxes or any extra fees/costs ever :-)
Rudy The Magic Guy
2019-05-22 17:55:17 +0000 UTCIf it's being sold at 185-195 from you now but is print to demand, is it possible to be resold again some time within a year at a lower price? Or will you resell it at the same price later?
2019-05-22 17:52:35 +0000 UTCwill tax be included?
2019-05-22 16:00:10 +0000 UTClast word was $189.99/box plus or minus $5, sold in groups of 3 or 6 ONLY, preorder begins 10 days before release date
2019-05-22 15:45:45 +0000 UTCNo promo card, those are for WPN stores only.
2019-05-22 15:43:57 +0000 UTCNew patreon here, love the videos . My local store is selling them for $300 and another has not event listed a price yet. How much are you going to be selling them for Rudy?
2019-05-22 15:15:26 +0000 UTCYou get the flusterstorm promo from prerelease kits as well, right?
2019-05-22 14:45:27 +0000 UTCThis is a simple formula as is for all "print to demand" runs. (1) The frenzy for "new and powerful" cards leads to the increase of the initial price. As we are seeing right now. (2) The market eventually becomes saturated and we begin to separate the wheat from the chaff (the top dozen cards increase in value while everything stabilizes then starts plummeting in value. (3) More and more product is printed. Repeat step 2. The base price for the booster boxes continues to drop (4) New product is released (the new kid on the block) and interest in Modern Horizon begins to wane further. (5) Eventually the end of the print run is announced. (6) Booster box prices slowly increase over the course of the follow two years.. That being said. Don't panic. Don't overpay.

2019-05-22 14:01:08 +0000 UTCWhere can I find Rudy’s PayPal gmail?
2019-05-22 13:42:43 +0000 UTCEverything through PayPal. He has his PayPal email posted. You send the amount of money with a message of what you want. Wait until he tells you it's good to go or he will return payment.
Jeff Simmers
2019-05-22 12:40:34 +0000 UTCBut how Do we order once avaliable? Once he tells us of course?
Brandon White
2019-05-22 12:03:51 +0000 UTCI’ll sell you one when I buy mine 😜
Ben Magiera
2019-05-22 11:10:11 +0000 UTCHe will send out a message letting everyone know when we can order
2019-05-22 07:08:21 +0000 UTCI'm confused as to how to order from you when modern horizons is released.
Oxcord
2019-05-22 06:17:10 +0000 UTCWrapped tightly in paper, with old ad cards at the front and back, in a padded envelope. They were all in perfect condition.
2019-05-22 02:13:16 +0000 UTCCan someone answer a q for me? If anyone reading this has had Rudy open their boxes on youtube, how were the cards sent? Mythics in top leaders? Etc? Thanks
2019-05-22 00:24:06 +0000 UTCwhat is rudy's Email??
2019-05-22 00:22:00 +0000 UTCThanks for the solid advisement as always.
Smithereens
2019-05-22 00:21:55 +0000 UTCyeah it looks super solid. Also getting a REAL Urza card makes my heart happy.
2019-05-22 00:20:18 +0000 UTCNeed to see how my numbers look but I'll likely do 6, has Rudy put out a solid price yet?
2019-05-21 23:45:29 +0000 UTCHahaha...right...hope Rudy has 6 avail to purchase.
2019-05-21 23:36:15 +0000 UTCProblem is...with wizards these days..no one really knows...this is intentionally done to drive sales at this timeframe. They MAY continue this marketing strategy...they may not. They MAY print the crap out of them or they MAY unexpectedly end printing. Place your bets. 8)
2019-05-21 23:34:05 +0000 UTCNice..wish I would have purchased more then 5 boxes myself...now. 8)
2019-05-21 23:03:02 +0000 UTCNo way I'm not buying at least a case of this awesomeness. Rudy thanks for putting so much transparency in the mtg market.
2019-05-21 22:59:41 +0000 UTCI would not mind buying one, but not 3.
2019-05-21 22:39:25 +0000 UTCThis is going to be a frenzy. Organized play for Q3 2019: 50% or more GP's are modern for the main event
2019-05-21 22:00:49 +0000 UTCWith the “print to demand” will you have the same type of 3 box sales throughout the life cycle of modern horizons much like battlebond or will it be more of a ultimate maszters when they’re gone they’re gone? Or is this too far away to tell? They got this Timmy riding the hype train. Tying to use reason and rational in my purchases.
2019-05-21 21:45:06 +0000 UTCDoes this mean we can place orders now? I always miss the deals :( I really like the 24 notice though that's awesome for people like me with crazy schedules <3
Mr Cya
2019-05-21 20:55:29 +0000 UTCPain lands that replace themselves for cheap. That's the key. I don't think a whole cycle of Horizon Canopies will have nearly the same impact as the enemy Fetchlands did for MM17, but definitely better than the filter lands from M25.
Joseph Fernandes
2019-05-21 20:54:41 +0000 UTCI just watched the Command Zone and they spoiled an Urza legendary creature card that a cEDH card without trying too hard to build.

2019-05-21 20:46:49 +0000 UTCRudy is da man!
Jim Volin
2019-05-21 20:39:49 +0000 UTCI'm not sure why these are that great they remind me of pain lands
2019-05-21 20:32:51 +0000 UTCAll hail Rudy!
2019-05-21 19:47:58 +0000 UTCrudy will post a message when its available. this is just to give us some information
Ivan Fuchs
2019-05-21 19:43:01 +0000 UTCThis is crazy, albeit obnoxious. This is “print to demand” but not the same way Conspiracy 2 was? What if this doesn’t sell? Does the valve shut off and the boxes just retain their value? I’m not entirely against the pricing: I say buy it if one can afford it and if one thinks the price is fine. But it’s difficult for me to wrap my head around this price point on a product that is (in theory) widely available for the next 8-12 months. Anyway, looking forward to any videos that will evaluate this rollercoaster. Especially anything that articulates when one should purchase the product (particularly as a playable set; not necessarily an investable collectible). You the man, Rudy. Thanks for everything, per usual :-)
Stephen Konefal
2019-05-21 19:40:50 +0000 UTCyes
Ivan Fuchs
2019-05-21 19:40:10 +0000 UTCWhen can we order these? I haven't buy any boxes in a while! :)
2019-05-21 19:40:01 +0000 UTCIs Flusterstorm the only buy-a-box promo?
2019-05-21 19:38:46 +0000 UTCPass I'll wait for the madness to die down.
2019-05-21 19:37:11 +0000 UTCAnd we can’t claim these from Rudy until 10 days before release right?
2019-05-21 19:36:15 +0000 UTCYour going to be a very disappointed person i dont have a single distributor in the United states who will sell me anywhere near $160, you may want to buy from that source
Rudy The Magic Guy
2019-05-21 19:35:43 +0000 UTCGiggity.
Jeffrey Ho
2019-05-21 19:32:28 +0000 UTCjust letting you guys know distributors around the country sell boxes between 160-175$ so im hoping rudy will sell them around 180-184.99$ a box.
Ivan Fuchs
2019-05-21 19:31:43 +0000 UTCNow i just need allocation to end on War of the Spark. I need a few packs to open up for myself
2019-05-21 19:30:44 +0000 UTCWell we know when we can pre-order them? I want three:)
2019-05-21 19:30:05 +0000 UTCThat’s right. Don’t worry, Rudy will notify us when we can buy him the set. Stay tuned.
William Arce
2019-05-21 19:28:09 +0000 UTCI bought 2 cases at 179 a box.
2019-05-21 19:25:42 +0000 UTCSorry, new to the Patreon. I'm assuming there will be an upcoming announcement when you'll be ready to take orders of the boxes?
Bryce O'Connor
2019-05-21 19:21:19 +0000 UTCAny idea when we will be able to purchase?
2019-05-21 19:21:11 +0000 UTCglad i picked up a hefty order of these around $180 a box. I had a feeling these would be good, Wizards has a tendency to overdue the first set then continue to get worse over time.
2019-05-21 19:21:02 +0000 UTCI'm glad I got my 6 boxes at 179.99. Time to sit back and watch it grow :). The price I mean.
2019-05-21 19:20:18 +0000 UTCi 100% agree...BUT remember a lot of people like to flip the singles/bxoes at the begining for a profit, thats what creates the frenzy at times
Rudy The Magic Guy
2019-05-21 19:18:20 +0000 UTCwell played John
Rudy The Magic Guy
2019-05-21 19:17:48 +0000 UTCI already picked 2 up for 181 each. Glad I did
Brewski785
2019-05-21 19:17:05 +0000 UTCLol. This is so funny. Everyone will get a box eventually, this isn't a limited set they might keep supply low enough to maintain 200+ a box but they will be available for the rest of the year lol
Michael L
2019-05-21 19:16:00 +0000 UTCAwesome when will we be able to buy them from you. I am thinking 2
Brewski785
2019-05-21 19:15:48 +0000 UTCI promis you i will let you down...lol
Rudy The Magic Guy
2019-05-21 19:15:29 +0000 UTCwell played Austin
Rudy The Magic Guy
2019-05-21 19:15:20 +0000 UTCmost likely yes...which means i could have to limit to 3 boxes per person to share the love
Rudy The Magic Guy
2019-05-21 19:15:14 +0000 UTCthen your going to be very dissappointed
Rudy The Magic Guy
2019-05-21 19:14:17 +0000 UTClol well played
Rudy The Magic Guy
2019-05-21 19:13:59 +0000 UTCprice for opening videos and shipped sealed will be the same mike :-)
Rudy The Magic Guy
2019-05-21 19:13:50 +0000 UTCLooking forward to picking up some cases from you ! Great post.
2019-05-21 19:13:17 +0000 UTCHe is looking at $189/box plus or minus $5 shipped in groups of 3 or 6 only no single boxes.
2019-05-21 19:12:42 +0000 UTCRudy I passed up the boxes at $181.99 shipped to buy from you don’t let me down bro (I want 3).
2019-05-21 19:12:23 +0000 UTCAnd everyone was acting like I was an idiot for getting them so early for 180.
