So I just joined and sent in my first request for Ravnica boxes... how do we know if the request was received? or when it would be shipped out?

interested in this as well!

Hey Rudy any chance you have anymore of the Eternal Masters / Modern Masters left as well as the combo? Thx!

ships within 72 hours of payment normally :-)

Rudy The Magic Guy

yep...check your paypal email address, i gotcha covered sir

Rudy The Magic Guy

Hey Michael, send me a private message, i still have patrons buying FoW every month, but i dont have it on the magic sale list :-)

Rudy The Magic Guy

where are all the Force of Will deals, I love those cards. don't play the game but I am in love with the art and flavor.

Michael L

Just became a patreon at $15, sad to have missed out on moderns deals! Maybe in May!

Placed my first order, w00t! My boxes were shipped a lot faster than I thought they would, thanks Rudy!

Hey Rudy! I decided to give you my shekels because you are a cool dude. I paid for a Core 2019 earlier and got the confirmation. Will I receive an email once the box ships? Also I used to work for USPS and I feel your pain when you receive poorly packaged boxes. We at the plant have to throw practically everything to stay on time. You rock.

Total noob question... How long does it take to receive a box after purchase?

Mario

an automated tracking email will be sent to the paypal email addres within 72 hours of the order placement :-)

Rudy The Magic Guy

Hello! new Patreon here. I placed an order for some Ravnica Allegiance Booster boxes, but have not seen any email to confirm or deny processing of my order or delivery. Is there something I should be looking out for in my email?

Got my box without any problems. Thanks for the great service.

Black Jack

i will be on the navy base tomorow sir, sorry for my schedule and time, it is best to keep things streamlined on my end :-)

Rudy The Magic Guy

Rudy, I live locally in Jax. Can I pick up a box of Ravnica Alliegance from you on Friday (tomorrow)? Can pay in person or via paypal.

Hey Rudy, did want to say while I am sad how the masters deal worked out; I'm still glad to be a patron and love the continued deals on standard sets. Definitely going to be buying up extra War once you have it up for patrons in a couple months.

If it is over 6 boxes then yes :-)

Rudy The Magic Guy

does seperate payments for each case mean for the different sets?

@rudy I had to take a few months off supporting you on Patreon (Had some major medical bills come up that had to take priority). Keep up the good work.

Greg Elliot

Hey Chris,

Rudy The Magic Guy

I'm not sure any amount of money could fix a situation like that hahaha. Of course he has the right to sell for whatever he wants. That being said, he stated a different price then what is offered. My point is that that is wrong. Straight up bad business.

LOL - you beat me to it :-)

Mark Steele

Is it possible to get the combo deal for 2 boxes of modern masters 15 instead of the mm 15/eternal masters?

Heya Rudy, Just watched the Timmynomics video. I just thought I'd let you know... it's OK. You can offer me madlad cheap prices on stuff and I won't get pissed off and cancel in a huff

Andrew Shelansky

I hope you aren't talking out your ass. I would think you may need to spend your cash on an operation instead of mtg If that were the case. Lol. I saw all the data as well and I agree that it is not 50 below. However I believe that he has the right as the distributor to not lose tons of loot. I know I'm not in the habit of handing out free meals in what could amount to thousands of dollars. I'm done posting on this. Happy gaming..

I'd have to disagree lol. In non of the comparisons did the seller offer their product at lower then amazon or ebay's prices. There also isnt just one person upset. And noones screaming or being an immature jerk lol in this case it was promised at a lower price and not given lol

The video on "Timmy'nomics" kinda correlates here.. Rudy is great, pouty box cost Timmy is not.

Rudy, I just watched your Timmy economics video and now I’m enraged! You see, I was watching it and thinking about the masters pricing and then I remembered I left my cell phone in the truck. I just went and grabbed it so I’m fine now.

Thank you Rudy! I am just waiting for the paycheck to come in! <3

Maybe I missed the point of becoming a patron here, but I thought it was because we like Rudy's channel. I enjoy his content regularly, so decided to support his continued growth. Any deal on a booster box is just a nice bonus imho. I'm saddened by the amount of entitlement I see in this thread.

Guess I don’t pay enough attention

Not usually.

Is it like this every month? I'm not complaining - just wondering if there are always some folks that are unhappy with the selection / prices? I, for one, am ecstatic to be getting started investing / collecting.

Mark Steele

Sadly going to pass, was hoping for a bit better of a deal. But seems the delays on the deals and the box prices going up kinda spoiled this one for me. Maybe next time.

This thread is like a good salt-lick.

Lmao

Maybe a write in ballot and you can add the Transformers TCG to next month's sale list to appease the angry masses :)

lol...the end is near

Rudy The Magic Guy

um he literally says below hes not out of ix/rix, hes just keeping them

Rudy, new video title suggestion in light of the literally dozens of angry people who voted for an option they don't like: Creepy Rudy GETS CAUGHT SCAMMING millions of patrons and LOSES ALL SUBS.

The selection is smaller because the amount of boxes in standard that are available are small.

you can get that on ebay all day long

it seems every month the selection gets smaller, and now the "special of the month" is significantly higher than market price (ebay alone is beating you by a wide margin, not to mention ebay bucks) and now having to wait 60 days for new sets....

Listen, I appreciate Rudy, his videos and the business he is running, but let's not kid ourselves. He doesn't make videos for our entertainment. He makes money off of making these videos. He's not being altruistic about this. He is being a savvy businessman, which I respect. He can charge 400 a booster box because he knows a good handful of people will pay it. As I told Rudy when I first joined, this is symbiotic relationship. WE (patrons) exist for Rudy just as much as he exists for us. In the end, for the most part, we all walk away happy (some months more than others ;)

@Rudy, thanks for the increase in youtube content. Been thoroughly enjoying vicarious box openings. Might do the combo later this month but got a few standard boxes in the mean time. Thank you sir.

Long time patron, can't help but feel slighted here :( Here's to the next month/product I suppose. Hopefully this won't become a trend 🤔 I have faith that our feedback will be received, though.

Orion Haler

So everyone should bend over and just ignore the promised 50 under ebay?

Either way it's not 50 dollars below average ebay price. So either way some of us feel deceived. Point blank.

I wish the Eternal Masters / masters 2015 where $350 a box with out doing the bundle.

Listen I know y'all were thinking that you were going to get $250 boxes, when you voted, but like Rudy said if you don't like his price buy elsewhere. Please stop complaining because the price isn't going to change. Buy your insanely cheap 79.99 boxes and be happy that his patron program even exists and offers us the ability to buy boxes cheaper than what most LGS get from distributors.

The deal is the combo. Here are some factors advantages for buying from Rudy: 1) Its Rudy. Fast turnaround, free shipping, less risk your box came from someone’s closet or worse yet, has been repacked. Rudy is pulling them from pallets and sealed cases. 2) One seller, you know, who has a lot of people to answer to after the fact. 3) These boxes are out of print and have been for a while. He is taking on quite a bit of risk locking in a price on these. Much different than a recent $79.99 in print box. 4) You may see individual auctions cheaper but there is added risk to factor in with those. 5) $350 a box on the combo deal is a solid deal on these out of print booster boxes. That is my opinion. 6) You don’t need to buy them, and you still get great content to watch.

John Eicher

Do you get a price discount for letting Rudy open on the Tube of You?

some deals are better than others.. ill gladly wait for the core box bundles .... im not a big masters set person. ..ill save up for a better deal that fits me.

PS Can I request a plains?

Rise up!

Hey Rudy first time patron here and I had a question about my sign up. When I joined it was on my phone and it froze when I was picking my option of recieving the signed land or not. I want the signed land to pimp out my deck and I'm worried I accidentally clicked the no rewards option. Is there anyway to check this? Thanks for all the awesome vids and getting me back into the game!

To err is human, so I'll give Rudy the benefit of the doubt here. Hopefully he'll listen to the community.

the price is bad rudy. please listen to you patreon. I thought I could snatch some box for 300 each but them being 350 and 400. I might just pass.

Joey Nguyen

I have considered it, but legally, i would not be able to. There is a lot of behind the scenes regulation that would prevent me.

Rudy The Magic Guy

I politely disagree that these are $50 off eBay averages, or I disagree with the way that the average was calculated.

But in the end...it doesn’t even matter

Jim Volin

Ever consider opening a location in Canada to be able to order from our Distributors too and get some cheap stuff (not only cause of the CAD$ but the slow reaction from the Distributors to change their prices). Normally, you say a product has gone up in price and it takes at least 3-4 days for them to adjust and I get some good deal sometimes (like Conspiracy Take the Crown @129$ CAD before they gone crazy and Battlebond @129$CAD). Let me know, I'd be willing to help you out with this issue and being able to get stuff for Canada without wondering how much it will cost (due to currency changes) and when I'll get it (with customs and delivery). Continue your great work I LOVE IT! :)

Its alot nore then an extra 5. 100 more a box individually 50 more a box with the bundle. Especially when you look at sold listings. If an Ema box has 5 sales in the last week for ~300 dollars. That's the ebay price. That's what the market is.

🤷‍♂️

Between eBay and TCG, after I factored in shipping the cheapest I could find the combo was $695 - and that's coming from two different vendors (albeit with great track records), so twice the chance of shipping and fulfillment problems etc. A lot of these under-priced eBay boxes have $20-$25 shipping fees so watch out. Aren't Rudy's video's worth the extra $5? That's probably less than the ad revenue I owe Rudy for using an ad blocker etc.

So I know alot of people are complaining and I'm with you Rudy if you can buy it somewhere else for less do it. I however am curious about just the Modern Masters 2015 pricing eBay and TCG are both much cheaper ~350. Why is this?

M

Hahahaha...I tried so Hard...and got so far...

whenever you send a paypal payment Joseph you can select what address you want to attach with the payment...any USA address is fine :_)

Rudy The Magic Guy

a lot of boxes are selling, so i respectfully disagree with the majority of everyone being unhappy. ALthough in the end, it doesnt matter, i will offer all the specials in the coming months

Rudy The Magic Guy

I knew MM15 and EM boxes where not gonna be super cheap so I voted wisely. unfortunately the Creepy Rudy combo did not win. I wonder how many people wishes they voted for that creepy combo now.

Is this the April fools thing or is there something I am missing?

Then i wouldnt buy form me, sorry to hear of the disappointment

Rudy The Magic Guy

The bundled MM prices doesn't feel that great, and the $400 stand alone is just bad. :(

I'll snag some Ravnica Alliegence instead :)

Grey Shirt Guy

Agree on the eternal/mm being high. Was looking forward to it but can get alot cheaper on ebay.

Sent u a request for box opening a couple times rudy.

First ever buy completed.

Mark Steele

See the YT video from today. The Eternal Masters and MM15 boxes are eBay prices individually but about $100 off as a combo purchase.

I'm confused(I'm not commenting to be a dick I swear.) But arent the ema and mm15 supposed to be 50 BELOW Ebay prices?

Is this an April Fools thing?

700 for both = Eternal Master for 400 MM15 for 300

Monthly buy is completed!!

Coldest1

MM 2015 is 340 on TCG? What am I missing besides it being April 1st lol

Hey Rudy, am I able to buy boxes from you through PayPal (and from Canada) even though I can only afford the $5 Patron tier?

next week :-)

Rudy The Magic Guy

nope...only the standard 79.99 items do :-)

Rudy The Magic Guy

Challenger decks :o ?

Does the combo count toward our overall limit? (As a $15 Patron, could I buy one EM/MM combo and also a case of, say, RNA?

Andrew Shelansky

Me too!

I would had invested in the creepy rudy combo oh well :(
