December 2018 - Mid month Updates
Added 2018-12-17 01:44:20 +0000 UTCWell...this year flew by. I hope everyone is enjoying the TONS of content being pumped out right now. I am eternally grateful for all the support and you all allowing me to devote all my time to filming and discussing different financial topics. I feel storytime videos and generic financial videos have been lacking lately and i will work on that.
I am only getting about 4-6 boxes of ultimate masters in stock everey couple days and i am using these boxes for box openings for international patrons and some others who missed out. I personally believe wizards WILL do a 2nd run, the box prices are very high and the market wants it. And hopefully it is a lot of boxes so I can actually sell a lot more :-/
Janurary 1st 2019, i will have the infamous Pre-release kits variety pack launching. It should contain 12 pre-release kits from about 7 previous kits. $299.99shipped? not sure yet
Future specials over the next 6 months include the following variety kits (1 per month)
No particular order
Janurary 2019 - Pre-Release Kit - CONFIRMED
Core set variety M12/M13/M14/M15/M16(origins) / M19
Eternal Masters/MM2015 2 pack
COnspiracy 1 / Conspiracy 2 / Battlebond (summer set 3 pack)
That is about it. If anyone has any questions i will respond to them all below within 48 hours of this posting
thanks again
-Rudy :-)

Hmm feeling a little silly. Trying to understand how the levels affect the purchase. Rookie here. So based on your length of supporting you get a discount on the mystery box or it just qualifies you to purchase. Thank you Rudy for the videos and all you do. I have watched a ton of mtg you tubers and your on screen charisma beats them all not to mention you are living a dream for many of us. I know you work your ass off to live it though.

2019-01-28 23:51:53 +0000 UTCI think 200-300 range is the highest it will ever go...before something gets reprinted in the future. It is a cool unique product, but will not have a lot of future growth :-)

2018-12-25 13:40:08 +0000 UTCDecember greetings, Merry Christmas, Festivus, or the celebration of your choice to everyone in 'THE COMMUNITY'. We are all fortunate, be good to each other and remember to be happy we found the unique creator (small c) Rudy for his fun videos, interesting dementia, and on point market observations. To the Pro's and all the Timmy's, Happy New Year.

2018-12-24 22:23:33 +0000 UTCHey Rudy I was also wondering what do you think of the duel decks anthology boxes? I bought one for 100 and its up to 200 now should I try to sell it or hang onto it a bit longer? Thanks for putting out so many videos. Gramps and I love watching them and its really helped distract us from some of the tougher things that are going on in our life and gave us something to bond over. Really apreciate all you do.
2018-12-24 19:03:37 +0000 UTCI work 12 hour days...and i thrive on the challenge and passion of the business :-) it doesnt feel like work most of the time. Yes i have certain locations setup for longer term storage that is secure :-)
Rudy The Magic Guy
2018-12-21 16:42:58 +0000 UTCHow the hell do you find the time to do everything you do? :) All those orders, sorting, buying collections, cateloging for the business, videos, answering fan mail and running a store, selling online and shipping orders. Thank you for the response. I have some questions for the next QA video. Do take special steps to store booster boxes if you have a personal collect for the long term? Do have anyone help you with store activities? Does it makes sense to collect common and uncommons of Beta, Antiquities, legends that are BGS 9.0? Will they gain value long term?
John Eicher
2018-12-21 05:42:25 +0000 UTCHey John, welcome sir...that answer is going to be determined if they do a 2nd print run. As or right now. They have not announced anything, if it comes the singel prices will drop again
Rudy The Magic Guy
2018-12-21 04:30:52 +0000 UTCNew Patron here. Thank you Rudy for all the shit you do. If I may piggy back on the Ultimate Masters question... I cracked 4 boxes cause it was too much fun. Should I be selling the rares and singles now or sit on them? I expect the box toppers to go up OR will interest fade? Thank you!!
John Eicher
2018-12-20 03:07:32 +0000 UTCthats tough...there are some very expensive prerelease kits from years ago that people collect...even now many of the new kits have already increased to 30-50 each
Rudy The Magic Guy
2018-12-18 16:11:20 +0000 UTCThe second part to that would be to sit on or to crack?
Dana Gellately
2018-12-18 14:54:58 +0000 UTCHey Rudy what is the max price you would consider buying ultimate masters booster boxes for? Do you think 300 is to much to pay?
2018-12-18 06:25:20 +0000 UTCStoked for some prerelease kits!
2018-12-18 00:44:06 +0000 UTCHey rudy what do you think about the prerelease kits? Any value? Keep em or open em for the rares?
2018-12-17 17:21:45 +0000 UTCyes, i do believe it will be printed in japan again...i also do beleive it will be in either Janurary or randomly 6 months from now
Rudy The Magic Guy
2018-12-17 15:05:13 +0000 UTCim a conservative guy....i dont do anything risky or special lol....you probably wont get the notification until the end of the day or maybe even Jan 2nd...historically websites have problems/updates on new years morning
Rudy The Magic Guy
2018-12-17 15:04:46 +0000 UTClol...i do know for a fact that they watch the videos...i do NOT believe it influences them though lol
Rudy The Magic Guy
2018-12-17 15:03:59 +0000 UTClol...as long as the market keeps asking for the opening videos, i will deliver lol...of course i will mix with other videos :-)
Rudy The Magic Guy
2018-12-17 15:03:37 +0000 UTCPretty sure Rudy is done offering release day products since he can't always get enough to make everyone happy and people end up butt hurt. It will be something like 30-60 days after release that he offers up new products.
2018-12-17 12:20:29 +0000 UTChey Rudy.. been watching you for a while now.. new to this side of things.. when will you have ravnica allegiance case ready for us? enjoy the video.. glad to be apart of the patreop now :D
2018-12-17 11:33:39 +0000 UTCWhen would you estimate they would release a second print run - based on Wizard's history of releasing second runs? Do you think they will be printed in Japan again?
2018-12-17 05:30:38 +0000 UTC"What are doing for the new year?" "Waiting at my phone to get the notification to order a bunch of PreRelease kits." "Anything else?" "Deciding if I should buy Masters 2017 or more Ultimate Masters."
Grey Shirt Guy
2018-12-17 04:58:21 +0000 UTCWait Rudy - did you do that video so Wotc would do a second print run? They watch your videos. You know they do.
Jonathan S
2018-12-17 04:20:11 +0000 UTCRudy, do you have any plans for anything cool in the near future? Also no more Ultimate masters box openings, watching the value is killing me since I got a Goryo's vengeance in my box topper and not many good pulls except my mythics with a bitterblossom, mana vault, and leovold
2018-12-17 03:30:47 +0000 UTCI just read this and I think I started to drool when I got to the end.
2018-12-17 02:45:22 +0000 UTCPrint runs are massive. People are hoarding boxes. I will be shocked if there is no second print run. The secondary market is getting crushed and Wotc will crush it further. I still don't trust modern cards.
Jonathan S
2018-12-17 02:35:06 +0000 UTCI'll be patient for the pre release kit sale

2018-12-17 02:06:59 +0000 UTCThanks for the update Rudy. Happy to be a patreon.
2018-12-17 02:05:28 +0000 UTCI have actually tried some testing to start a video by falling....but i havent quite made it look right yet lol
Rudy The Magic Guy
2018-12-17 01:56:38 +0000 UTCRudy, I wish I found you earlier so I could have been supporting you for longer. Just waiting for the video when you open it by descending from the ceiling. Thanks for the update and continuous content!
2018-12-17 01:55:18 +0000 UTCI know.... the husband plays and the wife has just gotten into collecting lol they are working on a gas pipeline here in Texas and MTG is the one thing they’re spending ‘extra’ money on.
2018-12-17 01:52:15 +0000 UTCYou can buy Kaladesh from me, but at this point, i only offer about 5.00 off per box on that item. your friend is about 6 months late. I had kaladesh on the patron 79.99 list for about a year lol
Rudy The Magic Guy
2018-12-17 01:50:05 +0000 UTCmost vareity kits are sealed booster boxes :-)
Rudy The Magic Guy
2018-12-17 01:49:24 +0000 UTCIf a 2nd print run shows up i think a 10-20% box price drop which would take 3 months to receover
Rudy The Magic Guy
2018-12-17 01:48:58 +0000 UTCAny ideas on Kaladesh boxes? I have a customer who is looking for 2 cases 🤦♀️ I don’t know where to point them
2018-12-17 01:48:58 +0000 UTCSounds great. You are always worth supporting!
Jeffery Manzanares
2018-12-17 01:48:04 +0000 UTCThis may strain your ability to predict the future, but... What do you think a 2d print run will do to the prices of UMA boxes? I am sitting on a case, and can do so for a year or two if need be.
Robert Magee
2018-12-17 01:47:22 +0000 UTCRudy! Thanks for the update I’m so stoked I am a patron now!! Love it! Your faithful Northeast Timmy!!
2018-12-17 01:47:08 +0000 UTCWhat exactly do you plan to include in the variety sets? Are they entire boxes, packs, etc?
