Please Reply - Seeking interest on Iconic/Masters25

Hey Everyone,


So Iconic Masters and Masters 25 is now SOLD OUT at 4 out of 5 distributors nationwide.

I also noticed on ebay Masters 25 boxes are now over 150.00+ each

I also noticed Iconic is now pushing 140.00+ on ebay and slowly climbing


I am negotiating with the last distributor to try and get the remaining pallets of the masters boxes.


Are there still a lot of people that want these boxes if i sell them in 2 packs for the same 139.99 per box? (139.99 x 2 boxes = 279.98shipped)


This would be my last chance and the patrons last chance at getting some cheaply. The market has finally dried up and is upticking now. I expect these boxes to drift towards to 200.00 each over the next 12 months


I currently do not have any left in stock.


Sooo...what do we all think? go for it? pass...no one cares? ehhh...either way?

Comments

Do it. I wants them.

Were you able to buy some Iconic boxes, Rudy?

Wphlfry

I'm in

I would buy the max.

I'd buy a couple

I’m interested in a couple of boxes

I would be interested in both sets, 1 pack of each maybe 2 packs of each

I would be interested in a couple boxes of Iconic

sorry i will not be going below 139 like i did in the past. At this point and with them finally being sold out at the distributor level, i would rather keep the boxes below that price :-)

Rudy The Magic Guy

Rudy, I continue to support you if I buy or not each month but I would buy at least 2 boxes of this in coming updates.

Brett McPherson

Massdrop has M25 for $139 shipped now. I'm interested, as long as you can beat the going rate.

I would take a set of two

Count me in

Go for it I want a couple boxes still

So Rudy what's the verdict - enough interest??

Dana Gellately

I just signed up as a patrons, but would be interested.

I'd be interested in Iconic

I'll buy 1 two pack

Would rather get more GRN than either of those Masters sets. I got burned on M25.

I currently have two cases that I acquired for 152.53 and I'm not sure I'll ever make a single dollar on that crap set. I'll defend my statement with numbers, the EV is pretty bad on the mythic level. Only 6 are currently over the MSRP of a pack at $10, they are entirely driven by Modern playability (and some being targeted towards legacy), with very little use in EDH, with Jace being the big hitter. This really hurts the set I feel the most compared to Battlebond or even more of the EDH focused sets which tend to hold slower but constant yearly price increases. The rares are a bit better with 14 being in the +$5 range, but no one really plays port and blood moon has now had a million reprintings saturating the market . Most of the rares do not strike me as teir 1 competitive rares, but there are some usable EDH cards that have high playability that lost over 50% value. The worst things is the uncommons which you expect to fill the EV out, only the top 6 have any real playability, but only 4 see any sort of actual play and 1 is lighting bolt. There is very little if any growth of these cards I feel. Obviously the foils of these cards have a decent EV, but disregarding the crap quality of foils, if you hit anything other than these 24 cards you are totally boned. The commons are a total joke as well with essentially no $ there, with an EV of $100 at TCG low there is not much arbitrage to entice the foil gamblers on this set outside of Jace. I don't personally see the $140 price range being worth it and I'm super afraid of the value. That being said, I hope you can move the set to anyone and everyone to prove me wrong, but I will pass on this.

id be interested

I'd be in for at least 1 two-pack.

Justin Kimball

Interested in a 2 pack.

I'm for sure interested

id take a case or two

Dana Gellately

Not really interested

I'm not interested at this time but if you can get them at a decent price I'd say for yourself to get all you can

Not personally interested.

interestd

Interested

I'd like some

I'll bite on a few

Francis

i'd get 25 pass on the iconic

Kalack

I'd buy

yes, there would be enough for everyone

Rudy The Magic Guy

Would probably skip. Have all the Iconic and M25 that I need for now.

I'd pass. This mostly a personal thing as I have most, if not all, of the cards in both sets already in their original form. Since EDH and limited are my preferred forms of magic these days, I can't justify the price. Maybe that's me just being short sighted timmy but none of those cards are reserve list... clearly.

I'd buy it at that price

interested

Im game for some masters!

interested

AkaiSenkou

I tell ya, My taco is pretty stale at the prospect. Doesn't really do anything for me. Masters has been so blah lately. I feel like the rising prices dont have long term impact. But I'm just a stupid timmy, so what do I know.

Patrick Salisbury

I most likely would buy at that price.

I'd definitely be interested. Do it!

Haven

I’m in for Masters 25. :)

Kevin Keyser

I'd be interested, but probably nkt buy this time around due to budget, but i definitely love that you are keeping an eye out for patrons on stock you know is disappearing and would buy with this kind of deal in the future.

MTG Pack A Day

I’d be interested

I say go for it.

I'll grab a couple.

Felixxx9

No interest here.

Definite interest here

Shaina Zevallos

Force of will player so I have no say :p

Either wya

I could do one or two of each for sure. I would be more interested in Battlebond or an M17 even if it cost a lot more.

Timothy Harms

I would do M25

John Wan

I would do one of each.

I’m interested also

Gets a bit on an "eh" from me, probably because I've opened so much IMA at this point. Still seems like a solid deal, I'm sure it will sell.

Kyle M Childress

I wold definitly be interested in obtaining these boxes

Michael Tran

Good Evening Rudy, My response would be that although I have already purchased a large amount of Iconic Masters since its release, it is the only set that is getting low on as far as my chaos drafting goes. I do still have 2 unopened boxes of Masters 25. I am most certainly looking forward to the upcoming core sets, other master sets, and cons/BB set. With that said, I'd prob. only purchase another two boxes of Iconic Masters just to keep make sure the Chaos pool didn't get depleted of the Master sets as long as possible. Thank you Rudy

Red Comet

I will be interested at that price.

PizzaPasta

Would that be 1xiconic and 1xm25 or 2x one or the other? I bought 2xM25 when you first had it and got hosed on the box I opened. The box literally told me to kill myself(triskaidekaphobia and then tree of redemption in the next pack)

Jon M

Yes. Masters 25.

Yup get the pallet 😬

I'd be interested

I would be interested in some iconic first and probably some masters as well

I would totally go for that.

I am interested, seems sweet

I'm interested in Iconic.

Definitely interested go for it

I will admit though that the idea of Eternal Masters or any of the other Masters sets interest me more.

I'd go for it

I would be interested, but timing is everything.

It is rare that I'm not interested in what Rudy is selling....I just wish he'd send some Tacos with orders....that being said sure Iconic has better cards then people give it credit for and Masters 25 is...well its ok too.

I would buy both

Darius Hambleton

I'd be interested in some Masters 25 and maybe iconic. I wound up opening a number of the iconic masters boxes I had and was able to get some solid value out of them. I wouldn't mind having a few masters 25 boxes to sit on though.

I'd buy some as well. Might draft one too 😎

James W Tisdale

I think that would be great .

I'd buy Masters 25.

I have interest, especially in masters 25

I would be interested in some masters 25 for sure.

Yes please

Albert Ian

At the very least buy for the turnaround. You know you were gonna anyway. XD

I am also interested.

I'd be happy to buy a few more. I've been having good luck with them.

NightTimeCollector

interested

I'll pass, cracked plenty of both and still have sealed boxes for later. A sealed box of Torment though, looking for that.

Grey Shirt Guy

I like the idea, but I'd probably wait for a 10% eBay bucks sale and get them for cheaper

no interest tbh. eternal masters or 2015/17 yes

I'd be down.

I am very interested

Yes, I am also very interested.

I am very interested

Pass

Mae Adeline

I would consider a case of each

Meh

I'm not interested in either. These sets were not done well. I don't know if their reception affected print numbers, but eh.

Gojira

go for it

Robert Jorgenson

do it

Hmm... I may be interested. They haven't particularly been a good set for me, but maybe I'd give it one last shot.

I'm interested in one of each.

I'm interested

Kenny Mak

I’ll take 2

I’ll take a couple cases each

Coldest1

Depending on timing of it, I would be interested.

Git em

Do it Rude Dude

Swahealeyman

Id be intrested in 2 or so

PKKite

I'm in.

I'd go for it

Can I put my order in now?😁

Beaker

Count me in for at least 2 maybe 4.

Rover Boy

I’d def pick up one of each.

Zainker

yes please, i haven't gotten anything in over 10 months :)

YES YEA YES YES!!! I would take (at least) 2 boxes of each! If not 4 of Masters 25!

Stephen Konefal

In the words of Beck, "Hell yes."

I would like 2 boxes

I’d be down for a few cases.

Jonathan Yee

I'd be interested

kyle walz

I'd be interested

Yeah would be interested.

Tim Kleist

not interested in magic anymore. LGS near here suddenly lost 10-20 people and the only events that even happen are maybe EDH, standard is also dead. People are finally fed up by all the lies?

I would only want a single box of Iconic masters

I'd be interested.

I would get m25, I bust myself on Iconic and still have singles leftover from it

Avery Martin

I'm interested

Eric Vasilevsky

I’m down

I would buy 2 boxes

Im down to speculate on this

I would be interested in a box of each as well.

Quintin Ang

Will buy 2 boxes of A25. Think it'll be a really good thing (long term) once distributors have no stock.

Martin Morford

Id like both!

Roger Lee

I’d like to get 2 boxes of each if possible

God speaks, I agree

I'm split on this. On one side I wouldn't mind 2 boxes of each but on the other hand I'm not sure I would want to divert funds from other items I'm wanting.

Mark Aparicio

lol....i think you might be addicted...

Rudy The Magic Guy

correct, and the pre-release special will be a massive hit and is still a little while off, while i accumulate more kits :-)

Rudy The Magic Guy

Correct, there will be other specials throughout the holidays :-)

Rudy The Magic Guy

I'd be in for this too.

I personally have been fairly disappointed with both Iconic and M25. All things being equal, the "Pre-release Through Time Extravaganza" is a higher priority subjectively and financially. You're doing God's work Rudy.

Lol seems like alot of people are in on this deal

All in

Would that be one of each, Iconic Masters and Masters 25, for 279.98?

Im on the fence. theres other stuff I think Id rather have but Id be lying if I said I didnt want a couple boxes of iconic.

I’m in

I would buy 2 boxes of iconic and 2 of m25.

I’m in

Darek Szylman

I would be in for one box each or even 2 boxes masters 25.

Would $10 to $15 patrons even get any?

I would be interested.

Greg Elliot

I would be in, still needed to pick up Masters 25 for my stash.

I’d be interested in some Iconic boxes

Israel Solis

YES!!! i will buy as many boxes as you allowed for $10 level!!!!

Liwen Li

I'd be very interested at $140 a box for 2 in a month or so. I just ran out and they're great draft sets for what that's worth. Thanks for reaching out.

Austin Schafer

Yea I'd grab a 2 pack for some Christmas drafting.

GeneralJelly

I'm interested

Good here

Tony

I would buy, but just 1 set of 2 not going crazy deep

Interested

I'm interested

Take my money. This would a deal for one of each, correct?

I'd be interested in November December

Scott Anderson

Well......🙈🙈🤤🤤 Probably

I think I am at Ehh...; I am more interested in some of the variety packs you have talked about. That said, I still might pick up two boxes of each as an investment.

Robert Magee

Kinda stepping back from MTG these days and mainly interested in Force of Will product. <3

Sure, I’m interested.

Justin Anthony

I'm passing. Would like that next box of final fantasy , or yugioh boxes

Dave Huffy

I'd probably be in for a two pack of M25.

William Arce

If they're a combo at a good price, I might get another box of each.
