It's all goods and services.

HeavyRice

Hi, im new here. Im mostly here for Poke Your Mom but do you take FF or G&S when doing Paypal?

Kinwah Wong

You should as long as before the end of this month

Philip Chiu

Will military Veterans be able to buy early this Friday for High Seas promo? I know that the GemKeeper discount won't apply, but I'd like to buy early if possible. Thanks

Kurt Jacobs

Can I still order MTG boxes for May even if I just joined today?

John Cavanaugh

Based on how limited the Warhammer collector edition was, most likely regular version.

Joshua Halstead

You can direct dm his at the top right with message creator. Just send one and wait as spamming reset you in the queue. I’m sorry to hear that and hope they fix it.

Joshua Halstead

USPS takes like 2-3 days to update it. I tend to get my order in Massachusetts about 7-10 days from tracking.

Chris G

Does anyone know how long it takes from the time of getting tracking info to the time of it actually shipping out? Trying to plan around travels and want to know who will be there to accept package!

Benito Mendoza

First Order super excited for the boxes .

Dillon Baumes

The ff commander that is listed for the 5th, is that the regular or the premium version?

Alex Fielder

Is there a way for me to message Rudy? I sent in some cards to PCG and somehow they got scanned in in Puerto Rico

thomas w

How often do you sell hololive

Adam Binette

came here for FaB and this is my first round. Just read the email that the High Seas release is getting limited to two cases and not 4. Saddening :,(

Crypto elf of Rivendell

Ill take a couple of those life lesson from the past packs:p

Justin reed

1 max order please

Julien Idais

I was still uncertain about the SEA sale with the promo card being so cool, but damn an Alpha deal ? I can only afford one…

Kinwah Wong

Not really unless it sells at close to retail price.

ffmobius2b

Everyone hyped for Sunday Night Special - Poke - Destined Rivals ETB Cases today?

LeeHur Shing

How do I change my Patreon email? I found out it doesn't match my Paypal but I can't seem to switch it. It sends a "will send verification to change" notification but I never got that in either of my inboxes/spam. What do I do?

Joshua Halstead

We will get a patron post in like 45 mins listing the price and tonight

Joshua Halstead

He will make a post at 9pm listing the price to send.

jacob morey

hey Rudy how do i know what the price will be on destine rivals booster boxes ? do i just private message you ?

matthew larson

New here. Where do you actually do the sales at? I haven’t seen where. Just wondering.

Premier Pulls

No, don't worry about it. Go watch TGIF on ABC instead :D

ffmobius2b

im not into pokemon but should i get into it now because of this "Friday Night Special - Poke - Destined Rivals Booster Boxes?"

Premier Pulls

I don't have enough tacos to hold me over until DR boxes tonight :(

KAI HICKS

Happy Destined Rivals day, give the person sitting next to you a mouth hug

Clayton

Nevermind, just recieved shipping confirmation after posting lol. Thanks!

Clayton

Goodmorning all. New patreon here, and placed my order a few days ago. Are we supposed to get an order confirmation or anything saying your order has shipped for the cheap boxes? Just trying to ensure I did everything correctly.

Joshua Halstead

Nah you can buy from 1-6 boxes from the list per month. We get to participate in all the other sales monthly.

B. A.

Do special buys count as "Cheap magic" for the month, asking for a friend :P

Kiel Goodenow

Yes word was dropped yesterday

Rudy The Magic Guy

Im hoping we get play box restocks eveery couple months for the 2 years

Rudy The Magic Guy

Ms. Lisa understands how bad the Canada pricing is for the CCG world :-/

Rudy The Magic Guy

Simplicity, send a payment and add a note, you get 1 order per month for the cheap monthly magic boxes on the list....and you can particiapte in as many sale posts as you want

Rudy The Magic Guy

At this point in time, i dont expect it to ever happen....Play boxes are sold out nationwide at disstribution, so most likely, we get a reprint/restock everyu 3-4 months...and thats it. I hope im wrong.

matthew missimer

Hey Rudy do you know when you plan on adding the final fantasy boxes to the cheap magic list after release? I want to order just a couple so the case sale is a bit much for me.

Alexander Reed

First timer, sent it to your mobile pay pal @, thanks :)

Bo Bui

New here, how do I actually order when something is dropped? Just do a Paypal payment with a note or something?

Leonard Hill

Just sent my first request for a Bloomburrow box via paypal. Hope all goes well, let's goooo Mr. Rudy!

Lisa Marie January

It can be $100 to deliver and this price still just undercuts current sold out prices here in Toronto.

Jason Benson

Final fantasy will be standard legal for 3 years. Curious how many will but in on release vs over the next 3 years when I scoop them up…

Matt Guedon

Sent in first request, 1 bloomburrow box. My paypal and patreon emails are different, so I put my my name and patreon email in the notes box as well. Hope that's all correct on how this works!

B. A.

At least Tarkir is relatively cheap, while Bloomborrow will almost never be this price again

Joshua Halstead

I think you can just add your card into your profile on Patreon.

Joshua

Rudy, thank you for all that you do. Great pricing and informative videos.

Samuel Taylor

Anyone know how to change your billing method from Apple to direct without cancelling your membership?

Steve A

Also curious about this.

Wade Putensen

Haha. I wait to order my tarkir so I could maybe get bloomburrow with it and now that I can get bloomburrow no tarkir. You win some you lose some.

Soraxiii

i saw those prismatic spc cases in ur new video

Robert Mackey

I remember Rudy in a recent video saying something about a Wilds Of Eldraine Set reprint but can’t find the timeline for when that was coming? Was it the fall or sooner?

alex

Praying for some FaB High seas. Had all my preorders cancelled by other stores due to “Allocation cuts”

ffmobius2b

im hoping if we get enough allocation of FF play booster boxes at this point, been hearing a lot from different content creator that the "promised" amount was reduced or they just get ghosted by the distributor. Kinda sketchy stuff by wotc or distributors or might be just rotten tacos.

Joshua Halstead

I’m hoping for a case of final fantasy under 1050-1100.

ffmobius2b

Whats the Timmy community up to? any interesting tcg pre-orders around the corner?

nicholas musselman

Is there word if the Bloomburrow restock is available to order for the monthly patreons yet?

Stri

if this is that Prismatic Super Premium box for Friday drop...

Steve Lent

Friday night special. What we thinking?

ffmobius2b

Yeah, lego investments theme.

Daniel Grady

wake up new rudy video just dropped

ffmobius2b

There was 1 time i didnt get a tracking but my package still arrived.

Tyler

How are we feeling about 2X2 Collector boxes in 2025?

Jesus Lomeli

Hey everyone! Has anyone else received tracking for paldea evolved? I’ve checked my inbox/spam but haven’t received anything yet. Not sure if maybe there was any delays. Thanks!

Jeremy G

Any chance we can get 2 tarkir play in june?

Chris Nguyen

Just sent an order for 1 tarkir and 1 foundations. Thanks Rudy! :)

D4RK

Hi all... been a long time watcher figured it was time to invest hopefully can catch some sales.

Kiel Goodenow

If it's a surprise it's not announced until the sale goes live. Usually around 9 PM EST

Ehsan

Hi all! Newly joined. Does anyone know when the specials are announced? i.e. "Friday Night Special - ???" on 5/16. Thanks!

Rudy The Magic Guy

sorry no

ffmobius2b

Guys, do we have a discord?

Joshua Halstead

You can get them on eBay from Omni comic for 650 before tax. I was going to get one but my mom needed oil.

B. A.

So my only complaint with this system is this was solved a very long time ago with CURRENCY.

B. A.

This first Tarkir print is so rough, every holo has print bubbles

Patbigmack

Ah foundations reprint from Japan… cards smell more chemically (in a good way) and feel better. I don’t even sniff much cardboard and can tell the difference. US has some machines that need sharpened or aligned I got a whole Tarkir box with white edges all around but nothing crazy like some YouTubers were posting.

Dylan Stewart

Hey all. I've been toying with the idea of a moderate to high value bartering system. An example could be me wanting to trade a sealed collector booster of Fallout for a near mint Revised Underground Sea. Obviously these are 2 completely separate items. My concern with this type of system is the inherent risk of fraudulent transactions. My question to you all is would you be interested in a system like this that uses something like PremierCardGrading.com to verify items from both parties, acting as a sort of intermediary? Sorry for the long post, also if this type of thing already exists I apologize.

John Cavanaugh

Folks, remember not to FOMO and rush to buy. I found a FF Collector Box for $500 and right before hitting the buy button I realized it was Japanese language.

B. A.

No idea, but I trust him more than anyone that has actually sent tracking info lol

Londar Swift

Keep your fingers crossed Rudy said he was looking to do a special patreon price. Made it sound like they would be at a really nice discount.

Michael Huffman

Just made my first purchase for cheap magic. Does Rudy send tracking info?

Roger Garner

Curious to thee prices coming for the Final Fantasy. Its going up everywhere. $160 for play boxes now on tcg and amazon had it listed aat $159. my LGS has them aat $177. THIS PRODUCT was under priced at $150. But I'd love to buy it at that price. lol

Amanda caudle

Commander and bundles for final fantasy won't be collectors/gift will they?

ffmobius2b

id assume its just bundles.

Jorge Valles

to clarify, the june 7 sale of bundles are NOT gift boxes?

Tyler

What set? If it is Final Fantasy it is a bit higher than market, but some LGS have started doing that.

Mason Borg

LGS is asking 180 for play box preorders. Anyone else seeing preorders that high? Doesnt that seem ludicrous for a play box?

Utiria

did I randomly just get access to join at the right time? I am the ultimate timmy and will take my seat.

Joshua Halstead

Yup Rudy will post amount when they go live.

Tyler

Timmy Testing 1,2,3 Timmy here 1,2,3 been waiting for a spot to open up for like 6 years finally looked at the right time.

shawn burke

I’m new. Do we just wait for each drop and if we’re interested send a payment through PayPal?

john adams

I’ll wager north of $8k USD

john adams

Depends… stuff like Fallen Empires no, not at all. Stuff like Lord of the Rings, yes. It’s all dependent on the set.

Matt Guedon

Do normal play/draft boxes tend to hold value after they fall out of the standard rotation? I fell out of actively playing MTG for 6 or 7 years after moving for a job and having kids, so slowly getting back into actually playing now.

Nico Lingga

Hi, I am new here. Just making sure, so to buy anything here we should just send paypal Good and Service to the accountAlphainvestmentsLLC@gmail.com with the name of Lynn Doan right? Just making sure don't want to send it to the wrong address. I just tried to send $1 to that account that it told me that "your recipient can't accept payments right now."

Ryan BEN

lol kept 1 box of eldrain collector on display, things like $500 LOL.. I been tending to just open 1 and display 1.

Joshua Halstead

Opened my first box of dragonstorm and it was a blast. Such a fun set to enjoy. I wonder if the gold Chocobo card has a chocolate center?

Joshua Halstead

Yeh Rudy lists them on release. He will sometimes also do nice sales like the svo2 sale recently.

Joshua Halstead

Yup and shipping address too.

Anthony Davie

I cant wait to see what the first golden chocobo sells for in final fantasy

Jeremy G

Seem to really depends on the demand of the set. Higher demand he does larger minimums because he knows he can move things in case amounts.

Matt Guedon

As a new comer, when Rudy does sales for new mtg sets Commander set, Collector boxes, what sort of order numbers does he do? It looks like 2 collectors minimum if I look back at last ones, but what about commanders? Looks like the play boosters and fat packs are by the case, which I think is 6?

Cody J

New here as long as email addresses on this and PayPal match it's all good right

Emory Miedema-Boyajian

I just load up my PayPal balance each month before ordering. Very easy and keeps me out of debt to the PayPal overlords.

Richard

New patron here - payment with a Paypal credit card will work for purchases just the same as a Paypal linked debit card, correct?

Ace Deuce

Afternoon Rudy, Just joined after seeing your account FINALLY having spots open so I grabbed this opportunity to get in. Payments are only accepted via paypal? If possible, would you sending an invoice be sufficient as I do not want to have to push money through PP if avoidable.

John Yip

Hi, new here. I'm interested in new sets for Pokemon. Do I see drops here for that? TIA

Al

@Rudy in lieu of Pokemon sales, can you supply us with some of the salty tears of the folks who rage-quit the Patreon? Those really help in dark times like these... P.S. also need a price quote on 6000 boxes of Fusion Strike

prixec

I'm a newbie here, just wanted to say thanks Rudy - sent for a tarkir box and 2x foundations - appreciate it!

Rudy The Magic Guy

I....SHOULD.....have both

Rudy The Magic Guy

sorry no, Bloomburrow is still at the printers and should be shipping out to stores inthe coming weeks, no one has any at this time

Rudy The Magic Guy

nope, no outside social media is used since 2020

Rudy The Magic Guy

yes i have around 500 patrons using APO/FPO addresses, just make sure its accurate and attached to your paypal payments

Alfonso Padilla

Hey Rudy, do you ship to FPO military addresses? Currently in Bahrain.

Alex Perez

Hey Im a timmy here. Is there a discord for the patreon?

Steve A

Rudy - any chance you run a special sale so patrons can stock up more on Bloomburrow Play boxes once your shipment comes in? Or is the restock pretty limited quantity?

Yoan D.

Hey Rudy, just sent payment for 1 x $100 - PLAY - Tarkir Dragonstorm Box - ( LIMIT 1 ) 1 x $118 - PLAY - DuskMourn Box 1 x $118 - PLAY - Outlaws Thunder Box Thank you in advance

kyle

Thanks Rudy, Just sent over money for one dragonstorm box

Benny

Will the Final Fantasy bundles be gift bundles? Or normal?

Dane Powell

Well you commented on the right post. This is your reference for this month. Basically the rule of thumb is Pokemon drops you gotta watch for

Tye Robison

Hi im new here, and was wondering if there would be monthly drops for pokemon like for magic, or is the pokemon stuff only on specific dates. Also is there a way to look and see what all is forsale?

fog

MSR...udys penis in your mouth.

ffmobius2b

Other than being alive when i wake up, the highlight of my day is what ??? Sale Rudy's gonna be cooking up. ngl

Fernando Ferrera

Happy to be back in the mix! Hello Alpha team and a Creamfilled Chimichanga to The Wizard behind the curtain 💚

Joshua Halstead

In Patreon you can update it under your account.

Christopher Berkley

You can send him a PM. Just give him time to respond because each time you message, it resets your position in his queue.

Michael Vavrek

this and warhammer 40k are doing well lately.

Michael Vavrek

lol someone just bought out commander masters deck sets of 4.... BEAR MARKET CONTINUES!

Jeremy G

Correct

Megan Pittelli

New to the channel. Just want to make sure, when I send payment via paypal I select ‘For goods and services’ correct? So that my shipping address obviously pops up

Grant J Pitarys

Nah that was a 1 and done printing/sale.

Justin Lopez

First order put it today. Ordered 1 Tarkir and 2 Foundations.

Andy Wilkes

He sold out a while ago and doesn’t keep a big stock anymore due to backlash I believe.

Andy Wilkes

You can order the cheap play boxes once a month so stock up each time if you have the funds. Saves Rudy on shipping.

Benkpdx

You will receive an email in the next 1-3 days saying that your order has been processed and given a tracking number. The tracking number may not update for a few days, but it is being processed.

Arturo Ruiz

Just order 1 Tarkir and 2 Play Foundations Thank you

Jordan Walton

Hey Rudy, I made my first order with you through PayPal. I was curious if you do response message or email to money sent with a note. And when the orders are usually shipped out! Love the videos! Shits hilarious 😂

Enrique Coronado

I'm glad to hear I'm not the only new patron. I'm excited for tonight's special.

Laurie Rastellini

I used my wrong email can I change it to my PayPal one? On my acct?

D.S. Skoglund

Can’t believe it’s all at 0

Carlton Carpenter

I hope one of these night specials is a SPC

Alex Patterson

Innistrad play gonna pop onto monthly list? Thought maybe it would be for may.

Paul McCabe

Do you have any Dominaria Remastered Draft Boxes in stock?

Cody

Is the limit per month?

Jeremy G

The sale posts dont count towards the monthly 1-6 play box orders, can do both

Kiel Goodenow

Holding off on other orders to see what drops tonight, It's a good time to be here.

Kiel Goodenow

FR, I'm about to just pay the extra 15🤣

Aaron

It’s when it comes off allocation. So typically 30-60 from release.

Matt Guedon

Hey I'm new. Is it typical for play boxes to be on this list the month after the release? Ie Tarkir comes out in April, then is on this list this month? Thanks!

Steven lu

Have mercy on the MTG FF set!

Londar Swift

I asked Rudy a month ago or so and he said no.

Joshua Halstead

Nah Arturo we get one order from the monthly list for mtg. You can participate in as many the weekend sales as you want.

Danny Stephen

Will you be offering Collector Edition Commander precons of Final Fantasy?

Cole Hodsdon

Brace for impact 5/23 and 5/25. Step sis might not survive

Luca Rovaldi

Wen Legends playmats? 🥃

Arturo Ruiz

Hey Rudy so if I buy MTG for this month does that mean I won’t be able to get anything else till next month? Even for Pokemon just curiosity running through my head. (My bad dumb question)

Darth Lego

If he sells the black crowbar it’ll break the Nikke record.

RYNO Games

Yes he will respond and give tracking! I am newer as well!

RA

Bruhborrow

Scott Weiss

Any more damaged sorcery goods? I need to rip packs. Rip packs Rudy!

Steve A

Will Bloomburrow Play make it onto the May list later half of the month or no chance?

Kevin Sproul

Imma have to save my sheckles for the end of this list, holy crap!

Cairo

Been along time supporter and finally made my first purchase, does he send out a confirmation that he got the money? Or will a packages just arrived one day? Thanks

Mike Rodriguez

As a full sub for Pokémon only, I will say, MTG is...enticing. Rudy, why would I stray toward more MTG than Pokémon rn. Real thoughts only.

iaminbarbados

Waiting for Rudy to add his old mechanics tools for sale on the monthly list.

Gregory Price

No FAB items on monthly anymore eh? Interesting 🤔

Brad Wall

Just signed up today and excited to support and find some deals along the way!

Eric Santamaria

Wow the last month of May to the frist week of June is jam packed.

Josiah Eikelboom

Damn. Going to have to save up for June...

Christopher Ruthenberg

You da man!

Peter Hauge

for hair in range(100): print(f"Rudy’s hairy arm sprout #{hair + 1} waves hello!")

Rudy The Magic Guy

dont make a new email....as stated above...simply add a NOTE

Deuce Bohannan

You the man Rudy, been loving the videos lately. Excited about the ETB cases! I don’t purchase much and mostly subscribe to support the channel, but I will def get some DR ETBs!

Jose Jr Jauregui

Hi Rudy My Patreon email is different from my PayPal email, I had to make a new one, but I am the same person. Let me know what you may need from me.

Jacob Fogle

Gonna be a hell of a couple months yall!

Jacob Fogle

And so it begins

Elijah Sowry

Thanks for the reminder about emails. Looking forward to my first but definitely not last purchase.

David Marshall

Thanks

Allyn Thomas

I want to wait on Bloomburrow but I don't wanna miss out on Foundations and Tarkir

Expert Key Solutions

So, like you said in a recent video. It’s time to have funds available. Understood.

Rudy The Magic Guy

bro...dont be a timmy....its 1st of the month and the patron website is processing payments as fast as possible. The number will change every hour. You cant go by open slots on rollover day.
