I'm hoping for commander decks lol

Rudy The Magic Guy

That is the paypal mobile short link, that works fine

Rudy The Magic Guy

End of the month, always a spike and a couple days to handle it

Cobe

hey rudy! i sent payment for one of the draft boxes on paypal a few days ago, but have yet to get confirmation for the order. just wanna make sure that you see my payment and that i did this right

Denkou42

Any chance to get an idea on what sales will be fore august 2/4? Missed bloomburrow collectors due to being out of town, I can only be home by midnight ish on friday if it's something interesting

Krystian Gieryk

Ok PayPal on pc shows the email. On iPhone it shows me the 69 ID. I was concerned Rudy changed his PayPal. Using the search would not show the address for alpha investments - sorry I haven’t used PayPal with out a third party interface for a long time

Krystian Gieryk

Hi is the PayPal ID alphainvestments69? I want to be sure. I haven’t made a purchase in a long time

William Kern

Hey! Was wondering with play boxes coming, are drafts going away? I want to put in an order for some draft but need to wait until next month. Just wanted to make sure they will still be available. Thanks Rudy!

Brandon Wagner

Hey Rudy! I made an order during the bloomburrow collector sale and it's my first time ordering. If you could confirm that my order was done correctly and accepted I would really appreciate it!

Joseph MacAllister

I'll consider voting for him after I hear his position on a Pikachu based economy.

Frog Man Dan

🇺🇸 RUDY ‘24! 🇺🇸

Anthony Paramo

9 PM EST or 2100 hours EST if the pm doesn't make sense.

Anthony Paramo

damn missed it. my wife digs the game. she gets together with her boss and some of the other girls and play and crack packs.

Rudy The Magic Guy

Yea I saw it....I recieved a lot of Haye reporting on lorcana...not sure I'll do it again

Eric Molina

Hey Rudy. Looks like Amazon put a new all time low on Lorcana Into the Inklands booster. $85 shipped!

Michael Lasso

What time do the Friday/Sunday Night specials normally Go Live?

Ceolo Physis

What’s up with play boxes for Karlov at $90 tcg?

Ceolo Physis

Patreon Mtg draft boxes breaking $90? And Karlov Manor play boxes at $90 on TCG 😂 … 🤨 Somethings off

Rudy The Magic Guy

Yes

MR

From the recent video on PCG, does this mean we can manually add cards for grading from dead ccgs of years past?

Lightfox Lowell

I saw the play boxes are gonig to be 120-125 for bloom, what does it look like the collector boxes are going to be going for on the 26th?

Tyler McCoy

If you are on a browser there's a button near the top right that says message. Just click that. If you are on a phone it's three dots and an option for message the creator is there.

Rudy The Magic Guy

At release it will be a little higher around $120-$125. Post release a month later, should drop to the teens

Heath Mickelson

Hey Rudy, how’s the outlook on play boxes? Still looking at $109 to $119 range on play boxes when bloomburrow releases?

Rodney Burt

Hey rudy, I'm trying to send you a message about how to purchase and I'm not sure how to pm on here. If you could reach out to me I have a couple quick questions on the patreon stuff. Thanks

Christopher Berkley

I think you mean set boosters (they didn’t make play boosters for Baldur’s). I believe Joshua is referring to an additional sale but he might have missed that one.

Becklyn

Please get Bloomburrow Commander Decks! Thank you.

Andres Delgado

michael rohrbaugh

Go with Jumpstart, take 2 and shuffle together, and off to the races you go!

michael rohrbaugh

Lol

michael rohrbaugh

He had one beginning of last month, maybe may, for the play boosters

Elijah Vanaver

yeah, the distributors would have to take more of a loss than that to entice you to pick up a few palettes to sell to us patrons.

Rudy The Magic Guy

Some distributed discounted MKM down from $115 down to $100 but i dont think it will help sell at this itme

Elijah Vanaver

Would it be possible to add MKM to the list? Are distributors dumping that set yet, or holding out for a price spike?

Banzai

🇺🇸

Rudy The Magic Guy

Sorry I dont have any 151, patrons bought it all on release

Rudy The Magic Guy

Yep, it was moved forward a week due to schedule conflict with bloomburrow

Benny

Does that Pokemon sale seem SUPER early to anyone else?

RetroGraded

Seems like the only place I can ask this. Anybody want to trade 2 game pieces Rudy shirts for 2 smalls? I got the mediums.

Ryan BEN

im waiting for bloomburrow to drop lol

Travis Huckleberry

Rudy can I buy 1 paladea evolved sealed box and 2 151 elite trainer boxes. I understand if it is tcg price or a little higher.

James Fuller

J22 singles also sell very, very well for me. Chase stuff like ashcoat and rhystic study, and a bunch of expensive commons and uncommons to be found. The only downside are those cigarette style cellophane packs can be so hard to open without damaging the cards! And of course the good cards are locked away behind the most difficult risky packaging :)

Alex Patterson

That’s gonna be a good night!

Joshua Halstead

Ah the mystery sales always have me curious. I wish we knew when the Mtg baulders gate sale will be.

Adrienne Kansiewicz

I’m really glad to hear things have quieted down for you. People need to understand life sucks sometimes, and they CHOOSE to gamble on cardboard. No one is forcing them to buy anything. Praying you and yours stay well

Mark Lamica

I taught 2 kids MTG. For both I used Core sets and incorporated my older cards with less mechanics- where the creatures were simple and did not do xtra stuff. New core sets contain reprints where they still have complex mechanics. But you could use Bloomburrow as well. That way they only have to learn the mechanics for that set. But I've found that challenging because even common creatures so SOMETHING else. Another option are the old planeswalker decks. As they get a handle on that deck, then you can start introducing new cards/sets.

Mark Lamica

With a Beta precon box? AL wont have precon decks.

Riley Richburg

And then in 5 years the same people will show the same screenshot saying “Man!! I wish we could get that box at that price” It’s comical at this point 😂

Omniphil

Honestly the best starting point is the 2022 Game Night product on Amazon for 48 bucks. 5 single color decks to make it easy to learn and feel out what each color plays like. Includes dice, counters and instructions.

Peter R

Plus, the loyalty sale too.

Peter R

My poor, poor bank account. Blommy may take it to pound town.

Anthony Paramo

Jumpstart is cool. Shuffle two packs and make a deck. Good for beginners.

Luca Rovaldi

🥃

Logan Pierce

The Foundations Core Set is print to demand for five years, for what that’s worth.

Logan Pierce

$2 won’t even get you anything on a fast food “value menu” these days.

Rudy The Magic Guy

same kit as last time :-)

Andrew smith

Kits having 3 boxes again or full case ?

Smashingtrifource .

No Bloomburrow commander decks?

Mateo

Excited for another spicy promo 😳

Rudy The Magic Guy

should be the same 2,500 kits, and no...i wont have extra boxes to sell post release, and i promis you...it will sell out with extreme demand.

Rudy The Magic Guy

Sure, i can offer you any pokemon case from the last 7 years. But after the initial release, i will never offer those prices again. It would simply be tcplayer pricing. The amount of hatred that was used against me for leaving pokemon boxes available for months was off the chart. Constant people posting public screenshots of how "ovepriced" pokemon was due to market prices swinging post release. Moving forward all boxes are offered at release and then thats it. i keep all remaining until they sky rocket.

Andrew smith

Are you expecting a larger print run of Arthurian legends ? If so is this product you could add to the monthly products ?

Abran Aragon

Can I private message you for what’s available for sale?

Rudy The Magic Guy

never again.

Frog Man Dan

I’m gonna stay the course!

Abran Aragon

Will you ever add Pokémon boxes to the monthly buy list?

1423big

Start with the core set. Bloomburrow will still be in print in a year. (or buy some boxes and put them in the closet for later once they master the core set)

Andy Wilkes

I am ready for some Magic Redwall! I mean Bloomburrow. Seriously gonna be a monster of a hit set. Will actually pick up and crack my first play box with this one.

Rudy The Magic Guy

Actually things have been very good in the last couple months. The volatiltly and attitude of the public/patrons has improved tremendously as the market has improved. Kinda depressing thats how the world works...but it is the reality of handling markets and price swings.

Adrienne Kansiewicz

Your “???” for weekly sales are brutal lol 😅 Hope you all are doing well, and people have stopped being stupid for at least a little while for you.

Rudy The Magic Guy

100% = Bloomburrow is going to be huge.

Omniphil

Excited either way to be part of this fun ride....

Jonathan Witt

Magic people: I have two kids, 10 and 7. They enjoy Pokemon, and actually play it, but I'd like to show them Magic. I haven't played in many years, but I was thinking the animal theme of Bloomburrow might suit them. On the other hand, a new core set is coming in a few months, and the mechanics will be undoubtedly simpler. What do you think? Go with the animals, or wait a few months and go with the easier to learn Foundations set?

Rudy The Magic Guy

yep, that product ONLY has a draft box and is on the verge of out of print also within the next 90 days

Tyler Olson

Did Jumpstart 2022 just have one type of Booster Box Display?

Rudy The Magic Guy

As we head to 2025, you will see the price of the old Draft boxes slowely dissappear and the Play boxes will take over

Rudy The Magic Guy

I am not...i beleive i have a partial case left...8 boxes? i think

Randy Byberg

Rudy are you sold out of One Piece 500 years?

Omniphil

2 bucks a box is honestly nothing in the grand scheme of things. Do what you gotta do and we'll still support you. Unless it goes up 3 dollars, then the pitchforks will come out. Lol

Rudy The Magic Guy

nope, you can get a full sealed case

Christopher Walsh

Is there still a 1 box limit on Ixalan?

Caleb P

$2? Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

Sterban73

2 dollar increase sucks but the prices are still insanely fair. Thanks for keeping the prices low.

charles j

If ya dont; it happens vut Id be down for some bloomburrow deck sets. The art's looks awesome

Rudy The Magic Guy

Correct, The exclusive promo + exclusive playmat is already in production.

John Cavanaugh

October 4th.

Rudy The Magic Guy

if i get allocated a good amount, that will pop up in a small sunday night sale

Liam Singca

No Shrouded Fable Booster Bundles?

Rudy The Magic Guy

uncertain yet, i requested a small amount.

Daveinster

Yes! I think you mentioned that in a video the other day.

Rudy The Magic Guy

you may not see much public posting...but i do expect some nasty private messages. This was a last minute shift due to me seeing todays July 1st 2024 - USPS price increase take effect. It might be the largest single price increase on packages i have seen in my life.
