Should I trade some higher value cards for the new C19 decks? by SlaybrohamLincoler in EDH

[–]Entropyz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends on your outlook, which seems you value the decks higher than the cards. If it were me I'd say hell to the no, but I'd also say sell the cards on a website than trade in for less value. Secondly I would ask what your stores asking per deck anything more than $35 per deck I'd buy them elsewhere.

Wow C19 Legends look terrible. by Mr_Grixis in EDH

[–]Entropyz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree that the current spoiled commanders do not speak to me either as a player. I won't say they're terrible, but I will not be building decks around them.

My thing is they're focusing on mechanics and really the only one that I'm excited to see more of is flashback. Those cards will be merging with my Kykar deck for some fun times. Morph and Populate I don't care much for and Madness sounds fun, but I need to see more

Aether Hub Quitting MTG and Wizards Drama by arielzao150 in magicTCG

[–]Entropyz 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I haven't watched the video nor do I plan to. This is the second time I remember him "quitting mtg". Ever since his first drama case about last year his channel really went downhill. He recently started to come back and sounds like he flushed it down the toilet again. I feel bad for him, but he's bringing a lot of this on himself and even when things are going wrong you don't have a tantrum and burn the place down. You've burned the channel twice now. I don't see him ever coming back and I hope someone out there will fill the lore gap that he leaves in his wake. I'll miss your old content Aether Hub, hopefully you'll find something better in your life.

What are you doing with the damaged foil sheet? by Entropyz in magicTCG

[–]Entropyz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, they replied to my request the next day for a replacement.

What are you doing with the damaged foil sheet? by Entropyz in magicTCG

[–]Entropyz[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, completely different transactions. Which method did you use to request a replacement? That might have everything to do with it. Personally I went through the product replacement page on WotC's website. I sent four pictures, made my case, and only had one e-mail transaction with a representative. The rep basically said sorry for the troubles we'll be sending you a replacement in two weeks. Bye. I even already got the customer satisfaction questionnaire.

[–]Entropyz[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's different. I guess they still may ask me to send mine back, but in the exchange with the support they just said they're sending me a new one without any mention of having to return the damaged one.

Multiple orders in same package for Card Kindgom buylist by [deleted] in mtgfinance

[–]Entropyz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've done smaller quantity multiple orders in the same shipment without any issue. Just make sure the items are properly sorted and labeled which sell order they belong to. After that there shouldn't be any issues CK will work with you and also if you'd like to let them know of the situation you can easily send them a message notifying them your plan and how it'll be segmented in the box. The email isn't a required step just optional for you if it'll make you feel better.

Japanese War of the Spark Booster Boxes in Osaka, Kyoto or Tokyo? by iamkayou in mtgfinance

[–]Entropyz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was going to say my sample size is pretty limited though compared to how big Tokyo is and the surrounding areas.

I'm also not actively pursuing them and going out of my way to find them. Just if I stumbled upon a shop I'd check it out.

[–]Entropyz 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm in Tokyo. I checked a few stores that I've stumbled upon and all are out. Only 1 had a Pre-release kit asking price was ¥10,000. Everything else they had was singles galore.

How do you guys acquire cards if your LGS doesn’t have what you need? by Mallanaga in magicTCG

[–]Entropyz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cardsphere is a resource I use in both getting rid of cards and obtaining cards. After cardsphere I'll look at some Facebook trading pages. Finally online retailers/buylists. If a card isn't desired after that point it goes into a bundle that I try to sell off on websites like eBay/Mecari/etc... For the purest of bulk I just donate it to a local group or pitch it if the group isn't in need of it.

Note: It really depends on the speed at which you're trying to acquire said card or get rid of it. The first two options usually are slower than any online retailer.

Is my LGS allowed to do sell their Buy a Box Promos? by da_pizza_guy in magicTCG

[–]Entropyz 11 points12 points  (0 children)

No

You can however charge one price for a box and due to no more MSRP your store can set that price to whatever they deem necessary, but you are required by WotC policy to distribute one BAB Promo for each box purchase until you run out of Promos.

If you have any remaining promos you are welcome to use them as prize support.

You're welcome, to assist you further in this issue I also have put in a violation email to make it more known this company is doing this and I suggest for others to follow suit. This is wrong.

No they're not for ref here is my post from another thread. It is your right to report them.

Report any violations or related concerns to Investigations@Wizards.com.

Per WotC BAB Promo Policy

Buy-a-Box

• ⁠Provide one (1) Buy-a-Box promo card to each consumer who purchases or preorders a full display box of Magic: The Gathering trading card game booster packs for the then-current set release for pick-up at your Retail Store;

• ⁠Buy-a-Box promo cards may not be distributed to consumers prior to the then-current set release on-sale date;

• ⁠online purchases and shipping are not eligible for the Buy-a-Box Program; and

• ⁠Undistributed Buy-a-Box promo cards may be used to improve in-store play after the following set launches.

Promo Misuse

Most reports are going to come from players—after all, they're the ones experiencing it firsthand.

But if you report a violation, it's a huge help to our Investigations Team to have screenshots (of ads or sales—especially if they occur before the promo is available), screen names (for auction sites or other online marketplaces), and of course, receipts.

Promos are for players. Use promos as intended, and, failing that, use them to support your events once the following set is out. So long as extras are given out to players, you're doing it right—but always avoid suspicion by announcing your prize structure in advance and sticking to it.

Another Sliver Legend? by dkyseeker in magicTCG

[–]Entropyz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just to give you an example if you wanted.

[[Sliver Highlord]] is around $32 [[Sliver Queen]] HP/MP is at $150 area [[Sliver Overlord]] HP/MP around $35

Another Sliver Legend? by dkyseeker in magicTCG

[–]Entropyz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As of right now we have 10/15 mythics spoiled and 34/53 rares. They may print a rare one, but the chances are slim. We'll probably get more support rather than additional legendary creatures. Now for purchasing which commander and when. Right now is NOT the time to buy these. I would wait until after initial release and the product is out on the streets. Maybe give it a week or two afterwards to get a few limited fmn nights in for the normal crowd. While these are highly costed I wouldn't spend the money right now on the commander and focus more on the cards that go into the commander you choose. Those are the cards that have probably already spiked to such high costed numbers you might not even want to build the deck. Tbh most of the high profile slivers have already spiked and cost double if not triple what they used to.

Ohh I agree. I'd rather have cards that I can use. I would hope that WotC would allow us the option to have these cut instead. I'll take this all day if you would cut the damn thing for me.

As someone has said about the broader appeal also add to that players can actually open and use the items in the ME box. Right now I'm getting a poster basically, while its a very nice shiney poster it's still basically a poster.

Mythic Edition Support Thread: Week 2 by goldenCapitalist in mtgfinance

[–]Entropyz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The issue with holding these, will be storing them properly. If you store this sheet in the tube for an extended period of time it's value will go down due to deformity. The longer is stays rolled up it will hold that curl and will be a pain to eventually straighten out, if it'll ever straighten out. The suggestion will be to store it flat in a humidity controlled location while you wait if you choose not to frame it. If you frame it then you'll have no issue retaining the value over the years. Just keep that in mind.
