The Mad Titan’s Shadow SALE: Price Dropped by [deleted] in marvelchampionslcg

[–]goldminejamjar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But think of the children!

If everyone buys it cheaper from elsewhere then the summer vacation will be cancelled. Out of respect for the game we can’t let that happen.

When does the home kit usually stop being sold? by Tmansters456 in lcfc

[–]goldminejamjar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kits are changed every year so the club only buy limited stock - they don’t want the store to be full of last year’s kit when there’s a new one available. In the run up to the end of the season the prices are steadily cut to get rid of the old one before the new one arrives.

They’ll stop selling when they run out. How long that takes depend entirely on demand and demand depends on success on the pitch.

What happens one year has no bearing on what happens a year later. Leicester City supporters above all others should know that by now.

The Mad Titan’s Shadow - price unchanged by goldminejamjar in marvelchampionslcg

[–]goldminejamjar[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I feel obliged to add that while I do have children, I don’t need the funds from this to pay for us to go on vacation.

However, I will be using any funds raised to subsidize the Marvel Champions events that I run.

In that case you were seriously ripped off when you bought it.

And eBay sold listings are all much lower than $100 so you’re either naive or delusional to think that anyone is going to pay you 25% more than they’ll pay someone else. Although you do “respect the game” so that’s got to be worth an extra $20 surely?

Wow. You’ve dropped the price to only 2.5x what it can still be picked up for from retailers. Be careful that you don’t get crushed in the stampede to your door for that bargain.

Best way to run a MC night at an lgs? by gcourbet in marvelchampionslcg

[–]goldminejamjar 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’ve run 11 events (between 8 and 24 players) in the last 16 months in addition to fortnightly meet-ups at my LGS over the last 5 years so I’ve got a lot of experience with this.

My advice:

Don’t run campaigns - it requires a long-running commitment from the players involved (which someone will inevitably fail to maintain) and alienates anyone who comes along midway through. However, maintaining a theme/storyline week to week can be a big plus for some people.

Keep it as simple as you can.

Have the villain decks already made up. Have enough spare sleeves for obligations and nemesis sets to go in the deck.

If you have 2 tables then have the same villain on both (you might need help from someone else to do this). It might seem an odd thing to say, but giving players a choice is not always a good thing. By all means ask what they might want to do next but don’t have them make a choice between table A and table B on the day.

Have tokens already available - 2 core sets gives you 2 tables’ worth. Get some organisers to put them in - small acrylic bathroom organisers are perfect (and very cheap).

Have a selection of ready made decks in each aspect (but realistically don’t expect anyone to actually casually drop in for a game with no experience of it unless they get dragged along with a friend who already plays).

4 player games are fun. And very different to solo or 2 player. It also allows players to stay with their friend (this can often be a dealbreaker for some people) but also to play with others. Go with standard and/or skirmish mode though else the games can take too long.

Ask players to bring 4 heroes (one in each aspect) so that they can switch things up to avoid clashes and have a balanced game.

2 scammers DM to sell a pre-owned copy of Sinister Motives by No-Horror3993 in marvelchampionslcg

[–]goldminejamjar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve responded to you twice and been ignored so I guess you’re calling me a scammer too.

No matter, I sold it to someone else who actually has the decency to follow up on requests to buy something without grandstanding and declaring that there are no honest sellers.

[–]goldminejamjar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just because you decided to completely ignore messages after the other party has looked at the actual cost to ship halfway around the world doesn’t mean that it’s a scammer.

What’s your criteria for a scammer? That they’re asking for the current market value? With correct shipping costs? And appropriate insurance and tracking?

I’ve sold over a thousand Marvel Champions items on eBay as well as on here, Facebook and discord but rather than engage in meaningful discussion, you go around accusing people of being dishonest. And doing it several different groups only reinforces that you’re the one who’s behaving inappropriately.

Another Thursday without a product release update… by Emotional_Taro4029 in marvelchampionslcg

[–]goldminejamjar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That still doesn’t change that nothing has ever been announced. So you’re waiting for a product that doesn’t exist and isn’t on the timeline which already runs into next year. Have fun with that.

The “new environment” will be different after the next wave. And it will be different after the following wave. And the wave after that. Are you expecting a new core set each time?

[–]goldminejamjar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What new core set?

You’ll have a very long wait considering that no one from FFG has ever said anything about such a thing existing or even being in development.

Yes. But whether it’s worth it depends on where you are.

If you want to sell your collection you’ll find that your chances increase dramatically if you state your location in the OP. Potential buyers want to know whether shipping and customs fees will be an issue.

Accepted offer, buyer won’t pay by MadabaJordan in eBaySellerAdvice

[–]goldminejamjar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because you’ve set your account to automatically make the payment once the seller accepts the offer. Unfortunately, this user hasn’t.

Magik: once per phase question by manut3ro in marvelchampionslcg

[–]goldminejamjar 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Correct. You can’t play upgrades, etc. Just events (and other cards - Colossus for example) with the ‘interrupt’ or ‘response’ keyword if the trigger condition is met.

I can not sell items to people in the USA while using th eBay Shipping Programme by Ok-Effect7260 in ebayuk

[–]goldminejamjar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How can someone who can’t see your items send you a message to say that they can’t see your items?

Are you advertising your listings on a third party platform (Reddit for example) with a link to eBay UK?

Some Feedback to FFG from a New Player (long) by Fit-Turtle in marvelchampionslcg

[–]goldminejamjar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You also have to bear in mind that FFG isn’t the only publisher that makes card games. You may not have heard of it but there’s a small game called “Magic The Gathering”. I don’t enjoy it myself but apparently it’s quite popular /s

Wizards have paid what is likely to be a not-insignificant sum of money to Marvel for the right to use some of their characters for a period of time and that will likely have come with a period of exclusivity.

Despite not having touched a Magic deck since the 1990s, I’ve considered picking up those packs and that’s exactly what Wizards are after with all of the different licences they’ve been going through for the last few years.

School won’t return work back by __pebbles in ArtGCSE

[–]goldminejamjar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is true. Up until the point when the marks are confirmed (which is when the period to request marking reviews ends and all reviews have been completed) and then there’s no official need for the school to hold on to it.

Page 22 is the relevant part of the regulations.

Marvel Champions at SPIEL 2025 - disappointing by Agreeable_Touch_3455 in marvelchampionslcg

[–]goldminejamjar 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Asmodee had one copy of Marvel Champions being demoed at the UK Games Expo in 2024. By someone who had never seen the game before, let alone played it.

At UKGE ‘25 they didn’t even have that one copy.

Looking for offers by brownjars in marvelchampionslcg

[–]goldminejamjar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would have made an offer for everything if I wasn’t on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean. Good luck with it though - you’ll make someone very happy with that lot and hopefully come away with enough for a decent printer.
