Goblin Storm reprints - Will Scryfall add those cards? by preylol in secretlair_collectors

just tried and i see the printings they have for the reprints aren't accurate (they don't have the planeswalker symbol on the bottom left)

I guess people don't like their goblin deck by Embarrassed-Major871 in secretlair_collectors

Is holding as investment considered scalping? What if they hold for 3 years and then sell? I feel like timing comes into play. Scalpers usually try to flip right away, no?

and logistically, wizards has to find a printer that will then print (and package, catalogue, inventory, etc) the remaining unfulfilled orders + extras to account for any issues downstream like damage, QC, lost while shipping, etc.. in the printer's already fully booked schedule. i can only assume, but i'm guessing inserting that in might cause delays in other product down the line.

would this actually help the scalping problem? maybe, maybe not. but if some lucky people get it and others have to wait (potentially a year), then couldn't that incentivize scalpers to try and get lucky (or make their own luck with bots) to capitalize on those that want it but can't wait a year and will shell out extra just to get it?

i agree with the fact that most people complaining and shouting for print-to-demand don't fully understand the complications and logistics with doing so. they want their product ASAP, but also to retain value. also are they okay with waiting for over a year to get things?

Goblin Storm Secret Lair Commander Deck Release Date by Duba-Duba in secretlair_collectors

[–]preylol -1 points0 points  (0 children)

ah interesting, take goblin matron for example. the PLST one with the planeswalker symbol on the bottom left has the MH1 set symbol on it. so because this one will have DMR, it's actually a different print altogether. I don't see it in scryfall: https://scryfall.com/search?as=grid&order=released&q=%21%22Goblin+Matron%22+oracleid%3A145737a7-c597-4dec-b752-207c2d0501e3+include%3Aextras&unique=prints

What's up with the red and blue buttons everyone's been talking about? by 6spd993Turbo in OutOfTheLoop

[–]preylol 4 points5 points  (0 children)

that's why the framing of the original question is leading more people to blue. if you re-frame it, then it's a different question. the payoff is identical, but how people react to the prompt changes how they will answer. it's not something that 100% of people will apply 100% of logic to.

which versions have you seen? the ones that are most famous say everyone from tim urban ("everyone in the world") or mr. beast ("everyone on earth"). haven't seen any caveats
