Thanks for uploading this, lol. I was very curious but I don't play mtg and have no reason to be a patron.
It’s crazy I gave meta zoo crap for their censorship now I guess I have to give it to fab. Why are these companies so soft?
If LSS have cut ties with Rudy for saying what the whole world knows ( they and other tcg's are not doing great atm ) then they are pretty much cutting off their nose to spite they face. He is probably the reason they sell most of what they do, and I will be very surprised if they last a few more years without him propping up their sales.
What rudy doesn't tell you about flesh and blood is that he has a special relationship between LSS the company and himself where he gets Boxes directly bypassing normal distribution, he gets boxes cheaper than all other LGSs while getting exclusive special promos. Selling the Bundles mat + box + promo card he is making more 30-50% profit than your local game store. The reason the fab boxes are so cheap in North America is because he is undercutting all other stores. He is complaining about a problem he CAUSED. Rudy is literally screwing every local store in the US since he gets boxes below distribution cost. Rudy literally sets the floor price of fab boxes in the US
He is currently unloading his pallets because his other assets are tanking and needs the cashflow
be greedy when other are fearful. what a joke lmao
You clearly have the IQ of a turnip. You are saying this individual Rudy is the LARGEST distributor of Fab products in the world by far. Where he is getting the Majority of the print run. Since that would be the ONLY way to manipulate prices, once people buy up his very limited supply the prices would remain unchanged even if he sells them for $1 as there would be demand for more products beyond what he has. The issue is they OVERPRINTED their products where it is much greater than the demand so no one can sell them for even absurd prices. Maybe instead of taking gender studies classes you should have studied basics of supply/demand.
That is simply not true... there is no undercutting by Rudy to sell sealed FaB boxes. The lowest he sells boxes is well above what TCG has been for well over a year. Maybe what you state is true that he receives boxes at a lower price, but he doesn't sell them at that lower price and pass it onto customers; not affecting the market.
@@F14Flier7 secondary resale value of mats + promos makes it impossible for local games stores to compete. hence why he is desperate for more promos. His bundles absolutely undercut market, great value for his patrons, horrible for LGSs as they need to sell below MAP to compete with him which tanks the market. He has an unfair advantage over LGSs.
Rudy charges people for those promos and playmats. And his bundles usually have multiple boxes along with the promo and playmat. Ends up being something like $50 for the promo and $50 for the playmat. It shouldn’t be Rudy or LSS fault what the secondary market does. Stores get exclusive promos and armory items that include playmats if I’m not mistaken so the idea that this is all one sided doesn’t make sense to me. Stores have pre release items, pre release events etc while Rudy does not. Unless my info is completely outdated and they no longer do Armory Kits, Armory Events, or Pre Release events?
@@CollectibleCrusader All TCGs give event kits for participation at their local store. The promos aren't exclusive and are not tied to box sales. Stores can't resell event promos in any TCG.....
Just because you signed a lease for a bigger building, hired a bunch of people and offer a large cash prize doesn’t necessarily mean they are doing well. Look at metazoo didn’t they hire people and offer large cash prizes. Their boxes are ruffle the same price. I think fab is doing a lot better but still it can’t be good both companies way over print products compared to market demand.
They custom built a floor in a very expensive new building in Auckland NZ. It wasn't just a 'lease'.
@@BrotherRobb so they are just pretentious greedy morons? They showed their true colors with monarch printing over 220k boxes out of their asses and to fix the problem they created themselves they decided to turn into yugioh 2.0.
I don’t think Umu has said anything inaccurate in his videos. Rudy just doesn’t want to acknowledge reality. Umu has been saying for a while LGS’s can’t stand Rudy, MetaZoo is doing horribly, and Hasbro brass aren’t fans of Rudy either. What is inaccurate about that?
LSS didn't force Rudy to take it down, he chose to take it down. We wouldn't want to spread misinformation.
Take Rudy’s unit out of your mouth
All I know is thank goodness Rudy stays away from my favourite game yugioh
Whether Metazoo asked to remove the video or not, that has nothing to do with the facts.
This comment makes no sense. Unless you’re just a FaB rent boy like fluke and box
Dear James white. Keep the print numbers up at 200000 boxes. We need 5 cent majestic and 25 cent tunics.
What are you talking about? Tunics are not 25 cents, the cheapest version is $70, and there's a lot of majestics holding good value.
@@princeLaharl2 Let me know which box booster box set since the FIRST release of this game is holding at over $100?
@@silverwolf6866 why would they be $100? Most box sold at release weren't even $100. That's so expensive lmao
@@martinjacobs8671 Expensive? its the MSRP son. In fact its even higher than $100 for the last set. They are now selling below wholesale price meaning no store will want to carry or market this card game.
It is funny that LSS essentially proves his point as to poor management choices. If they believe he has that much influence, throwing a tantrum is probably not the right approach. This is also the same company who cut off one of their largest West coast partner shops over his discussion of Monarch supply being terrible. So, cutting of the nose to spite the face is in their gense.
I have no idea who LSS is.
Legend Story Studios. The makers of Flesh and Blood
@@CollectibleCrusader Ahhh.
metazoo is dead rip. how are your crayon eaters doing
Still worth $100+ each! :)
wasnt the kit worth 350 @@CollectibleCrusader
@@michaelraven6325 Yes it was $350 and came with 4 blisters/promos, along with 3 different Booster Boxes :).
Lol fab pissed
And dying.
Who knew that slamming a buisness partner on a social media platform would cause a snag in a buisness relationship. Why do people simp for rudy so much? Lss didnt force him to take it down, he took it down because he got scolded by a buisness partner
Yeah what happened
Rudy from Alpha Investments uploaded a video where he spoke about Flesh and Blood, Metazoo, Pokemon etc and how weak the market has been. But during his Flesh and Blood portion he spoke about How boxes are selling for way less than MAP and how multiple stores reached out to Legend Story Studios to complain that Rudy was undercutting the market by offering his $15 per month patrons boxes at $88 shipped along with having playmats and promos that made people want to buy from him instead of LGS’. And that because of this LSS are essentially making him sell boxes at MAP and can only sell during Release week if I’m not mistaken. Because of him sharing this info and his criticism of the FaB market as whole, they got extremely angry with Rudy which is why he took down the video from RUclips. Due to this, the partnership he had with LSS is in question and he does not know what the future entails for him regarding FaB
Demand for any singles in the U.K. is zero, even if you go on card market and go 50% under EURO value things don’t sell, it’s mad. No one cares about fab anymore sadly, or very little at least
I knew Metazoo was up to no good. Rudy never mentions Umu. You lost your credibility the minute you read the statement.
Rudy’s the type of guy to never acknowledge anyone’s existence that gives a negative statement towards him.
whats with your arm?
My sleeve got rolled up! Haha 😂
oh, okay :)@@CollectibleCrusader
