Rudy, I ask you in all honesty here. Take one minute. Ask yourself “if I was hasbro and I wanted to get 25% reprint run on boxes and have next to no one notice and have them sell year over year. How would you design such a set to fulfill that kind of desire? Me I make no serialized cards first. Then I give it some arbitrary but “groundbreaking historic name”. Then at initial release I only sell 75% volume. Year over year I inject 25% of all box print run (25% total added together) back in as “distribution restocks”. Weird foundations checks my boxes for how to fleece morons. It’s weird how 5 years at 75% initial print run and 25% injection over each year, that’s 200% volume, and way less risk of market volatility.
I bought heavily into kamigawa collector boxes and got burned badly when that 2nd released happened and prices tanked. The prices on these boxes are still below water and still trying to recover...ugh 😢😢😢
Wave 2 of Kami Coll. (Wave 2... not "reprint") tanked the price, but this specific product is months away from a substantial spike. March-April 2025 and we should see its correct price point 😊
Rudy = Be a patron don’t overpay! Also Rudy = *Not accepting new Patrons* I think this is where people get a bit annoyed where he’s not lying per se but he’s portraying skewed versions of reality.
I don't care about the investing aspect, I buy pokemon tcg just to open and collect. I do enjoy your videos Rudy. I enjoy you talking about MTG cards even tho I have no interest in them.
Wish I could be a patron from Canada. We get so wrecked on import fees and our dollar being terrible. Ordered a handful of singles on tcg player once thinking I was saving $ compared to lgs/face to face. Got slammed with a nearly $100 extra import fee when I went to the post office. 😢
Yikes. The number of FaB promos will be in for a tough battle. So much for getting 3 sets as usual 😞 But well, we don't control the printers and their stocks.
6:02 Not to mention you are only going to get 40 - 60$ on average in actual card value if you are wanting to open packs. MTG is dead for pack opening lovers. Its for the rich now.
I think wizards is going to do what ever is best for their profits, so if they see a foundations collectors boxes profits excess the whinning their going to do it.
It makes no sense to make a product that's supposed to be available for 4 YEARS and then only print them at release and never reprint them over 4 years. That just doesn't make any sense. Now, Wizards is perfectly able to act in a nonsensical way, but why wouldn't they reprint a 4 year active product?
They should left it called jumpstart 2025, thats what it even says on the cards. Changing the name to foundations jumpstart made ir sound like one of the bad ones.
What other Collector box set has been around for 5 years? No one knows if there will be a Collector reprint, but greedy WotC would be stupid not to reprint at least once a year.
The prices of the Foundations fractured foils etc etc is the most ridiculous pricing I’ve ever seen. Anyone who pays 300 dollars for a llanowar elves is not smart 😆 This is like the textured foils with quad masters. The price is gonna crash der der der. Hurry sell it now to naive youths. Honestly though I got a rager for the Final Fantasy set that’s coming out. Can’t wait my money will be spent.
what's the difference between reprinting 10 pallets and releasing 10 unknown pallets that were printed 6 months earlier? Doesn't it have the exact same impact on the market?
Remember that time they found a pallet of legends? Good times
Come for the cardboard, stay for the in depth pallet analysis

Deep fucking pallets

Ahahah that's funny cuz i've been opening the transcript and ctrl+f pokemon when i'm tight on time xD

Welcome to Alpha Investments, I love you.
I know this place pretty good. I got my series 69 here.
General market video are the fricking best, thank you Rudy!!!!
The more Rudy Neckbeard the more bullish I am
There are so many so-called cardboard gurus saying folks to start a video. The envy is putride.
Nostalgic Nomics is the goat
Folks is incredibly common in America, especially the south... Now calling people timmies is straight up ripping Rudy off.
I have noticed this shit as well lol.
@@justinland1208 its clear they are influenced it.

Timmies yelling at their mom's from their basement rooms to order Foundations Play Boxes!!
Rudy is like Baskin-Robbins, he knows.
Yes, Foundations Play Boosters and Jumpstart boxes will be plentiful. Thank you for the video Rudy.

Foundations collectors on GameStop for $280, not sold out
Not too bad but still 300 after taxes
Just don’t pay the tax
Germany is 289€ on Games-Island (that includes taxes already). They had them for 235€ previously though…
Made my 1st ETB purchase, 10 ea, Obsidian & Paldea from GME BF sale. They arrived today in NM Condition! keepin'em seeeeealed!
Same here but i was only limited 6 each. So I did multiple purchases lol it was a no brainer ! Mine should be coming soon.
Have you considered adding a mic/better mic to use during your videos? I have to turn your videos up a lot louder than others.
Great content!
$305 - $269 - fees = +$100 (in rudy math somehow) sure
buy now!!! before its too late!!!! no regerts!!

Rudy's got what plants need.
Foundation play sounds like some bdsm crap
Just got this recommended to me in 2028. Can’t believe it, I just bought Dark Tyranny for $250 a box MSRP and it’s gonna go to the mooonnnn
Dark tyranny is a garbage set, every shits on Flames Forged, but thats the real sleeper set of 2027. 2028 sets won't age well.
I have a few cases of flames forged but outside the blinding light charzard, that set doesn’t have any hits worth anything. Darkness ablaze 4.0.
Thanks for my Foundations collectors!
under the pink guy suit is Rudy
I thought /I/ was the only one who has spare tether balls! We should hang out more.
I just come here for the, “Folks.”
I bought a set of Surging Sparks will it drop in price?
Probably not much even with a reprint
And my girls taco is dripping wet! 😂😂😂

Do you think pokemon cards will end up like football cards were boxes will end up going for double msrp or more on release?
Rudy, you able to tell if a Timmy has soiled his shorts? You have figured pallets out , down to the sun fading and sweaty balls.
Can confirm, no added costs for hawaii shipping.
Rudy = Be a patron don’t overpay!

Patreon spots are limited by RUclips. You have to catch it when there's spots open
There's slots available.
@@monkey39128 Only the $5 ones which you can’t purchase from him if you buy that as it’s just to show support and includes no benefit.
Should i get a foundation collector box for 285? Dont know much about magic at all why im asking
I refuse to be bamboozled
Alaska - woot, woot!
Also, PCG slabs looking good man. Big 3 grading companies can suck it. A 10 is a 10 it will sell. fuck the haters.
Jumpstart foundations is $90 almost everywhere.
I don't care about the investing aspect, I buy pokemon tcg just to open and collect. I do enjoy your videos Rudy. I enjoy you talking about MTG cards even tho I have no interest in them.
Wish I could be a patron from Canada.
We get so wrecked on import fees and our dollar being terrible.
Ordered a handful of singles on tcg player once thinking I was saving $ compared to lgs/face to face.
Got slammed with a nearly $100 extra import fee when I went to the post office. 😢
next fab set is going to be huge
Is 300 really the cheapest we can get rn for preorders on the innistrad remastered collector booster boxes?
will you ever open up your patreon to overseas viewers?
This guy is actually hilarious the way he talks 😂
should i sell my surging sparks pikachu or hold it? its a strong 9 grade id guess
Risk it for the biscuit
Sell one week before Christmas
are you stocking op09?
Yikes. The number of FaB promos will be in for a tough battle. So much for getting 3 sets as usual 😞 But well, we don't control the printers and their stocks.

Came for the rant stayed for the Jon Lovitz ad lol
Anyone watching in 2028?
I love Pokemon, but this winter is going to bring the vultures fomo. during prismatics initial Wave its going to be like the crazy 80’s Black Fridays
Does anybody know which productlines Rudy can ship to Europe?
We need an Australian Rudy
Rudy is the Elon Musk of the cardboard world.
Have you seen Innistrad remastered collector? They were up for $280+tax and instantly sold out.
They schedule reprints based on pre orders, specifically through Amazon. Enjoy.
Why are they 280 on Amazon? Is that a scam?
does anyone know if rudy ships to canada?
goddamn sir, you are one funny mutha fawka... i'm crackin up.
hi-def rudy is pretty good rudy
5:19 Nice
You ready for black friday Rudy?

I think wizards is going to do what ever is best for their profits, so if they see a foundations collectors boxes profits excess the whinning their going to do it.
Innistrad Reprinted incoming....😅
So... is Rudy gonna buy out BGS?
116? I paused the video to leave this comment and check out the shop. eBay you say?
When Timmy says he can’t afford dual lands or play Legacy but spends hundreds of dollars on anime cards that won’t hold value. Heavy sigh 😅
Sell it all!
PR wont be the CR of this era, TM will be
It’s 2024 and wer doing virtual mouth hugs

Can you do a cardboard age comparison video?
I have a whatnot Rudy :)
I wish I was friends with Rudy IRL
Me too tbh
Wish I knew you had collector boxes for 269 😢
It’s the end of the world 🌎 my anxiety is at all time highs 😂😮😢my hair is on fire 🔥
If you have a LGS in town, give them your money not Rudy
Nah we need Timmy's Emporium on TCGPlayer lol
They should left it called jumpstart 2025, thats what it even says on the cards. Changing the name to foundations jumpstart made ir sound like one of the bad ones.
So many poketubers that are just kids.

I still don’t know why people think obsidian flames is better than paradox, but please keep sleeping so I can get more 😂
Rudy, sell me your collection, I will pay you 20% ❤
At least give it a few days 😅 too soon. Trying to sell a bit for the sales.
