I think it‘s important to note, that the final total seen on screen is not the total value of the box since those cards below 2 dollars are not factored in. So on the second box the actual value in cards also certainly was 180$ or higher. It‘s just a more fictive number since those small value cards are not easily resellable.

It was an amazing time. I started playing in that era when I was just a goober playing in a basement LGS game room. I can still remember the first packs of ravnica I opened and falling in love seeing that Vraska booster display, that's the kind of art that sets Magic apart from other games. It's what drew so many of us in, and sank us deeper into that amazing fantasy world that Wizards created in that time. It was so good people bought it up like hot cakes. OG Ravnica boxes are getting really hard to find, like over 2k, moving into that high end category with onslaught and some other sets of that era. I'm definitely a ravnica stan, and I know it influenced a lot of other people the same way.

The typical LGS model is busted for this day in age. As much as I want to support them, I just can't justify paying upwards of eight bucks per pack when I can already buy these boxes for ~$160 online. If LGS' want to stay around they really need to explore other business options, like branching out to chains or franchises. The reason their prices are so high is because they buy such small amounts for their single stores. To be able to sell new product at reasonable prices they really need to be buying A LOT more, and distributing it themselves between multiple locations. In the early 00's I managed one of 14 chain stores, and our employee discount was 40%, which means the company was probably purchasing $130 boxes for about $55-60 each.

@@V1C10US It's a bit of a catch-22. Most LGSs don't have the capital, manpower, and knowledge to run a chain of stores. All three are things you gain by first running a single store and then slowly gaining the resources and knowledge to run multiple stores as you successfully run the single store. In today's environment, only the chain stores survive; but to become a chain of stores, you first have to survive as a single store.

Now it looks like Amazon conveniently lost the box. Guess I'll just wait a year for this to fall to $90 or just buy some shock lands. Shame on me for not going to my LGS I guess.

I am still in awe that they axed set boosters because players want a semblance of value for their money...a mere crumb of value. Whenever they do put some value in their packs, they charge such an insane premium (Cmdr. masters) for coloured cardboard that one is, khm, forced to proxy. So they got rid of set boosters because that is the product where players felt LEAST scammed. Draft is a limited format that not everyone may enjoy and that is the reason they sell less. It is only logical. People do, however, like to crack open boosters. And set boosters were decent and perfect product for that.
