    Of note is the weekly update for asmodee. The way they worded the fact they are sold out leads me to think they thought they over printed the first print run. They still sold out. Will need two or three more large print runs to keep prices down.

  • @Brigmz
    @Brigmz 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    This isn't some mystery for you to speculate. Asmodee sent an email to stores that they were out of product. That email hit the general public via the subreddit this morning. At that time and for an hour or two later you could still buy boxes for at or under MSRP on TCG Player, Stomping Grounds and Amazon.
    After that period as more people found out it created a run on the product. The scalpers and speculators caught wind and started buying product as well so they could boost the price as they always do.
    TLDR: This isn't some market trend, Asmodee ran out and as people learned this they rushed to get their hands on what they could. The inflated price you see now is scalpers leeching the market as they always inevitably do.

  • @lucasbockhorst4191
    @lucasbockhorst4191 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I’m not sure the supply is all that limited. Miniature Market, which is owned by Asmodee, has them for 120 a piece with 20+ in stock. It makes sense that other distributors wouldn’t get as much versus Asmodee’s own retail chain.

    I can't blame them for not anticipating this level of demand. If they were gauging the "buzz", they had people like me who were openly hostile towards the game...and I just snuck in an order for boxes 5-6 yesterday since it seemed likely this shortfall was happening and it could be a few months until supply is back.
    Hope the next print run or two aren't too long, since we'll want plenty of supply for sealed and draft and there is still a lot of interest. But I'll take a cooling off period to all my opening!

  • @thehikingcucumber3410
    @thehikingcucumber3410 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I like the game because it doesn’t feature too many sequel characters. What this proves, imo, is the original trilogy, rogue 1, and clone wars is very popular. The art is extremely hit or miss, but I think they should improve on this for future releases. Game mechanics is fun, we are enjoying it. If sequel trilogy cards start to come in and dominate, I indeed will lose enthusiasm.

    it is simple WOTC is screwing up and a few games have the magic combo 1 collectability 2 playability 3 a well liked source 4 good spread and availability. Now star wars is the perfect storm of a game with all 4 hits i liked the game play. While there are some art i dident like for the most part i like it. now i do feel that some of the game play needs to be adjusted a little and me and a few friends play it with what we feel is a better game play the basic game play is fun especially when playing multi player.. So in short i have hi hope for this game and want to see where it goes

    Here's an interesting take for you Josh. I've played one game and enjoyed it so much. That I think this might be my 1v1 game of choice when it comes to tcgs. Standard, modern etc are too expensive. And I want to play with cool cards (imo). So pauper doesn't work for me.
    Ps. I heard from a cdn store that wave 2 of boxes is being released in April. Hopefully it's a healthy restock

    • @HometownTcg
      @HometownTcg  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I think the restock will LIKELY be healthy but it’s hard to tell tbh - If not things might get wild.
      That isn’t the wildest thing I have ever heard about 1v1! If you’re having fun and can get games that’s what matters most!
      The thing that I would caution you against is just remembering anything can happen with new games, though I’ll say this one seems really stable

    I dont see boxes going up to that high. $150 max maybe. I have 3 LGS's near me, including one that is a chain, and they are selling boxes of this from as low as $95 and as high as $119. The one selling for $95 is sitting on around 8 cases of this and the one at $119 has about 12 cases. The chain store was selling them at $99 and were down to a case and a half left. The product is available but you have to look and dont fall for FOMO.

      I have heard from stores opening boxes as well as people in the HTTCG community experiencing showcases being one per case but I have also heard that stories of cases without. It’s too soon to tell but my “smell test” is that they are meant to be case hits on average. Take that with a grain of salt - im just a guy in his basement who loves TCGs - im no expert.

    It's because inventory dried up, and LGS dont have product now. Until April 1st.
    What are you talking about? Lorcana was selling at $350 a box. It was selling at multiple prices. It's selling now at $248. It's always sold.
    My issue with this is that the chase cards are not selling as well. Boba only had 4 sales on the 19th. Nothing was recorded on the 20th. One sale on the 13th. Even Han Solo only had 4 on the 19th at $300. That to me isn't good.
    Compared to Lorcana Elsa, who had 6 sales between $800-$930 on the 20th.
    Star Wars isn't what it used to be. To make Boba Fett the chase card was a bad decision in itself. He's such an overrated character. Barely any lines in the movie. Vader should've been the chase.

  • @le_med
    @le_med 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I am not sure if you get that the reason why the product is called 'Unlimited' is because the publisher has stated that the cards will be printed to oblivion i.e in unlimited fashion for people to be able to play it for cheap and have random pack decks at LGSs. They are purposefully targetting a at or sub $100 per box. Hence thinking that this has a leg as an investment is rather laughable.

    • @sideshowonacid
      @sideshowonacid 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      If the game sticks around then the first set boxes will have value. No company will go back and print a product that’s 3+ years old. Pokemon has stated the same thing….nobody should be spending more then maybe 110 a box right now, but long term it will definitely have value.
