I bought the Starter Kit and two set boosters though I don't even plan to play Magic. I got them for the art and they didn't disappoint at all. From the first pack I pulled one of the nicest art card: Gandalf the White and further Gandalf, Friend of the Shire, Sméagol and Elrond so a bunch of the characters I wanted. I will use them as bookmarks, I used to read a lot of fantasy.
Hello from Spain!!!! So nice having someone explaining everything so thoroughly for us, beginners!!!:) and thanks for the give aways!! You are super kind!!:)))❤
The hype has been fun. My beefed up Food and Fellowship deck is an EDH blast. And I can't wait to open my Gift Bundle (but I'll probably keep a couple of them sealed) 😊
If you look at the pure card value (packs retail 5.50$), there is 165$ in for the 30p Booster, and 88$ in the 16p Bundle. Bundle foil rings retail for 35$, and there are 2. Box toppers also have exclusive cards, so we'll value them at least 10$ to be fair. Just the cards total out to 158$ for the bundle, and 175$ for the Booster. If we are talking about collector stuff too, the dice retail for 20$ dollars, and the card boxes/foil lands are worth mentioning. Either way the value is close, but the box topper makes the difference between the two, unless you count the collector's merch. Almost half the box toppers are worth 15-40$, and you could even get a surge foil. So, the Bundle is best if you really want to get a guaranteed ring, and don't want to commit to buying a full booster. Even if you do want the booster, a guaranteed ring is pretty nice when they retail for 35$. Either way you probably aren't going to get booster before a bundle. If you have somehow had a ring, it is probably worth saving for the booster. Otherwise get that free 35$ mythic.
I think what you do here is unique in that you compare products and sell the contents. I like seeing if they actually sell. I have a foil spiteful banditry for sale but no takers, but of course Australian market is very different than EU market. Keep up the great content and I’d like to know if you actually have built and played a deck from the LOTR set.
in the usa, the set booster boxes are ~$160 and the bundles are ~$60...in my opinion, the 2 bundles are a better value (at least in the states). just subbed!
I think nothing can really compare to the value of a bundle. The guranteed promos are so expensive, that the risk of losing at lot of money is very low.
its kinda crazy how set/ draft boxes r like 90% topper. you are garneted value in the bundle so the choice seems obvious but gambler mentality be hittin hard for some lol.
I am very curious to see how the cards / sealed products will behave now that the one of one ring has been found. FINGERS Xd for your opening-value mate!
only problem with these comparisons is that there aint no way right now to even get set boxes at 160 anymore :/ I hope the price will cool down again with some restocks

Those full Art lands are great for bookmarks 🔖
Love the videos! Just a tip: rescan all your “Reprieve” cards. $
Can we just take a moment to appreciate the art of this set? It's gorgeous.
Thank you so much for the videos!

2 halflings and 1 nazgul in just one bundle. That was pretty nice
Hey, first video ive seen from you. Started playing MTG a month ago. This video is pretty hype. Nice content

Heyho, nice comparison! Wich app are you using there? And is it using the german cardmarket prices or wich ones?
Great video, can you talk about the one ring found and the prices of the collector boosters and how will this affect the price of cards in general?
I'm glad you got sponsored and I hope you get to keep doing what you enjoy!
in the usa, the set booster boxes are ~$160 and the bundles are ~$60...in my opinion, the 2 bundles are a better value (at least in the states). just subbed!
Now if only I could find the bundles haha
Absolutely love this set. So much fun to be had with the food synergies.
nice to see how different products fares on the financial aspect. its good to see more of these videos. more power to you sir. kudos!
Love the extras that come with the bundles. The D20 is gorgeous.
Many prices from the Scanner are wrong btw, for example the mithril cloak us not worth 6 bucks
Been loving these videos. watched the one with the path of the dead box topper. that was awesome
What online market place does delver lens use? Is it tcgplayer?
The art is amazing for these cards.
good call on the subscribe setting
Where do you buy your magic stuff
Love seeing these boxes get cracked. I'm hooked on the LOTR set!!!
These comparisons a great. Will you make some Videos on the gift bundles which will get released on july 7th too?
Hello, a great video, I have subscribed to the channel, what utility do you use to see the card price? Regards
its an app called manabox :)
@@tcgloveopenings thank you very much
That was good comparison, it seems like more variety of cards in set booster box
Super nice comparison as always! Sell all the collectors, the one trying has been found!
nice bundle, in my country the promo ring in some stores cost as much as a bundle
What is the app that scans?
Interesting for sure. Seems the box topper really makes a huge difference in the box price considering you can get Ancient Tomb.
just got back into playing magic, because i love lord of the rings, great video. keep it up!
Pretty good pulls overall for a bundle.
I'm loving this opennings
I think nothing can really compare to the value of a bundle. The guranteed promos are so expensive, that the risk of losing at lot of money is very low.
I love lord of the rings and caused me to get this same bundle as my first magic cards and I love them!
My understanding the box topper is always normal foil and thats the only place to get normal foil, surge are only in 1% of collector packs.
New to magic cause of the Lord of the rings. Love seeing all the cards and hope to pick up a box on the fiture
its kinda crazy how set/ draft boxes r like 90% topper. you are garneted value in the bundle so the choice seems obvious but gambler mentality be hittin hard for some lol.
Wonder if WOTC will get class actioned for hiking the prices on these...
I am very curious to see how the cards / sealed products will behave now that the one of one ring has been found. FINGERS Xd for your opening-value mate!
I have been watching your videos for a while now. I like your style so will hop on the sub-train :-)
My friends just tought me how to play magic and I got "Food and Fellowship" precon as my first deck!
i'm sorry for your loss, dear friend
The one ring in the bundles almost guarantees victory by itself
I like these comparison videos
only problem with these comparisons is that there aint no way right now to even get set boxes at 160 anymore :/ I hope the price will cool down again with some restocks
The Set Booster was not disappointing at all, but the bundles made even better than i thougt (get the ring so easy is cheeky ^^)
Great breakdown 👌 Definitely liking the set boosters a little more just my opinion
Now I'm already watching unboxing videos because I'm obsessed with LoTR and want to collect all the cards.
now that the one ring is found I really hope, that the prices will cool down a little bit.
Great unboxing! Love this set
Awesome pulls👍
Even if you already gave away the bundle, i definitely subscribed and liked 👍
Gretchen Video again! TY
Love row LOTR sets!
This set booster box in particular was very promising
I hope the gift bundles come down in price now that the one ring has been found.
Great video as always :)
Love this set
Thanks for the video!
Love LOTR openings
Lets gooo GL on the Raffle everybody
Bought some set and draft booster and had mediocre luck🤷🏻🤗
I hope to get a sol ring
Thx for great comparison :-)
These the one Ring Cards realy do some heavy lifting :D
damn bro i wish i win the bundle cause its out of stock everywhere
I’m howling that I can pull a Nazgûl from my bundle pack. I’m a open it later tonight 🤞🏽
Oh wait. You are german. Freut mich deinen Kanal kennenzulernen 😁
Great comparison!! i wish i could afford either lol
The Bundles are definitely worth it
Ive got the same ring. not real gold tho. I wear it when I binge the movies.
You skipped over a Shadowfax tho. He’s not worth too much maybe $1.50 but it’s Shadowfax!
Damn, bundles are quite expensive in Europe.
Just boxes everywhere 😂
I just spent an insane amount of money on this set but not regreting nothing😅
Another great vid
I guess the market will correct itself and in 6 months everything will be around half their prices
Nice cards
I have another 3 bundles at home sealed
Hey, im a new sub, nice to meet your channel! ;D
Rather glad I don't have the money to buy any of these; I'll live through your purchases instead!
Great content
I looks cool to open that many booster
@@tcgloveopenings what's the app?
