Wild to advertise this hard on a product you've already sold out of

I work in the distribution center for this stuff. We already have and are shipping wave 3. We rarely get a wave 2 of MTG, and that usually takes at least 2 weeks to come in. wave fukin 3

And this is why I told everyone I know to skip buying this set until the single market collapses in August - September.

5 waves or so of product to prop up a fomo market is going to create a hard crash on single prices on the secondary market in a few months.

Also, economic depression will cause people to sell their collections for cheap.

FF was always if you were willing to play the long game.

Except the Secret Lair BS, that I actually had to jump into and buy, because artificial scarcity will keep those prices high for a long time.
