    It was so bad I can't even watch this due to PTSD. 14 boxes at 450-500 each. 6300-7000 spent to gain 4 legendary cards worth 150-200 each. Life lesson learned.

I hold some product and will see where things go, but I have no faith in LSS currently due to their recent underhanded shenanigans, but I still hold out hope for their redemption.

    What an interesting story and interesting product. The flesh and blood market as a whole feels super cheap to me. Does anyone else feel that way? It feels so cheap, and has for a long enough time that it’s kind of a bummer tbh. I often think to myself, if only I knew where we would be at in 2 years. Ofc everyone feels like that about just about everything.
    I believe in the game and think that prices will go up. I just wonder how long that’s gonna take. I suppose I’m in it for the long haul regardless though. Thanks for the video rudy

    Of course there is a correlation between cards and crypto's. If you dont value money and spend a house worth of money on a position on a blockchain that tells you you own 10 coins you will also drop a milli dollars in some cardboard and other non essential stuff.

    Yeah, prices drop when demand is suddenly (much) lower than supply. Too many boxes. Too many cold foil commons. It'll take many months (40+ I'd say, maybe even 5+ years) for MON to reach its old highs once again. And who knows, in 10 years it can even reach the famous 1k

    RUDY! Except for the very rare LGS that sold Monarch 1st at MSRP on release (most sellers sold at highly inflated prices relative to MSRP, cough cough Rudy, cough cough), Monarch 1st Edition is not now and never has been valued as low as MSRP. It's a total failure of a product. Hence, every TCG/CCG set that has sold predominately at MSRP or below upon release and after release must be considered to be total dumpster fire failures much worse than Monarch 1st Edition.
