@PokeDuelsTikTok Youre missing that the prizing wasnt free(minus entry)
Theres
travel
Accom
Food/drink
Cost of cards
Time spent play testing
I would guess alot of times a box at scalper price wont cover this//barely cover this.
Its also morally different to scalping (trying to profit vs win)
@Sokittoya1@atomicmassgames It would also be alot more expensive
First they need to find a place with the right conditions, ventilation etc
Then buy a couple thousand 3d printers
Then the resin
Then higher staff, train them etc etc
Youre talking alot of money and a few years of delays
@LordStryker@atomicmassgames This was a little tongue and cheek
Over the last few years they have had a bunch of shipping issues etc, some have been world events, some undisclosed
Im in the uk for example and its currently looking like we wont get the march mcp release this month and no announcement
@MamaMagicGwen a little more context the table fee is £3.50 per day
It comes with access to all the terrain for wargaming etc
The commander players on these nights would also kinda demand all the possible benefits (like all the promo packs possible, promos etc) but not really support the store
@MamaMagicGwen LGS has always had a table fee but most of the time it’s used by wargammers
used to host free commander nights but realised the players would come in, spend nothing etc
They introduced a cost of “buying a pack” and it lost about 5 ish players on one of the 2 nights per week
