Title: Got 10 packs at FNM tonight.
Post by: Kaalia with haste on April 11, 2015, 12:23:50 AM
Just super stoked, I usually do pretty well but then I lose in round 1 of top 8.. Today the entire top 4 just drew to split everything and got 10 packs.

Guys you need to ask your lgs to do store credit over packs. Packs are fun and all but store credit is how you build modern/ legacy collections. Worst case you can choose your packs with sc

I traded most of my packs in for 2 bucks store credit a piece. I'm fine with the option in case you want to open some packs.

I don't want legacy, they don't have the cards I need for modern, aside from {Noble heirarch} (they only have the judge foil version, and it's pricey). They are literal out of stock of the stuff I need. Unless I decide to get more dice, sleeves, mats, etc, I'm better off cracking packs.

My lgs is $25 to first, $12 to second, and $6 to third, the best part is no entry fee and everybody is usually chill, smaller group though, maybe 10-15 people.

No entry fee? Or no extra besides buying the packs?

My store has $2/person in the draft pod to first and $1/person in the pod to second. Kinda low prizes, guess that's what I get for choosing the small store that's a lot more fun to be at than the big store where the people aren't so nice. :P

$5 in la with terrible prize support
Asking for store credit is absurd instead of packs, usually most stores give $2 per pack. You can easily open the set right now and get an ojutai which stores in my area are paying $15 for currently. Set is value right now, open prize packs and flip while you can

Mine is $13 to draft, and 5 packs for first. I'm happy cracking packs. I even pulled a {deathmist raptor} in the draft.

Post by: Ekann1 on April 11, 2015, 12:23:47 PM
$15 to draft, the equivalent of 4 packs in store credit for first. Problem is, my store is a small comic book store that just got into singles very recently so there's not much useful to buy with the store credit.!

They did have a name but they keep changing it. Right now it's called small town collectibles but it started out library games because it's across the street from the public library

Total bs. Talk to any business owner they need a name before they can open a business. There are a lot of forms and paperwork that needed to be completed before they can open. Unless this magical town doesn't require companies to have insurance.

Munch. I'm gonna ask you this one time. Please stop lying. Just be yourself. Stop making these silly lies. It really irks me for some reason when people lie. And I will continue to call out your bs. So again please stop with the lies.

Without saying Munch is telling the truth or no: a business can have a name while the store doesn't. The business behind it can be like MTG Hicksville inc. but likely that won't be the name of the store. It is however pretty bad business not to name your store or to keep changing it.
