It's first time for them for a rare.

Conceptually, I don't get how you can sell out of a product you don't even have in the first place?
They have them, they probably have a room full of people ripping packs, which would be how they got things in and out of stock

They haven't been released yet.

Not to the players, it's probably already stocked at the distributors!

If you open X boxes, the probability of getting a rare card is Y. They know how many they are likely to get and with the number of boxes they open it's pretty accurate too.

Would you happen to know Y, Piotr?

It depends on the size of the set. Look at the number of rares, and that will tell you the odds of any given rare.

Poof

There us usually like 50 rares in a set? And u get one per pack so 1/50 chance of getting one but I have gotten 3 of the same rare in one box so there is variance
