So are these just that good, or is this the result of scalping?
This post is not against Star City Games in any way, shape, or form.
That said, the prices on Foundations collectors boxes have gone up higher than I've found for MH3 and Innistrad Remastered collectors, which for me have had better value over all. I like opening packs and I've struggled to find collector packs for Foundations, as well as even having a hard time finding regular packs, too.
I was able to open a couple Foundations collector packs during the prerelease event, and didn't realize how much the prices would go up, since I "only" paid $54 for two packs. I'm no stranger to scalping and scarcity, but people be acting like this cardboard is a fine wine with how much they charge for some of these things.
