Скачать или смотреть Why Stores Panic Sell Magic (But Not Pokémon or One Piece)

While researching a recent Rogue Market video on Standard Play Boosters, (   • Are Standard Play Boosters Finally Good Bu...  ) I noticed something interesting about how stores are behaving in the current TCG market.

Stores seem far more hesitant to hold Magic: The Gathering product long term than they used to.

When MTG supply increases or reprints hit, we often see the same pattern:
Stores rushing to clear inventory. Undercutting each other on TCGplayer and eBay. A race to recoup capital

But what's interesting is that this behavior doesn't seem to happen the same way in Pokémon or One Piece.

Even when supply is high in those games, sellers don't appear nearly as eager to panic sell.

So the question becomes:

What changed with Magic?

Is it: Loss of confidence from stores?
The memory of Amazon dumps?
Too many sets that were overhyped but underperformed?
Uncertainty around Wizards of the Coast's print and reprint policies?

Or is something else happening entirely?

In this vlog-style video I share my observations from the distribution side and discuss how store behavior around MTG inventory may be shifting.

Because one thing seems clear: The market has changed and stores are adapting.
