WotC - Speeding Up Secret Lair Shipping (magic.wizards.com)

Tl;dr: they're switching from print to demand to limited print runs for Secret Lairs

I can't see how this is good. The few times I've gotten a Secret Lair I found their shipping pretty quick, and limited print runs only encourage scalpers to buy out and jack up the prices. But I feel like Wizards is fine with that as long as it creates more FOMO.

Oh my fuck secret lair being print to order was the whole point. They've gone back to the scarcity bullshit that FTV and other limited sealed products were but also cut out LGS. So they fixed one problem, created another, then unfixed the first problem.

Fuck hasbro or wotc or whoever is making these fucking decisions.
