The difference between MtG and SPL, is that the latter is a digital product and the marketplace controlled centrally, whereas in MtG trades are done outside the controls of Wizards of the Coast.

WOTC therefore make nothing on the secondary sales, unlike Aggy and co who take a cut of the transaction fees. It would be years if anything like that would even be thought about I wager.

Sort:  

However, is there anything stopping trades done outside the central market? It still has to be written through an API to the chain somewhere, but it doesn't have to be controlled centrally - I think.

Trading is not an issue. Slob is talking about printing more cards. For example, all Zaku s are already printed (missing a few that are yet to be opened). There will be no more Zaku. Unless they print again... and I know they won't. Aggy himself was a MTG player and I am a Pokémon player. That's a big NO NO, in card games. I wouldn't worry about it.

What I wonder is, if there was a digital reprint, would it be able to be filtered out of "usage" by a secondary service. I don't think they would do this (as there is no need), just wondering.

There could be a centennial reprint edition! My grandkids may buy it :)
