Zalmun posted:Has anyone here had experience with insuring a MTG collection? I'm looking to insure my collection and finding agents that have no clue what to do with a MTG collection, and giving ridiculous terms for doing so (at least in Canada). I think often there's a limit on your policy for sports cards and collectibles. Ask your agent what that limit is and if necessary you'll need an endorsement to increase it to the value of your collection. Mine was that way anyway

it's probably just 'hey these markets don't sell as much as the rest and we need to beef up production in other languages due to the continued covid-related strangle on distribution'

I personally think that private businesses cutting off their ties (and thus hurting their profits) from a country engaging in an insane war of conquest (and possibly genocide) and making it minorly inconvenient (we are talking about buying magic cards ffs) for a segment of its population to carry on like nothing is happening, is pretty good.

You did not answer my question. Pablo Nergigante posted:Agreed, which is why Wizards should stop doing business in the United States of America e: in any event I doubt WotC is cancelling Russian language products over the war, last I checked China and Korea weren't actively at war with anyone else and considering all three decisions came down at once, it's probably some kind of number-crunching thing that will marginally increase profits or whatever Judgy Fucker fucked around with this message at 21:34 on Jul 19, 2022 |

Lol just catchin' up with the Magic thread, hey guys, how's it going, oh... oh, oh boy, gently caress, there's gonna be reports. Yup. Sure enough. Lots of reports. Hey OK so we don't all agree on politics in here, but that's OK, because this is the magic thread and not C-SPAM or D&D. If you'd like to discuss the badness of Wizards of the Coast I think the Industry thread is sorta-acceptable. Don't have that fight here. But also please reconsider talking about poo poo like how America and Russia are the same, actually, at all, anywhere. That's not a moderator instruction, just friendly advice from me, your fellow poster Leperflesh.
