168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Magic: The Gathering can be an expensive hobby, which sometimes makes it the target for high-profile thefts. A board game cafe in Guelph, Ontario is suffering from just such a heist after thieves maꩵde off with $200,0𒐪00 in product following a break-in last weekend.
Video surveillance caught two male suspects breaking into the Round Table Board Game Café at 3:45 AM last Saturday morning. The two thieves targeted valuable items, including a $3,000 bottle of scotch whiskey, several electronics, and an extensive Magic: The Gathering collection that the store owners had been collectin💞g for six years.
In addition to the store’s Magic cards, store owner Thomas Gofton had hi☂s own personal Magic collection🉐 stolen, which he estimated to be worth $15,000.
“Fa🥃tigue on the heart in the fact that it took me years to build this,” Gofton told . “This was built from a community of people. From our Kitchener location and our Guelph location. This is a collection of people that has spent their lives and their time here building this collection with us.”
Guelph Police noted its abnormal to se༒e a theft with such high dollar values in its jurisdiction. “[It’s] a very popular game,” Gofton explained. “Huge stock market like prices, It’s got an ebb and flow to it and high collectability.”
That collectability can sometimes result in sky-high prices for rare and valuable cards. The rarest can even reach into the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Gofton said he plans to host a party this weekend where local gamers can help offset at least part of the cafe’s 🧜losses, adding to CTV that he has no plans to replace his personal co♓llection.
Magic Online players who take part in Pauper League events will 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:soon get a few free common cards. Wizards of the Coast said that supply issues with Commander Legends: Battle for Baldur's Gate have resulted in a lack of certain commons, so Wizards is waving its magic wand to send out two copies of 38 "key" commons from the set.
