They will be made unavailable at staff discretion due to projects, events, business at the time.

The reason for this change is that we have already had to limit the time people spend browsing these binders because they take advantage of them and will spend hours looking at them. This makes for a poor shopping experience for other customers. This also severely limits the amount of time staff get to complete other work duties that are critical. 

Binder browsing needs to be constantly supervised because they contain thousands of dollars worth of cards and customers often have lots of questions about things in them, so we cannot do other work while we have customers looking at binders, browsing the rest of the store, running events, and more. Further, we have run the numbers thoroughly and found that the time invested versus dollars made is actually quite poor. While we want to continue to offer them as a feature of the store we need to put these rules in place in order for them to make sense from a business standpoint.

We highly encourage everyone to come prepared with what they’re looking for so that we can best serve all customers who come to Parallax. 

The following rules that are already in place will still apply: You have 30 minutes, per person, per day to browse the binders. No, you cannot look for 5 minutes now, 20 minutes later, and 5 more minutes later than that. We are not going to keep track of that, especially based on the return-on-investment for the time and effort spent. You get one chance per day unless there are extreme extenuating circumstances. Pricing is done by TCGplayer.com “market price.” Only two people are allowed to be looking through binders at any given time as that is the amount of people we are comfortable serving while also attending to other customers, events, and projects.

We have no prior knowledge about Lorcana re-stocks of any set. How it happens is, the distributor will contact us when its back in stock and ask us if we want it. We say yes. They do not tell us a quantity or specifics, they just give us the allocation amount. As soon as they ask us if we want it, and we say yes, they ship it from Chicago. It will arrive in approximately 2-3 business days. Since a set was just released they will not have a restock for a least a few weeks to a few months. 

Unless its a pre-release event, all FNMs are going to be Modern Format, the last Friday of the month will be Legacy. Entry for the Modern/Legacy events will be $10, it will be 3 rounds of swiss pairings, minimum of four players needed, pack per win, always get a pack if you go 0-3.
