Voucher Pools, Voucher Shuffling and How the People Doing It are Stealing from You!

avatar

Theft from the less Fortunate

Is a time honored tradition, amongst The Whales. The BEST is when they can convince The Poors to PAY them to steal from them! Voucher Pools are just the latest example of how the less scrupulous amongst us connive to separate the less well-off from their DEC. They are OFFERING you the opportunity to send them your Vouchers and your SPS- and in return, THEY will buy your packs FOR you- during the Pre-Sale! What a deal, AmIrite? Send them- .87 Vouchers and $3.20 worth of SPS and in return- they will send you back a PACK of Chaos Legion cards! People, are lining up to be Fleeced in this way...

Voucher Shuffling or selling Chaos Legion packs on Hive-Engine

is simply a more honest form of this same theft- they use the vouchers to buy the packs, then sell the packs for WAY more than they're worth on the market. In this way, they are doing the same thing as the 'Poolers' but, really, in a more honest way.
Why do I say 'WAY more than they're worth'?
Because a pack of CL cards, on day one, will probably be worth about 2-3x face value. Face value, of course, is $4- so CL packs? On day one? $8-$10 worth of cards. Yet, these whales are buying the packs, then selling them for $16 on the market- they're making money BOTH ways!
First- they're selling you a $10 pack for $16
Second- since they were the one to buy the pack- they get the NFT, the Promo cards and all, ALL, the Air Dropped cards from those purchases. They are simply asking YOU to subsidize their gains.

How is this Theft?

Because, Vouchers have VALUE. Being the account that purchases the packs- has a real benefit. When you send someone your vouchers and your $$, you get the packs, yes, but THEY get the benefits. When you buy a pack off Hive-Engine? Same deal- They have already reaped the benefits of BUYING the pack and now, they are selling you $8 worth of cards for $16 and since the cost of a Voucher + the pack is more than $16, right now, you are HAPPY to pay it.

What is the Value of a Voucher?

Or what's the big deal?
Each pack purchased is worth .1% of the Title, 2% of a Promo card (think Halfling, x3) and .67% of 13 Air dropped cards (think Yodin). That's not much, true, but in the aggregate? It really adds up....
People send Bulldog 2,000 vouchers? he gets:
2 NFTs (worth 100K DEC each)
40 Promo, Legendary, cards
10 copies, each, of the 13 Air Dropped cards over the course of the Chaos Legion sale.
What do the participants get? Slightly cheaper packs, which will depreciate as the sale goes on.

It #Sickens me. The Voucher Shufflers are more honest, in their theft.

Packs of Chaos Legion are worth $8, don't buy them for any more than that.
If you want to Pool, to get cheaper packs, do it with friends or, like my Guild, do it in your Guild to get a more equitable share of future value.

Otherwise, go into the deal with Eyes Wide Open. Know that you are paying them to steal from you.
