Hmm I guess I get to post my Stasch story now. Someone at another MTG community directed me to this thread after I posted my ripoff story there.

Just over a day ago, the first card from the new set, Rise of the Eldrazi, was spoiled as most of you know. I was working a late shift and the lab I was stationed in was empty so I was browsing the web and came across Kozilek and thought, "Wow, the price on Eye of Ugin is a gonna jump like crazy!". Now I'm sure I'm not the only person who had this revelation and I'm sure some people had it way before me, but I immediately went to my favorite card website (store.tcgplayer.com) to see if that jump had occurred yet.

To my joy, I found that it had not, and I ordered 3 (already owning one from a booster) from MTGChicago.com at approx 5 bucks a pop which was the only 3 they had left. I was afraid that they might sell out of those 3 before my order was processed and ready, but those fears were put to rest when I received an email shortly after placing it saying the my order had been received and processed that my cards were ready to be packed and shipped.

More joy, I thought. To my dismay however, I received an email the next day saying that unfortunately they had run out of stock and were refunding my order. I thought, "Well that sucks, but I guess I wasn't quick enough" and on a whim I decided to check the new asking price. Despite the fact that the card was now going for 15 bucks, I noticed that MTGChicago was listed as having 4 copies for sale at 14.99. Odd, they told me they were out of stock.

So in short, I guess this is mostly venting as they said they will refund my purchase (which I have yet to receive), thought I felt it was pretty shitty business practice to go back on a purchase that was already completed simply because they saw an opportunity to make a slightly higher profit. Needless to say, I won't be ordering from them again.
