Your Bi-Weekly Update with Willis 24-07-2023

Hi All,

Invercargill last weekend was incredible and if these events keep happening I will definitely be back. We picked up loads of stock, a lot of which has now gone into the store. Not everything we picked up is entering the store as we still have a 17K debt to pay off and that has to take priority. One example of this is an Alpha Braingeyser we got. We are planning to ship that out to Card Kingdom in the next few days, but I thought I'd mention it here in case there are actually any serious offers on it within NZ before it goes. The Winner of the Undy Hundy has been playing 25+ years, and with this victory he acquires his first ever playmat.

In other news our Store now has a remind me when back in stock feature. This is fundamentally different from our Wishlist app and as such adding items to your Wishlist will not get a reminder sent out. The Wishlist is purely for you to remind yourself of what you are interested in, but I may end up deleting it if it becomes too confusing.

The notification when items are back in stock that we have is not the most ideal, for example, you have to set up a different reminder per condition (IE NM, PL, Foil Etc..), but it felt better than the alternative. I did find an option that was Wishlist inclusive, but it also comes with the drawback that if a card remains out of stock for 60 days, your reminder request gets thrown out. That might be OK for some, but I definitely don't like the sound of it.

That wraps up everything I have to talk about this week. There won't be an update next week, but I should be back the week after.
