Always leery about buying loose packs, due to box mapping. Packs like this are also super easy to open, search, and reseal. Good luck to those of you brave enough to go for it but I'll pass...

AtriumXP@AtriumXP I completely understand your concern, especially with the recent scares of booster pack mapping. Suffice to say, I can assure you that these packs go straight from a sealed box and right into the packages that arrive at your doorstep. I would understand more if we offered single packs, but there is no reason for us to hold on to anything. Since we are just the in-between for you and the vendor (in order to get the lower prices), and we only order enough for the drop, there is no reason for us to take the time to map out boxes or packs.
I hope this makes sense! If not, just @ me and I'll be happy to go into further explanation.

ArchmageIt wasn't meant as an accusation; it's just a warning as some players may be unaware this happens. These specific packs were poorly manufactured by WotC (or whichever vendor they used for packaging this product) and it is well-known the glue comes easily undone and can be replaced. This was discovered immediately after the product was released and stirred much discussion among players and shop owners.

AtriumXP@AtriumXP Oh yes, I agree, the packs are VERY easy to tamper with. I just wanted to clarify that this is not something we do at Massdrop!
And yes, it was a fairly bad idea on WotC's half, and they owned up to it. I can see the whole "protect the environment with cardboard packs" angle, but yeah. I'm glad they aren't doing this with Eternal Masters.
