  Went to a MTG booster draft here last week. Met the owner and he explained he has a few stores across Massachusetts. I ended up going 3-0 in the draft and was very surprised, at the end, to find out there were no prizes for winning whatsoever. This was the first time I have ever seen this at a booster draft and it rubbed me the wrong way. It would be one thing if the draft was very inexpensive (I have seen $5-10 drafts with minimal prize support, although even then the winner at least gets an additional pack), but this was $20 draft cost for Bloomburrow, a set which play packs go for $5 a piece. Of course I was drafting to win as the expectation is that there are always prizes. If I had known that winning essentially served no purpose, I would have simply value drafted, and even then it would probably have been better to get 3 packs of Bloomburrow for $15. On top of that, there was limited product available for sale and all of it overpriced. I was considering buying a collector booster at the end which had a market price of $20. I asked if they could be flexible at all since it was marked up at $30. The answer was no. I came away from this store with a pretty poor experience and probably will not return. I hope the owner considers changing drafting prize policy. Edit to reply to the owner below: many stores are doing chocobo racing and 90% of them have at least a pack per win. Of course you can get a small poster and a pin at any location if you go at a minimum 4 times in a row. Which, at this store with no prizes, would be a poor choice given, even in an absolute miracle scenario in which you won every round youd play, youd end up overpaying $100 for ~12 random packs of editions you problaby weren't too into. I went to a chocobo racing $25 final fantasy draft the next day that drafted actual FF packs and had a pack per win plus all the same promos. Also, saying you charge retail for FF is like me saying I charge pennies for diamonds. Neither of us have any to sell. That is why we were drafting a less desirable set. I had put my review at 2 stars because the owner had the basic modicom of pleasantness when I met him, but the below reply does not feel like it has acknowledged my concern im the slightest, so I have reduced to one star and will be firm in taking my business elsewhere.
