Not many FLGS owners I’ve met in the last 20 years would’ve tried that sheisty tactic. Sorry that was your experience.
To be fair to your memory of it, imagine what would’ve happened had you pulled it from the booster? Nevermind the nat-20 IRL that would’ve been 🤌🏼, I’m talking about the selling it too soon or hemming & hawing over it until the stress clinched it (see: the former). You’re better off without that Black Lotus, most likely.
I was literally gambling at that point. Though I honestly just wanted one so I could sell or trade for Juzam Djinns. All because I got absolutely wrecked by them at the little tourneys they held at the shop.
They shut down abruptly and I remember starting to go to other local shops and quickly learning they deserved to be closed.
I spent a lot of money on 4th edition because I was told there were still Black Lotus by the card shop owner.
Cracking MtG packs though… booster drafts were so much fun with a small group.

Like they say, “The story’s not in the crits.” 🤘🏼

Karma’s a mofo. Especially around magic math rocks. 🤌🏼
