This Magic: The Gathering x Lord of the Rings crossover brought serious hype — and serious profit — with pre-release buyers flipping unopened boxes.
Stone Island’s PROTOTYPE RESEARCH_SERIES 07 drop was surrounded by secrecy, hype, and collector frenzy. No exact drop time was confirmed, even store staff were in the dark. But House of Resell members were prepped in advance — creating accounts, saving details, and ready to pounce once the product appeared on the site. With only ~70 units likely made available to the public, this drop became a battle of speed + prep. The 14-day refund window made it lower risk despite the high ticket price. True to form, Stone Island’s limited drops consistently appreciate, and this one was no exception.
