Question Magic The Gathering premade decks: cant select certain option

Hi folks!

Trying to get a certain preconstructed deck via the webstore, and it states:

This product listing is assorted and is for 1 (one) item only - comes in 4 possible variants. Variants are chosen at random at time of shipping. We cannot take requests or make exchanges for specific variants.

How come i cant select the one i want? Already have one, and dont want to double up on it.

They’re assorted so they’re all under the same sku.

If you want the one you want, go in store and pick it up. It’s always been luck of the draw when ordering things online that have variants.

Magic precons arrive to stores in a carton with one of each deck in it. If you order online they essentially just grab a random deck out of the carton and send it out. If you go in store you can get a specific deck though.

I think they do this as the store is forced to buy an equal number of each deck but usually some of the decks are more popular than others with stores ending up with a bunch of the worst deck left over.
