A certain period for restocking merchant?

So far many useful SF cards are out of stock. They are rare to get even from Booster packs (I opened 150, still can't get several good cards). And even worse, the KS reward of 1x every SF card seems still a long way to go...
Do we have a fixed period of restocking merchant? If not currently, can we have one? 1 week would be good enough.

Great question

+ How often is it restocked
+ How is the amount of stock supplied calculated?

is there a limit for number of copies of a single card per account?
that sounds like a reasonable solution to the problem...

The problem of not having cards available at all times is that new players to the game will see a deck on the forum and will want to build it. They grind and grind for gold or even purchase SC so they can sell or hopefully obtain the cards they need through boosters. They'll go to the merchant and for some reason can't find the cards they are wanting because they are out of stock. Some may wait for the restock or some newer players will think iits a joke and quit the game because they can't build a deck to be competitive in the QM because they can't get the cards they need. As a business I would think Wulven would want to keep there new players for they are potential revenue for them.

The merchant does restock regularly by opening packs himself. The stock also goes up when people sell their cards. I think it's normal for rare cards to be low in stock for a new set, that's why they call them 'rare'. The same happens in a physical TCG, when the set first comes out it might be difficult to buy all the singles you want.

But I do realize this is a point of frustration for some people. The upcoming player auctions might solve that, you'll just likely have to pay a really high price for something if not too many people are selling it.
