Kaffieen's comments are pretty spot on. You might give us some more focus on which way you'd like to go.

Also, if you're going Dimir, don't mess with Ravnica fatpacks.

You actually want to look at pack prices specifically, in buying cards. Fatpacks usually are the worst way to buy cards.
Consider this, a fatpack has 9 booster packs (and some lands, dice, etc).
Starcitygames (which is usually more expensive than most major card shops) sells gatecrash packs at 3$/per. So that's $27, to get those same 9 booster packs. You won't typically find fatpacks for less than ~$38 in a store. That means you're over paying bigtime buying fatpacks.

Don't buy boosters at walmart, you're almost always better off going to a game shop to buy them. Walmart charges $4 a booster. Card shops are usually 3.

There *are* ways to get cards for cheaper. I compete locally (in the south east), and my local card shop gives prizes in booster packs, boxes, and fatpacks. I generally sell fatpacks *all* the time. My post on that is here: http://deckbox.org/forum/viewtopic.php?id=6532

You can do the math, but if you're buying 2 or more, I can get them to you cheaper than *anywhere* else can

On to your deck. With direction, we can help you focus it a bit more. I can tell you Dimir is a very solid middle tier deck. Your local card shop probably has FNM (unless you live in the boonies, in which case you'll need to use wizard's site to find a place). They will have prizes for FNM. Different shops do it differently. Some charge some money to play in FNM, some don't. Free places typically don't have much prizes. If you're paying to play, you should get *at least* a booster ever time. Doesn't mean its the best way to get cards, but it's A way.

If you do well, they have prizes for the higher win-ratio players.

I will tell you, you can get a good dimir deck for a *lot* less money than a good Boros deck, or something else. However, the reason is: Dimir isn't as good. Plain and simple. I'm not saying it's bad, but other color combonations will win more frequently. Those decks are also going to be 2-5x as much money to build. It just all depends on what you're able to do.

I would absolutely make use of this site, and of cockatrice (google it) to learn what you want your deck to do FIRST. BEFORE investing in going a certain way.

Amazon is beautiful, I didn't know that. Thanks! I was just putting together an order for them

@Nevpicasso - I wish I had that kind of luck in drafts. I went 4-0 at the pre-release with that deck hands down, my LGS decided to do a top 8 5$ entry with our pre-release decks, with 2 fp's as the prize. Me and the final guy (who was running dimir mill) drew out undefeated at 6-0.

KMC's and the ultra matte's are both good. I prefer KMC's though, as the ultrapro matte's split much more often.

I split three of them in our modern PTQ a few weeks ago :\
(10 rounds)

Got some of the other stuff you need & A borb,

Start up a trade if you'd like.

I've got Opals and overseers. Feel free to browse/start a trade

I also am 99% sure I have atleast one of the shifting wall's. I'd have to dig through bulk, which I can do later. If you do start a trade, remind me of it please

I've got a Jitte, Opals, Overseers (since you're building affinity) and some of the other staples for it.

Shoot me a trade

I heard from tyler a week ago, but I'm not sending out until his stuff comes in. Tons of rep or not.

Sent you a trade

These were the guys that were selling boxes for a crazy price right? like 85$ a box or something?

I've got one, not NM though. It's got a bit of wear on the edges and stuff.

Glad to hear you got some awesome pulls Vexxecon!

Thanks

More updated inventory!
