In my decklists I have a section for draft decks.  I play in tournaments and we us deckboxes' events feature.  However I can not have the event collect the information for my deck since it is labeled as 'incomplete'.  Also it is labeled as 'standard'.  First I think that draft should be a proper label.  Secondly, I believe that manual options for labeling a deck should be created.  If I use all Modern cards in a legacy or vintage deck deckbox would label it automatically as modern despite it being used in a different format.  Could manual labeling be an option in addition to the automatic settings for decks?  Can 'Draft deck' be a format much like 'Standard', 'Modern', 'Legacy' etc?  Could both be implemented since not all draft decks will consist of 40 cards?  Can 'Tiny Leaders' be a format please?

I would like to host a consistent day and time for either EDH or casual games of Magic.  I would like to know if other people are interested in EDH or casual games of magic and what day and times are best.  I know I won't be able to accommodate every persons needs but i'll do my best.  I do stress the casual nature of these future events.  Competitive Magic is and can be fun.  However so to is casual where you can try out ideas, play with cards you like that aren't just tournament scene cards, create all new decks to taste the variety of flavors that is Magic the Gathering.  I hope casual will also keep people interested in Magic as both a hobby and a game.  These events will be multi-player in format.  We can also adjust formats from week to week as well.  Formats I can think of:  EDH, Little Commander, Pauper EDH, Pauper, Planechase, Vanguard, Cube.

Times that work for me:  Mon/Tues/Thurs after 6pm.  Saturday from 1pm-midnight, Sunday 10am-10pm.

I have had an issue with the Event Calender for a while.  I post an event, people accept/reject, then the day of the event the accept/reject/question is gone.  Can the deckbox team still make the participants still viewable during the day of the event (perhaps forever) please?

Thank you for all the fantastic information!

So many of the little stores are on tcgplayer that it almost doesn't make sense to look for them individually.

You have a very good point.  My counter to that, which you mentioned would be sealed product.  There are other sites listed above that are the same as tcgplayer. 

Other reasons would be if something happens to these bazaar websites there is an individual list.  TCGPlayer charges tax for those in NY state so different options may be helpful to avoid the extra money.  Not everything is listed on TCGPlayer.  I also am a firm believer in a variety of options from a psychological viewpoint over a one stop shop.

Can anyone help with more websites?  Places that sell only sealed product please include no matter how big or small.  Places that sell cards, stores that sell, anything.

Lowered the price of the foil Metalworkers.

Heya, I haven't been playing magic for a good while now, looking to get rid of most of my extra cards that I'm not using. Thanks for browsing smile.

I'm willing to purchase your entire collection in one fell swoop.  Be they the cards cataloged, bulk commons/uncommons/lands/rares/mythics, foils, promo material, etc.

I'm selling 2 foil Metalworkers SP/NM - see pictures for details.  $150 per foil Metalworker.  Free shipping (and tracking within US).

I would grade it as SP from that picture. The overall physical condition of the card itself would be no worse than that.  I do not think that in that condition with the marks it would drastically affect value by more than a couple dollars. However thats my opinion based on personal preference.

In my opinion anything with sharpie marks is damaged.  I also want to add in shuffle play even without the lines that correspond to being shuffled down the middle. A card will be in played condition for me if I can feel such weakness and erosion (being flimsy) in the center of the card.  I recently returned a SP Windswept Heath I bought on ebay because the card had erosion in the top center due to shuffle play despite the card its physical appearance being SP.  The erosion put it at best MP.

On the same token I never acquire altered cards, they too are damaged to me (being a collector).  I wouldn't pay the same price for a work of Picasso if someone else painted over the original work.  Autographed cards are much the same though they I price at about what the regular card is priced at.  Autographs are just so easily attainable nowadays.  As I can't access Googledrive I can't give my opinion on the cards' condition.

I didn't see anything you two.

For trades with the foil kiora or elspeth I need either a metalworker or crucible back in return.

I'm trading (all mint) my:
Foil Elspeth, Sun's Champion
Foil Kiora, the Crashing Wave
Foil Godsend

Looking for:

Crucible of the Worlds
Metalworker
Demonic Tutor
other cards on my wishlist

It helps nobody when people price their cards much to high or much to low. To high and it doesn't sell, seller gets nothing, deckbox gets nothing, buyers go to other sources to find cards priced more in line with the general market. To low and seller gets taken, deckbox gets less than it probably should, encourages arbitage.

I disagree with your position.  Pricing cards too high or low can be for alternative reasons, perhaps reasons you have yet to think of.  There are many reasons for doing either, some more subtle than others.

I'm looking to trade away all the foils I have listed like Mox Opal, Ensnaring Bridge, Noble Hierarch, Rofellos, etc.

I have secluded glen's, blackcleave cliffs, tarnished citadels, oboro, meddling mage, chromatic lantern, etc for trade and am looking to trade into shocks.  Some extra value will be given in all my trades for shocks.  I'm looking specifically for the ones in my wishlist but will trade for any shocks (new/old).

On a side note, i'm walking in a March for Babies (i.e. March of Dimes) fundraiser on May 18.  Any donations are greatly appreciated, from .01 or more.  If you do donate and would like start a trade letting me know you donated (amount doesn't need to be disclosed).  I will thank you personally!  Some of you i've known for well over a year and don't have your e-mail, odd how the internet alters the definition of friends.  Others I don't know... yet.  Anybody is welcome to donate.  There is a link in the doo-bla-de-doop below.  (always wanted to say that).  :This post will not be bumped by me:

Don't forget i'm also available to trade with, and will be importing double the cards in my tradelist over the next two days (Wed/Thurs), while Deckbox carries on with their transition.
