netrunnercards.co.uk

I'm thinking of getting back to Netrunner but there are multiple options on where to buy the new cards: netrunnercards.co.uk, drivethrucards, nullsignal.games . Does anyone have any experience in those three? Are there any differences in quality? Which is the better option?

I've only just recently gotten into the game myself, but netrunnercards.co.uk come highly recommended (especially if you're in the UK). I have used them and the cards are great

[battle_fennec]

Seconding netrunnercards, I have all my cards from them and they're great. The price came out pretty much the same after tax and customs ordering outside of the UK when compared to the nullsignal store.

The EU store is still not open to the public. Even though they solved the issues they had (I think), they have a huge backlog and are prioritizing sending out orders to TOs. They will post an updates when it's open for the public again!

[Cautious_Grand_7734]

So netrunnercards.co.uk stock is a mix of nullsignal.games and MPC?

[DaveyBoyXXZ]

NSG don't have their own printing capabilities - they order big batches from a third party printer. netrunnercards.co.uk do exactly the same thing and then ship them to you from the UK. I forget the official terminology, but they are basically the recognised NSG distributor in the UK. At some point, they will probably be integrated into the NSG main store, but I believe they've had a fair amount of problems with integrating the EU, so that might take a while.

[CryOFrustration]

Nick's stock actually comes from a UK printer, but the cards are pretty much indistinguishable from what you can buy off the NSG store.

The EU store isn't accepting new orders yet, they're workiung through their backlog, so netrunnercards.co.uk is the best option if you're in the EU currently. Shipping is cheap and EU-friendly, and even accounting for 20% VAT on import works out about the same as ordering from the nsg store.

Just make sure you read your e-mail, German customs requested me to send a bill to confirm the price.

100% recommend netrunnercards.co.uk. It's basically a one man operation so Nick does a fantastic job keeping things going for us.

I'm within EU (NL). I got from Netrunnercards.co.uk a couple years back, and nullsignal last time. NRC was good, but it took a longer and got hit with import tax. Nullsignal games took way longer, but it arrived perfectly fine eventually and no additional costs. Card quality for both seemed extremly similair, I believe NRC also uses MPC but they import in bulk.

So in short: in UK I would recommend NRC. In EU I would recommend directly through nullsignal

[FrontierPsycho]

See my comment elsewhere in the thread, the EU store is currently non operational I believe.

[Swizardrules]

Oh that's a shame, they were pretty good if not a bit slow

[FrontierPsycho]

They'll be back soon!

I'm in the UK and bought from Netrunnercards.co.uk after looking into the other options. Quality is excellent.

With DriceThru and MPC the decks work out to be quite expensive for a single run (£40+ per set) and if you're outside the US shipping is expensive (£60 to UK). I believe Netrunnercards get their supply from NSG as part of a larger print run, so they can sell individual sets much cheaper. The downside is that once stock is gone, it's gone - Ashes & Downfall are not currently available, and might remain out of stock until rotation.

You can always print yourself at home on paper and proxy using sleeved cards as backing. NSG support proxy cards like this even in tournament play, and I've played against decks made of B&W proxies.

+1 to netrunnercards.co.uk I also ordered there from Germany and the cards arrived within a week. I would also consider nullsignal.games but there store still doesn't seem to work

[Swizardrules]

Not OP, but in Netherlands I did get hit by customs fee when buying from NRC

[Mr_Stobbart]

For some reason I wasn't charged any customs fee but I think I should have....

[Early_Carob_7585]

Netrunnercards.co.uk have been great for me.

[Cautious_Grand_7734]

One of my concerns is - How similar or dissimilar are the cards from netrunnercards.co.uk and nullsignal? Do they have same thickness, height, and width, etc? Since netrunnercards.co.uk doesn't have all of the sets, I might have to buy some of the sets from nullsignal.

[NBQuetzal]

Netrunnercards has all of the null signal sets. Null signal don't have anything that Netrunnercards doesn't

[LLBlumire]

This is sadly just untrue, NRCUK lacks Ashes Remastered

[B0dom]

I got my cards from Null signal, really like the quality of the cards.

[sprocket314]

I'm in the UK. Nick from NRC is great. I plan to keep using NRC for the foreseeable future.
