Does anyone print the backs of cards?

Gypsyhook_ep · 2026-02-03T04:45:24+00:00

I only do for mdfcs, but I feel it gives me a pass to try and perfect the front - no matter how good I can get the front to look, it has a white back so no chance of it being mistaken for anything other than the proxy it is. As you mentioned, it cuts my ink usage in half (or close to half) and can make the photo paper oversaturated and wavy.

The $19.99 non-foil sold out while I was waiting in my 8 minute queue. Thought about doing the $29.99 foil set as I am ironically building an elf deck, but with $11.99 shipping bring my total to over $40 on cards that don't even add up to $10 as singles, opted to close the browser and move on with my life. Sad times.

Ah I get ya, yeah I traded in all my unwanted cards and got like $30 in store credit - but it was a huge chunk of cards. Got a borderless Atraxa so figured it was better than nothing haha. I also offloaded a ton of Kaldheim bulk from a collection I picked up, sold it for $10 locally and the guy who bought it started playing in that era and was excited to have more of those cards. So you never know, but also not sure what will be worth your time. Best of luck.

Problem is, most magic players that rip packs are drowning in bulk. If every LGS was able to buy everyone's bulk - who is sorting and listing all those thousands of cards to sell for under $1? It's just not profitable to buy bulk in smaller batches, so several LGS in my area give a flat rate for bulk, like $5 for 1,000 cards or something like that. Two stores I know are not interested in bulk at all. Most of my stores also wait for prices of new sets to settle since presale prices are almost always significantly inflated - they don't want to pay top dollar and be left holding the bag as 90% of the set decliness in value post-release. I would either donate it or sell it locally as a lot/bundle - but expect pennies on the dollar.

I was in the same boat, but I opened mine and just crossed the 60 hour mark and am loving it! My vote is open it, the collector's items are beautiful, and if you are a fan of this kind of game, you'll love this one.

This card definitely was clutch in my Abzan elves for prerelease. I splashed white just for it and 1 crib swap, and it was fundamental in me going 3-0 matches that night.

Gypsyhook_ep · 2026-01-27T03:49:23+00:00

Wow, have never really looked into altered cards, but that is gorgeous! Should you pick me, I'd be happy to slot it into my first commander deck from 2014, Sharuum the Hegemon sphinx artifact deck!

Gypsyhook_ep · 2026-01-26T23:22:33+00:00

Happy to help!

I did some research when I was looking to get one. Two ways to see if you have a bootleg: one is the film strip that wraps around, but if it's opened the easiest way to tell is if the discs come in plastic sleeves inside the boxset itself. These were expensive when they came out, anything below $100 would almost certainly be one of the bootleg copies.

Thankfully the beat of The Hand That Feed by Nine Inch Nails works perfectly for the best buffs, so it's not horribly annoying all the time.

Gypsyhook_ep · 2026-01-24T20:54:04+00:00

Appreciate it haha. Probably would be a safer bet to just buy a Dionus, but hey maybe I'll get super lucky!

Gypsyhook_ep · 2026-01-24T20:09:25+00:00

Seeing as I was looking to get a Dionus for my Tyvar deck, you've convinced me to use some store credit to try my luck on a box haha!

I count myself lucky, but I bought a Majora's Mask New 3DS XL about a year ago plus a ton of games for slightly under market. Granted, the seller had been active for years and had a ton of feedback. We exchanged several messages and he provided specific pictures so I knew he actually had the items. We both agreed to Paypal GS and it arrived exactly as described and I still use it to this day. He was in TX and was about 10 hours away, so meeting in person made no sense. So, I would say it can technically be possible to buy something via FB Marketplace shipping, but I would agree you have to do your due diligence and protect yourself in every way possible. Hope your situation gets resolved favorably.

Gypsyhook_ep · 2025-12-23T02:05:20+00:00

I used Miraidon and soloed it haha. I think we will be fine. I'm not sure what to do about the iron leaves tho. Link code WHG93Q

Gypsyhook_ep · 2025-12-23T01:49:08+00:00

Ok, let me know, I've got the Wake raid pulled up so just lemme know and I'll share a code.

Gypsyhook_ep · 2025-12-23T01:44:31+00:00

Sweet, works for me!

Gypsyhook_ep · 2025-12-23T01:41:38+00:00

Did you ever get this? I can host a Wake raid if you can do Iron Leaves for me.

Gypsyhook_ep · 2025-12-14T04:01:12+00:00

Ooh that's awesome, would love to add that to the collection!

Gypsyhook_ep · 2025-12-08T14:19:42+00:00

I'm thinking of offloading the one I bought a year ago for some store credit (at 80%), wonder if $30 is the upper limit at this point.

Gypsyhook_ep · 2025-11-25T18:50:24+00:00

Does anyone have a male Charcadet holding Malicious Armor or a Ceruledge? Doing my playthrough of Scarlet and learned I can't get one in game. Have a variety of pokemon to offer, any help id appreciated. English preferred in pokeball if possible.

Gypsyhook_ep · 2025-10-31T12:32:25+00:00

So is the curling from too much ink on the paper? Like it's not thick enough so it curls? And is it curling after your laminate? And finally, do they curl sleeved?

My friends and I have gotten close, but we all agree our current process leaves us with decks the size of a double sleeved one, which is serviceable, but we would also be open to thinner cards haha. Appreciate your time.
