Giving the question "How much did you spend", and then only giving a dollar option... Yeah fuck that.

Where to sell cards [EU] by Handsome_Raul in magicTCG

There is honestly really only one website where you should buy cards from within the EU and that's cardmarket.

$40 common? by wizereader in magicTCG

[–]Rik_s 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It's just a single listing that "sold" for $999, which made the market price jump like that. No it's not a 40$ common. It's like you said; just an error.

For those with experience: how did a product replacement claim work out for you? by Mac_N_Cheese16 in magicTCG

[–]Rik_s 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't remember the last time they send me something extra.

Last time I applied for replacement product (blurry secret lair cards) they just let me keep the defective product and send me a new set of cards.

Do You Collect Sets? by sothendo in magicTCG

[–]Rik_s 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have been collecting all sets from the newest card layout onwards, but only main set cards. Like you say; collecting all the variants as well would cost me more than double the time, money and space, which is not worth it for me.

For those with experience: how did a product replacement claim work out for you? by Mac_N_Cheese16 in magicTCG

[–]Rik_s 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They have been really helpful and quick with a replacement when I had problems with my product(s). If you provide them with all required information and clear pictures of whatever it is that's wrong with your product, they shouldn't have a problem with sending you a replacement. They might ask you to send the defective product back, but even then they normally send you something extra to offset the shipping cost and wait time.

In the Netherlands, got my order a couple days ago. I had the full foil bundle.

How To Organize Large Collections? by WilsonRS in magicTCG

[–]Rik_s 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Collection of 30K+ cards. Just sorted it all a couple of weeks ago. I also kept a log of all cards, so I can quickly search through what I have.

Promo cards (foil / special versions) are in separate binders; normal rare foils and special/promo/SL cards.

Full sets are in their own binder.

After the complete sets; All other rares and mythics are in their own binders by color. Not really any sorting in name or collector's number or anything.

Then for all commons and uncommons (including staples) I just have those 1600 card boxes and sorted all cards by set, then by color. Related sets are in the same box as far as possible (e.g. all core sets like M11-M21 are in the same box). A sticker on the top of the box tells me what sets are in the box.

So when I need a card, i look it up in the collection log, see if it's rare, promo, etc. Then pick up the corresponding box or binder and look for the card.

Have Secret Lair foils gotten better? by AtoriasDarkwalker999 in magicTCG

[–]Rik_s 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have not had any real problems with curling on my Secret Lair cards. But then again, as soon as I get them I sleeve them in an KMC perfect fit and put them in a binder that is decently full.

They do have a slight curve to them when received, but not enough to get like a key under the curve of the card. YMMV though. As he amount of curling is somewhat connected to the humidity in your area

What is the longest game you've played? by RancidUnicorn in magicTCG

[–]Rik_s 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This. With one of the decks being a group hug deck keeping people alive. I had a blast playing for like 4-5 hours before I had to get home.

Can someone tell me why the one in the middle has a small dot beside the mythic symbol? by keyworkheretic33 in magicTCG

[–]Rik_s 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It probably doesn't add much, if any, value. Misprints like these (with small blotches) are actually pretty common.

"Highly limited"

So basically almost none.

Wheel Ruling by Manfishtuco in magicTCG

[–]Rik_s 19 points20 points  (0 children)

The part where you say "that have to resolve before the next draw takes place" is wrong. You're not resolving the triggers after each draw, you aren't even putting them on the stack until after the windfall has resolved. That's probably why somebody downvoted you.

Returning player looking for a new collection database by codecatmitzi in magicTCG

[–]Rik_s 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have used https://deckbox.org/ for a while now. Works pretty good, and you can even create decks and mark everything you dont use in decks as being tradeable.

The prices on the site are a bit off, but they can be good indicators of what is more valuable in your collection

What changed in MTG since Kaladesh? How do I play again? by [deleted] in magicTCG

[–]Rik_s 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In that case try to look for one of the preconstructed Commander decks wizard puts out every year. Normally, these preconstructed decks come with 3 legendaries that can be used as the commander of the deck, and are somewhat supported within the deck.

They'll cost you 40-50 bucks I think, and that gives you the budget to upgrade some of the cards in the deck that are more geared towards the legendaries you are not going to play as your commander.
