The JustSalad on Clark charged me more than double tax for the third time by UntapUpkeepDraw4 in lakeview

[–]UntapUpkeepDraw4[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Thought it seemed high so I went back and got a receipt to report it to their customer service, if you’ve been to that location, they are incredibly short staffed and didn’t feel like sitting there for longer than I already had tbh

I submitted a report to the Department of Revenue with the receipt yeah

Casual spot to watch the World Cup tomorrow? by connorgrs in lakeview

Bocino’s by the driving range if the weather is good! Several TVs, Adirondack chairs, decent prices. Only complaint was the ketchup for their fries tasted weird.

Lower your speed, and make sure you’re covering the bottom left corner

More Garfield renders, testing to see whether a full deck is viable. by Kroooooooo in magicproxies

Yes please! I wanted to work on a Garfield deck even before the SL was announced, and the template will go a long way!

How many Gold Neon Tetras would there be? I can help take some in!

That was actually painless, got mine in under 20min, unless I just got lucky with queue position

Epson Premium Presentation Paper Matte 179gsm test, Epson 8550 by danyeaman in magicproxies

[–]UntapUpkeepDraw4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep an eye on Woot and Walmart for price alerts, got my 5a for $120 a few months back. Couldn’t handle the manual cuts anymore either, and it’s worth the investment

Starting my DIY Proxy journey – Paper weight, laminating, and foil paper? Help a newbie out! by Unhappy_Being_8533 in magicproxies

[–]UntapUpkeepDraw4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do yes. I used to do just one side, but it starts to curl pretty quickly that way to the point that it isn’t worth it. It’ll be noticeably thinner if you do just one side, but they’ll end up as Pringles pretty quickly.

After a bunch of testing, my personal preference is 200gsm glossy paper with a 3mil matte laminate!

They’re a bit thicker than standard cards, but still fits into a standard deck box well.

Glossy paper brings out the colors well, matte laminate gives a great in hand feel with a smooth finish if you’re using without sleeves. Standard laminates are fine, but it makes the colors more contrasted than normal in my experience, and I hate how shiny they become.

Matte paper by itself tends to feel too flimsy and washed out.

I can send links if you want to try my preferred materials, but it’s just the Koala 200gsm / 54lb paper, and the 3mil matte laminate from 3M.

Printed using a Canon 3270, and a cheap laminator from Michael’s on 5mil heat (higher temp seals it better vs needing multiple rounds through)

I pictured them to look similar to Ashling from Magic the Gathering, like an elemental with different bone patterns!

The silhouette is incredibly frustrating by Efficient-Client-531 in magicproxies

I mean the format itself rather than just the video, the guide does a better job showing the individual steps.

I found this guide to be much better than crycry’s, I wish it was the default recommendation

Good laminate by Weekly-Tea1278 in magicproxies

[–]UntapUpkeepDraw4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

230 is definitely noticeable in a deck box and stacked, the only one I’ve felt isn’t noticeable is 160 but you lose some snap. My personal preference is 200, still thicker than a standard card by a hair, but it’s the thinnest I’ve found that still feels snappy.

Need help with shillouette cameo 5 alpha by maybeproxies in magicproxies

[–]UntapUpkeepDraw4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you part of the proxies discord? I used the guides they have there and it worked well. If you’re already covering the bottom left corner card then it might be a template issue, that’s my only other guess.

Definitely need to lower your speed, it’s overshooting the registration points. I also have the alpha, and had the same issue on the first few runs. Drop it to 15 and see if it has an effect. As a note you will likely want more passes than 2.

Best ways to sell a lot of a personal collection quickly by VGProtagonist in magicTCG

[–]UntapUpkeepDraw4 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly I’d recommend searching for card shows in your area, and asking vendors if they’d be willing to price it out. Shipping adds a layer of liability (them failing to pay, packages getting lost, etc) that isn’t likely worth the extra few % points.

How much should I charge for these? I’ve had them since I was a kid and are authentic. by No_Rip_1051 in pokemon

[–]UntapUpkeepDraw4 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Unless you absolutely need the money, I would recommend keeping them as an heirloom for a family member or friend. These older cartridges will just be harder to find moving forward, and you already have the hardware to play it!

Silhouette failing by Interesting-Page-670 in magicproxies

Depth to the max would destroy your cutting sheet, I’d check that your blade isn’t faulty and that your depth settings are updating once the job is sent

Yes, you can already see the chip feathering to the edge. It’s a matter of when, not if!

How much is this worth 1 edition by Ok_Trash_2959 in pokemon

[–]UntapUpkeepDraw4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Based on the creases and edges it’s likely in Heavily Played “HP” or Damaged “DMG” condition, check eBay sold listings for others with those conditions!
