I recently bought a stock of 35 simplified Chinese P3K packs fairly cheap.  What does one do with these: crack them off course.  I got all the best cards: Imperail Recruitor, Imperial Seal, Zodiac Dragon, Ravages of War, Capture, Wolf Pack, Etc., everything except Rolling Earthquake.

Problem is, now I want a complete set.

I need only some dumb rares and a few uncommons, but I can't find them anywhere.

My question for you guys is this: Have any of you ever stumbled upon a vendor who deals with this or do you know where I might have more luck?  I have looked at all the popular vendors including SCG and all anyone ever has are English singles, but I need simplified Chinese.

Any assistance you might give would be appreciated.

I would be happy to pm you a list, but I think posting it here would make this too much like a Want list(akin to MOTL) and that is, as far as I know, against the rules.

Man, you just cracked them and didn't even draft with them?  Such a waste!

Good luck finding your random legends with strange names, at least you got most of the expensive cards.

Well, technically we "pack-warred" them next to a laptop to find out what they did.

Not yet, could you pm or aim it to me, or even just give it to me Saturday at Steve's if you come.

They are not actually that hard to find, just hard to get from retailers who specialize in English only cards (like SCG, CardHaus, etc.). I would suggest the following:
1) eBay search for chinese p3k
2) eBay search for chinese portal -planar -riftstone -possessed
3) MOTL trader Volcanon - goes back and forth between Canada and Japan, and has always seemed to be a good resource for P3K cards in every language

I've dealt with him a few times before, he's a good guy.
