Where to buy cards?

[JimMc]

Does anyone have good suggestions for websites or places to acquire singles from at low prices that have a big selection?  Thanks in advance.

http://www.cardshark.com and http://www.ebay.com work well for me.

I wrote an article for londes (bleh!) which covered some of the basics of eBaying: http://www.londes.com/articles/July/rep16.php

And by posting a link to Londes, I think it fair to warn you: I don't recommend buying from Londes.  They are very difficult to deal with (very non-responsive to e-mails) and aside from that, I never got the cards I ordered from them.

At least with eBay and Cardshark, you can read what previous buyers thought about the seller.

You can occasionally find excellent deals from on-line stores. Go here:

Also, you can buy cards from MOTL (www.magictraders.com), although you have to be prepared to take measures or at least use some common sense to prevent getting ripped off. MOTL can be a great place to acquire singles at or below ebay prices quickly.

There's also something to be said for Londes being the stupidest magic sight in existence. I believe I recall an article complaining about the lack of mass artifact removal in type 2 and then referenceing Rebuild as a card that could fix the format.  For the entirely uninformed Retract was printed in darksteel costing a full 2 mana less.

That doesn't remove your opponent's stuff, you douche.

EDIT:  Time travel this, Jacob!  Bwaaahahahaha

For the "entirely uninformed", Retract only returns your artifacts. It's not quite "mass aritfact removal".

Also, you misspelled "site".
