Augest 2, 2009. Added Over 50 New Magic Card items!
July 22, 2009. Added 50 New Magic Card items!
June 23, 2009. Added 42 Magic Card Items! Mostly about 1.00.
May 21, 2009. A very respectable and overdue update of 64 Magic Card auctions!
May 8, 2009. Added an update of about 25 Magic Card Auctions.
April 3, 2009. Added another update. About 40 new items. Busy week!
April 3, 2009. Another respectable update of 50 new listings. Mostly "about a dollar" items.
March 5, 2009. Respectable update of 50 or so new listings.
Also deleted many update log entries on this page so you will noticed that the date right under this one is quite old.
June 5, 2008. A very respectable update of 50 cards! Again mostly power cards, yummy yummy; fruit sal-; what I meant to say was, enjoy!
March 24, 2008. Because of the recent policy changes, store items under 1.00 can no longer be listed. Starting on March 25, there will be a short window of opportunity to list items at 99 cents again. A sort of modified Ebay day.
Any items that I could not relist within the last few months will be reduced in price. This will give a last chance to bid on the cards. Most of the cards are x4 playsets and all of them will be between 0.09 to 0.99.
It is my intention to also list some new card sets as well. Ending on a different day will be more playsets that are under a dollar. Mostly staple commons, tournament commons, and older commons that are useful or interesting. As far as I know, this is the last chance I will have to offer these cards. In the future, I may offer them again in bulk lots but unless this modified ebay day happens again, I cannot relist these items and expect to make any money at all.
March 6, 2008. Computer problems and the Ebay policy changes are causing a bit of a hurdle for me and my style of listings. I expect to list 20-30 cards by the end of the month, till then; baby update today of about 10 cards.
February 13, 2008. Another Ebay day. Quite the inspiration to get me out of hibernation and working on another Magic Card update. My inventory is at all time lows so I will prolly need to break a deck or two or scrouge through some of my super secret stash to see what I am willing to get rid of. I still consider myself on a bit of a vacation but it looks like it will be business as usual for the next couple weeks. Am happy about working again, was getting fat and lazy anyway!
Thursday December 27, 2007. Ah yes, Ebay day. It happens about twice a year; and it moves around on the calender, but certainly a day of note. I do not know about other people, but Ebay day is a "holiday" that I drop any plans I had for the day and start listing like a madman.
Today, I listed about 100 Magic Card auctions; Pure Power Cards. I went all out this time. The super secret coffers were burst open, and anything and everything I owned (that I was not using and happen to be any good) was listed.
A Couple things:
a)Certain VIP clients ask me for favors. I am asked if I just happen to have this or that card in my super secret stash that I can sell to them for a deck they need. Because they are my very best clients; I break my normal rule of not entertaining card requests. This update has emptied me. Dear clients and super special clients; there is no more secret stash. I have no more to give er sell. =(
b) This is about as good as it gets. Last year, I had a slightly bigger Ebay day, but for the most part; it is all down hill from here! Weee! Tumble Tumble Roll Roll.
Sunday November 11, 2007. It has been a full day with much much more work then I thought. I have fulfilled my commitment and listed a super update of about 294 items. A little something for everyone. Puff puff, sleepytime for me now.
Sunday November 4, 2007, It is my plan and intention to put up an update sometime around the 11th. About a week from today. I do not plan on doing any more updates or new cards after that. This is because during December, the mailing system is stressed greatly and items that take 1 week to arrive can take 2 or 3 weeks.
October 28th 2007, I delayed my scheduled update for a few days at the request of a VIP client. But alas the time of the update is imprisoned and set in stone, please choose another icon.
Anyway, I put up about 60 or so new magic card items. Mostly restocking some sold out playsets. I plan on getting another set of cards up and ready to go within the next couple days or so.
July 30, 2007: Sunday, my only true day off. I spent most of it getting this update together. Last month, I found a box of commons and was able to put it to good use. I found a couple other boxes and there are days where I past the time watching movies I have already watched while I sort through the cards. In reflection, I have spent quite a lot of time restocking the x4 playsets lane. That's great, the response has been favorable, but this on this update, I wanted at least some non-playset items to fill out the other lanes.
1)Large update today of 165+ Magic Card items!
2)Lowered the price on some of the items that are already listed but have not moved.
3)Relisted items that did not sell. Lowered the price on those items.
June 30, 2007: Nice healthy update of 80 or so items, mostly "about a dollar" type cards.
June 14, 2007: I literally stumbled on an old box of high quality mostly well kept commons. I have spent bits and pieces of the last week listing and sorting the commons and I am still not done. However, I am leaving for the weekend and did not want to wait. The rest will have to wait; and it will probably be at least 2 weeks before I get around to that part. More likely, I will let the rest sit and concentrate on my "about a dollar" category. Cards will be mailed out Monday and Tuesday because of my absence. Oh, congratulations to me on reaching 2500 positive feedback. Much rejoicing. Yay.
May 31, 2007: It is 2:59 am Thursday Morning. I am running behind schedule and am working hard even as we speak to fulfill the commitment of adding items on Wednesday. I will upload my first early Magic Card sets to give you something to browse through, then continue onward from there!
Why buy from me? 1st, You save money, I am usually the lowest price. See for yourself! Do a search! Check this!
http://stores.ebay.com/
2nd You save more money, my shipping rates are reasonable, and I offer free combined shipping on all additional Dvd's and Magic cards. 3rd, You can bid with confidence because I am a Power Seller with over 2400 feedback, and a 10 year iron clad track record!
May 25, 2007: To say that I have been busy these last 24 hours would be a bit of an understatement. I listed, in the neighborhood of 500 or so auctions. A little more then half of those were Magic cards; mostly medium to high end power cards.
The funny (and a little scary) thing about the whole situation, is that I would have been even more busy if some odd and very new event did not happen. I am surprised and amused to say that I hit the auction listing cap. Basically, in a 7 day period, there is a limit on how many items you can list/sell. I think it is about 500. I have never hit that before, and today I did. And I still had about 200 cards to list too!
Furthermore, sometime around Tuesday or Wednesday, I plan on adding a about 30-50 more items. Probably x4 playsets, or about a dollar items. I invite you to take advantage of this, and me.
I mean, you already won something; you are already going to pay 2.00 shipping. So, since all other singles or playsets are free shipping after the first, you may as well add an item here or there. And if your shipping ends up being more then 2.00. (for U.S., 3.00 for international), I will cover the difference, thankyou very much and please come back again. I would welcome that event!
And unfortunately, it is my intention to go into hibernation in about a week and a half. What that means is that I plan on not listing any new items for 2 or 3 weeks. The main reason for this, is that I believe I will be plenty busy concentrating on getting all these items mailed. I need to take care of you, before I take care of my next, new, future clients. Goodluck, Happy Bidding, and I hope to see you again real soon.
Respectfully Here to Serve,

May 20, 2007: Hello, I made small update today of about 24 cards. Furthermore, I also poked around and lowered some prices of a few magic cards that were no longer the lowest on the Market.
May 11, 2007: Pretty busy day today. Added over 60 Magic card Items, mostly in the x4 Multiples Playset Lane. Enjoy!
May 6, 2007 Added another 34 Magic Card Items.
April 30, 2007: A very productive day today! Added over 60 new magic card items! Also relisted some unsold magic cards and lowered the prices of those relisted items.
February 28, 2007: I fulfilled my promise and fulfilled it early. About 75 new magic card items were added; this time in the x4 playsets lane. Added a couple disney items; a couple dvd items. Even put up items for my every other week Sunday dvd sale. I am content that I have done what I have committed to do. Happy bidding!
February 17, 2007: Real life called. I was promoted from my regular job and, quite frankly, haven't had any time to do much of anything besides work and sleep. I am adjusting, and am finding little pockets of time. I expect and promise to put up at least 20 new Magic Card items by March 4th and I will continue to add other items; prolly Disney or Dvd's as time permits. I have made and given my commitment. Thankyou for your tremendous support. I am over 2200 feedback now! Yayy!
January 18, 2006, I have been really busy and a little out of the loop. This day has inspired me to wake up sooner then I probably would have on my own. Lots of auctions to be put up. Mostly dvd's will be put up until about 11pm or so PST; after that, mostly Magic the GatheringPower Cards that are 3.00 or more! And happy birthday to me!
December 25th 2006, New auctions are up! Update of about 80 cards, and a few more dvd sets. Also added "Disney" category and "Wow/world of warcraft card game" category. Not very many items there just yet; but just you wait!
December 14th 2006, Happy Holidays everyone, I am on a bit of a soft vacation (from Magic The Gathering) until about the 25th in which case I will be working on an after Holiday sale/update. Positive energy and good will to all of you. And a hearty thankyou.
November 26, 2006. Excuse me! Excuse me! Do you have a moment? Hey, Listen. I am willing to sell you Magic Cards. In shopping here, with me, you will save 0.25, 0.50 or more on each and every card you purchase from now till the sale is over. If you want proof; check this:
http://search.stores.ebay.com/_Trading-Card-Games_W0QQfclZ3QQfromZR10QQfsooZ1QQfsopZ3QQsacatZ2536QQsbrsrtZlQQsifZ1QQsofpZ4
I use this link to price check each and every card I list. On top of that, you will save on shipping because I only charge a flat 2.00 U.S./ 3.00 International total. (singles only, not repacks or batches)
I do not charge any extra shipping, handling, package fees. I do not require you to pay for insurance. If the 2.00 or 3.00 does not cover shipping; I will pay the difference.
I am having a sale and have lowered the prices of about 80 percent of my inventory. Anything that has not already sold, and is not being watched by someone has been reduced by about 0.25. You will know that I have reduced the price because the last number in the price will have a 3. Example. 2.93, or 4.93 when the price was 3.25 or 5.24 respectively.
Cards will be sent in a toploader, and my feedback is above 99.5 percent. I have a solid track record.
In return for all this, I ask that you read my auction fully at least one time so that we understand each other; and that you pay quickly so I can mail you the cards before I go on vacation December 14.
The sale ends about Monday Night Midnight 11/27/2006. Actually, it is Tuesday at about 3:00 am Pacific standard time when auctions start ending but I will not be awake to watch the auctions close, or answer last minute questions. Goodluck.
November 21, 2006. Today is another Ebay listing fee special day! So, I am doing something I was not planning on doing. Running another sale.
For those of you who missed the sale, here is your chance to get another swing at the inventory that is left. There are still many MANY great cards. And to make a good sale even better, I have even lowered the price on MANY of the cards being relisted.
November 13, 2006. The response to this month's blow out sale has been good; really good. Today, I have just finished doing something a little more aggressive with the current sale.
Prices have been lowered on just about all items that end Wednesday that are not being watched currently, and have not been sold. Sneaky, I know, but it does not hurt anyone, and makes my prices even better; helping YOU save money! I do not plan on making any further adjustments. The holiday sale will be over in a little over 24 hours and I will probably not be adding new items for a good while. I will send any orders I receive, but I do not plan on listing more inventory. Happy Holidays everyone. Thankyou for the great response. I hope to continue to serve you, my client.
November 9, 2006: added 120 more new items! These last few days have seen almost 500 newly added items. Mostly cream of the crop tournament quality power cards!
October 31, 2006: Big relist today. Lowered all the prices of the relisted items by about 10 percent.
As usual 2.00 flat shipping for U.S., 3.00 flat shipping for international, that's it; and no more; no matter how many cards you buy; I do not know how much more clear I can make this; if the ebay system gives you the wrong amount; you are welcome to change it yourself or wait till I give you an invoice with the correct amount.
June 9th 2006, Added about 20 more cards AND....
DVD'S!
Mostly Anime, so some may be a little risque' for younger eyes. Nothing crazy mind you, but the average recommended age is usually at least 15+.
The same style of pricing that goes for just about everything I will sell as well. One of the lowest, if not THE lowest price with shipping charges included as a total.
June 1st 2006, Nice small normal update today. Added a few cards. Mostly lowered the prices on a lot of my power cards to stay competive with the market. The prices change faster then I can keep track of them, but for the time being, most of the cards I checked (Revised Dual Lands mostly) are back to being the lowest on ebay. I will not lie to you. I notice a bit of a price war going on. Prices being lowered; merchants fighting for your business. That is good and what should be because it keeps the magic market healthy and magic card prices sane.
March 28th, 2006. I decided to become a powerseller. I may lose that status tomorrow but for now, I will do what I can to live up to that name. That being said:
Listed about 100 new cards. Quite frankly, there are more money cards; more cream of the crop, power cards on the store shelves today then there have ever been. The cards I put up last time sold very fast and did not last long before. They will not last now.
This was such a big update that I half expected my computer to die, or have a power failure, or a flood or some other really awful bad event that would make me start all over. I was really really worried at the end because my computer started making funny sounds. I was so scared that I did not list about 20 or so cards. I will put those up another time. I put in about 7 hours of just listing cards today; time to rest a bit. Very probably, that resting time will be spent putting together and mailing packages for you!
Being a powerseller does not really give any benefits, but it does inspire me to push myself to meet that ebay volume requirement. Enjoy everyone! This is my new high peak, this will be our finest hour and the rest is all down hill from there! Weee!
March 21th, 2006. The response to my big update was very very good. So much so that ebay invited me to become a powerseller. I am still deciding on accepting or not but I simply do not have the inventory to sustain and continue the dollar amount per month needed. Still, it shows that I have done the things a powerseller would do; I am trustworthy, concerned about customer service, and make a strong effort to keep my store stocked for a high volume of sales.
A word about the current stock that's up and my general concept of price beating style. These cards are the same items I have had up for a couple months. Auction items do not sit in a trade binder, they have their own home. So when I put items up, they just sit there. I do not like my cards gathering dust! So that means savings to you!
And if all it takes, is for my price on a card to be lower; a penny, a quarter, a dollar. If that is what it takes for you to be convinced of purchasing from me first; I gladly do that. Sometimes I get caught up in having the lowest price and you will find even better deals then I normally have. Those do not last to long and are quickly snapped up. So I invite you to come back often, and even become an ebay store subscriber where you are notified of when I make my surge. I have said this many times. I do not do this for a living so I do not have the raw inventory as some other stores. But I am a motivated seller! I want to sell you cards! Happy Hunting!
I sometimes get bad messages for blatantly undercutting magic prices. However, I truly believe my presence is healthy for the market.
When people trade with each other at a local card shop, it used to be that if someone had a card you really wanted; you would just have to suck it up and pay the price. You would let yourself be ripped off because you needed that card, and there was no other place to get it.
On the internet, there are so many card sellers; prices are driven down through competition.
For those who do not like me, keep in mind that I do not do this for a living. My stock is extremely limited and when I am sold out, I am done. I do not have people bringing me cards to sell, or open up cases every expansion. So just put up with me or buy me out, and I will either run out of cards or not have that particular card that I am competing price-wise with you anymore.
Furthermore, I still casually play on occasion and give as good as I take. I know what a buyer looks for because I buy almost as much as I sell. I buy for my decks, for my trade binder, for my warmongering, hoarding ways. So everything just sort of cycles around anyways.
