As for picture sleeves, what are some decent sources? My LGS only has anime girls (of the clothed variety), Game of Thrones, and Boris Vallejo pin-ups. Is there a way to get custom sleeves?

FFG has a few, most notably the GoT sleeves. Legion Supplies sells some generic skulls and things or internet memes. Somebody (Ultra Pro maybe?) sells various bits of MTG art sleeves.

I play (Netrunner, anyway) with anime sleeves from Legend of Galactic Heroes (like my av) but finding them amongst a sea of thousands of scantily clad anime girls took an unreasonable amount of time on amazon and international shipping was horrible, so I do not recommend it unless you are really determined to find sleeves nobody else is also playing.

I found that this is one site where you can design your own sleeves (http://www.yourcardsleeves.com/), although there's videos that proved he's able to make some, production still seems to be in the beginning phase, based on the order page.

On the topic of terrible sleeve discussion, am I a bad person for running these in the past? I have no shame for buying them or using them :colbert:

I don't remember either of those things happening. I mean, I know Phage ( a zombie resurrected from the corpse of Kamahl's sister, Jeska whose mere touch causes things to rot away) and the Cabal Patriach/ The First (a man whose power causes beings to instantly die at his touch) had sex giving birth to the the black (as in mana) god-baby Kuberr.

I know Akroma was created from Ixidor missing his wife and wet-dreaming her into existence.

I also know that Karona was created when Kamahl killed Phage, Akroma and Zagorka at the same time with the Mirari Blade.

I however don't remember any incest or rape, just some necrophilia and magical wet-dreams.

Get some sleeves with the normal card back on them, it'll tilt the gently caress out of your opponents.

You can already get those, I have like 100 or so of them. I've never seen anyone tilt over those, though I have gotten a few "That's Neat" from people.

I just got an e-mail from Strike Zone saying that, of the $101 worth of cards I sent to them, they'd be crediting me with $31. I don't hold out much hope for them actually paying me. Is this just their business model?

I sent them a buylist order of about $68 two weeks ago and got PayPal for the full amount the same day that they received the cards. Did they give a reason for the difference in amount?

Nope, I painstakingly went through their list and they wouldn't let me submit more than they were taking anyways. Not to mention that they've labelled the order as complete even though I haven't been paid yet, so at this point I'm pretty sure they're screwing me.

Granted I have only dealt with them the one time, but that went really smooth. I would call them and ask what's going on. Couldn't hurt.

So it looks like they decided not to accept your Trostanis, Counterflux and Mother of Runes. I'm pretty sure they're going to mail them back to you. Just call them.
