I didn’t feel like going through the Magic Bulk today. So, I restocked Opus XIX – From Nightmares on TCG Player and eBay. I just had to look at something different today. I’m surprised how much some of these cards went up. That’s what we like to call Supply and Demand, and there sure was demand for them, cause some of those singles are already out the door.

But, I finished with that fairly quick, so I started sorting MTG Bulk. I just can’t get away from them sometimes, and other times, I can’t get any. It’s always like that, you either have too much or too little. I prefer too much, that way it’ll keep me busy for days to come.

Also listed some MTG Bulk lots on eBay. Might get some on here as well.

I tried organizing the office again, that will always be a work in progress.

Stay tuned for information regarding Journey of Discovery Midnight Pre-Release!

Start of the week, so let’s get our Monday work done. That includes our Weekend in Review, and the Card of the Day, for Instagram and Facebook.

After that, we got down to do our MTG Bulk. went through 2015 and 2016 today, lots of cards listed on TCG Player, and lots of cards for our bulk lots, that should be going up tomorrow or today, depending on when you read this.

I had to start organizing the office again. Especially since Journey of Discovery is right around the Korner. Speaking of which, that means Midnight Pre-Release is right around the Korner as well. And, you know what that means. You’ll have a chance to win a Prerelease Kit, simply by showing up and joining Prerelease.

Details will be going up shortly.

Gunslinger in the Korner

08/04

Midnight Prerelease took a beating on me once again. The older I get the longer it takes me to recover.

Talked to my distributor today, We’re getting our full order. No allocations this time, which is good. Gunslinger in the Abyss is already up for Pre-Order, Hopefully by the time you read this they’ll be sold out. And, hopefully we’ll be able to get a restock.

We’ll be getting the Full Arts up sometime this week.

08/05

Back to the 30 day plan. Checked the contact page, and everything looks good. You can use this page for any questions or comments. We read every singles one of them. If we didn’t why would we even have one?

Took care of our First look at Earth today. That is up. 4 more to go. We should have Lightning up tomorrow. Our Booster Boxes should be coming in tomorrow, along with a small restock of Legacy Collection.

08/06

Everything is here, and we are ready to Rock N’ Roll!

What better way to start than to open up a couple of boxes. And we did.

But first we needed to go to Home Depot, and pick up some paint for the kids’ room. Then we need to find something for dinner. Then we have to take care of orders. And I think that was all of it.

Time to get to recording, cause well we like it, and apparently so do all of you, so thank you. It’s always great reading the comments and we reply to every one of them.

And, what a video it was. We pulled the Chase! Full Art! Golden Signature! One in every 2,160 packs! Bartz!

We’re going to have some fun, so stay tuned.

08/07

It’s the day before Gunslinger in the Abyss officially releases, and we have a ton of work to do.

Spent the day sorting and listing. And, we’ve got our orders on top of that.

Plus took a couple of hours in between all the work, to start painting the kids’ room. I didn’t make it to bed until 2AM, and I have to be up early as always.

You’ll ask is it worth it? Yeah, I love every second of it.

Oh, and our thoughts on Lightning are up now. We got 3 left. that’s 3 more days.

08/08

It’s that time!

Release date. We got all our listings up, and we’re going to put the Full Arts up on the site today.

These Legends are selling like hot cakes! And, that’s what we all want. Right?

Finished up with Water today, and that is online as you read this. You might have already read it, and if you didn’t well it’s there for you to check out.

08/09

Haven’t gone to the Flea Market in a while. So, I decided to head over there today. And, today is one of those days that I should have missed. I found nothing. No Video Games, No Cards, No Shoes, No Toys.

That’s all right, there’s always next time.

We’re almost out of stock with Gunslinger in the Abyss. Kits are flying, Boosters are rolling. And we should be looking into getting a restock soon enough.

I was so out of it when I got home, I just sat at my desk and stared at my screen, till I decided it’s time for bed. I’ll take care of the orders tomorrow.

08/10
Had to take care of yesterdays orders in the morning. Luckily it’s Sunday, and I won’t be able to ship anything out until Monday.

Game Knights Chicago was holding their Local Qualifiers today. I decided to stop by and say hi to everyone. And, I’m getting that itch to play again. So, I’m going to try and make it out to the locals this week. Also picked up some Playmats from them. I didn’t get a chance to get some of these in stock. So, I picked some up for myself. Vivi and Lightning!

Finished up some more orders and called it a night.

Kardboard Chronicles II

07/28

It was a long day today.

We have good news though. We got our numbers for Gunslinger in the Abyss and it looks like we’re getting our full order. That means we’ll have plenty that will go up on the website.

We’re trying to have everything ready before the release next week. That includes our reviews on all the cards and all the cards listed and ready to go on TCG Player and eBay, along with the Full Arts on KardboardKorner.com.

Took the family out for ice cream, and took care of the orders.

Opus IV Dadaluma is unbanned. And then all my copies on TCG Player and eBay sold in a matter of minutes.

07/29

I had forgotten about the 30 day plan for the website. Well now it’s time to get back to it.

Check that the contact link in the footer is visible and clickable. I never had a contact link in the footer. So, I got one ready and it is now there. You can now send us an email straight from the link on the bottom. Checked it on Mobile as well and it’s working great. So, go ahead and send us some love.

Had to look for a Japanese Pokemon card I misplaced. Luckily I found it pretty fast.

Took care of the orders, and I passed out early.

07/30

Flea Market Swap. First thing in the morning. And there was nothing there for me. I did find an Xbox One but, I don’t really mess with them. I still have a bunch of Xboxs and games sitting at the office. It’s one of those items that aren’t high priority for me.

Headed to the bank, got my check for the Prerelease Kits that are coming in today. And, that means, I’ll be back on YouTube. Tonight. The video will be up by the time you read this, and I’ll probably have another one up as well.

Tested out that Metal Detector I got a couple weeks back, and it seems to be in good condition. Now, just need to find time to actually go and look for things.

07/31

Woke up to a flat tire. That’s never fun. Swapped out the spare and now I got to do some extra running around later today. Of course this happens when I’m already stretched thin with everything that’s going on.

That’s life though.

I just saw that one of my shorts on YouTube has gotten 1,500 views so far! That’s exciting, they usually top out at 500. I’m guessing everyone is getting excited about Gunslinger in the Abyss.

Got a couple of decks ready for Midnight PreRelease, hopefully they’ll be fun to play. The Bomb Squad, and OctoPirates. I’ll let you know how they turn out.

08/01

It’s August.

I thought my kids teams were going to be released today, but that got delayed to August 5th. Which is good, cause if they were released today, they would have had their first practice tomorrow and I would have been spent from Prerelease tonight.

Spent the day, doing the Gunslinger in the Abyss opinions. We’ve got 3 up already, 5 more to go.

Midnight Prerelease is tonight. We’re excited and ready.

Submitted 2 decks to Shantottocast’s Fix-It-Friday. (Give them some love, great people, and they help out the community tons!) Just to see what they had to say and how to improve them.

08/02

It was Midnight and Prerelease was ready to go. It was a small crowd, but fun none the less. Our winner walked out with an extra prerelease kit.

I was exhausted. The day went by slowly, and it takes me longer to recover from any late night activity.

My plan is to just get through the day, and go to sleep.

Again.

08/03

Woke up feeling a little better. And headed out to the Flea Market.

Actually found some first generation BeyBlades. I haven’t gotten a chance to look at them yet, but you know if they have metal on them, they are from earlier generations.

Took care of orders, while I watched SummerSlam.

All that’s left is to take care of everything before Gunslinger in the Abyss makes it’s way into my hands. We’ll have a very busy week.
