The Legend of Kardboard

04/28

Well the Toploaders came in, right as we were running out of our old stock. And, I was about to head on over to the local sports card shop to pick up a few. Sometimes time is on our side. Sometimes it’s not.

We also got a few new Full Arts that are now listed on the site, and some Tears of the Planet Singles that are on TCG Player.

04/29

Started the day off with restocking Opus XVI – Emissaries of Light.

Then I watched the Champion’s League game. Arsenal – PSG. I haven’t watched much soccer since 2013 and I wasn’t surprised that I didn’t know any players, but I still thought I’d know at least one person.

04/30

Wednesday, that means we’re heading to the Flea Market. Pretty much struck out today. The guy that told me to come back didn’t show up. All I ended up finding was a PS2 controller in ok condition. If it works, I can start testing PS2 games.

Turns out that something happened since the last time I turned it on. Didn’t want to start or nothing. Took it apart hoping that maybe something was off. Reached the Power Supply Board and I started smelling something burnt. Got to order one and hopefully it’ll be fine after that.

Decided that I should go through all of my old Consoles. I know that some just need cables, but others like all 3 Xboxs probably need a lot more work.

05/01

It’s raining again. Always on the days that I got Garage Sales to go to. That didn’t stop me though. I still took a drive around and actually found one. Nothing great but did grab a couple of CDs.

Bunch of Legends and Heroes added to TCG Player.

On the way home we found a rummage sale. I didn’t even know that it was going on. Of course I turned the car around and headed straight for it. And, of course as we’re walking in, we see someone walking out with a big Five Nights at Freddy’s Plush. This thing was huge. Not much else was there.

Ordered the Power Supply Board for the PS2. Fingers crossed it will work once I replace it.

05/02

We’re getting a small restock of Hidden Legends in today. They’re already up on the website, and they might be sold out by the time that you read this. There’s also some Final Fantasy VII Anniversary Art Museum Vol.1 and Vol.2.

Went sailing again. It’s almost like no one is having Garage Sales anymore, and the people that do, they want to charge eBay prices for everything.

05/03

Saturday means Flea Market and Garage Sales.

Got up really early today, thinking I’d beat the crowd. I did beat the crowd, and the vendors. I got there around 7:30 and everyone was still setting up. No time to waste, I started making my rounds, decided to walk around a few times looking for anything that would peak my interest. Didn’t find much the first time as everyone was still setting up.

Second time around, about the same.

Just found a Led Zeppelin cassette and a Wii U game-pad, which I needed. I started thinking that this Flea Market isn’t good on Saturdays. it was 2 hours and didn’t find much of anything. Started heading towards the exit, and I noticed a bunch of PS4 games that just made it on to a table. Crash Bandicoot 4, and CTR Nitro Fueled. ended up getting all of the games the gentleman had on the table.

Time to go. Nothing left to find here, other than Vendors selling they’re items at the prices that I would sell.

Off to the Garage Sales.

Drove around and found some. These are always hit or miss. Mostly miss. And sometimes you’re just a second too late. Drove up to one, and saw someone paying for a WWE folding chair from a show.

05/04

Decided to take a lazy day today.

Tested out all the games, made sure they worked, and got orders ready to be shipped out on Monday.

The “Real” Tears of the Planet and More

Shop for Singles and more at our TCG Player Store!

It’s April, and what do we have going on?

Tears of the Planet has come, but it’s like it never arrived. As you already know, our order was cut in half, and we’ve been trying to get some stock of it, but everything is sold out. Almost everywhere. Is it because it is a great set? Maybe, plenty of great cards in there. Is it because Aerith is on the box? That can be it too, Plus that Full Art Gold Signature Aerith looks amazing.

We’ve had other shops in our area asking us if we had any extras. So, I know I’m not the only one without any stock. Never the less, we’ll keep on looking to see if any more will become available.

April 6th, we will be at the Toy Con Toy Show in Bridgeview, it is a two day event different vendors for each day. As we said Sunday morning April 6th. We’ll have a table there and we’ll have all kinds of cards and collectables. I’d say about 40% of what we have will be Final Fantasy. But, there will be more to it than that. Video Games, Action Figures, Toys you name it. There’s a good chance you’ll find what you’re looking for.

Did you check out our updated Final Fantasy Singles? We have close to 200 cards available for you. All these cards are from pack to sleeve, and straight to a binder.

And, as we mentioned before, we need your bulk! If it’s just in the closet gathering dust, we’ll give you $10 per 1000 cards. If you have something that’s worth more than bulk, send us a message, and we’ll go from there.

Tears of the Planet Prerelease Kits and Delays

As of this moment, we will have to postpone our Tears of the Planet midnight Pre-Release, due to logistics.

Our distributor hasn’t received the kits as of today, meaning that if they don’t make it tomorrow, we will not be getting them on time for the event.

We’ll still try and do whatever we can to get Midnight Pre-Release for this Friday. As soon as we get any info, on if we will be able to get the kits we will hold it on the 21st as planned. Check back on Friday morning and we’ll know for sure if we’re holding Midnight Pre-Release this week or next.

In the meantime, have you checked out our new inventory of Singles?

End of February, Update

With Hidden Legends right around that Korner, we are Sold Out at the moment. We’re currently trying to get some more, and we’ll let you know once we find out.

Tears of the Planet isn’t too far off either. March 28th, we’ll have a link for Pre-Orders up for that shortly as well. And, that also means that Midnight Pre-Release is almost here as well. We’re looking at March 21st. Same time, Same place, Same Prizes.

We’re adding more Singles to the website. Mostly Full Arts and Promos for now. We’d rather have those here than TCG Player, or eBay.

Now we have a question for you. Have you been enjoying the Final Fantasy IV series we have been doing? Let us know in the comments.

And, we still want your bulk. If you have some that’s just taking up space, send us an email, and we’ll take it off of your hands. kardboardkorner@gmail.com
