Where do you guys go to shop online? Where's the cheapest place that you've found TCG or EBay? Maybe other sites?
TCG player. eBay always gets to on shipping. Always.
That's what I've found too thanks bud!
No problem! Glad to help someone save some money.
Beware of TCGs prices and quality.
I ordered 3 hallowed fountains that never came (lowest price)
I waited from 12/3 till 12/24 to get the cards, guy never sent them, hasn't responded. tcG did refund me my $20 but the inconvenience of waiting a month for cards that never came for a deck I wanted to complete is really awful.
eBay has continued to be the lowest if I pay attention to bids - just got a foil sphinx rev shipped for $27

That's not true. Everything I order from eBay is free shipping. You just have to pay attention and not buy from sellers who charge for shipping.
ChannelFireball is my go-to.
Reminds me, I need to finish cutting a couple commander decks down to 100 and go shopping for a few missing pieces!
I have only ever bought singles on ebay, so i couldn't tell you how TCGPlayer does things. I do know though that I have never had any problems with shipling and I can always find cards at or a buck or two lower than the average price "buy it now" (with free shipping).
eBay and Cool Stuff Inc
I use eBay for staples and rare EDH foils. If I really try I can get what I want we'll below tcg mid. I love trollandtoad for the cheap commons and rares that I need for commander, sometimes they have sweet foils that I can't find or are pricey on eBay. Orders Of 10$ qualify for.99 cent shipping.
I have bought a few things through tcg player but I really don't know how to trust the vendors. I bought a FTV sol ring maybe 6 months ago and I remember it taking several weeks to arrive, the seller says it got returned to sender but I kinda doubt that.
Card kingdom. I'm loyal there because they have a great way of selling cards to them, and I repeatedly get hundreds of dollars of store credit. Currently $233.

eBay and Cool Stuff Inc
someone else uses cool stuff inc? I can't believe it! I only use them when I need to sell a card now, and they have what I want to buy. It's pretty much like a normal trade when you use in store credit.
I've been buying from them for years, I got the 2nd highest tier of purchasing. I save like 19% or something off singles. They have good service and it's easy to navigate.
Amazon because of all the gift cards I have :P
Anyone know if Ertai's store has a website??

Also, this. I buy all of my stuff from here.
I always browse eBay as well, the shipping only gets you if you're not paying attention o.O
Got a foil {Ral Zarek} for 20 with free shipping (he's my favorite planeswalker)
3 promo {magma jet}s for 10 bucks, and a ton of other stuff 😳
everything always comes in near mint as well, and if they're not then I complain 😋 (as long as they're listed as nm in the description)

Woah, share that account! ☺️
I use eBay, channelfireball, troll and toad, and cool stuff inc. I've found that they're all pretty close but channelfireball tends to have the best prices and quantity of foils. Non-foils are usually bought on eBay for me.

I never use ChannelFieeball because I live in CA so I get charged sales tax if I did T_T
Kid Icarus is really good for staples on eBay
I just suggest bidding on auctions that end during the AM /nonpeak hours to ensure low prices on playsets

Yep, that's how I got my signed Korean {Sliver Queen}
I usually never by online. My lgs usually has what I need. And if they don't nine times out of ten card kingdom has what I need and it's like a twenty minute drive to their shop fromu house. :P
Anyone know if buying cards from Singapore will have free shipping?
Depends who is shipping it :P

Lucky! My LGS sucks, he doesn't even get FNM promos (because he is a bum). If I want to get cards in person the closest besides him is at least an hour away and even then, they usually don't have what I need.

Many places around my house is like this. There are so many shops here in the valley, and it's almost unheard of that a handful doesn't carry singles. It's usually the shops that don't really focus on card games that don't have singles.

That blows man. My lgs has a huge selection of singles. Basically if I want it he has it. It also helps being good friends and old coworkers with the owner he usually has a binder of hard to find stuff he let's me go through.
My shop usually has a lot of EDH/modern items but they really lack on staples for standard like charms etc
No Kalonian hydras? There just went someone who wanted to spend $15...
I have been using Amazon and Amazon is pretty reliable so far. I have been using it for a couple of years.
