ok so i keep my MTG cards in the bedroom where i sleep. Today i found bed bugs on my bed and am now clearing out all the funiture and sh*t from my room. I looked it up online and it seems the best way to rid of bed bugs for small things is to put them in the freezer.
I haven't seen any but im not taking chances. Is there a chance that my MTG cards will be damaged if they are in the freezer for a day or two?

Never tried before, but if you keep them from icing over by putting them in a container of some sort (keep out the moisture) I think they'd be fine. It's cardboard after all..
If you get icing on it, that could damage the cards once they defrost (water damage can be cruel). It would be hard to remove otherwise though.
Can imagine you want to get rid of them though.

Try with random bulk first for the approximate length of time they would be in there for, and see for yourself before putting valuables in

Try with bulk as stated but you should also vacuum pack them as best you can. The cooler temperature can cause the moisture in the air to condense which will ruin you cards before it freezes. So hopefully you live in like Death Valley.
