Had to sell most of cards to SCG for store credit and then stil had to spend a litte over $60 but by Friday I should have my very own Mox Pearl in my hands.. sorry, just felt like sharing :)

Are you going to be playing with it? If so, and you probably already know about this, but double sleaving will be very important. When you're talking about the prices on these cards it's horrible to see it drop a whole tier in quality, especially if you ever need to sell it for $$$ one day.

completely agree.. lol, as I was buying it actually crossed my mind if triple sleeving was a thing :p I don't play too much nowadays but still collect and so this will be going into a deck and probably just sitting while gaining (or at least holding) in value. My luck though, MaRo is gunna post something about doing away with the reserve list and my investment goes to shyt. Either way, I have been wanting a mox for a while and now I am just excited for it to get here :)

You can triple sleeve. TTC did a vid on Custom Sleeves and you can clear sleeve the colored sleeve, with a perfect fit inside.

Played from unlimited, cheapest one they had that was tournament legal. I'll never leave the house with it but it helps if I ever want to sell it.

KMC perfect fit > any normal sleeve (KMC hyper mats being the best) > KMC strong hard

Is what you need for triple sleeving.

panda don't worry about the reserve list. One of the only explicit things maro has ever said was that he hates the reserve list, thinks it is detrimental to magic, but that getting rid of it would be even worse, so it will stay in place

KMC perfect fit - Dragonshield sleeve (thicker plastic) - Outer sleeve used in custom sleeving - penny sleeve - toploader - custom fitted steel sleeving - hole cut into bible or other thick book (Stephen king's IT highly recommended) - small steel chain wrapped around book - Cherry Wood box with sunburst finish - Office safe - Gun cabinet - bank vault

I mean, that's how I store my power pieces. Make sure you get the right kind of steel chain though, some of them like to slip off of your books.
