| can I just be a dick and ask how are you going to manage this? Do you have ANY idea how much work it takes? And more importantly money? Do you have £1000? Because otherwise you'll just sell small companies decks for more than the small companies sell them for, no one will buy from you, and you'll fail. Exactly what happened to fusion. Stuff like doesn't really help the scene at all, it just makes it seem like the UK is less legit imo. |

| Got to agree with Kerry here. You're no Flatface. I suggest making decks yourself instead. |

| i have nearly £800, i have been saving up for a while and I also asked my dad to buy me a lottery ticket and I won £150 so that has helped a lot, I know what everyone is saying but i put a lot of effort into everything i do and i know sometimes i get annoyed because i think why does shipping take so long to the uk but hopefully i am going to provide the uk scene with products from around the world. anyone else got any ideas for companies that i could sell? |
