How do you carry your decks around? | 5/11/2012 3:58:42 PM |

Basically I'm looking to carry around something like 15 sleeved and boxed decks. My old case doesn't cut it. While I am asking figured I'd see if anyone had a cool way to do it as well. My old case is something very similar to the Ultra Pro one, but it is offbrand and came with a different foam cut out, as well as being deeper. So buying the Ultra Pro one simply doesn't do it Unless I have to buy 2, which is what I'm trying to avoid.)

I just use Ravnica fat pack boxes and stick some deck boxes in those. With 15 decks I might consider a shoebox or a backpack or something. __________  Worthless Koridian! You must be HARDENED with fire! GO, and KILL!

The problem with a Shoe Boxe is that it will.. crumble. Cardboard just falls apart to the abuse I put my stuff through.

You want the good answer or the inexpensive answer? The good answer is keep them in magnetic cases (like those from Max Pro or the new UltraPro ones). If you had 5-6 decks, you could then use an UltraPro carrying case. Problem is, you say you have 15. So you may want to instead use something like a Citadel carrying case that's made for miniatures games. They make foam inserts which have tear-out sections to customize the size of the holding sections. That may be your best bet if you want to carry all of them around.  Dude, am I blowin' your mind yet or what? "If your question is, 'I don't understand how this card works,' I will always answer with, 'read it again until you understand how it works.'"

Seriously considering Getting measurements on a Hard Cased Tool Box and using it after modding it.

Would would Æther Tech do? WWATD (pronounced "what") Get fat pack box (which holds 3 EDH decks nicely) Take out cardboard insert in top half, burn or throwaway. Wrap in metalized aluminium tape (duct tape) /lastsforever. not kidding, I have had one box now for close to 4 years and its still in good condition, solid and sturdy and I beat it up a lot.

i got a plastic craft/file box at walmart its tall enough and wide enough to hold over 20 deck boxes,a flat craft box(that has seperate chambers in it for my dice and tokens),a play mat, and room for a few other small things as well. i highly recommend this.

Rolling suitecase holds X 3-ring binders (currently i Have 5) and 3 deck boxes securely. Along with play mats, a bag of dice.

Backpack is a thing I keep hearing. I think that's probably the answer.

Yeah it's probably the best idea for carrying around tons of cards. I have a nice black one with a bunch of nifty straps and pockets. Not custom made to hold deckboxes or what have you, but a lot easier to roll it around than juggle a shoebox and a couple binders. __________ Worthless Koridian! You must be HARDENED with fire!

I'm with AEther Tech on this one. Wrapped a regular deck box you can buy at any gameshop in duct tape and had it for +2yrs now. Little wear, but it's solid.

I have two eski bags which fit a total of 29 decks in both perfectly. One of them fits 18 decks and the other 11. “Counterspell Buy = stuff any deck/combo up. Force of Will Buy = stuff any deck/combo up with the added bonus of yelling out "surprise"! Remember, nothing in magic is unbeatable.” Please post your Synergies here: The Synergy Page Thank you.
