just as the title says, I wanted to buy some stuff that they had in stock, and wanted to know how reputable they were.

I've never bought from them, but I imagine you'll be fine, they're pretty major.

i think they are good. it is a major store so i doubt it would rip people off since "everybody" would know about it you know? When I ordered from them they were very professional but I probably wont order boxes from them anymore. One time i preoredered zendikar and got it about 3 weeks later after release.....

If LSV, TSG, Brad Nelson are all sponsored by them and are writers, and avid pro players.There really is no choice not to trust them, they have an ebay account, online store, blogs, buylists, youtube accounts. I would not question the legitimacy of that company. Just my 2 cents.

I will never buy from them, they ripped me off for an $8 card.After countless emails with promises of a replacement, and which in the meantime my chance to file a claim with paypal passed, they never came through and stopped replying to me.

I have purchased from them twice now and they have been fair and honest both times. The first package got sent late due to M11 pre-sales being crazy, and I was given $10 in store credit. The 2nd time, an order of mine was packaged incorrectly (I got blackcleave goblins instead of blackcleave cliffs) - I notified them and they immediately shipped the correct cards, no questions asked. They're rather new as an online store, so there will be some kinks. But so far, customer service has been very good and I wont hesitate to order again.

Be prepared for them to hold your order for days. It's a big issue for them.I ordered 8 Day of Judgements from them after M11 came out. It took a week for the cards to leave their store.

I would only deal with them in person. Ive gotten alot of cards from them at ptq's, and there prices are pretty good on alot of cards. There buylist is pretty insane sometimes too. They pay more for cards then they go for on this site.

I've ordered stuff online from them twice with no issues. They are a credible store. I wouldn't worry about putting in an order with them.

I've ordered from them twice. No problems at all. Took about a week for the cards to arrive here, that's pretty fast considering I'm in Europe.

I'm one of their competitors and I can tell you from making multiple orders from them in the past that they are fairly reliable when it comes to buying from them both on price and condition. The only issue is if you try and buy from them to resell for a profit in which they'll limit you to 4 like most other shops.The only complaints i've heard are when you sell to them but buying from them has never been a problem for me.

I've sold to them twice, without a problem. I used my sales as store credit, to which I bought several cards. 6 of them to be NM, and 1 to be SP.I would say that the 6 were in SP, and the SP card had a small crease, and was SP as well. I've bought from Star City before too a few times. When I bought NM cards from SCG...they were NM or better. FWIW
