I decided to start this series to focus on more general aspects of MTG finance. The two series will work together, as when […]

Greetings and salutations, kind readers. Before we jump into today’s article, let’s get the introductions out of the way. My name is Greg Peloquin, but pretty much everyone in the Magic community calls me G Pelly. I am an ardent PTQ warrior and level 1 judge. I’m no pro, but I’ve had my fair share […]
