Hi guys

Maybe there are already other threads being opened for that request but anyway, here's what I'd like to know:

I have bought a set of CE P9 because the prices of 'original' ones went up so high that they became unafordable for me.

Now, I'd like them to look, of course, like their tournament legal counterparts and trimm the corners like Beta.

How could I do that to get the most effective and satisfying result?
I know there are some corner trimmers out there but has anyone experiences with those?

Thanks for any help.
Alessio

Trade the undamaged ones you have to someone who has already clipped the corners.. that way you don't ruin your cards and you don't destroy another set of CE.

Plus you can usually get a premium since yours are NM and theirs would not be due to clipped corners.

I would agree with that if my copies were Nm. But the ones I got yesterday (all 6 Artifacts) are already inked along the borders, so it doesn't matter at all.

if you are going to clip them, id just use nail clippers and sorta work your way around it.

Can't you get a die cutter with the round of magic cards? I think they are for sale on the internet.

This is what I did and it looks good, be sure to have clean sharp clippers
