Hi! Doug Linn of Quiet Speculation here, bringing you interviews with the top minds in Magic finance. Each week, I'll be bringing you an hour-long interview with people tapped into the MTG Finance community on every level. Whether you're a Friday Night Magic hero with a binder full of staples or you want to make this hobby pay for itself, there's plenty to learn in each show.
You can listen to and download this week's episode HERE.
This week, my guest is Carter Hatfield of Perfect Storm MTG. He's been playing for twenty years and we reminisce about the good old/bad old days and how he became a dealer. You'll find out:
-What cards sell well for Carter
-How he's solved the problem of getting enough inventory to sell
-Why you need help to run a store as big as his
-Whether he'll sell a card for a dime
and plenty more!
What I really liked in the interview is that Carter is a family man and uses his Magic dealing to provide a steady job for himself that also lets him cut out to spend the morning at his childrens' school. That's a flexibility that not a lot of jobs have. I think you'll really like this interview.

As you'll hear in the interview, Carter finds his subscription to Quiet Speculation to be essential for making money on Magic. If you want to find out more about QS, you can click here.

Nice interview! Carter is local to me and he is a real asset to our local community. Having a reputation for dealing with people fairly will carry you a long way in this business. Not only that, Carter sponsors Team Perfect Storm, a team that has launched some of West Michigan’s best players including Rookie of the Year, Raz Perez. You could learn a lot from him the way I have.
Thank you Jason, your words humble me.
