No, shop around. I use the 4 below + Ebay, even for new stuff. A lot of stores have an Ebay presence. Everyone charges tax these days, so just add price + shipping when comparing.

Gamenerdz is hard to beat for new stuff, esp as they have free shipping at $75+. TCGplayer is my go-to for singles. Cardkingdom is a decent backup. Sometimes one of them will be stupid on prices while the other is good, just various. And again, don't discount Ebay - I've yet to have a bad experience buying there - knock on wood.
If anyone has alternate sites I'd love to know as well.
Do you want Penny Sleeves for storage or to play with? Because if you want legit penny sleeves then anything will work they are penny sleeves but I use ultrapro its the most common out there chances are that's what you had.
If you want to play with "inners" then I swear by dragon shields.
I recently switched to Dragon shield Seal-able Inners and I think they are awesome, They have a flap that tucks in and gives you 4 side protection and fit great inside normal dragonshields.
It will double the size of your deck and will feel "puffy" for a bit but after a few games the air lets out and you are set.

Inner sleeves for double sleeving have a few different good ones. KMC also are very good. As for normal sleeves everyone has their favorite brands and it depends on what you want. KMC matte sleeves or their normal non metallic sleeves are my favorites, but Dragonshield and Katana are also excellent.

The pros near me swear by Katana. I prefer Dragonshield because the inner sleeves fit perfectly into them.

I love the dragon shield sealable inners, they’re fucking awesome (too bad Keranos wasn’t in one herp). I prefer matte Dragonshields for regular sleeves too. Husband prefers Katanas. Neither of us are a fan of UP; they’re too short IMO and my cards always pop out of the top.

There's zero reason for that extra point of toughness. I wish they'd fucking learn. If Deathrite had been a 1/1 it would still be legal, and goblins wouldn't have died a terrible death.

I want to say that 2019 was the worst year for magic as a game in a very very long time.
Hasbro may if made that Arena money but the game is seriously unfun outside of pioneer.
I lesser card game would of died if it had the year MTG did.
Between the glut of product being pushed down our throats, the crazy high power level of pushed cards that they included in said product combined with the slow response time to ban said powerful cards has really made standard and Modern very unfun at the moment.
Hogaak,Oko,KCI,OUAT W6 astrolabe all tore apart respective formats down to fucking legacy.
Banning faithless looting obliterated an entire archetype and let decks it was strong agaisnt (Urza) to take over the format. Oko is now the most played card in Modern.
Nothing less of an acknowledgement from WoTC that they fucked up royally this year in spite of the short term monetary gain they received by scamming people looking for full art Okos and OUAT or alt art cat cards that curl out of the box.
Ok Rant over.

I am a fan of KCI decks, Oko can DIAF. I like hoogak but fuck is he overpowered, like Sullivan says, dredge decks don't play magic.
W6 energizes in a ridiculous way with fetch lands and wastelands.
I spent more money last year ($300) in magic that I ever spend in the last decade. Magic Arena is the way of the future for me. Low cost and i get all the cards.

Arena is the way of the future if they didn't put the bare minimum into making the game better outside of adding cosmetics.
Shit needs Pioneer stat standard is NEVER good.

The only card among the busted ones I'm bothered by much is Oko, because PWs are dumb. The rest don't bug me. Even W6 is whatever, I prefer when they fix mistakes by printing counter cards than just banning shit.
Then again I'm also the guy who wants full power jund with DRS and W6 together. Shame we haven't seen that abomination. Bring it on.
