This is a nice card. Use Draco Slytherin
as your starter, get this out, and then start having fun. Early
on, you can get all the green books. Mid-game, Moonseed Poison or
Silver Unicorn Horn are nice choices. Late game, the Bulgeye rules.
If you're too impatient to wait until you have 10 lessons out, you
can use this to fetch Eel Eyes and Beetle Eyes, using them to "pay"
for Bulgeye's high casting cost. You could also try fetching cauldrons.
My favorite is Golden, although some prefer Pewter or Self-Stirring.
You'll find this kind of deck develops fast, opening up the way
for high cost potions spells, such as Potions Class Disaster. If
your opponent isn't playing with potions items, they won't find
this card very helpful to them, either. So my advice is to give
this a try - it's a strange but strong deck to play.

This card is perfect in Draco, Slytherin
decks. For one action, take ANY potions item from your deck to your
hand! Thats the same as drawing it! You could take one Bulgeye and
use it, and repeat it turn after turn! The only downside is your
opponent can do it to you, too... But, if your opponent isn't running
Potions, its win-win! I really like this card, its in my Draco,
Slytherin/Disaster deck, and it really helps. The only problem is
I want to use Wand Shop too...

Ah the Potions are at it again
Spoiling Draco Malfoy, Slytherin
To gain an action and a card
The Cauldron Shop should be bard
It's a fast way to gain quick power
A stirring of the Boil Cure shower
It has hidden use as a deck shuffler
It's a "cards on the bottom of the deck" muffler
Keep in mind when damage you need
It can call Bulgeye, Beetle Eyes, or Moonseed
It doesn't cost much and it blocks Wand Shop
It's an item flurry you just can't stop
Beware who do not use potion items and not this
It will give you power you would not want to miss
Pewter, Silver, Golden, and Self-Stirring
This card makes Malfoy like a cat that's purring

Well kiddies lets do shopping for
your favorite teacher and mine, Severus Snape. Now I know you're
favorite teacher is me of course, but I'm sure you're second favorite
is Severus, so its like he's your first since everyone loves me
(Flashes his award winning smile). Now this Location is just awesome
if you ask me. Its almost as good as Wand Shop, in the fact that
if you're playing w/ Beetle Eyes, Moonseed, Byou're using bulgeye,
and Cauldrons, you can spend one action to find that card, another
to play it, and then if using Draco Malfoy, Slytherin, you get another
action. This makes for some very cool combos and lets you get the
card you need to do damage to your opponent. This is very useful,
and its rating is well deserving.

Cauldron Shop is a pretty good location
especially for that Sly Mr. Malfoy. Early game, you can get simple
items such as Magical Drafts and Potions.... Move up to Cauldrons...
Go onto damage with Moonseed and Bulgeye... and if you're in trouble,
grab that Silver Unicorn Horn. All in all i think this location
provides you with the most options of cards you could use. Your
opponent might capitalize on it, but if you have more items and
are better prepared, you should get the upper hand with this location.
And that.... as they say... is that

This is *absolutely* a card for a
Draco Malfoy, Slytherin deck. The biggest advantage of using this
combo is that if you look for the item you want and play it right
away, you don't lose the action to get it! Cauldron Shop is particularly
good in a high costing deck since you can get all the Cauldrons
you want early game. Very good card but not very versatile yet that's
why I'll give it a...
