A few weeks ago my son and I were playing at our LGS official registered D&D night. After the adventure concluded, my son recieved the magic item of the adventure: a ring of evasion. The DM didn't have the official magic item card on hand and said he would check with the store. Last night he did and they don't have a card for the item either. How does one obtain a card since both the DM & registered Game store don't have it?

 

(I have the store & DM's information if  there is an online resource to contact.)

 

Thanks for your help!

Basically if you don't have a cert, you still get the item -- it's AL-legal if it's on the log sheet and was honestly obtained -- you just don't get to trade it.

That is a really nice item, so I would advise against trading it anyway. :)

To answer your question, don't sweat it. Lots of people get items without certs and it's no big deal. There were only a limited amount printed (and then reprinted) and sent to the stores anyway. It's not a big deal to be lacking a cert.

(For reference, I've gotten multiple magic items on a number of different characters -- to date, I only have one with an actual cert. And I ain't trading that away for nothin'!)

Thank you Oraibi, my only concern is that if I take him to his first Con, how can I prove to the DM who's running a game that he actually recieved the item?

All you need is the log entry in his log sheet. Do you have an up to date log sheet for him?

You won't need a certificate or a signed logsheet (we don't make DMs sign, players doing the paperwork), you just need the item noted on the character's logsheet. You shouldn't need to prove you have the item. Usually the only time someone is going to look sideways at you is if you have a strange item not released in the campaign (or at least not in an adevnture you played), or you have a strangely large number of items. Having the certificate just allows the character to trade the item.
