Never tried the Arcane Porper, just the stainless one.

Try the advice above:  try removing at least the ad cards and maybe the jokers as well, give the clip a chance to get broken in a little and gradually add cards until it springs out a little more, enough to allow the full deck to fit.  A little work with some tools might help stretch it a bit, but you also could risk breaking the clip if you aren't careful and there's also the chance of stretching it too much so it stops holding a deck at all.

Porper clips are meant to give you a firm grasp on the cards, to literally flatten them in a manner similar to a deck press.  Great for the cards, not so great for the box.

I have an Ellusionist Arcane Stainless Clip, a black E-Sized porper clip, and the Gun Metal Arcane porper clip.  I use the Arcane one the most because it's amazing, but as far as functionality is concerned, the black porper clip is the best.  If you are careful taking the cards in and out of the clip, the Arcane Porper will not do any more or less damage to your cards than the regular one, just hit the inside with some sandpaper real quick.  It makes sure there are no sharp edges under the Ace cutout that will damage your box.


The Porper clips are magnificent at keeping a deck in good condition, the deck box however, will suffer damage over time.  This is just a fact of life.  Nothing lasts forever, but the Porper clips will extend the life of your cards.

That is exactly the perfect sentence that summarizes the clip. It's tough for me to decide to take that risk. I put two decks in twice, and I couldn't really get them out.

Perhaps a standard flat deck clip would be better for you?  They're easier to deal with, though they don't press the cards like a Porper will.  If you want to flatten your cards, just buy a deck press, or lay out your cards in even stacks under some heavy books.
