Marcus Munitions has expanded its business with Storage Deck Upgrades (SDU) in Borderlands 3. In previous games, these could be purchased at Crazy Earl’s Black Market. Earl only accepts Eridium for his services. Marcus, on the other hand, accepts regular cash money. And you know it, “No Refunds!”

What are storage deck upgrades?
Storage Deck Upgrades allow you to increase the amount you can carry. Your inventory is divided into multiple categories, therefore, there are upgrades for the different types of ammo, your grenades, backpack size, bank space, and the ‘Lost and Found’ Machine.
Each type of SDU can be purchased multiple times but as your inventory increases, so will the price of each upgrade.
