Just a quick question about pucatrade.
I've added cards to my want list and have a few points. Do I get to see what people are sending before I receive it? Or does it just come? My issue specifically is that I have tectonic edge on my want list but I don't want to receive like hundreds of ted edges haha.
well, from what I've seen, If you have one Tectonic Edge on your want list, the first person to send you that card removes the card from your want list. So if you want a full playset, you have to add it to your want list 4 times.
Now what I'm having issues with is the auto-match feature. I've uploaded TONS of cards, including really popular ones, ones that I KNOW people are asking for, yet nothing ever comes up on the auto-trade que. Do you have that problem?

Unsure. There are barely any people trading in the UK and Europe anyway, but maybe. I have like damnations and survival of the fittest and fetch lands and all sorts and i only have two matches - both for bloody Toxic Deluge haha.
So basically I have to add the card 4 times if i want a playset. That's a bit shit.

yeah, but It does keep you from getting sent a shit ton of one card on your want list, i guess.

The system is like that to prevent someone from sending you hundreds of them lol. The high-profile trades go quickly. People asking for fetches, Damnation, etc. get them almost immediately. People are alarmingly quick about it

That's what I keep reading, but I've honestly NEVER seen one pop up on my auto-match. And I have fetches, Shocks, and other high money cards. Just out of curiosity, what browser are you guys using?

Yeh but it would be better if there was a box where I could just write the number 4 in to signify the fact that I want 4, instead of having to add the card 4 times.

Every time I have added fetches, 4x Windswept Heath, 4x Wooded Foothills, 2x Bloodstained Mire, they were picked off immediately. Same with 2x Geist of Saint Traft. I use firefox on desktop and mobile chrome on android

The problem with puca trade is that there aren't enough points in the system yet. Those with enough points to buy whatever they want don't seem to want anything that anyone else has to offer, which makes people so desperate to send out anything that once they do get a match, there's literally no contest, This was the problem with the site when I first signed up a few years ago, and now that it's gotten a bit more popular in recent months, it's still an issue.
Personally, I would just use the site to spend real money on points, then get your cards without having to shop around for them because some desperate soul has been trying on PT to get theirs off for weeks.
Of course, this is coming from one afternoon's experience on the site, i'm not a long-term user.

Typo: 'ted edges' should read 'tec edges'.
