Vraska for Trade($30)

The Trading Post forum

Posted on Sept. 30, 2012, 11:24 p.m. by SevenSeasAgo

I have a Vraska the Unseen . She's priced at about $40. I'm pricing her around 30-35. I'm looking for Rakdos, Lord of Riots and Blood Crypt s. I have done online trading before but I'm new to this website so since I don't have any vouches, I'm willing to send first.

This is a terrible site to go off of, because it uses the average prices of multiple websites. I use Starcity Games because they give you a definite price.

... Isn't an average internet price exactly what you would want, versus SCG's inflated, arbitrarily posted prices?

An average price from many different websites' prices would be far more accurate to what the card is actually worth. SCG doesn't always follow what cards are worth because they're a huge company and schmucks who don't care about getting ripped off will buy from them regardless of prices.

MagicCard.info's prices are the basis for the prices on most websites and in most game shops. In fact, most people selling or trading cards use it to find the value of what they have/want.

What I'm getting at here is that you should competitively price your card. Why would I set up a back-alley deal with a stranger over the internet when I could just buy the card for less money from a refutable online dealer?

I'm trying to help you.

You make a valid point. But might I point out that when trying to get rid of a card, you WANT to go with the big, expensive price? And if everything has an extra price added, then it's still a fair deal, assuming I price using starcity on both sides of the deal.

... Not really. Some of SCG's prices are pretty out of whack. It's far safer to rely on MagicCards.info, because you'll have the average price of anything involved in the trade. And that's as fair as you can get.

Her average price from around the internet (including CardKingdom) is currently about $28. I expect that number to fall, since she hasn't really shown up in any Top 8 lists from the weekend.

Her price has dropped as of today. Sadly, I made the trade RIGHT after her priced dropped about $15
