Any interest in an iPod Nano (with the click wheel style design)? Fairly certain I should have one in a drawer somewhere.

In addition to the rest of my trade list, I have some cards for Modern Faeries for trade.

  • 4 Bitterblossom

  • 4 Mistbind Clique

  • 4 Scion of Oona

  • 2 Secluded Glen

Also, I'm not actively looking to trade the following, but for the right deal would be open to discussing something.

  • 2 Mutavault (MOR)

  • 2 Creeping Tar Pit

  • 2 Darkslick Shores

  • 4 River of Tears


I am looking for a wide variety of cards for Commander, Legacy, etc. For the Bitterblossoms, I'm particularly interested in trading for the following cards, and am especially interested in trading away the entire playset at once if possible (doesn't have to be to the same person). For wants on the Reserved List, I'm certainly willing to discuss what a reasonable trade premium would be.

  • Mox Diamond

  • Palinchron

  • Gilded Drake

  • Yawgmoth's Will

  • Thoughtseize (LRW)

  • Demonic Tutor (3ED)

  • 3 Infernal Tutor (DIS)

  • Scalding Tarn (ZEN)

  • Misty Rainforest (ZEN)

  • Verdant Catacombs (ZEN)


I'm also interested in some assorted lower-value cards for Commander, and am generally happy to pick up other staples (KTK fetches, shocklands, etc.):

  • Necropotence (ICE)

  • Toxic Deluge

  • Decree of Pain

  • Rolling Earthquake (From the Vault)

  • Delay

  • Haze of Rage

  • Dragonshift

  • etc.

Feel free to hit me up with a trade proposal if you see anything of interest.

I have a few things. I'll send you a trade request and see if you can find anything else to make up the difference.

Bump. Still looking for three Infernal Tutors and a Jitte. Also looking to pick up a Death's Shadow (WWK).

Edit: Found a Jitte. Still looking for the rest.

I've got quite a few of your wants, but better check my tradelist to confirm if there is anything you really want (some even include the items posted). I see somethings from your tradelist for sure. Start a trade if you need any of them.

Thanks! None of those are super high priority apart from a couple <$2 cards. I don't see any matches with anything on my tradelist, but if you see anything you're interested in we could probably work something out. I'll look around a bit and send a proposal if I see something, and of course feel free to do the same!

I'm looking to trade for a few miscellaneous Legacy cards:

  • 3 Infernal Tutor

  • 1 Death's Shadow (WWK prefered)

  • 3 Standstill

  • 1 Chrome Mox

  • 1-2 City of Solitude

  • 1-2 Mana Maze1

I'm looking mostly to trade equal value cards (or trade up), but I'm willing to consider any offers. Shoot me an offer if you see anything on my tradelist you're interested in.

I may take you up on that; I make art with damaged cards (like these magnets). Is the wear on these cards mostly frayed corners and dinged borders? If that's the case and the art's still intact, I'd have a use for them!

In some cases the cards themselves are a bit worn (looks like a lot of them were played without sleeves, as we did back in the day), but many should be suitable for art projects. Send me a trade request for the cards you'd be interested in, and I can check them. smile

Also, I still have the box of other less playable cards, so if you're interested in anything in particular I can take a look through the box.

I bought a Craigslist collection of Revised to Urza’s Legacy era cards, and have a bunch of acceptably decent cards for trade. However, many of them are in somewhat rough shape. I imported them as ‘played’ and corrected as best I could, but am happy to send pictures if you are interested. Due to their condition, I’m offering a 50% discount from TCG Market / Deckbox / whatever prices for the cards below (and others in similar condition that I may have forgotten to re-write below). Some/most of these are lower-value cards, but I’m happy to do a lower-value trade if you’re interested. (Though if it’s too many cards for a plain envelope, I’d like it to be closer to $10 to offset the shipping cost).

Please let me know if you’re interested in these (or, of course, any other trades).

4 Urza’s Tower (Chronicles)
3 Urza’s Mine (Chronicles)
4 Urza’s Power Plant (Chronicles)
1 Urza’s Mine (Antiquities)
2 Meekstone
2 The Rack
1 Helm of Awakening
6 Black Vise
2 Ashnod’s Altar
1 Summer Bloom
1 Vernal Bloom
5 Lightning Bolt
3 Pyroblast
9 Goblin Grenade (mostly FE; two Anthologies)
1 Jokulhaups (Ice Age)
1 Goblin King (4th)
1 Unearth
4 Hymn to Tourach
3 Brainstorm
3 High Tide
3 Counterspell (Ice Age)
1 Merchant Scroll

A couple other things from the lot for trade that aren't half-off:
2 Mystical Tutor
1 Blood Moon (Chronicles)

And of course the rest of my tradelist.

I have a new-in-box Zendikar vs. Eldrazi duel deck that I'd be interested in trading for a variety of things not too picky on this one as long as the values are approximately equal. Please let me know if you're interested. Cheers!

I have one of each of those cards (Torrential Gearhulk, Spirebluff Canal, & Thing in the Ice) I could trade towards the Flusterstorm, if there is anything else on my tradelist that would be of interest (foil Selfless Spirit, Wandering Fumarole, Combustible Gearhulk, etc.). Depending on the card, I may also be willing to trade out of my inventory.

So... This is my first time posting a trade message on the Deckbox forums. I browse /r/MagicTCG a lot, but have yet to post anything ( hmm ), but I figured I may as well post this here in case someone sees it and is interested.

I have a number of Standard cards for trade (as well as some Modern cards). I'm mostly interested in Unhinged or Beta basic lands, or cards for Modern or EDH. Depending on the trade, I'd be willing to offer a modest premium trading my Standard cards for your non-Standard cards.

Pyromancer Ascension (6) [1 Italian; 3 German; 2 English]
Primeval Titan [Promo]

...and other assorted stuff.

New user here. First post on the forums, in fact. Figured this was a good reason to actually make a post. smile

A bit of background: I bought a large collection on CraigsList which included some higher value cards I don't want for myself, so I am trading for cards to finish a couple decks. So far, two of my first four trades have been >$50, with the most recent ~$150. On both of these (as well as a ~$20 trade), I traded with users who had good reputations and clear, pleasant communication, and had no major concerns about shipping first. If Deckbox had limited my ability to make these trades until I had a feedback score of [X], I am not sure I would have bothered with trying to trade on the site at all.

On the proposal: I would have to agree with 9700377, hailing_frequency, Amurphcs, etc. I think the 'common sense' suggestions make the most sense -- ask newer users to send first, add clear warnings about trades that are outside of proposed guidelines. Adding too much structure is overly limiting, and forces users to make trades they might not really want to make just to 'gain levels'.

I do think adding a 'verified account' mark (really, this should be the checkmark, and the premium account designation should be a blue ribbon or something -- but that's beside the point) for people who verify using a credit card / PayPal is a good step. I am not a premium user yet (I still haven't even played in a constructed event, even FNM, so first things first...), and I'm not sure I would want to buy from sellers on this site rather than TCGplayer, but I would definitely be willing to link a credit card to the site to verify my authenticity/good intentions/etc.

In short, I like the idea of:
* Clear warnings & guidelines on trade page
* Verified account mark
* Leave the rest up to common sense

My $0.02, for whatever they're worth.
