Can we please get a way to sort trade lists and, importantly on trade pages themselves?

I have over 2k cards on my want list and 7k cards on my trade list.  When I'm putting in a trade, especially a large one, I want to be able to focus on specific cards available by my trading partners first.

Here's an example where this person has over 150 cards across 7 pages I need to browse through first before I even start putting together the trade:
https://jmp.sh/Js3kSJlY+/Screen+Shot+2023-08-18+at+11.34.45+AM.png

I would really like to be able to sort these by Set and Price at a minimum.  Optimally, I could also have advanced filters just like we do on our Inventory and Wants.  Additionally, I see really good use of the "In other trades icon" here so we do not have to add items to our trade to see if it's already in other trades.

Once a trade is initiated, and especially approved, we should be able to sort the data.  This especially important when pulling cards. I think it fair to assume that most people have their collections sorted by set, not all card alphabetically, so locking it to Alphabetically makes pulling cards incredibly difficult.

In this example, My trade partner and I had about 200 cards each from dozens of sets:
https://jmp.sh/cn2mi7Kx+/GIF+Recording+2023-08-18+at+11.49.12+AM.gif

Shout out to Cheesewiz for the epic trade!

The technique I am forced to use is to start at the top and do all of the cards from the first set I hit, then once all of that set is pulled, move to the next unpulled card and repeat.  This is exhausting work because you have to remember what sets were pulled, and when you're done, you have to order everything back alphabetically to figure out the one card you missed... Please, at a minimum, allow for sorting by Set.

When the new functionality for storing locations is added, sort by location, then sort by set or alpha would be ideal.  This would allow users to know which trade box/binder to go to and then where to find it in the location depending on how they sort their collection.

Thank you for all you do to improve this platform Sebi.  Your work on this site is greatly appreciated.

Hey all,

I am looking to complete as much of the set as possible while prices are still at a post-release dip.

Here are my wants:
https://deckbox.org/sets/1462937?f=c377 … =m&o=d

And my filtered haves:
https://deckbox.org/sets/1462936?f=c3775.772


Would love to get a big trade in to get this set complete.  Prefer to trade like for like values where possible (mainly avoiding one $30 card for 60 $0.50 ones...)
Of course, I'm happy to trade from the rest of my binder for stuff as well.

I also started my trade stock with just cards I had collected over time - recently though, I started buying Collector's boxes - then I use any foils opened in there for trades for the non-foils from that set.  There's plenty of people looking for the hot new shiny, so this generally gets me better card return on my set wants then anything else.  I try to strike right after the sets are cracked as that's when the foil demand and price is highest.

Welcome to the group!

I've got quite a bit of the sets you listed - random odds and ends, so definitely let me know when you have all your wants listed for those and I can put stuff together with you.

Thanks for doing an introduction! I really appreciate it.

Looks like we have a bunch of stuff we could trade - I'm also happy to find more out of your tradelist to balance if there's more than what I have in wants.

Go ahead and start a trade with me of what you want, and I can match it up.

I welcome a try to revive this group.  Looking at the number of view for the posts, it looks like there is just going to be a small group of us for a while.  I'll go stick a link to the group in my profile as well.

I'm Paul and I've been collecting Magic since 1994, but starting as a poor college student meant that I never got any P9.  I'm going for a complete sets of all of the base versions (non-foil, non-showcase, etc.) of each set.  Right now I'm not getting any all-reprint sets like the Masters sets.  I have the major expansions from Legends to Theros Beyond Death complete, minus some of the base sets, beginner sets (missing Imperial Seal) and a few other cards.  I'm not great about posting my cards for trade, so I always have more to offer than my Tradelist says.  I'm hoping to finish up Unlimited (minus the P9), Arabian Nights (minus Bazaar) and Antiquities (minus Workshop) within the next couple years.

Hey Paul! Thanks for joining in. Would love to help you out with some of your standard set needs.  Feel free to check my wants and see if you have anything not listed in your haves.  Have lots of dupes from post-TBD that I'd be happy to bundle up for you.

Welcome, Michael ( https://deckbox.org/users/Samuel_Dread ) - Please make an introduction post if you feel like it.

Hey All,

I'm Chad - I'm based out of the US (Wisconsin) and also part-time in the Netherlands.

I've been playing Magic actively since 2016, but played in middle school from '94-96. I'm a victim of a garage sale mother though, so my whole collection from that time got snapped up for a few $ while I was in college!

I started a company in 2019 called Alter Sleeves and now work on M:tG stuff every day for work. You can check out our site at www.AlterSleeves.com

I mostly play Commander now and even stream regularly on Twitch.TV/MythicGamingTV

As for Set Completion, I'm finishing a complete singleton collection of all non-foil booster sets (inc. Master Sets) as well as all the non-reprint Commander cards from each Commander edition.  With the ever-growing number of variants in recent sets I've generally avoided the special foil-only sets unless they are cheap to trade for.

  • I've completed SOI - present, with only a few odds/ends for special printings

  • I'm now working backward, with a goal of stopping once I complete all modern frame sets

  • I'm also actively trying to get unique art promos, but they're not a high priority because some are just so expensive, so it's more of a trade filler

  • I've recently started picking up sets of Art Cards.  I plan to use these at events for signatures from artists

I'd love to make some big trades with you, especially that help us both hit big set completion goals.  Hit me up, especially after a new set drops to get a big trade for missing pieces!

Hey Traders,

This is a Welcome Post thread that we can use for new members.

If you are new to the Group, I encourage you to make a New Post - introduce yourself, and tell us what your set completion goals are.

Here's an Example, I'll post for myself:

I got some pretty good hits on my boxes (3 Collectors)

DMR Haves:
https://deckbox.org/sets/1462936?f=c372 … =i&o=d
DMR Wants:
https://deckbox.org/sets/1462937?f=c372 … =i&o=d

I'm prioritizing the Showcase (Old-style Frames) and the Full-Art Non-Foils

I'd like to keep values approximately the same, with the exception of sending you a foil of a card I am looking for the non-foil (difference in small wants is totally fine).

I did not add any of the standard art Commons/Uncomons to wants.  If you have an extra set of these (non-foil), I would be very happy to send you a big load of C/U foils.

I was thinking it would be easy to put up a new post for each set.  I'd put some basic details in it, and once you've opened your boxes or what not, you can come here and post what you got and what you are looking for:

DMR Dominaria Remastered
Release Date: 13 Jan 2023

Hey Set Traders,

Got a big post on FB Trading Only group, but I figured this would be a great place to shop it too:

Link coming as soon as it's approved: https://www.facebook.com/groups/4881588 … 757255982/

Photos will be up on FB post. Doesn't seem as useful to repost all of those here, since DB is much easier than browsing binders.

Copy/Paste:

Thanks for the friendly welcome and great first round of trades! I've got my full binder updated, and am looking to make some big trades!
A couple notes up front:

  • Not looking to do small trades of less than $20 due to postage costs

  • I'd like to keep values generally similar for any of my Haves over $10, although consideration for taking a big chunk of the low-value wants may be considered
    If you want to trade down I'm happy to take that trade

  • I always send tracked

Wants:
Google Sheets List
Decklist deck of Wants
All of these are towards completing sets, so version, foiling (or lack thereof), and language are ver. important.

If you're looking to pad some value, here's the rest of my Wishlist: Wishlist
Not really looking to browse binders except to pad a trade.

Haves:
As for what I have, the photos show my current binder of mostly +$3 and higher cards.
Most are NM, but if they are not I'll let you know

  • Inverted are foil

  • Foreign lang. cards (except the JPN excl. cards) are marked with their language. I will give a 15% trade in your favor if you want these

  • There are NO ALTERS or PROXIES. All of the ones with different/modified art are Alter Sleeves which I will send you with the card. They are inner sleeves, that can be easily removed

  • Unsettled Mariner has a Minor Misprint if you're into that kinda thing.

  • A full list of Haves is here and I'm happy to pad trades with anything here:
    Haves

  • The Sealed Product and Secret Lairs are available for trade - we can discuss value if you're interested.

I've already got a couple great trades in the group, but would love to beat the $250 trade I just did, so let's go big!

Hey all,

I'm Chad and I've taken over Modding this group as the previous Mod had abandoned it.

I'm looking for co-mods, so if anyone else is interested please step up and let me know.

My goal is to try to grow this board so that we as collectors can have a good pool of set traders for each new set (or old one).

I'll be looking to add a link to the forum in my personal description, feel free to copy and paste it into yours:

If you like making big trades when new sets come out to complete your set collections faster, come join the Set Collector community: https://deckbox.org/communities/set_col … et_trading

If you have any ideas or thoughts on how to get the most out of this community and help it grow please let me know in the comments.

Yeah, the trade page and the "intersection" listing that you see when visiting another user's profile both need some sorting options soon. It's on the list!

The addition of [if in another trade] has been super helpful! If you're updating this anyway, an indicator of if something is in your wishlist, or especially if it's a "loose match" being offered in the trade.

Recently I've seen a rise of trades being offered (and me accepting) where the card offered in the trade is not exactly the version in my wishlist - usually this is just foiled, when I only wanted non-foil.  Having a marker in trades that shows if it's in another trade, and if it's in your wishlist (or loosely matched) would really help with a lot of the multi-tab trade building that goes on now.

Thanks for your reception to our feedback, and keep up the great work!

Thanks Sebi! This is great to get in.

With so many things coming every set, would it be helpful for us in the community to maybe have one post where we list before a set comes out what is expected like:

To Be Added:

ONC Commander Set - Target Date for Upload

I'm sure we on the Forum could consolidate and get you linked sources to all of this after spoiler season is done, so then it's just a checklist of getting through it.

Then you could copy that post and add target upload dates.  This would greatly reduce the amount of "Still Missing XYZ" posts as we could point to these type of posts, and the target upload dates.

I'd be happy to try doing this for MOM if you confirm the format, and what all sections you'd want.

I’ve tried playing around with the URL to get this same effect - however I’ve had no luck. what I recommend is setting the minimum value using the search tool, then sort by value and you should be able to find the range you’re looking for.

Thank you Sebi!  This fixed sorting is something that will definitely help.

Is it possible to apply this sorting to Trades as well?

https://jmp.sh/z0gM7YoJ+/GIF+Recording+2023-02-21+at+12.53.14+PM.gif

When we have large trades, I'm sure a lot of us would like different ways of sorting than just alphabetical.

The trade above has 60+ cards in it.  I sort my trade library by Set, so an ability to reorder this now that you fixed the set order bug would make pulling these cards so much easier and less prone to error.

Thank you!

Thanks Sebi!

Updates are always appreciated!

We are almost there with ONE, I think we're just missing the Art Series now:
