Here's my wishlist: http://deckbox.org/sets/245651
I do have a box coming in either today/tomorrow, but seeing as I need 4 of's for most of my list, I'd still be needing to trade for a majority of the cards on there.
Send your offers! I'll take a look at anything.
Thanks.
EDIT: I also have a Foil Dreadbore and Foil Skaarg Goliath if anyone is interested in those too

I'm not trying to pick a fight, but I had always assumed that trade value was always higher than cash value (uness "retail value" is something different). The reasoning was that, if I have cash to buy cards, I would rather go to the cheapest source (either TCG low or ebay) and I'm entitled to do that since I'm using cash to trade for cards. On the other hand, trading cards for cards usually allows both people to try and come up with a fair value for all the cards involved (usually TCG med or other retail outlet). Hence, I always expect a discount from the "trade value" when I pay cash since you can then use the cash to do whatever you want whereas trading a card only allows you to keep trading cards.
Not sure what reignofkindo is thinking but you're right. Trade value is always above retail if you're going logically. Most people just use retail to retail in trades so it doesn't matter.
In MTG; values are set pretty nicely using TCGplayer.
In YuGiOh and Cardfight Vanguard, they haven't developed a sophisticated enough TCGplayer type site so they just use trade value as ~$5 above cash value.
I know dude, this got out of hand in a hurry. Basic economics went out the window with this post...

I didn't mean to start a shit storm, I just found this case to be kind of funny when one card IS valued at foil value, but others aren't, like one foil is more magically delicious than others. I don't care how people value as long as it's fair.
You want to use TCG Minimus, great, use it on both sides.
You want to value your foil as a foil, let others do as well.That's all I'm saying, it's about being fair is all.
No, you DID intend on starting it. Why even chime in? None of this concerned you. I'm not scamming anyone nor am I intentionally ripping anyone off. I'm clearly stating what I value cards at, foiled or not. Foils don't interest me, so I trade them away at their foiled price. If someone offers me a foil, I tell them I only value it at the regular non-foiled price
Just because I personally value foils like a regular card doesn't mean I can't value the foils I'm trading for their foiled value when I know there's demand and value for them.

I know right? Thanks but I traded it away. I know a friend of mine has a foil shaman as well. I'll message you if he intends on trading it.

Ebay arguments are irrelevant... cash does not equal trade value in cards.
What? Did you read my post? It was about how you're asking for even more in trade than SCG has them at. Me mentioning ebay values was just an aside. The whole post was about.. what you just said. "cash does not equal trade value in cards." Trade Value is always LESS than retail value, not more. Why would someone trade their cards using prices that are MORE than what the cards cost, even from the most expensive of retailers?
I forgot SCG is the bible of card values... my fault
EDIT: Also look at when this was originally posted... prices fluctuate... please get off my ass about this.

Just as someone is able to value cards at whatever they want, people are also able to refuse whatever they want.
People often take offense to being lowballed, so I would not suggest offering regular card prices for their foil counterpart, regardless of your view on foils.
If a foil is the only version of a card you're able to obtain, you should probably get over the fact that it'll likely cost you more in trades, or move on to someone else who has a regular version of the card you're looking for.+1
What really bugs me about this is valuing it at $65 when SCG has them at $60 and you can pick one up on Ebay for $40-50. Trade Value is less than retail, not more. It's one thing to not have it on your tradelist and get inquiries on it that you say "I really don't want to get rid of this card, but I will if you offer me more in trade than SCG prices. Otherwise, I want to keep it" to, but actively looking to trade it at a value more than even SCG has it at irks me.
Ebay arguments are irrelevant... cash does not equal trade value in cards.

If you don't want foils, then you shouldn't be trading for them instead of screwing that guy out of the value you freely acknowledge is there.
I'm not freely trading for foils... I opened them and don't want them. Why would I trade for $50 less when that's not what the card is worth
