Truthfully, at the moment, I'm not too worried about the pain it takes to find a trade.  That's inherent to the process right now, but that process will hopefully be changing to support much of what you guys have suggested (filtering down the trading opportunities in more/different ways).

And I understand completely the process of seeing a trade come in, meaning to come back to it and forgetting that it was sitting there and not responding.  I've been there, done that, and I don't fault people for doing it, or getting upset about it.  I'd suggest that if you don't receive a response at all that you just give it a quick bump a while later by adding another line in the chat to see if the other party is interested or not.  It is easy to forget about trades if you don't constantly look at the page, or if you have a lot of trades going on at once; feel free to lend a helping hand in the memory process.

A little trick that most people might not know is that you can actually see if somebody has viewed the messages that you sent on the trade.  Just like on your trades page, where it shows that you have unread messages on a particular trade, the same can be viewed on other people's trades by going to their profile and then to their Trades page.  Any trades with unread comments will have the comment icon next to them, so you can determine if the other person has even seen your comment or not.

My concern is more with how people handle themselves once a trade is initiated, essentially nullifying that whole process of finding somebody to trade with because they don't talk before taking action.

You're able to get to Deckbox using 4G with T-Mobile?  That's odd since I think we're even in the same state.......

Go here and put in the text that you wish to appear in your signature.

There is already this functionality available.

When you hover over a row in your Inventory, an icon will appear next to the name of the card like this:

Clicking on that icon will popup more information about the card, which includes a tab that has all of the deck information.

One more click than what you're suggesting, but it definitely doesn't take an additional page load and I haven't had any issues with it.

Intriguing foils, eh? ..... I have a foil Gush from MM.

Generally it is very difficult and expensive to get delivery confirmation across borders like that.  I believe that people have stated that it costs a minimum of $15 to get the delivery confirmation, and even then it isn't always trustworthy.

I've done a few trades to Canada from the US and haven't had any issues with shipping (though it might take a while longer than normal).  That being said, I, personally, wouldn't trade with somebody across borders who doesn't have an extensive trade history because you really need to trust that they're not going to screw you over.

There is an update in the works to redo the trade interface to support this type of functionality.  It will hopefully be released sometime in the near future, whenever the crew can get it all worked out.

I would love having that that type of option, but please make it exactly that, an option.

If somebody wants their inventory to be private, so be it, but in a lot of cases people don't care and it will end up being a big hinderance.  For instance, if I want to help somebody with their deck, I would need to get their inventory password just to go look at what cards they have to better improve it.  Or if I want to tell somebody to look through my inventory if they didn't see anything they liked in my tradelist.

Things like that would make it a big nuisance to deal with if it wasn't an option.

Another possibility would be to make access friend based, so that only people that you see as friends could see your inventory.  That would kind of give the best of both worlds.  You wouldn't have to continually ask for/enter passwords to do a lot of the standard actions, you'd just need to make sure that you're friends with the people that you're trying to interact with.

I'm pretty sure that all of the data is just scraped from Gatherer.  There's nothing that can be done unless you want to petition Wizards to update with all editions of the cards, which probably won't happen at this time.

I'm still hoping that, at some point in time, Deckbox will get updated to pull information from http://magiccards.info instead/in addition to Gatherer, but I've received conflicting reports on the possibility of that happening, and there is definitely no timeline for that to occur.

How much for just the contents (with shipping)?
