This is available only for sellers right now but will add it to the premium account too.

Maybe I am just missing it, but I have a sellers account and I can only see a way to add in older product. My list that I can see only shows up to Kaladesh, it doesn’t have any of the newer stuff for me to add qty too.

If you sent it priority with tracking, it should have came with insurance. If so, you can file a claim with the post office to get some money back.

(How the hell do I initiate a new trade now in the site????)

On the left hand side menu you select trading opportunites and then pick a user name that shows up that has some cards you would like. Once you do, click there name and it will open their page. Then on the left hand menu again, you will see an option that says new trade with "username" Click that button and it will ask you about doing a mail or in person trade and have you confirm you accept the rules and then it will open the lists where you can chat with them and put cards on both sides to propose a trade.

From my point of view, it's not dead at all. I get plenty of trades and sales. I took a look at your profile, you might have a better time getting trades if you upload more cards for trade. Right now I can only see 6 cards on your tradelist. Try uploading more cards or setting more cards available for trade and see if that helps.

400+ haves. You saw someone elses list or something.
Hell, there is not any real activity on the boards. Is this site just for sharks and/or stores?

Yea, I must have been looking at the main page of your wishlist. It shows I only have 6 cards you need. I now see the 400+ you have on your trade list, it looks like your wishlist only has 20 cards on it though. My mistake. But yea, what the other guy said is true. The more cards you list that you have and that you need, the better chance you have of getting trades. I have i think 6 you are looking for but it doesn't show you up as a recommended trade for me cus there is nothing on your tradelist that I need on my wishlist.

I have some revised duals for sale if anyone is interested. I can post pictures if wanted and we can discuss pricing.

Yea, I am getting this error as well. There must be a glitch on the site somewhere. I can view my trades and orders but I can't see any individual cards or my decks.

I am all for adding in this feature. Someone on a previous thread stated something like this: sales shouldn’t be done like an actual storefront shop.  I should be able to trade you my cards for your cards or “trade” you my money for them.

I don’t think Deckbox is for business’ to use as another platform to sell like with TCG, EBay ect. Deckbox is used for individuals to help manage their personal collections, to get cards they want/need and to offload the ones they don’t. Sales should be done like trades not like a business. I agree with what Meldon said:

UI will be key, yes, but I don't think the concept itself is confusing. "Here's my 5 cards worth $100 based on xyz pricing, plus a $20 bill, for your 6 cards worth $120 based on that same pricing." Makes complete sense to me. Just need a very clear UI.

I trade you my 5 cards and $20 for your 6 cards.

I mainly use deckbox as an inventory management site. I like to know that when someone is looking for something wether I for sure have it or not. When I sit down at a table to trade with someone, we both pick a pricing site (usually TCG but as long as you use the same site for both sides it usually doesn’t matter) and then go from there to make a deal. Deckbox should be used the same way. It’s the “table” we can both sit at to make a deal. It also functions as the venue like a local game store, GP, competitive event, ect where you can meet multiple people to interact with to find what you want/need. If I want to just buy a card for its market price I will go to a retail store (tcg, card kingdom, coolstuff, LGS, ect) and buy it straight up. I come to deckbox to work with individuals on a personal level to make deals that we’re both happy with, not to just buy from a store. A store is only gonna be in it for the profit, people will have different motivations. I know if I really need a card I’m ok with losing a few dollars in a trade to get it. Sometimes if I like the attitude of the person I’m trading with, I am much more inclined to give them a better deal then if they are being rude or being a stickler for the cents of a card in a trade. If I try to trade a card in to an LGS I’m lucky to get 50% of it’s value. When I trade an individual I usually get almost full value for it. I don’t want to have to sell 2 $100 cards to a store to buy 1 $100 card I need. I’m all for adding in a feature to trades where you can trade cash as part of the deal if you need to even out a trade or if one person doesn’t have anything the other wants. Deckbox should of course still get their cut for providing the venue/“table” for our transaction and that feature could be included into the transaction.

@Islanzadi38 — The default condition for a list of cards is whatever you set the default to when entering them. The default doesn't have to be NM. I'd recommend setting your default to LP or even Played (MP on other sites). If you undershoot condition, you're less likely to have an issue with buyers. And you can still have a statement in your profile explaining this system, so people know cards will often be a better condition than listed.

The problem with this is that I will get less sales and make less money. First: A lot of people, myself included, only want to buy cards that are NM unless there are no other options and I really need the card. My first filter when looking for something to buy is to filter to English only and NM only. A lot of people I know do the same thing. Second: If I default everything to LP/MP then the sales I do make, people will expect to pay less because the card is listed in a lower condition. On high value cards that could be a lot of money lost, but even the few cents on junk commons/uncommons eventually adds up when you sell thousands of them. The whole point of having a deckbox account to sell is to make money. I would much rather a feature be put on the site that lets me verify orders then to have to take the loss in money (even if it’s a small amount).

Totally agree!! My biggest issue is with card conditions. I sometimes load in lots of 10k plus cards at a time and there is no way I would have enough time to meticulously grade every card. The default is NM and that's how I load everything unless I see an obvious issue on something. I would love to have a feature where I can have an opportunity to check my stock for quantity and condition before the order automatically goes through so I can make sure I verify I have what my customer is actually trying to buy. The best I've been able to do is to put in my description that if you are ordering to put it up for discussion first if you care about condition and that everything gets loaded as NM by default.
