Hey guys! I'm on sort of a hiatus with MTG right now, so I'd love for my fancy planeswalkers to go to people who are trying to bling out their decks, I'll try to give a great deal within reason, but I'd like to at the end of the day still have planeswalkers! I'm not looking for flippers only: Arlinn Kord, Sorin, Gideon, Jace, Chandra, Ob Nix, Nahiri

I have: https://imgur.com/a/hO6zk
1x Prerelease Arlinn Kord
1x Prerelease Sorin, Grim Nemesis (slight stamp misprint?)
2x Pack foil Sorin, Grim Nemesis
4x Pack foil Gideon, Ally of Zendikar
1x Prerelease Ob Nixilis, Reignited
1x Pack foil Ob Nixilis, Reignited
1x Pack foil Jace, Unraveler of Secrets
3x Pack foil Chandra, Flamecaller

I also have a stupid prerelease Avacyn I'm trying to pitch, among plenty of other crazy beautiful standard foils that I just want to keep from the New Mexico heat. TBVH I just want the non-foil counterparts of these cards (except avacyn because.. Ugh, don't need it!)

I'm not looking for flippers only: Arlinn Kord, Sorin, Gideon, Jace, Chandra, Ob Nix, Nahiri, Liliana and Tamiyo. If it's a good deal I have no problem giving a decent % of value up on my end to get my hands on non-foils.

Thanks! Sorry we couldn't work things out, and I will update the post to avoid the confusion.

Looking to to get a TWO(!) non-foil (preferred) Archangel Avacyn for decks. I know it is a tough thing to acquire at the moment, but I have Kolaghans Commands, Collected Companys, Atarkas Commands and more for trade!


A lower priority thing, I am trying to get my hands on more unhinged lands to complete 10 of sets. If anyone sees something they may want or wants to get rid of them, let me know!

I think you are being too paranoid. If you look at his trading history all his trades have taken a decent amount of time, he has sent first in all instances I looked at and he has done trades with uses with a lot/great reputations. No need to witch hunt just because he is a user with low feedback.

Eh, I wouldn't call it paranoia but being smart, in this particular instance being sour. But I still wouldn't send simultaneously with a new user. Regardless of having one or two"great trades". Also, pointing at an eBay account? Anyone can simply make an account with the same account name from any other service, so tbvh that doesn't sit well either. Regardless, valdor, if you would like to argue and debate silly things like this you can feel free to PM me rather then doing it here. But, that said;

On one hand you yourself, have (in your own words) never been harmed by a scam or anything that brought up arguments so you most likely don't understand that there is quite possibly risk in someone saying, "Trust me, look at my Pucatrade/eBay/etc", that doesn't get a vote of confidence, something I simply pointed out. I don't think (personally) it would be in my best interest to simultaneously trade with someone with low rep (also because the travel times of cards should roughly be 3-5 days both ways, 3 weeks is quite the over exaggeration!). A simple point that, if one person such as myself thinks that way, there will be other people that also think that also think that way. As someone with multiple Arlinns, it will just make me avoid trading.

EDIT: Oh boy, forgot to address the addition of calling this a witch hunt. No - I just pointed out that the demands will drive off traders especially due to recent circumstances. Nothing more and nothing less.

I find it really hard to believe that filing mail fraud is the only way to go about this when we have a record of people's things that have been stolen and the perps address... Has anyone ever tried working with a local PD?

The only thing you can do is file a fraud report with the local police department. I doubt it will help you regain cards or money in whatever transaction, but at least it is a step in the right direction to have the individual get justice. It is a sticky situation. I really try to only trade in the North East because if someone is going to screw me over I will drive to their house and confront them because, honestly I am not that shy of an individual and I'll look for any excuse to take a road trip with the motorcycle. smile

In the past, Sebi has declined users who offered to help for free as moderators, and is one of the reasons that there is a current Premium option.

Which in my opinion is absolutely useless. Yes, your problem will be addressed first but that still does nothing when you have already been scammed and there is no way to let others really know unless they make a post, which most might not read. So it is not solving any issues.

Also the scammer is targeting new member, who most likely have not gotten Premium since they are just testing the site out and giving it a trial run. So there is nothing in place to protect them.

I have never been affected by a scammer, but if a site does nothing to help protect new users, even turning down free help, well it is a site that I might not want to be a part of.

Perhaps there needs to be some sort of "flag" system if there is an open report about a user that appears next to their name similar to the green checkmark of premium users. Like a small "Red Flag" if there is a recent report or complaint in regards to said scammer to help draw attention? Mod team can then investigate the flags.

Very true, sort of a bummer that to get additional protection you need to pay. But the model makes sense in the long run I suppose.

I'm glad other people are as concerned as I am. I just sent my message through the help/contact/ support and feedback route naming the user I thought was suspicious and he was flagged by the end of the day, but obviously it's not working. I did message him again bringing up that this specific user has now used multiple accounts to steal hundreds of dollars worth of cards from people through his site, and that he needs to address this issue ASAP so hopefully changed are coming.

That alone infuriates me. I try to trade before buying and one of my first trades I lost a baby Jace before discovering Deckbox, I can only sympathize for those losing exorbitant amounts of cards. sad

While I totally get the sentiment, on the flipside, Sebi might not be able to do what he wants/needs until he acquires more revenue. That is why I said I would act as a mod in some compacity for free, just to help. I am online everyday for my job anyways might as well do something else when I am slow.

Yea, I hear that completely. I'd be willing as well but my low trade count? I don't even know what would be acceptable. I just do a typical BS IT cubicle job and deckbox all day long, haha. Regardless of whatever happens, I think first thing is there has to be simple admin verification for new accounts going forward, something stupidly simple to start off with haha.

Is it only Sebi modding the site?/it seems like there needs to be more people watching for this and an easy report user button. Hell, I am on Deckbox almost everyday. I would be willing to act as a mod for people to report these issue to and investigate. I would do it for free.

Is there a way that accounts can be frozen if someone is under investigation. There should be.

Edit: unless I missed it, there is no way to report an account if if is suspicious. I love this site and do not want the reputation tarnished buy a single insistent scammer.

I completely agree with this. I love this website and recommend it to everyone who approaches me for trades because it allows me to get the cards I want rather then getting tons of junk from some kid at the LGS. If it is only Sebi doing things, maybe more help is required.

But finding the help will be another task.

Jesus, this scares the crap out of me and makes me not want to trade with anyone. sad

I already have a limited trade list because I'm new to the game and feel embarrassed when trying to trade up with higher users who simply seem to ignore my offers... Bleh.
