Topic: Various foiled cards: Batterskull, Gush, Crop Rotation; others

I was going to sell a few cards to my local game shop, as I'm not using them, and I'd prefer to get some other cards that would be beneficial for my decks.  I'd rather trade here, as: a) I'd like to see someone else who may be looking for one of these get it; and b) the store would pay like 50% of the card's value, even with the trade-in-for-store-credit bonus, and that kinda blows.  So, anyone want any of these?

Since Deckbox doesn't handle prices for non-latest editions or foils very well, I'm also providing links to other pricelists.  For the tcgplayer site, scroll to the bottom of the list of stores' prices for foils.  The MOTL prices' data are from ebay sales, but dates of sales, conditions, etc. aren't given, and sometimes the statistics are based on small sample sizes.

Assuming they are both NM, I'd be willing to offer 25 in trade value for the batterskull and crop rotation.

Re: Various foiled cards: Batterskull, Gush, Crop Rotation; others

Hey, I appreciate the interest, but 25 is kind of a low-ball offer that is close to what my LGS would offer for these two cards (about $22) without having to deal with packaging, shipping, and the inherent risk of non-face-to-face deals (which, for you, is practically zero given your trade history).  Both cards are in NM condition, and Star City Games lists the values for the Batterskull and Crop Rotation at $30 and $8 respectively.  However, as per the list of store selling foil Batterskulls on tcgplayer, one of those can be obtained for less than $30 — as low as $22 as of writing this.  I'd be more than happy to trade with you, but I'd need to look through your tradelist for something I may need and make you an offer.

No problem, look through my binder and send an offer, then we can negotiate from there.

Re: Various foiled cards: Batterskull, Gush, Crop Rotation; others

Yo, sent you an offer.  Again, using Star City Games' prices as a common reference (and assuming your cards aren't also foils), Maelstrom Pulse x2 at $13x2 = $26, Woodland Cemetery at $8 ($34 thus far), Parallel Lives at $2.50 ($36.50), and Megrim x2 at $0.50 x 2, bringing the total to $37.50 or $38.50 if your megrims are 10th ed.  Also, I'd be glad to post pictures of my cards if you'd like.  I just took a bunch, but actually fairly difficult to take a picture of a foil because you can't use the flash, which I guess I should've realized. =P  I'll try again when the sun's out tomorrow, aka not night time.
