This goes as well for Sellers of cards. I've posted to purchase cards, and emailed them. and never heard a word from em. WHY post a sales list if you never hear back from them on wanting to purchase something? sHEESH. I litterally had to go to Ebay for some of my cards I want. ansd it sucks,.

Even worse are the people with 0 refs stating "You will send first, no exceptions." As I'm hitting the back button I just think "No I won't, because we won't be trading." I remember a while ago a seller with 0-3 references had a rule stating that not only did you have to pay first (no exceptions!), you also had to pay via PayPal gift (no exceptions!). And then he went on to state that this way everybody was protected!

For the record, personal payment are 100% non-claimable.

For "payment for goods and services", you can try to claim a refund, but paypal will only refund you what is in the seller's account. So if his account has $0.02 and you are claiming for $1000, you are out of pocket by $999.98.

And he just did it again on his buy list. He just knocked a penny off his buy prices for uncommons and rares. What a piece of scum.

True, but it is a scummy move to post a buy price and then change your price without responding to those who posted.

Thats all I see with points list. What get me is the list is already in there favor but they stil won't trade down. I think Slinga was the only person I have seen who would do a trade if the points matched up.

Also I think I am going to scream if I see another list with decked cards. Ran across this one today and tried to complete a trade but got shot down because he over values his Thrun.

STUFF THAT IS DECKED SECTION:

This is my section of good stuff that is decked. For me to trade the legacy stuff, you should be offering stuff like Dual Lands, Moat, and my other out of print wants. I won't trade this stuff down, unless it's wayyyy in my favor. Some of it isn't really expensive but trading out of decks is a pain since I have to replace it.

As for Point based lists I love and hate them, I like the idea of them, cause lets face it I'm REALLY tired of my 15 uncommons for your dual offers when said uncommons are NOT FoW level cards.

but on the flipside, most Point Based lists suck, and I have yet to find a good way to make one myself, despite a few attempts.

not gonna lie, i thought about posting a list, and it would be points based.. and in my favor.. but if the points tally up, trading down isnt an issue.. but I dont really have a lot of wants i cant already get, or otherwise have a bunch of copies of already.. so.. shrug.. might give it a test and see where it goes

FWIW hooskdaddy has a list with points, and was perfectly happy to trade his Savannahs down to me. Didn't matter what for, so long as the points added up.

I sent him a my 3 snapcaster for 1 wasteland offer. It wasn't good enough for him and he sent me back a counter-offer as if I was serious. Oh, well...I wasn't being serious, but his reply was awesome.

Whenever I see a "decked" section, I don't even bother with any of the other cards on that user's list. Because that way I know where his only good cards are. It's a nice shortcut

I posted it in the last "post for mtg discussion thread #64".

Essentially, he said that:
"This is a strange time in legacy. I can see delver and him getting the axe in Legacy soon. Anyways, I only play SCM in my casual deck. So I'll have to think about it."

A week later, he posted that instead of 3 SCM, he wants 2 SCM and 1 Liliana otV just in case SCM gets banned in Legacy and Modern.

Anyways, here's matt42's pathetic list and pts system: http://classic.magictraders.com/ubb/Forum2/HTML/240980.html
