The glue must be potent over there, since he expects payment first.

Alright, not all combos. But good enough. Synod artifcer can be used in there as an untapper if make him an artifact with Mycosynth Lattice and hit with Voltaic Construct... Convoluted comos are good too.
Gifts, Bargain, Metalworker, Tinker, Academy, and Painter's Servant are banned in Commander. ffffffffeverythingicareabout

Best spells for infinite mana? Exsanguinate, Blue Sun's Zenith, Braingeyser, Stroke of Genius.

I mean. The cards are playable and all. But for example something like this:

quote:

---

4 Blood Moon (4.50)
2 Past in Flames ($4.00)
1 Proclamation of Rebirth ($1.00)
2 Cloudstone Curio ($1.50)
1 Fulminator Mage ($2.00)
Total: $32

Your
1 Chrome Mox (Mirrodin) ($10.50)
1 Arid Mesa ($8.00)
1 Scalding Tarn ($10.50)
1 Doran, the Siege Tower ($2.50)
Total: $31.50

When I say, That looks terrible for me. Is that insulting?

Also had someone basically bitch out / ignore trades ever from me because I basically refused trading down $15 cards for $5 (or less) cards (with no premium).

The guy thinks he insulted me and compared me to Dan Bock.. (uh.. thanks?).

I'm all for doing even trades. But it really infuriates me when people think I'm the ******* when I say no to someone giving me a bunch of $1-5 cards for $15.

---

Yeah, you're right. I should learn to work on my people skills besides saying "lol no" and "sounds terrible".

Ugh, Help me out folks. I just got delivered some cards and the big money cards ($5-20) were nowhere close to NM status. I'm talking significant whitening on each to at least be downgraded to EX+ to EX-. Not poor, but not NM either.

I purchased a played card from a member here after it appeared fine in scans. When the card showed up, there was a bend/crease on one side, running halfway into the card, which did not show up in the scans (probably due to lighting). Is it my fault for assuming the card would not have bends/creases or should I ask for compensation for it?

Try having those same 1-5$ cards offered for 30-50$ cards....or worse yet, guy offers nothing over 20, and TONS of 0.50-4$ cards and wants multiple 30$+ Cards...

Never even offering a premium, always even values using some site as a guide...

Guess everyone is hoping to find someone dumb enough to do it *shrugs*...

Well part of it might be people used to dealing w/ stores a bunch too. If you offer $30 buylist of stuff you get $30 of stuff for sale back. Doesn't matter what you trade in or trade... value for value. People get used to that and expect it to translate when the prices aren't adjusted for such a thing. I've had a ton of bad offers on my sales lists when I run them and I just ignore or let them know I'll pass on their offer.

I was supposed to put up another sales list days ago and I've been super busy or not feeling like putting a list up from scratch. It takes me a couple hours and its hard to look at excel/MOTL/Ebay for that long of a period sometimes.

Problem with this is, it's not 30 for 30, its more like 60 for 30....45 for 30 at best.

As store do not buy or trade at full value, so by that Logic, they should be used to trade up and down, as that is basically what stores do to make profit.

Just in the case of trading on here, its more a justification for trading a large liquid card for smaller cards that are less liquid.
