Here's the thing, after I joined their group they invited me to come play and trade with them. So I asked them what guide they generally go by in trade valuation... (thinking SCG or TCG low/mid/whatever, ebay completed's or w/e) They all use some weird crap I'd never even heard of and they told me that they value bulk rares at $1.00 each They even went so far as to say, quote, "But you can sell them for a dollar each if you want to"

Me = flabbergasted!

I am asking to you dear folks from the MOTL community....

What on Earth should I tell these guys!? I mean, where do you even start!? This situation would be a boon to the unscrupulous but I am not gonna fleece the people I wanna play with ya know! Besides that just damn bad Karma!

Thoughts?

Get every junk rare you have and let the trading/selling commence.

Will like, somebody see that I want some stuff and upload them on the fly? Or is it just a bunch of people that want high end stuff hoping to get it?

I often receive lists of cards from friends and they ask me to obtain them. If this site works, it'd be a sick way to actually just trade for things as needed. However, the inventory of available cards is lacking. Looking for some insight from a member who might be using it already as to how well it works.

There is no necessity to know what people have on puca. You post your wants and haves. Trade match to find people that 1. Have the points and 2. Want the cards. Send the cards and they give points upon receipt. Then when you have enough points for the cards you want someone may/will send it.

I have had no issues on there and have been moving bulk Rares and semi playable un/Commons. Built blue tron on puca only. Cost me bulk and the postage to send.

You can always just buy the points and list your wants. I am sure many on there do that.

My main complaint bout pucatrade is that I get alot of traders that just disappear, and/or don't confirm when they receive what I've sent to em. You have to open up a pucatrade case, blah blah.

Admin's are kinda slow as well.

And every card is over priced. Want a revised Underground Sea? That'll be 32349 puca points, which is really $323.49 in cash. I had not a clue Revised Seas were $300+ now...

It seems like any nonfoil c/u/r/m want lists for cards $0.15 to $10 get filled pretty quick there, as long as you have the points available in your account to 'pay' for them. So much so, that it makes it hard for me to trade away things like that as others beat me to it. Premium members that have their full collection listed, and are constantly on the site, have the best chance to trade away their bulk and build up points.

---

That is not entirely true. 90% of my collection is like .10 to $10 cards. and guess what? They still be sitting.

How do get the points you ask? Send a big $$$ card, for example, and Underground Sea, Gaea's Cradle or the like. One card gets ya a buttload of points, then you can get the best chance at getting the cards you want.

I guess my one concern is that there wouldn't be what I wanted on site once I acquired the points, but based on your guys' posts it sounds like I won't have a problem.

Very few. Fetches and shocks in standard at the same time? Somehow I don't think so. Earliest possible would be the fall set.

No, I'd be very surprised if there are fetches in M15. I would speculate that we get the ZEN fetches in the next Modern Masters (probably next year), and the ONS ones in M16. This would 1) allow for shocks to fully be out of Standard, 2) gives only the friendly color fetches to Standard, as all 10 would be too good, while 3) still providing some badly needed price relief for Modern.

If I'm not mistaken wizards said pre there's that all land cycles will be either none or 10 from now on

Not sure where they said that but 10 fetches in one set would be insanity. Wizards wants to sell packs and they very well know that you always spread the chase rares out across as many sets as possible. 5 fetches in a single set would be the maximum imo.
