USA card trading by mail

[zaeil]

EDITED 8/29: Got more cards today, almost all duplicates. Won't be buying more until the next wave! But here's an updated list of tradables and wants:

TRADES
Red: 009 (x2), 014, 015, 017, 108 (x2), 019 (x2), 025, 027
Orange: 041, 042, 045 (x2), 046 (x2), 050, 051, 059
Yellow: 074 (x2), 078, 079 (x2), 082, 088, 091
Green: 105, 107 (x2), 110 (x2), 117, 123
Blue: 137
Purple: 170

WANT:
Red: None
Orange: None
Yellow: None
Green: None
Blue: 149 (Complex Basic)
Purple: 176 (The Lake), 184 (Love Letters)
Black: 210 (New Notation), 215 (Harmony), 217 (Tower of Cubes)
Silver: 240 (Elucidate), 243 (Shuffled), 251 (13th Labor)

Anyway, I'm over in North Carolina, so if there's anyone out this way that would like to trade in person, that'd be cool. Otherwise, I'm willing to ship across the US. And maybe to Canada if it doesn't cost too much.

I got my first batch of Perplex City cards yesterday, courtesy of Rose (thanks, Rose, the money's in the mail!) - two packs, plus some duplicates Rose had lying around.

Here's what I have so far:

Red 013 - Sphinx
Red 018 - Natal Name
Red 027 - Bar None (2x)
Orange 042 - Pirates vs Ninjas
Orange 051 - Jigsaw (2x)
Orange 054 - 9 Ball
Yellow 074 - Wordspy
Yellow 082 - Sharp Red
Yellow 091 - Twisty Little Passages
Green 105 - Arrange My Lace Bits
Green 127 - Illogical
Blue 137 - Sub Rosa
Purple 170 - Vexillogy
Silver 240 - Elucidate

I'm also working with Snowball to get some of her spares (which I'll be wiring payment for as soon as they arrive) and a contact in the comics/collectible cards business to attempt to get a case of cards - although precisely what he means by 'case' I'm not sure; does he mean 'case' as in 'box of card packs' or 'case' as in 'box of boxes of card packs'? (If it's the latter, I am going to be over-freaking-whelmed with cards! )

OK, here's my list of cards I have, and duplicates for trade. Updated on 16 August 05.

[Dorkmaster]

I've got a couple of cards that people were looking for as duplicates.

Here's what I've got. I'm more interested in blue, purple, black or silver, obviously, so PM me if you'd like to make a trade. I'd be more than willing to trade 2 cards for one of higher value or something.

I've got extras of 6 cards : (3 now)

#103 - Sphinx (Red Circles)
#042 - Pirates Vs. Ninjas (Orange Hex)
#054 - 9 Ball (Orange Maze)
#138 - Geek Antiques (Blue Hex)
#107 - Blockword (Green Hex)
#078 - Edible Love (Yellow Circles)

Again, PM me if you're interested in trading. I'd be willing to guarantee safe delivery in the states.

I received my first FireBox order last Thursday (only 5 days, from London!), and out of 8 packs, 3 of those packs were complete duplicates, with a couple more single duplicates. Out of 48 cards, I received 21 ( 12 7 after trading) extras... That's almost *half*!

If anyone needs any of these cards (US only, for now anyway), let me know what extras you have, and maybe we can work out a fair trade. I read a good suggestion on this site, and think this is the fairest way to go... trade point-for-point, not just color-for-color, or at least *try* and trade equal points. For example, I'll trade as many of my cards as it takes, to add up to one of your higher-point cards, and vice versa. All cards are *unscratched*, of course. PM or email me with any offers. Thanks!

1 - #014 - red circle - Cracked Crackers - 4 pts

[Atrophied]

Just to clarify.. when you say "Trading in the US" do you extend that above the 49th parallel to us humble folks in Canadiana?

[zaeil]

Can't speak for anyone else, but I'd be willing to send to Canada...it certainly can't be THAT much more in postage!

[Hunting4Treasure]

I would consider trading with Canada. Please give an example postal code, and I'll check out the postage. Thanks!

[walther]

Also in the Tampa Bay area and have a bunch of cards available for trading (even across the border ).
