 		Swap Shop
I haven't seen a dedicated thread about this now that the cards are on sale, so I'll bring up the subject of card swapping. I've got my first batch of 72 cards of which I've got around twenty-five duplicates already.

So I'll ask people on here what their suggestions are for setting up a swap thread, or a site on the wiki. Now, obviously most people will have a higher amount of lower number cards that aren't going to shift so easily, so it might also be a good idea to sell them (or give away if you're generous) to the people who don't plan to buy as many or any packs.

Say, going by British currency, 10p for a red card up to £1 silver, though that's just a ballpark figure; I don't know if demand is high enough and what the odds of getting a high number card are to merit it costing that amount. What I'd suggest, however, is that prices for all cards and postage are fixed beforehand so as not to cause arguments or fleecing.

But what do I know about trading card economics? If it doesn't work, we can all go off to eBay. Smile

 		Cards are only worth what you'll pay for them.

So the prices would be determined in due course.

I suppose. Has anybody made the jump to purchasing a solo card off someone? I guess we'll have to see what Perplex Points are worth before we can see what the cards are really worth.[/i]
