Default The Art of the Trade

I've recently completed my 4th successful trade with Net54 members. Before June, I hadn't done a trade for cards since I was a kid. I had a member contact me about a trade for one of my listings on BST back in June and it couldn't have been easier. I'm a convert. I've included the words "I'm also open to a trade" on several BST posts and had 3 more trades.

I'm sure it helps that I was dealing with great people who have been members for a long time.

I thought it would be interesting to know how frequent trades (e.g. not sales) are done between members.

Have you done a trade on Net54? Any lessons learned? Any advice? Any questions?

Because every thread needs a card...here's one that I was part of one of my trades.

I trade frequently.

One of my favorite aspects of working card shows is trading across my table.

I'm always looking to trade with folks, and never had a problem with anybody on N54. I would like to see more posts for traders, and maybe even a new section devoted to it. I'm one of the guys that traded with Gary and can say it was a very pleasant experience.

Take Care,
Geno

Great topic! I too have traded with Gary, a fun and rewarding experience.
The key is locating folks who don't approach the trade like it's an opportunity
to mug you Good news is many net54 members are savvy people who
realize that, in order to get something good, you must give up something
good in return. Lots of wonderful experiences on this venue. Trent King

I'm approaching two years on this site and haven't yet completed a trade! I'm glad to hear it happens

Thanks for posting. I love trades, it's the best feeling to help another member with their collection while helping yours at the same time. I've set up trades between members, fun trades with Mac Wubben, blockbuster trade with Leon, and a pending trade with Ryan to name a few. The best trade though is sending a card to a member at no cost in exchange for the feeling you get from being a generous human.

Trades aren't easy, and the best trades are painful for both sides.
