Trading with Dealers at Card Shows?

I get the fascination with the concept of trading. It’s largely a fantasy in the hobby. People trade so they can say they made a trade because it makes them feel good. And that’s fine. Dealers trade to make money.

Every single thing I’ve listed in BST the last few years one or more people have contacted me asking to trade. And I say sure make me an offer. And most of the time the offer is absurd. Just the reality of it.

You're a dealer, I'm a collector, my comment is for collectors. A good trade with another collector usually involves cards that neither one wants to give up but desires the opposite card more, thus the pain. Nothing better than a good collector trade.

Haha, yes! When you are the guy with the tennis racket and the dealer is the drapes.
