I get it, you're mad at me for not posting often enough. Well I've been busy, OKAY? I've been working on "Milo: The Gathering" and it has been a lot of work lately. Now get off my back.
Let's return to the trades at hand, shall we?
Trade 14 -
My Inferno Titan ($4.99) it was slightly damaged and was valued at $3.99 when I traded it.
for his:
M11 Prerelease Sun Titan ($4.99) this was also valued at $3.99 when we made the trade.
Total = EVEN STEVEN!
Even if I was behind on this trade, I would be okay with it. I generally feel like the Sun Titan Prerelease card is easier to trade than a normal Sun Titan. Foils draw people in, especially foiled mythics. :D Plus, now that they revealed the new Planeswalker is Sorin and he costs 2WB, I could see Liliana of the Veil seeing play in that deck...and what better way to recur her than with a Sun Titan? All three of those cards are REAL cards, so what's preventing it from being a real deck?
Trade 15 -
My Sol Ring (Commander) and Invigorate ($6.98)
for his:
Sangromancer, Lord of Extinction, Mimic Vat and Etched Champion ($10.96)
Total = +$3.98
This is the most profit that I've made on a trade since the beginning of this entire ordeal (not including the generous donations that I've received, of course). However, Sol Ring is a very tradeable card. Even with "Donations to Something" I would be willing to take a loss when trading for a Sol Ring - it's pretty much a piece of power that got reprinted and is only allowed to be played in casual formats. $5.00 is what SCG has it listed for, but I don't think it's going to stay there forever. I'm absolutely looking for more Sol Ring's in the future.
Trade 16 -
My Champion of the Parish (foreign), Mayor of Avabruk and Portal 3 Kingdoms Plains x2. ($9.96)
for his:
Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker from the Duel Decks Ajani vs Nicol Bolas. ($9.99)
Total = +$.03
I believe that this is currently the most expensive card in my binder...and that's including any trades that I have coming in. It's my big poppa rare. I'm not dying to trade him down. I'd really like to run into someone looking for Nicol Bolas and then trade him at the $20.00 price range that the actual Nicol Bolas sits at. Hopefully, the person I'm trading with just won't care. I mean this one is FOILED! Why is it worth less?
If I leverage this in a bigger trade for something really neat like an Onslaught Fetchland - then we're getting somewhere.
Trade 17 -
My Bloodlord of Vasgoth, Ob Nixilis, the Fallen and Magister Sphinx ($4.73)
for his:
Gavony Township x2, Bloodgift Demon ($5.47)
Total = +0.74
This wasn't a big deal either. I gained a very small profit as well as obtaining some more cards to trade to Standard players at the next prerelease.
I just sent three more Donations to Something trades, so my binder is looking a little sparse for the upcoming Pre-Release. Hopefully, I will be able to make some cards move, even if I don't make any huge deals - just being able to rotate-out binder stock would be a great thing. Then, at least I would have something else to show the people on Youtube and then I could generate more trades with them - WHICH MEAN MORE EXTRA'S!!! :D
So that's it for now. I'll update sometime next week with the trades from the Prerelease. Until then, you can watch the brilliance that is "MILO: THE GATHERING"!!! SUBSCRIBE TO ME ON YOUUUUTUBEEEZZZZ
