I have a general comment, pertaining to trading. I see these posts about
3 or
4 times a week about people who want to trade for cards. That in itself
is a
good thing. But as of recently i have been e-mailing these people who
are
looking to trade cards and they don't repley back to the e-mails. My
basic
quam here is, why even waste space with postings about cards for trade?
4
times in the past week or so i have contacted people privatley(like
you're
supposed to do) and they have (Deleted my mail). The Subject line was
quite
clear "E-mailing about shadowrun cards for trade/sale". I just wanted
to
make this known, if you aren't serious about trading then don't post. I
defintley would like to say i have had two good expireances trading. I
just
find it irratating that when you see a card that you want/need, people
end up
blowing you off. Well that's all i have to say, i just wanted my voice
to be
known.

Good points, Ryan. I might also add that any offer is worth a reply,
weither you accept the deal *or not*. When you make a deal and the other
trader proposes a counter deal, you expect him/her to *at least* reply
you a positive/negative answer.

Most of the traders will keep cards on hold till the other reply him an
answer. Some of those cards *might interest you*, but are on hold for
one/two weeks because someone didn't reply a "sorry, not interested".
Does that sound familiar to some of you ?? It does to me, and I missed
more than one deal because of that.

<Sigh>. Well, that felt good. See ya.
