Running out of traders
Well, this forum has been good for the last 4-6 months, but I find that I am just running out of people to trade with. I don't have what they want or they don't have what I want. So with that said, everything I have is for sale. If I don't get any offers from people it will all go to the bay. I am getting rid of almost everything and will only be collecting a few things in the future.
PM me with offers. I can give you scans if needed.

RE: Running out of traders
Yeah it is the fees and it happen before when they tried to charge for trades years ago. The trading got better when they lifted the charges back then.
It will change back when Beckett realizes that charging for the ORG is basically charging for the trades all over again. Especially since your cards must be in you org to trade them. We all lost alot of options when the fees started and people dumped their organize or just left the site all together.

RE: Running out of traders
I don't agree it's the fees. if it is, that is just stupid. It's $20/year. Thats $1.67/month. Should that REALLY stop anybody from trading?? When people are spending $80 per month on cell phones and $100/month on cable TV and Listing fees alone on ebay will be more than that if you try to sell 5 cards/month. I think those that blame the fees haven't really sat down and thought about the fact that it really isn't that big a deal. We are talking about guys who are dropping $400/box on National treasures and exquisite. Right?

RE: Running out of traders
Alot of people did leave because of the fees. Not because it's $20 more based on the principle of it. The timing was absolutely horrible. I do agree though that if you sit down and think about it, no other site has as good of system as Beckett, that's the main reason I stayed. I love the ability to have your entire collection listed. That can be used for more reasons then just trading or selling
So everyone please come back
