Default Card trading - lost art?

Posted By: warshawlaw

and I usually offer trades in my buy-sell post--but no one has the damned cards I want (jus' keedin').

Seriously, I bring a big stack of trade bait to most every show I attend.

My online tading experience has been good, and I second the things that the others have been saying about safety: know your partner. It's kinda like Sam Kinison's great take on sex and VD: if you don't trust the ****y, don't f*** the ****y. Same idea for trading: I only trade through the mail with people I know and trust. If Joe Blow Lurker offers me a trade, I am unlikely to do it unless he sends the cards first. Someone well known and well respected, and I go ahead.
