Would you use a separate trading area?

I think it's a good idea. While I have not had any trades I think adding another option won't hurt.

I also like the idea,..even if its as simple as a place where guys scan in cards that they'd like to trade.....I think before long there would be hundreds of cards posted...and it could stir up a lot of action

Think about how hard it is to find what you are looking for on Net54. Then think about this -- when it finally becomes available, all you have to pay for it is something else. The odds of there being a fit there is probably pretty remote.

Trading works best when you have two collectors sitting across the table from each other looking at each other's collections. Not, when you post one thing available, and seek a specific thing in return.

Just my two cents.

Has there ever been any trading at the Net54 dinner? I've only been to the last two.

Not that I am aware of. I would help facilitate it if the idea grew legs. For me, I am into heavy drinking that night so don't think trading is in me....but if others wanted to, more power to them. I could definitely get one round table reserved for card trading....but generally I think the show is where that could take place.

And it doesn't look like this idea will have overwhelming support for it. With 12 precincts reporting it looks as though things will probably stay as they are.

Ah Leon don't be so sure. Tell you what, you bring those E221s with you and I'll bring a bottle of your favorite distilled/fermented beverage and/or a case of amber-colored friends. I'm certain that after a couple of hours we will have worked out something to our mutual satisfaction.

Hey Todd
These are ugly cards. More of what I collect that is rare with not too much demand. But I do like them, and this purple one is uniquely known, according to Macrae, so it's truly rare. I would have to be quite inebriated to let them go.

Back to subject. I am looking at adding a T206 BST section. I personally don't think it's needed but I am seriously considering it today. The trade only area is already covered in the other areas, respectively.

And Johnny, a scraps area......not sure there is enough supply to make it warranted. How about a double name T206 area? There might be enough of those?
