You can affotd to trade in the favor of your trade partners if the cost of your stock is low enough. That’s how to trade into legacy staples for example, even when people expect a premium.

Ebay is ok for buyers, sucks for sellers. Getting hit by ebay and paypal fees seems, um, unfair…

Mutavault in general is a hold at 20 $, buy at 15 $ and sell at 30 $. The card will remain very liquid (easy to move) regardless of price though. It is just that playable.

Detention Sphere looks cheap, Izzet Charm too.

I feel as if Mutavault is at his peek/too damn high. If I had any I would be offloading them ASAP. Once the 1cost B spell hits standard, people are going to be discouraged from him and he will tank back down to a reasonable Investment number.

I agree with the idea of never trading at a loss. Always come out on top in a trade when Trading portfolio wise. (When trading Friends/Important traders, just make sure you maintain that Bond that doesn’t discourage them from further investment trades)

In my opinion, A lot of people are discouraged from Ebay. You have to deal with Ebay Sticking their Honey covered hands into your profits, And then if you use Paypal, they will stick your hands in there once, or even twice. Perhaps providing a little more thought on Ebay in this sense? I have tried scooping out Ebay late nights during the week and occasionally find a few good investments, but then 10$ or 5$ shipping totally kills them.
