| I just hit 100 official trades, with the completion of my trade with Ragnarok. (Thanks, Ragnarok!) To all of you who've traded with me, whether as wilder_jw, Jeff Wilder, or Wayne Laredo, thank you for helping me complete every set so quickly and (almost) painlessly. Some notable names, whether for multiple trades or otherwise: Narethkraag, spikegif, Zenako ...
I'm being played off. Anyway, thanks again, folks. | | Jeff "Wayne Laredo" Wilder | Email | Have/Want List | Trade Policies | Are You an Ethical Trader?

Something like that, yeah. Even more amazing, to my mind, is it's one trade per 20 posts, even counting those of my previous incarnation. (Some may recall that I had a custom avatar and title back then, but that was for service to the site, and definitely not for post count!) | | Jeff "Wayne Laredo" Wilder | Email | Have/Want List | Trade Policies | Are You an Ethical Trader?

I don't look at it as money spent on shipping. I look at it as money saved by not having to buy boosters! It's all in the attitude.
Congrats, Counselor.

| Congrats--I'm over a quarter of the way to that, but reduced booster accumulation and increased singles purchases makes it exceeeeeeedingly unlikely that I'll ever catch up with you, let alone reach that. I only traded heavily when I first found out about this place and realized that there were tons of figs I had that I didn't want and vice versa. Again, that's an esoteric but very sweet accomplishment! | | *WoTC Delegate (Chicago)* :=: My Trade Thread :=: DISPUTED TRADE WITH TREE DRUID!!!!!!!! | |

| The funny thing is that I've been very pleased with myself recently for *reducing* the number of trades I need to make.
In the GoL through Deathknell days, I was making 5 to 10 trades for each expansion. However, I've been focusing my attention on more efficient purchasing methods recently.
Those efforts have really cut down on the number of trades I make, the number of useless figures I have in my collection, and the total cost I've been spending per set... while simultaneously increasing the number of rares per set I've been able to afford. Between War Drums and WotDQ, I've made a total of 5 trades (none through the mail that I can think of), and 3 of those were unnecessary trades that I performed just to help someone out. | | Champion of Meepo _*_ Myztek on the Wizards Boards. _*_ (2206 DDM on 03/06/06) Please note: The use of the indicates an attempt at humor ... often a bad attempt.

Heh, easier said than done. I'm over 150 international already. Everytime I try to approximate my total postal spending, I get a little sick and wonder if they were all worth it. [V]
