  1. I don’t sell dice outright
  2. I buy dice outright :)
  3. I’m willing to consider trading for dice + money

trade philosphy

I evaluate:

  1. The rarity of the pieces up for trade
  2. How badly I want something / how happy it will make me
  3. The ‘market’ value, if available (‘sold’ listings on eBay, historical sales in the dice community over time). Many rare pieces simply don’t have a market value.

When evaluating a trade offer, I am not usually counting up the USD value of an offer and comparing it to the USD value of my trade stock. Sets that are still in-print are never going to add up to the value of a truly rare set even if the USD market value is the same.

If you want to trade but don’t have anything on my ISO, I’m still open to talking! It can be helpful to structure such a trade in two parts (explicitly or implicitly):

  1. An offering that’s approximately equal in value (comparatively rare, comparatively costly)
  2. An offering of convenience that incentivizes me to pick this trade over any other offers (e.g., a big pile of ’lower value’ ISO like in-print sets, D&G gems, etc)
