PROTRADER: PucaPicks for 12/8/16

One of the things I like best about PucaTrade is how easily I can mine my collection for value. I’ve been playing a long time, and while I have more valuable things to send out, there’s not much that feels better than sending out a stack of commons for full value. Some of these buylist for decent money, but I really like getting bonuses for the simple effort of rifling through old draft chaff.

So I’m going to get through Scars of Mirrodin block today, and there’s some surprising stuff in there. If you find it relaxing to sort through a thousand-count box and pluck out twenty bucks in value, this is how to get that feeling.

A reminder that these are not the most valuable cards from their expansions. These are the ones higher on the want list, so these are the ones that will not linger long on your have list. Find them, send them, and profit.

PROTRADER: PucaPicks for 12/1/16

I have to admit, I’m really enjoying this series, as I delve into older and older sets looks for not the most valuable cards, but the cards that are in highest demand (as of this writing).

We are reaching the point at which power isn’t as much of a factor as availability is. Most of these are either printed once on a much smaller scale, or they have been printed several times and this is only one of the several versions available.

My goal remains the same: I want to find the cards that are both worth enough points to warrant picking out of bulk or binders, and also on enough want lists that I can send the card out relatively rapidly. These aren’t all the cards worth picking, these are just the ones easiest to get rid of–a prime consideration of mine at all times.

PROTRADER: PucaPicks for 11/17/16

Last week I left off after Magic 2015, and I’ve got some more to talk about! I’m diving for uncommons and commons that are in high demand and yet can be found languishing in old binders and bulk boxes. This week, we are going to make it all the way back to Return to Ravnica, being on the lookout for cards that people want a lot, not just the ones that are high value.

I want to reiterate: These are the cards that can be overlooked, or underestimated. You might think that these are too commonly printed to be worth the trouble, or no one wants these, but I’m here to help make picking through a binder or a bulk box that much more fun and profitable.

One of the features of Puca that I’ve really come to appreciate is the ability to sort cards and expansions by how many people want a card.

I find it super helpful to sort out what I can send in multiples, and what packages I can put together. It’s also great for me to get a quick list of the things I really want to look for from an expansion, most especially when I am sorting through chaff and looking for the things to pick out.

So this week, I want to peruse some expansions and see where I can pluck value, either from old draft boxes, or the nickel bulk box at your store, or at someone’s binder.

I’m going to go from Kaladesh backwards, so strap in!
