The Rancors: yes, I know, I'm the guy who complained about Rancor on the front page. If you can't beat them, trade them away so you don't have to look at them.

Not for trade, don't ask: the Masticore from my second pack of Urza's Destiny. It's in a toploader in a drawer and I look at it sometimes.

Also have: a small stack of Pokemon cards my nephew left here, including a holo Scyther from Jungle. I'll trade them for Magic cards to anyone whose kid (or nephew) wants them.

1. By mail, inside the U.S. only. Postage overseas eats the whole trade.
2. E-mail me first with what you want and what you're offering. I go by the Scrye price guide as a rough idea, but I'm not going to fight about a dollar.
3. If we've never traded, we each send half, then the other half once the first half arrives. If you've got more references than me, I'll send first.
4. I grade honestly: NM (near mint), EX (light wear), VG (played but no creases), and "played" (you'll see it's been loved). If a card shows up worse than I said, I'll make it right.
5. Everything goes out in a sleeve and a toploader, between two pieces of cardboard, in a bubble mailer. Please do the same.
6. No cash sales. Cards for cards.
7. If you're under 18, have a parent e-mail me first. Sorry, but that's the rule.
