Does anyone know if it is reasonable to trade anyway 4 Mana Drains (One is Italian) for a Mox Sapphire? I don't feel the need for my Drains anymore and I would like to complete my Mox collection. All the cards are NM and I can send pics when my Girlfriend comes home with her digital camera. Is this a reasonable deal for a trade? I appreciate any experienced trader's opinion.

I have traded away my two Grim Tutors and Workshop for an NM Ancestral Recall to Necropotenza. I am sure he would be more than willing to back me up as someone that is trust worthy.

I would consider this a bad trade for the person with the Mox Sapphire. Take a look at eBay prices and I think you will realize that. English Drains sell for $80 and Italian $60. That comes out to $300.

 I was going by the Star City games price of 130.00 for the English Drains. I just noticed the English ones on Ebay are going for 90-97$ each with Buy it now. I wasn't sure about the value of Mana Drains since I kept seeing different things. I guess Star City Games really over shoots the value of Drains (140.00?!) , but their UL sapphire goes for around 420$?

Either way, I do have other stuff to add for the trade, if anyone is interested. Library of Alexandria comes to mind as a card I don't use but own. I can also pay the left over cost with money. My Drains just sit in my binder and I would much rather have the last Mox I need.

If someone gave me $300 and an eBay account, I would give them 3 English Drains and an Italian one. I'm not making this up; check the completed listing on eBay. SCG prices and eBay buy it now means absolutely nothing. What does mean something is what other people have paid last week on eBay.

I wasn't saying I don't trust your knowledge. That is why I asked for help.  Wink
I'm happy that you posted. I thought Drains were worth a lot more because of the costs on Star City. Like I said I have a Library too, and other stuff like DCI vampiric Tutor Foil, etc.
