Re: A few games for sale

[Mark Crane]

When I read the gmail preview it looked like you were selling a game
called "Steam Giants," which sounded kind of cool. What are you
asking for Zombicide?

It's brand new, in the shrink still, and I paid $85 for it with shipping from Coolstuff since noone else has it, so I understand if it's too expensive, but that's all I'd part for it for.

[reddish22]

But I'm also accepting trades for Steam or Wasabi for Cuba. I really wanna try that one!

[Bagley Kendon]

Would you be interested in any partial trade deals?

 

I have:

Battles of Westeros

Eclipse (which I think you already have from the sounds of it)

Tide of Iron

Battleship Galaxies

Lord of the Rings the Card Game collection (still not sure if I want to part with it yet though)

We really need to run a Utah county math trade.

I'd definitely trade for another copy of Eclipse, I have a friend that wants to get a copy. What do you have in mind?

[Bagley Kendon]

I'm interested in Zombicide, actually. With Eclipse would you be willing to do a straight trade? Its opened but only played twice and I keep all my games in great shape. Also, which city are you in? I'm in Provo.

I'm in provo too. I would have to think about that one, but I'd do it for steam and giants for sure. Maybe throw in like 10 bucks as well.
My wife saw zombicide and thinks it looks pretty cool, so we might wanna hang onto it. Anyways think about that :)

I'll second Mark's suggestion.  I think a Utah County Math Trade is a great idea.  

[bart elison]

Seems like we tried this once before.  People listed some items, and then nothing happened.  I'd be up for participating in this as well

If we use the formal math trade mechanism and let Salt Lakers participate, provided they travel to a central trade location *cough* boardgame revolution *cough* on a designated day, then there should be decent participation.  In the past there have been trades associated with the SLC game conference.

[reddish22]

I'd definitely be up for it as well!

[Mark Crane]

Let's talk BGR into hosting this! We could start the trade on Monday
and exchange games on Saturday evening.

[Chris Robbins]

I would love to host this, however I don't know the first thing about running a math trade.
I have Jeremy looking into this, I know bgg has some online tools.

Chris.

[Mark Crane]

All you would have to provide is a space for everyone to meet and exchange their games, and hopefully buy additional games that they wanted and didn't receive in the trade!  Jeremy or someone else could run the actual trade on the BGG end.

[Bret Swalberg]

Could someone give a quick overview of how a math trade works.  I understand you put games in and you receive games in return, but do you specify which games you would like?

[Mark Crane]

Yes, you specify which games you want to trade for and can even prioritize them.

[Canadian Dave]

There's a pretty good tool that is usually used that is free.  One of the BGGers made it a few years ago.  I know they use it for SaltCON.  I'll have to look it up later.

Math trades work so that you name which games (from the list of games being offered by participants) you would accept for the game you're offering, and the computer matches up trades so that the trade involves several people, but everyone gets a game that s/he wanted.  Not every game will be traded (who wants one of my many copies of Malarky - no one? thought so), but for the most part, it works well. 

[Canadian Dave]

And I just noticed that Mark posted the BGG link for everything you need to know about Math Trades.  Sorry for the repeat.  haha
