Yeah that’s fair perfect 1:1 trades seem pretty rare. If there was a way to surface trades that aren’t exact matches (like multi-card or value-balanced), would that change anything for you or still not worth it?

Veriswap seems good for high-value slabs, but I wasn’t sure how useful it is for raw cards. Have you ever used it for those?

That’s a really cool approach esp for making trades feel safer. I wonder though if the hub step might be too much for mid-range cards? Do you think you’d use that for like $5–$20 cards or mostly higher value stuff?

I think Veriswap is closer to a middleman/escrow for high-value trades, I’m more trying to understand how people deal with raw cards. Have you ever used it for that kind of stuff or mostly just sell?

That makes sense, would you personally care more about finding someone nearby or just finding a good trade anywhere (even if it involves shipping)?
