When composing a trade and requesting a card that isn't on the other person's sale/trade list and/or offering a card that isn't on their want list, can you still link to those cards directly or do you just have to type it in without the link?

No I don't think you can.

Intentional I suppose to prevent unsolicited offers?

Hard for the system to move cards from one member's collection to another's if the card isn't there in the first place. Completely intentional.

-- Dan -- Note: Please see my profile for more info regarding trading (section updated 10/25/2023). I have added a large portion of my inventory to the site, and currently have trading turned off (details are in my profile). I have (finally) unearthed my 2 very large boxes of Star Company minor league sets and they are available (email for details).

I mean, if it's in someone's collection but not on their sale / trade list. If there's a way to request a card from someone's collection rather than from their for sale / trade list, I haven't found it yet.

The best way is to message them Just to see if they are willing to trade cards that are in their collection. I for one will not trade/sale cards out of my collection.

I get that, and did so with a trade I'm working on. Now that we've agreed on the trade, I was just trying to formalize it correctly through the site.

Ask him to move the card to his trade list so you can use it.

I'm going to reevaluate how I collect after the new year. It's just getting way too expensive for the new stuff. Sometimes I just want to buy a pack, not a whole box or even blaster.

You can copy and paste the cards you want or offering in the blank box above the "select items" box. I traded that way the first eighteen months I was here. You have to manually add or subtract the cards to add or remove from your inventory. I use the "system" now for most trades, but sometimes the "system" doesn't work as it should. Good Luck.
