Don´t fall for the "market value scam". Sell the ones you don´t want to keep for realistic prices (just a little bit above junk value), and buy the ones you want to get at realistic prices (don´t bid on "absurd asks"); look out for "low owner cards", especially series 1 (but also series 2) "dead nations".
Don´t cheat or scam, and be polite on the forum and when tging someone.
Try to find a theme (not already occupied by another player, because you almost have no chance to compete with players collecting and/or farming for two or more years) for a collection, if you like; read the forum, many players announce the kind of cards they´re looking for in there.
And most important of all : never forget, it´s just a game, so don´t get to angry or frustrated and keep your real life going.

I'm new to this too but I have something to say about cards with few owners being basically valueless. Outside of the 2 or 3 accounts who put junk value bids on every undiscovered card, nobody is trying to buy them it seems, not surprisingly because they are hard to find and keep track of with the NS user interface.

Commons with 1-10 finds and owners are not actively sought by anybody, so if you put a 0.25 sell on a card with 2 owners for example because it is "rare", it will sit there for weeks to months. These cards are almost always used by people to transfer bank from one account to another of theirs and nothing else so they have no intrinsic value otherwise. If you pull one of these cards and underbid the (usually 1 to 4 point) transfer you're just being an annoyance, so it's kind of like why bother? Just junk it or gift it to the person using it for transferring.

Uncommons with few owners don't do anything better than a common can in this regard, but they cost more to gift, so they are even less desirable. If there are no standing bids and the card isn't interesting, it's more junk.

Rares and up, yeah people might want em, but you are still looking at holding the card up for sale for weeks probably.

I basically only hang on to new cards if there is a history of a particular person collecting it or standing bids for it. Unless it's some card that a 1%er transferred 300 bucks on a year ago, that can inflate your collection value temporarily, but that value will blow away in smoke eventually, I wouldn't hang on to those for long if possible. Every point of spendable bank you have is worth 100x any point of value in a particular card, so junking a lot of cards is a good thing usually.

I honestly wish people would not mess with bank transfers

I've been seriously paying attention to this over the past month momo because as a new trader I had assumed that cards with low numbers in existence would have some value, but I disagree with that assertion now. Virtually all of those sales are transfers and people are not interest in buying them at a higher price in order to transferbecause generally you can find a new one every 3rd pack or so. I've had dozens of low owner commons and a few uncommons up for sale for weeks now at various prices with zero interest in any of them. Decided to start junking them recently.

I just sold 1 for 7.50 the other day and multiple lower owner card for 3.00
Sooo

Unless you’re farming cards, just junk all uncommons and commons if you don’t have an expanded deck. Then you can save up for the best cards. I’d usually see if my rares/ultrarares have potential buyers. If so I’ll just sell. I usually want furry or kpop cards so I’ll just junk all of my cards if they don’t fall into the category. Unless they’re rare or higher and people wanna buy them.

Any card has a vaule if you can find the right market.

For example I have several bids at JV at 0 owner cards that if you turned it up I'd gladly raise my bid I just can't in any same way search through my 40,000 bids to see that someone listed a card. At my lose this means a large amount of cards that could have vaule go with out being sold.

I don't know any one who buys any and all low owner cards but w lot of the top % traders got there and have the bank to raise their bids if you ask polieitly. If your rude or piss them off good luck. But being nice gets you pretty far and knowing where to list cards gets you further.

Try building a collection you care about. It's all well and good to have lots of money or deck value, but sometimes the most fun thing to do is work towards a goal. Maybe you want to collect a small group of region-mates; if you're like me, you may like the idea of a theme collection instead. If you want a bigger task, you can do game-created-region collections or rarity collections for a season or two. Since the cards game doesn't have a Big Objective, you have to invent your own — just getting cards and keeping all x-rarity-and-above probably won't be as fun, so give yourself a carrot to chase. For instance, collect cards with carrots! I don't know anyone who does that.

How do I get more card slots?

[Giovanniland]

How do I get more card slots?

When you're close or over capacity, you'll see a little "Capacity: x cards. Upgrade..." below the card count of your deck. You can click it and then the value of bank you need to upgrade capacity will be shown.
If you don't have enough bank, you can sell or junk cards you have. If you do, just click the "Do it" button.
