I understand the benefits of having a bucket. They can be a great tool for trading. I don't do buckets and a recent thread response triggered something in me that I have to share. This is not to target anyone in particular, just to make those aware that suggest "Check My Bucket" to be considerate.
I offered a card recently, provided a picture of the card in the thread. One of the responses I received was " I have a Game Used ...(players name), check my bucket!". OK, I have in my signature that I don't check buckets but what the heck, I'll take a look. Well, I get to this bucket and notice there are 120 pictures in the file and the first picture I see is this:
120 of these things where I would have to go through all of them to find the one card your offering me!
If your going to offer a card up from a bucket, why not offer a link or picture of it so I don't have to waste my time searching. After all, it is YOU that wants a card from me. It is only being considerate.
Just a suggestion in making trading more fun and easy. I don't mean to start a fight but if your starting a new bucket, please post 1 picture per file and label it well. Thanks, Mike
