Will you be crafting Summer Sale Badges?
Steam level 111 is what I intend to go get too. from then, I have no desire to continue crafting badges on Steam anymore, because... well, it's kinda pointless...
thanks, you too :)

whats the benefit of getting any levels on steam, other than you that you can expand your friends lists? there is no benefit, it just looks better than my current level, 102 in my book ;)

Booster packs apparently drop more often if you are on a higher level,, but I rarely get them, I would even say I got more boosters when I was at lower levels.

I mean this is just a bonus for people who craft badges anyway. For anyone who don't care about any of the things you normally get for crafting a badge it's a very very bad idea to craft badges just to get mystery cards - there is far more value in the cards you'd lose crafting the badge than in the mystery/sale card you get for it. Whether you trade or sell normally just stick to that.
If you craft badges normally though just plan around sales and do as much as possible of the crafting in the week before the sale for some free goodies in addition to whatever you normally get from crafting them.

It can depend on the set to a degree but what you say is true as a general rule.
For example some cards are only selling for £0.03 for me. After Valve take their £0.01 and give £0.01 to the dev I'm left with £0.01 per card at that price. So I'm looking at £0.05, £0.06 etc. per set for these minimum priced ones depending on how many cards are in the set.
If I can sell a mystery card for £0.07 I get the same £0.05 as I would selling 5 cards at the lowest price. A mystery sold for £0.08 gives me £0.06 etc. If I got in early I may even make a penny or two on those kind of sets, selling a mystery for £0.10 or so and receiving £0.08. I'd also be getting the emote and background for crafting a badge that I might be able to sell and I'll be leveling up too which can increase the chances of getting future boosters with every 10 levels.
I'm not going to do it though as I'm not ready and we're not talking about significant sums of money here at all are we? I might be able to make £2 extra or something if I crafted 50 extremely cheap sets as opposed to selling the cards from them. It's not exactly a big difference but if I wanted to get every last penny it might be worth crafting the very cheapest ones. I'm still actually farming cards not just on my main account but a couple of alternatives and I'm disorganised. Maybe in the future but it doesn't really matter either way.

I used to get a bit more involved prior to the mobile authenticator. Now I can't sell cards any more.
I still usually try to craft the event badge once.

Sale badges and such are the only ones I craft since I can do it without spending anything

I'm going to craft 1 summer set, and sell the rest.
I do however have more than 50 normal sets to craft this sale.

That's what I do. (Unless I really hate the look of the level 1 badge, then I'll go level 2.)

I just saved a few complete sets for badges (39 sets in total) for the sale because the discount vouchers normally aren't worth it... that's by far not as much as the typical crafter hoards tho. :3
Basically I don't really care. The sale's extra tasks normally provide atleast 1 or 2 badges for free anyway.

I saved my completed sets for a summer/winter sale. I don't need coupons for bad/trash games so i prefer to get a few cards for it as a extra.
You get a few free cards over the event so make 1 or 2 badges shouldn't be a problem.
Normaly i craft then the sale badge as often i have cards for it (from the free cards and the extra ones for normal badge making).

I'll be crafting sets like crazy as always. I look up every badge on steamcardexchange to see if it looks fugly or not and only make those that look "cool," "hip," and "on brand." Will do the same with the Sale badge once the images are up so I'll know how far to go. Last Winter sale I leveled all the way up to the rolling eyeballs because rolling eyeballs are glorious. I hope there are rolling eyeballs this Sale, but alas. We shall see.

.I'll craft it once just to have it, but I'm doubtful I'll be crafting it higher. I've often crafted higher just to get a specific badge if it looks nice enough for me to want, the highest I've gone is badge level 20 but usually stuck in single digits outside of that one instance. However this time I'm not too keen on crafting any higher or it'll be sure to mess up my Steam level which I don't want to happen until it's inevitably gone in December. :p

I usually craft them and very rarely put them on the market.

Yes, a couple of hours before the sales end I put those few leftovers on the market.

You are level 585? That's... insane. May I ask how often you are getting booster pack drops? Just curious to know how much such a high level (and that many owned games) does in these regards.

I get 3.5 boosters\week (3 boosters one week and 4 the following week).

So Summer Sale 2018 starts in 7 days. Usually Steam gives you Mystery Cards one week prior to the sale if you craft a badge, which will turn into Summer Sale Cards once the sale starts eventually. Today Mystery Cards should be dropped if you craft a badge.
Anyone here going to craft Summer Sale Badges like crazy, once the sale starts?
I never crafted a summer or winter sale badge and don't intend to. I rather sell the cards on the steam market...
EDIT: MYSTERIOUS CARDS DO DROP AS OF NOW!
