I hope that the big surprise wont be the new interface of the steam client =/
Btw it sucks, as some other i also get enough money to pick 1 or 2 cheap games by selling those cards.
And no the lunar sale was not funny, was borring as always, you get tokens by buying games as it was with trading cards 1 every 10 bucks.
Bring the Trading Cards back, some want to level up their profile i want to sell them the cards they need (lol that sounds like a droug dealer)

Offside Q: What to do with cards of games not longer sold on steam (i cant get the full package and i cant sell cards?)
Comment has been collapsed.
Non-marketable cards i.e. "This item can no longer be bought or sold on the Community Market because Valve no longer has a business relationship with the developer." still have a value, so don't turn them into gems! You can still craft booster packs for those non-marketable games, trade cards with other people, make badges. Check the trading forum for the game, there are often people looking for the cards. Just don't expect to get rich, most non-marketable cards are from crap games that were given out like candy... :)
Also, VanillaBot trades non-marketable cards from any set 1:1, but "good" cards will be traded away quickly so it's usually full of rubbish. :) If you have a lot of them, you should be able to get some complete sets that way.

Yes, 99% of the time removed / non-marketable / whatever makes no difference. For a small number of games there's weird stuff going on, but I don't know why. Maybe that developer did something extra-stupid to annoy someone at Valve? No clue. :)
Here's the badge pages I can't even look at, i.e. "Sorry! An error was encountered while processing your request: Invalid Game"
https://steamcommunity.com/my/gamecards/518160/ ABRAMS TANK (8 cards)
https://steamcommunity.com/my/gamecards/267790/ DARK BLOOD ONLINE (5 cards)
https://steamcommunity.com/my/gamecards/407510/ Devilian (6 cards)
https://steamcommunity.com/my/gamecards/441020/ Heavenstrike Rivals (15 cards)
And here's the booster packs I can't create. Most likely there are others I haven't noticed. For some of these it looks like you can craft them, but if you try you get "There was a problem creating your booster pack. Please try again later." For others it doesn't even give you a thing to click on. Oh well.

Ah, interesting. Thanks :)
So I could have gotten a key for Mini Attack Submarine for cheap (they get still traded) and make some spare Sale backgrounds / emotes into gems to craft them booster packs for myself - wasn't aware about that...
Yeah, the situation with Devilian is more than strange. You still can buy those cards on the market without any warn leaving the impression they are also usable & then it turns out, while you still can buy them, you cannot access them via the badge page and cannot craft them. That's close to a scam from the Steam side, I think :<

I might try to play around with the U Can't Craft This badges, to see if you can edit the html on a working badge to craft one of those, but if it were that simple someone would have done it by now. :) Oh well...
It does seem dumb to let us craft booster packs for those games, and I've thought maybe if we contact Steam support the problem might be forwarded to some Valve person who'd be able fix it. But I wonder - what are the odds Valve's fix would make things better? :) Maybe they would fix it by disabling all non-marketable or banned or removed game badge pages. No thanks... :)

Aw damn, no cards? That's a shame, I always enjoy those :/ Way to kill the hype.

"New"
Just repeats Lunar New Year all over it seems. Someone tell Valve the definition of new. With horrid icons and bgs (bar maybe corgi and hare emoticon) just dump all coins in the badge I suppose.
Well that was... "fun"... I guess. Not sure what the game's all about but using my boost already I need to spend money or wait till tomorrow. Oh JOY!
Oh well, who is shocked really? No point crafting badges I guess too right? Saving for Winter then hoping this isn't a permanent change.

Some clarification concerning the wording.
These are two separate sentences. You can't take a part from the second and combine it with the first.
meaning: no sale cards, period.
also, additionally no mystery cards prior to sale
Saying there will be cards during the sale just not before is, unfortunately, wrong. Also:
just delaying cards for a week wouldn't really qualify as 'something different'
