Steam Trading Cards - People seriously buy foil cards?

Dayum, holla holla get dolla

It's joke.

holy foil! i gotta get me those cards! :D

Not surprised, considering the fact that I've sold TF2 items for quite a bit.

Good that you sold it so quickly, since it is bound to go down in value once there are more of them floating around in the marketplace. Congratulations! :)

I sold an HL2 foil card at 10 bucks..

i traded a cubemen 2 foil for worms revolution, dino-dday, and 2$ paypal

Don't mock them. I found a Foil card and managed to sell it. Please, keep me in my game habit.

maybe for the foil badge

congrats!
now i just gotta get me a foil in a card drop...

How to increase your level?

My Cubeman foil was only worth about $5 :'(

Better than nothing!

You're rounding up, round it down. It's only about $50.

Sold Bit Trip foil for 16$ just after they announced that anyone can get foil drops now (i would probably sold it for 30-40$ min day before) but im not complaining, hey free money!

I feel like if they keep adding games I have with the money I will make from cards(Hell even 50 cents a card, 5-6 cards a game, thats 3 bucks about) I won't have to spend much on the summer sale.

<3 Cards.

well this kinda reminds me of this strip though one has to wonder if the extra showcases on profile or friend list slots that seem to be only tangible outcome are really worth it. On the other hand, they support devs, Valve and someone else is happy (you) to get some "free money". Like you say, good for you :3 I suppose items on Diablo 3 market were selling well too, no?

These will only be $$ while its in beta. When everyone has this as the norm the cards will be a few pennies so sell em while you can!

Yeah, if you get a rare foil early on, you can make stupid cash. I sold some tf2 items and shit and that balanced out the money I spent to buy regular cards

Yes.

i bought a portal 2 foil card for 4,2 euro and sold it after a day for 5,2 euro.
i won 1 euro, eeeeeeeee.

i seen people that look for others mistakes that are selling foil cards like normal cards, they buy a foil card for 0,5 euro and sell them for even 11 euro.

also i bought cubeman 2 pack for 2,5 euro and i won 2,5 euro from it s trading cards, so conclusion is i got for free cubeman 2 pack (-75% steam sale)

and with the cards from half life 2, left 4 dead 2, portal 2, t fortress 2 i got 8,5 euro profit and i bought 4 tf2 keys and traded them for CIVILIZATION V gold and i have left with 1,6 euro.

so i think this trading card thing is good.

Sold a Really Big Sky one to this guy for $10.50

I think he has money to spend :P

Do not count someone else's money

I've had a foil card for a few weeks now, but every time I put it up for sale for the lowest price, 5-6 others have set their cards lower within an hour or 2, which means that you have to be lucky with buyers.
