Posted by: Luke2411 Jul 27 2009, 11:29 AM

Trade-A-Thon

THE TRADING CARD CENTRAL MONTHLY TRADE-A-THON IS BACK AGAIN BEGINNING August 20, 2009 AND LASTING UNTIL August 23, 2009.

This 4-day event will once again be a time where all Collector Zone members are encouraged to focus on trading, buying and selling with each other. So, dust off your trade and want lists! In addition, stop by the local shop and make sure you're fully stocked with shipping supplies.

Come Thursday (8/20/09) all attention will turn to trading, buying and selling! We'll also have a number of giveaways - including a special prize for the member that completes the most transactions by the time the September 2009 Trade-a-Thon starts (only transactions posted during the Trade-a-Thon will apply)!

As you can see, this special event should be a great time and a great opportunity for many of you to obtain some new cards from your want lists!

Let's do everything we can to continue making this a great series of monthly trade-a-thons here at Trading Card Central.


Here's one of the prizes that will be given away...

I agree. wink.gif

Posted by: Luke2411 Aug 24 2009, 11:23 AM

I'll get some stats up here this afternoon on this trade-a-thon. Thanks everyone for participating.

Posted by: Luke2411 Aug 25 2009, 11:22 AM

Here are some preliminary results from the August Trade-a-Thon.

You can view them here...

http://www.tradingcardcentral.com/apps/transactions_by_date.php?start=08-20-2009&end=08-23-2009&mode=tat


There were a total of 142 transactions posted during the August Trade-a-Thon.

Compare that to the May Trade-a-Thon where 269 transactions were completed.

So, this month's trade-a-thon was not as successful. I'm going to chalk that up to being late in the summer where people were finishing up their vacations, or in my case the last weekend before classes started again here in Texas.

Let's see if we can get back on track with the next trade-a-thon.

As these transactions get completed, I'll have more information on winners and prizes.

I wish I could have participated.

And to think . . . I thought I did well with my four trades.

Posted by: Luke2411 Sep 2 2009, 01:20 PM

So far, 109 of the transactions for the August Trade-A-Thon have been completed. There are 33 left.

Right now, rtsjr is leading with 10 completed trades. We'll see if he can hold on to the lead as the other 33 close.

Posted by: Luke2411 Sep 30 2009, 05:11 PM

The August Trade-a-thon resulted in 139 completed transactions, of which 78 where trades.

The person with the most trades was rtsjr.

For completing the most trades in the allotted time period, rtsjr will receive....
