Hi folks, I'm wondering how you organise your wishlist/tradelists. I'm not looking for much, I just want to have a place to save two lists of cards; one with cards that I want to trade away/sell and one with cards that I want to trade for/buy.

I want to post these lists to my local magic discord on occasion and sometimes copy paste the wishlist into a place like cardmarket for buying the cards.

Today I am using deckbox.org and it feels a bit on the clunky side. There are several features in there I don't really use, plus the UX is a bit bad for some things (the search function sucks and the visual list is not very compact, for example).

I am not looking to organise my entire collection. I am also already using Moxfield for decklists and am pretty happy with that.

I'm tempted to just make a spreadsheet with cards names, but I admit it is nice to be able to see visual cards if you forget what a specific card is and for sharing the list as a visual list.

As I play pauper and wishlist a lot of cheap commons, the wishlist can get quite long, perhaps up to 200 unique card names or so.

Could you share an example of how the lists look?

I use Deckbox as well, but my real tradelist is in Cardsphere. I keep a list of wants on deep discount and the bonus is that every now and then someone sends me a bargain.

Cardsphere is the solution you’re looking for. It’s great for exactly this, and is pretty much the only way I trade (buy and sell) anymore.

Looks like a neat solution, unfortunately, the first post on that site is announcing that they are shutting down.
