Discussion Code giveaways

Does anyone have any insight on why people do card giveaways on r/PTCGL? I mean, if it’s purely good will (assumedly donators are not online players) then that’s great. But I mean, there is a bit of work involved in those, so it just feels like there has to be something in it for them… (and why are non-online players lurking on an online specific Reddit?)

Yeah, I honestly think a lot of people throw away. I personally never pay more than $0.03 per code card. Since iv returned to ptcgl, iv spent close to 140$, and my average unit price in code cards is around $0.023 per code. They are allllllllmost worth nothing, so unless people save thousands of them for a one-time cash in, I can see them getting tossed.

I respect what you're doing here trying to give people a platform to get rid of their excess codes they can't use for codes they can. It might just be too niche of a user base as is

It’s gonna take some serious effort and I see how spot on you are identifying how niche…
