    I always go straight to the wanted lists. Otherwise I might get my hopes up only to realise I have nothing that person wants.

    Ditto. That way I don't know what I may be missing if I don't have what the person wants. The crack in the wall is getting too big for my head banging anyway.

    I always check the available list first cause if they have something I want, maybe I can GET something they want if I don't have it. Also, I know that at least for me personally, my wanted list is only a small portion of the stuff I'd consider trading for...I'll take a lot more than just what's on there!

    I always read what they want first, then what they have to trade/sell......so then i can make accurate guesses about the type of colllector they are..or something.
