    Yeah. I don’t really know much at all about how or why people are buying the stuff or the digital cards or the whole booster pack things that steam does. There’s a ton of little pictures I have, and for whatever reason tons of people buy them if you want to sell them off. Mostly 5 to 25 cents a piece. I’ve never messed with it.

      I know the cards are worth a few cents each. Selling those is more trouble than it’s worth.

      I meant the inventory gift games being worth something.

        Selling those cards is only worth the trouble if it’s a lot and you automate the selling. Once sold a few thousands that accumulated and got >100 bucks.

          But why are they being bought? Are people actually collecting and wanting them? Or is it like a pyramid scheme stock market and people are buying and selling thousands for bits of profit?
