Hey guys, I have a ton of older cards that I'd love to transfer to MTGO tix. I know CapeFearGames.com has a program that lets you trade your real cards for MTGObot store credit, but I'm not interested in getting half price for my Wastelands, Scalding Tarns, etc...
Does this kind of trading happen on MOTL or is it pretty much cardboard for cardboard?

A few do it but why don't you just sell the cards and then buy tix?

You can also try to skip a step and put cards up for sale with a conversion rate for tix (say you value them at .98, for example) or just a list of MTGO cards you're interested in. I was able to work a swap where I took a stack of MTGO cards + some tix and sent them in exchange for some paper cards, which cut out paypal fees and losing $$ on converting MTGO cards to tix for me, while getting the cards into the other party's hands quickly.

I've bought plenty of cards and paid in MTGO tix. If you have decent stuff you'll not have any problems with this.
