Buying cards near burn value is considered close to risk-free (in terms of DEC amount) as the card owners has the option to burn their cards and receive a corresponding DEC amount based on the collection power (aka burn value) of the card. Aside from that, you can also earn rental income while you are still uncertain of what you want to do with the card that you bought.
In this post, we will be showing you how easy it is to look for cards that are listed close to its burn value!
PeakMonsters Market Page
GO TO PEAKMONSTERS MARKET PAGE
To start your journey in buying cards near their burn value, we have to go first to the PeakMonsters marketplace page. In here, you'll see listings of Splinterlands cards and you can navigate the market page with several tools that can help you and you also have the option to view listings with a different view mode (yours will probably in Grid View Mode by default).
In order to access the PRICE ABOVE BURN page, we'll be using the COMPARE VIEW MODE as indicated on the screenshot above.
COMPARE VIEW MODE THEN SELECT PRICE ABOVE BURN
While in Compare View Mode, the next step is to click on the Compare by dropdown and then select Price above burn.
You'll see that the page will update with new data. And here is where the fun starts!
Compare by: Price Above Burn
Now that we are in the Price above burn compare page, let us talk how you can find and buy these great deals!
As shown in the above image, aside from the card details we also have the following additional columns:
- Low Price BCX - lowest listed price of the card per BCX
- CP per BCX - Collection Power per BCX of the card
- Cost above burn - Cost of the card above burn value (i.e. Listing price minus CP)
- Diff - Ratio difference of low price and CP
You may refer to these columns to quickly see which cards are a great deal. But if you're in a rush, you may simply opt to just take a quick look on the Diff and Cost above burn column as the highest one will show you the best deal in terms of burn value.
LAVA LAUNCHER EXAMPLE
For example, if you are going to Lava Launcher in the screenshot -- it means that you are buying a card that you can burn for 100 DEC at a price of 102.124 DEC (refer to Low Price BCX column).
This means that you only need to earn 2.124 DEC from rental in your purchase to breakeven. As of writing, the average rental price of a 1 BCX Lava Launcher is 0.10 DEC -- this means that after 22 days you'll already breakeven at your purchase!
