Building collection

Hey everyone,
So was wondering what would be the best, cheapest way to build a collection? I mostly draft but that doesn't really build anything except commons lol. Any tips/advice is welcome.

Honestly, after a set has been out for about a month or two, you can usually shop in the marketplace and buy a lot of cards w/ just 1 or 2 tix. You could probably spend maybe 5 tix and get 3/4 of a set just by shopping around. The 1/4 you didnt get is the higher end Standard legal cards which eventually will drop down once they rotate out. Patience is the key!

A good place to buy from is MTGO Traders.

I actually read their articles and all so that is sage advice there, I didn't know you could actually buy most of the set for less than 10 tix (goes to show how much I use the bots on MTGO) so I appreciate it. I've seen on Ebay where they will sell a set for $120-$145 as a 1-of for the cards, has/does anyone on here do that? Thanks again boss

I personally have never sold any MTGO cards on the net (e-bay). Some make a living doing so, but if that is what you are wanting to do, I would suggest watching the selling trends on e-bay.
