"Recommend against" might be too general. Selling might be a good strategy depending on your goals (e.g. whether you're trying to win this time versus selling for coins to hold, and use the coins to win next time). The value of these things can be highly volatile. If you've got the last card needs for someone else's win, sky's the limit (or at least say 2000 coins based on past wins). But on the flipside, value becomes 0 if you hold too long and a win happens. Most recently, the last auctioned victory card went for 629 coins (which was probably artificially low due to the risk of gaining the other, much less valuable auction item). The top bid in the current auction (for one VC) is 1717 coins, with multiple bids higher than 1000. At the very least, if you're selling you'd *definitely* want to consider multiple offers for a single card, hugely multiplied if you're thinking of selling your focus grant ability. -G.
