WeWard ephemeral chapters: the limited-time WeCards

Most WeCards chapters stay around for many months. Ephemeral chapters don't. They appear for an event or a season, and then they are gone.

What an ephemeral chapter is

An ephemeral chapter is a limited-time chapter. It has 9 cards like any other, but you can only collect it for a few weeks. When the time is up it becomes vintage straight away, and trading is the only way to get its cards.

Why their cards are scarce

A regular chapter hands out cards for a long time, so plenty of copies exist. An ephemeral chapter has a short window. Fewer collectors finished it, and fewer spares are around. That is why these are often the most wanted cards on SwapTrek.

What they are worth in a trade

There is no official price. As a starting point, collectors count an ephemeral card at about twice a regular card of the same rarity once the chapter is vintage. An ephemeral #9 can be worth two or three regular #9s.

While an ephemeral chapter is live

• Mark the chapter on My Cards on the first day.
• Trade for its cards early, while lots of collectors still have spares.
• Keep your own spares from it. They only get more wanted.

After it ends

Put the cards you still need on your missing list and check the card pages now and then. New members join SwapTrek every day, and some of them bring spares from old events.
