Nah, I wait for the sale to start and craft them.
The sale cards don't sell for as much as the initial event cards did. I remember making $200 in about 30 mins that first sale selling off all my event cards, but since people know that they'll drop in price toward the end of the sale (when they disappear), no one will pay those prices anymore. If Valve really wanted to make more money off them (and drive prices up), they'd add an event that required a particular badge level to enter.
I just craft what I have and buy whatever I need to finish the last badge on the last couple days when the cards are 7 or 8 cents each. :X

I'm having a problem with my steam inventory atm :(
Whenever I try to show the advanced filters in steam items or community, it says "This inventory is not available at this time. Please try again later."

Allow it to fully load before searching or opening the advanced filters.

26 cards - 2 foil. Nice.

5 cards crafted.
I can't trade or sell them until day 22 of this month.
So great ¬¬

This is probably because the sale starts on the 22nd, and if you look at your queue during those days like any other sale, you can get up to 3 free cards per day if the old patterns of Steam sales continues (almost guaranteed considering the track record =D)

I've read that the problem is that I crafted them using cards that I've just bought, so the change/sell restrictions of those cards are transfered to the crafted ones.
Next summer I won't make the same mistake again.

Ah, that would also be another reason. However, It kind of works out that both the delay and start of sale match up to be the same day. At least you'll get the exp for it when the time comes, right? Unless you're just going for the pure profits?

I have always crafted those sale badges. No more, they are completely useless. (As are all the badges anyway).
In the end it always costs money (and yes I consider time = money as well).
My inventory is empty and I have not many games to farm left, lucky me as I wont get tempted this time.

I've been buying cards and crafting badges (for games), and mysterious cards are dropping fine so far.

last summer sale I crafted around 250 badges without getting any foils.
