IMO it is better to just sell since if you sell you could buy cards from another set and for cheaper craft badges?
What do you think?

Don't sell. If you sell, sell after summer sale completes and cheap copies are off market :P

That will only work if those cards still have a use / are still there a while after the event though.

Any cards I get from voting near the end, I'm saving for the market, and putting them at a reasonably high price. Somebody will pay it eventually, and my wallet will be full.

Since cards for Steam Summer Getaway Badge won't be available after the sell ends it is best to do the opposite of what you say.

Source?

Yes, I'd like to see this source too.

There isn't one. It's my common sense tells me that if the means of obtaining something goes away that something won't be available thereafter. Hence the advise to save summer sell cards rather then regular ones.

But they might disappear.

They won't, people spent money on them. In the worst case scenario they'll turn into mystery cards.

This is what I think will happen, since these are summer getaway cards, I think you will only have until the sale ends to craft your badge.

"Will I be able to craft the Summer Getaway badge after the sale?
Yes, you’ll be able to collect the cards and craft the badge after the sale, but only with cards that have already dropped. When the sale ends, there will be no new Summer Getaway card drops."

28 € steam wallet for selling roughly half of my cards, foil cards, backgrounds and emoticons since beta. It was worth it for me :)

if you vote for all possible voting things, you can get the badge for just voting. I will hopefully be able to do that, otherwise I'll buy the last card I need with metal, or something, if I missed a voting.

Selling all the way - I'd rather get a game than a badge, even if it's a cheap one

i'm wondering if they can still be used to craft the summer badge after the sale is over..
if so, their value could rise

The badge is for the summer, like the last year badge. You can't make it, if you missed the summer.

Last year's badge wasn't crafted from anything.

True, but the point was that you can't make that badge after the sale...

The point was that you couldn't make that badge even during the sale. You could only earn it. Today we have completely different situation.

I doubt valve would delete everyone's Getaway cards after the summer sale is over, you'd probably still have them in your inventory and be able to sell/trade them, just not receive any new ones randomly like during the sale.

agree with this. Valve is making way too much $$ from tax in marketplace to just delete everyones cards.

That's logical. Perhaps, too logical.

Sell right now, buy them back in a week to craft the badge. Prices are going down constantly.

If you click on the badge on the badge page it will show you which of your friends have the cards you're missing. That way you can trade with them.

I'm completely clueless about this system. I mean, I just got the Tomb Raider card for voting. I'd sell it, but I'm not sure if selling cards is even profitable at this point.

You got the card for free. It's profitable even if you sell it for a penny.

I chose to sell my getaway cards and buy Dungeons of Dredmor for the dollar i got. i was planning on buying the set after the sale ends but even if they do disappear i don't really care about the badge so i don't think i'll end up regretting my decision, i'll be too busy playing Dungeons of Dredmor xD

I crafted 1 card just so it would be like the previous sales where you get a badge.

Is there any incentive to craft after level 10?

just the thing that after every 10 levels, you have 20% more chance to get a booster pack.

"The cards will not disappear and you'll still be able to craft the badge after the sale" - confirmed by Valve

So selling them now is a bad idea.

I see cards are going cheaper and cheaper all the time, sell them while they're still worth something, and you'll have enough to re-buy the whole set later.

Nah, you should actually keep them, as they are not going much cheaper than they already are. I would keep them and wait a few months and the prices will start to rise.
