there are a few things hat I don't understand about the training info section.

Item #1.

I have put Brain age for the DS up as a game in my library. It has the case and instructions. In my library it says I have 62 turns to go. However in the tradinh info (shown below)

Since there is One active to send with the box and instructions (I assume that's me) and one person that requested it with the box and it is not on hold. AND that trade is ready, shouldn't I get an offer to send this one right away and not in 62 turns.

 

Thanks.

In 'Game Available As' there are no copies that are ready.  You probably don't have an open trade slot which is why you are not in the ready column.  Do you have any active incoming/outgoing trades?

I have 2 grades out right now, just waiting for the folks to recieve them. I have no points at this time but one trade credit.

Also, 62 is way more than they show on the screenshot. that's what really confuses me

I took a look at your profile and you don't have a feedback score yet so you can only have 2 open trades at a time I think.  Either way, you don't have an open trade slot and you won't have one until feedback is left for your current trades.

I've been here a while and I have still yet to figure out what turns are...maybe lurk can explain those :P  I just look at the trade info page like you did as I have found that is a better measure of when a trade will occur.

Thanks, I'll just ignore "turns" for now.

 The 62 turns to go basically means that there is 62 other people that have added and currently have this title in their library before you.

 The reason you don't see most of those other people in the trading info box is that most of them will be American's that aren't trading to Canada, so they won't show up.  You'll only see other Canadians and Americans that are trading with Canadians in those numbers.  The 62 turns to go does not take this into account, and it's not an actual reflection of your spot in line.  62 means out of everyone on Goozex.

 Your actual spot in line depends on a bunch of factors such as how many people have the game on hold, if they have enough trade credits and trade slots.

Now if all of those 62 other people had trading to Canada enabled, didn't have the game on hold, had a trade credit available, and wasn't using up all their trading slots, then you would actually be the 62nd person in line.
