Don't know where you heard that LOC trade system is better than ROB, because it really is not.

There's no good way to search for the card that you want, other than post a msg and constantly bumping it. And then go through a lengthly negotiation if you don't have a price in mind.

There's no way currently do any kind of search in MB, and with so many ppl bumping, you can easily missed the thread with a great deal.

In term of price, a few months back when market was more stable, and more ppl updating the wiki, that you'd get a decent ball park by checking the price here. Currently though, wiki price is totally out-of-date. In addition, the market is currently in wide swing, where a day's difference could mean the card just doubled in price.

The only way to search for the price that you want is to read message and get an idea how much people are selling and how much people are willing to pay. There has not been a set price for a few months now.

That wouldn't be so bad for new cards. However, for older cards, you may have harder time to look for proper price. Posting here and asking for price on MB can sometimes get you help, but more often it will get ignore.

I find it easier to just post and ask people to offer, and then see if it fits your need. It's annoying since I personally prefer to have a price listed whether I'm selling or buying, but with the market being as crazy as it is there's no other way to make sure that you don't get screwed.
