This is why I don’t sell graded on eBay :)

[QUOTE=JoeAdam;17074586]This is why I don’t sell graded on eBay :)[/QUOTE]

I sell both, but I normally am too lazy/don't want to wait to get graded stuff back. So if someone sees a raw card that I have that looks good, they are going to reap the reward of grading it themselves.

Just from my own way i sell this is flawed. I buy graded to invest and i open a ton of repack products from Break King and Leaf. So I have a lot of graded cards for sale. I rip a ton of wax. I have never once submitted a card for grading and sell raw all the time. I know I have had a lot of happy buyers who buy raw from me.

Anyone else surprised that the poorly listed 2018 TCU auto has been sitting on eBay for $4,200 this long? I get that it’s raw with some red flags. Wasn’t planning on making a move for it but if I get a $4,200 stimulus check it would be like getting it free.

If you don’t have one, this may be a $650ish “shot” ?

$255 with an hour 30 left...

Not my card.

Said it the other day, the GEM rate on these is very good. Obviously I’m biased because I pulled it myself... But this one is my favorite Soto card in my collection!

I’d wager it’s a 2k PSA10 now that the first sold for just shy of $1,800

Now go tell these paypal investigators to take a hike!

This will be over $1k

[QUOTE=lauriontj;17075199]This will be over $1k[/QUOTE]

I’m predicting $850ish.. Pretty comparable to a raw HMT55 pink as it stands today.

I didn't even know but apparently you have to go to the resolutions center and fill out some information about the transaction, which I just did. It should be resolved soon. Thanks again

Thank you Khal and Towery.

Lol, still would have been a great deal!

[QUOTE=JoeAdam;17075445]Thank god. Was nervous I was going to accidentally win it lol[/QUOTE]

I guess with the PSA price jump there is a premium on already graded product at the moment. $700 is still a pretty hefty sum compared to where we were just a couple months ago!

Just not enough meat on the bone at $700 for the amount of risk. $700 + 8% tax for me would be like $750, $300 to grade, if it sells for $1,800 you'd pay about $250 in fees and shipping which leaves you with $500 IF you get a 10. If you get a 9 or worse you're out the $300 and the reselling fees. Cards in this range are going to become tougher to flip.

Yeah, will be interesting to see how the PSA price hike will affect the market.

Will the PSA 10 base cards command a premium since less people will be willing to stomach the high fees = lower pops (relatively)?

I still think PSA should have hired more people so they could actually hit their stated turn around times and/or LOWERED prices to drive the stake into BGS and then they'd be able to basically run the show.

I was $48 dollas off.

Maybe the slow start was perfect timing for the buyer...nice card.

I think the populations will remain relatively unchanged, it's the speed to market that will change. People are still going to submit the key rookies but at the $25 level because the $100 level doesn't make sense. So it will take months before the base 10's start hitting the market but it will be the same flood of them once they come.
