Thanks!

There is a huge thread about Sportlots a few threads down.

That said, I've never found sellers to be very responsive on that site. Sorry to those here that I know are good sellers and responsive. On the whole, it's not good.

If you got to the Preferred Sellers tab on the top bar, you will find that those on that page (from right to left) are generally more active as they have had the most sales over the past months and continue to have good feedback ratings. That was always helpful for me when buying!

I've used him in the past, he's a good seller.
I'd hit him up again if I were you.
Is there even a way to contact a seller if not for a shipping issue of a card you buy?

Yes, from the Details page of the card once you've searched it up.

Super slow month on Sportlots. I'm at -.69 cents due to a seller claiming he didn't receive a card last month. It was a $10 Shaq card so it wiped out what little sales I had. People must be focused on Christmas. I was averaging about $85 a month and it dried up overnight. Hopefully things will pick up after Christmas. Best of luck and happy holidays dudes!

Anyone have any experience with "ELWAY007"?

Westlake · 01-05-2022, 07:31 PM

Anyone else busting out the gate in 22? I've done 50% of my December total already in January.

nam812 · 01-05-2022, 08:03 PM

Definitely stronger in January for me too. December was borderline pathetic for me.

Can be a little pricey at times but he'll have stuff no one else has and everything I've purchased from him arrived securely. I've purchased items ranging from 25 cents up to $120. Most recent purchase I made from him was July 2021 for what it's worth.

I bought a $60 card from him at the beginning of December and he said he shipped with tracking but never uploaded tracking and said he lost the slip. He ended up refunding, but the price on the card was pretty good so I didn't know if he just had sellers remorse or if anyone had any experience like that from him.

nam812 · 01-06-2022, 06:01 PM

Today i got my inventory up over 70,000 cards, and i know that lots of sellers have 10x and 20x that amount of cards in their inventory, but it blows my mind when I stop to think that I have actually sorted 70,000 cards into number order.

I can't get the site to load today.

Sales have been on par with November and December but both were already strong months.

I am going to free box shipping for a few days to see how that may impact sales.

It's funny you mentioned this because I have been thinking about this for a little while too, but I'm thinking about doing only orders of 26+.

bryanscs · 01-09-2022, 11:58 AM

USPS Shipping is increasing today, so don't forget to adjust your rates accordingly.

jamcas997 · 01-10-2022, 02:52 AM

Well I have been on sports lots for over 3 years now over 2000 cards at one time for inventory and maybe had less than 75 total sales with 3 neutrals on items less than $3 with shipping and no sales since August. I figured I would go on and see what was going on and saw the 3rd neutral and that was the last straw for me with SL. When I was on it as NAXCOM from 2005-2008 I never had an issue and had over 1000 items sold. I went with SL just to put up some cheap inventory and all 3 neutrals were from PWE sales also. I have ended all items there and will move them to my ebay where they will have better visibility and I have a way to track PWEs with SE. Good luck to those who stay.

December was brutal. I average about $80 a month. Only $27 in December. January 13th and I'm at $95 already!

I've started breaking up my Bowman Chrome/Draft/etc. sets and adding those over the the last week. Only a few small sales based on what I added recently but I'm hoping it will draw more activity. I'm at 145,000 cards. I have a buddy who is looking to dump a closet full of 3200 count boxes from the late 90's to roughly 2012. I need to see what all he has before deciding if I want any of it or not.

timber09 · 01-14-2022, 11:51 AM

Yeah - I had similar experience to other posts here. December wasn't completely off but it was certainly well below average. Now January is off like a shot and I've almost exceeded December sales halfway through the month.

Tom Oates · 01-18-2022, 12:25 AM

Shazaam! I have a buyer who pops an order about $25 every now and then as he works on bowman sets. I had two orders from him this month so I was very happy. Today he popped a $330 order!

On a side note, I'm staring at $40k in snow related damage to my property so this really helps offset part of my deductible. Pandemic, evacuated for a forest fire close to my house, and now snowmagedon 2022 with no power for twelve days. The last four months have been ROUGH!

nam812 · 01-18-2022, 12:04 PM

Does anyone know how to get a new set added? It looks unlicensed from the front, but the back shows that it's licensed.

On the orange bar, go to sell, stores, request a new set.

Thanks for the info Bryan, but the set i want to add is from 1994, and the "select a year" toggle button only goes back as far as 2003 for some reason.

bryanscs · 01-19-2022, 09:26 AM

Just pick a year, it doesn't matter. Then write in 1994 on the set name.
