I have let the buyer know I am refunding. I already took a major cut just to sell some of these, but I am not paying nearly 5% to PayPal.

Don't do that. That's an amatuer move.

If you really want to sell, is it worth fretting over a couple dollars? Don't let a dime hold up a dollar.

I dropped the price nearly 10% compared to last sale. I am not losing another $5 due to some bogus fee. He ordered the card less than 30 minutes ago, this is not a delayed cancel. Went to print his shipping label immediately.

Selling is considered quitting and everyone here hates quitters I guess.

I have sold 6K this week though and bought 55 Topps Jackie, Hank and Ernie PSA 8's with it.

Most were doubles as well.

Had some auctions end last night.

I'm a big fan of this product as I can continue to buy the cards for the reason I intended - they look cool. I'll buy the ones I like and pass on the rest.

Now of course my Project2020 collection has a few holes in it, but i'll take the cash and buy other cards that I think have better long term value and meaning to my non Project2020 collection

My Topps Project 2020 Sales to Date
Ichiro Baller: $4050
Trout Ermsy: $2400
Griffey Saladeen: $950
Brett Stiff: $909
Williams JK5: $820
Williams Fucci: $811
Henderson Vides: $810
Clemente Cartoon: $810
Gibson Grotesk: $710

Total sales: $12,270
Est. Net After Fees: $11,043

Cost: $162
(First dollar invested 3/25/20)


Net Profit: $10,0881

It’s not the buyers fault...

If you have an issue, take it up with PayPal.

Your PP fee is not the buyers issue. I'd eat the $3.

The smart move is to sell enough to make a decent profit (especially if you bought in early) and hold the rest until the next upward wave hits (next week?). You are playing with house money. The market is on a slight dip...That happens. The value is still there.

I remember when stuff like this used to get flamed and people banned from the forum....

To each his own - It's a really bad business practice. You are asking for a negative. It sure sounds like you wanted to sell. It's it worth losing the sale over $3 dollars? Look at it big picture...not getting caught up on a small difference due to a unknown fee.

Hank
Chipper
Schmidt?
Yount?
Sandberg
Seaver
Carlton
Whitey Ford?
Maris?
Gary Carter?
Acuna/Soto?
Miggy
Puckett
So many others...even someone like a Bob Uecker? Or even some of the stuff from Archives in recent years like Charlie Sheen in "Major League", artists could get creative with that...Robert Redford from "The Natural" would be awesome in a '52-53 style remake...

EDIT---you said NOT---I think it would help...adds to the uniqueness...but they will. Too much of a cash cow.
Of those cards, the only ones I see as iconic are Chipper, Hank, Miggy and Puckett. Maybe the Sandberg could fit, but I personally don’t see any of the others being iconic. The Carlton and Schmidt cards feature multiple plates, so I don’t think those would do well.

I don’t think they should do another set of these. This set will be iconic if it keeps it to 2020.

Both me and the buyer are happy. In the past 30 minutes, someone undercut my price by $5. So he can get it cheaper now.
