Ebay Sales Down - Page 131

Each group is partitioned into 25 toploaders. I've got two groups full and a start on the third. I'll add a little at a time until I get to 300 and then let'er rip.

I love this idea, definitely going to steal it lol. I'm going to do the same style but scan the toploaded cards and run them through my software so buyers can see each card in the lot. Not sure if this will help or hurt sales but we'll see...

This might be a killer alternative for the cards I usually send to COMC.

Your idea also got me thinking about the possibility of creating "eBay ready" lots where both the cards and the eBay Upload CSV are included in the sale so the buyer could immediately list everything they just purchased in a lot as singles to the eBay store. It's probably a stupid idea, but I can't get it out of my head.

I can see people wanting to buy this if they are ramping up their store and don’t have any type of software for listing. Also would be good to have suggested price of each card so they can value the lot. Granted prices can change fast.

FWIW, I don’t use a scanner but I do take group photos of all of the cards in my listings. My tactic is to have the first group shot contain 25 of the better cards, and then mix in more of the lower quality cards in the subsequent photos. I present a mix of sports in every photo. This seems to have worked well for me so far.

Thx for sharing this idea. Could you send us a link to one of your completed sales of these boxes so we can see how you describe it?

Can you drop a photo of what the box looks like packed up? Curious how you are shipping these? Are you just stacking toploaders loose in the box?

In response to the last two questions, scrolling up less than 20 posts followed by a modicum of effort will reveal the answers. If you can’t manage that I’m not sure what to tell you.

Thanks. I search your store "Cullman Sportscards" but do not see any of the boxes for sale. Would you be so kind to place the link or us of the boxes or the last completed sale?

I'm not the questionee but I did load up a box and topped it off with some junk slabs. I'd estimate around 400 cards in toaploaders in there. Could probably squeeze in another 100 or more if I skipped the slabs. I might need to add more photos. Plenty of clicks but no watchers yet.

Was more time consuming putting together than expected. I don't know if I'll bother building another from scratch unless it's another 40 below wind chill weekend.

Dragonman · 01-22-2025, 05:44 PM

I put lots together like that (less cards usually around 200 cards)...Ive probably sold 60-70 of them all sell between $100 and $225

A few things
1. Run an auction start it at .99 you will probably get more than the $129 you are asking
2. Get a few jerseys and autos in there so the words Jersey and Auto is in the title description
3. You need to show some more pictures than 25 or 30 cards
4. Get a couple better cards thrown in there...I put a plain white Justin Herbert Jersey card (probably a $6 card) in one of my recent lots and it sold for $200
4. Take card show out of the title get Numbered, Auto and Jersey in there

Well, I had a fun day. I dropped my kids off at school and entered my store to find an inch of water in the floor in the back rooms. A pipe had froze and burst in the wall between my business and an adjoining business. Fortunately, insurance will cover the loss and none of my best stuff was touching the floor.

The connection to this thread is that I looked through boxes I haven’t dug through in literally a year or two. Geez, i thought, i can build these medium flat rate boxes for YEARS.
