I know I’ve only made 20 percent more on flips this year than any other year on COMC since 2018. And I still, have a month to go. Disaster.

But more interestingly, why did you hop on and express your random hot take on the hobby to the world? You are mad about something, but not saying it.
Thanks for explaining that to an anthropologist. My guess is my penis is too small.

One of the absolute fews. Hope the rest of the year ends even stronger for you.

By the end of the year I will have doubled my comc sales from last year. And my margins are better.

Me too. But I'm still sticking by my statements. Flippers flipping to flippers. I'm trying to get rid of my stock for good, however. Not really looking to purchase more, even in bulk, to sell for a long time, if ever again.

What are you actually upset about? Can you be more specific? If it's flippers, then can you tell us more about how that affects you?

I have found using comc as a past time enjoyable. I have gone the opposite route of quantity over quality but it still adds up. I wish the comc app wasnt so slow part of the time. Ill fall asleep scrolling 2 cent cards I dont own to buy. Its the best sleep method Ive tried so far.

it is pretty easy to make money flipping cards on comc

I'd say more people make money than those take a loss

Yeah… that’s the fun of using COMC. Build up the credit from sales and buy something nice for you PC. Also it’s easy to slab through them. I think many of people’s biggest issues with the website is their recent backlog of shipping out cards and processing new cards they receive. Nothing that I’ve encountered with the website indicates the average user is losing money selling on COMC or that they might be headed toward bankruptcy. Quite the opposite actually.

My 2025 sales through COMC are already 170% of my 2024 total with Black Friday week and all of December (which was a strong month last year) to go.

Yes, very easy. You can either buy on the site and reprice or send it stuff you pick up elsewhere. I'm 99% the latter (except this coming week where bargains tend to more more widely available). I'm also starting to pick up more of their eBay auction items that I can bulk ship down the road. Can also buy, then grade and flip. No shortage of options. I've been on there since 2015 and mainly just sending my $5 and under cards to them that add up over time. It's so easy, even a caveman go do it.

Total Sales $73,632.26
Items Sold 35,392

I'm guessing the Black Friday week ahead will add 700-1000 to each in spite of only having ~6000 cards left in port. I've been shipping them around 300 cards every few weeks but the stuff is selling about as fast as I get it.

I’m doing 15% this week and plan on using funds to buy some cool wishlist stuff on COMC as well as slab some stuff.

Am I going crazy? I don't see a choice to submit to auction and get paid with store credit.

Only see Direct-To-Cash via PayPal and Direct-To-Cash via ACH, Wire or Check.

Are you in the submission wizard? Regular auctions that pay out in COMC store credit are selectable in the dashboard from the card dropdown menu.

This is one week I blow shat out not really caring if I make any money on the sales since I reinvest the sales into other marked down items. I'm 50% off this week and will be 60% next Monday. Most of my cards are already on the low end. I already picked off 33 cards from my watch list.

I find it impressive that some sellers offer a 60% discount and most the cards are still priced well above the lowest undiscounted price

Whatever, sales looking good so far

I didn’t buy the $250 credit but when you click on a card does it give you access to it if you hit the chart icon?

I don’t see anything different than what you usually get with the COMC points.

Sales are very solid so far. I've sold 39 cards already. I did a bulk edit to ensure all my prices are lowest on-site and I'm doing 35% off all week and on Cyber Monday on those lowest prices. Good luck everyone!
