COMC advise wanted

ckcardz · 12-29-2011, 01:08 AM

i have a Ton of stuff i want to send in. mainly RC's, #d, Inserts etc. my questions are:

Is there a minimum BV i should send in? like anything lower than $5 no good?
Any really good products you think people would want on COMC more than others?

Generally people try and keep it above 5$, but me I don't mind selling cards for less even if I don't make anything on them after fees. I like to be able to offer cards for cheaper than other people and they aren't doing me any good just sitting here.

It doesn't hurt anything, really, to send in cards lower than $5 in book value, but I wouldn't send in a bunch of base cards, especially from previous years. But some people (me included) use COMC to fill in refractor sets, insert sets, etc. I like the fact that I can find some cards for a buck or two on there, and then combine shipping. But as someone who has a bunch of refractors up, just know they will move slowly and you won't get a whole lot for them. Things can have a tendency to sit there for a while, even if you are at eBay pricing. If you want to move them quickly, eBay is your best bet. If you don't mind hanging onto them for a while until they sell, I like COMC personally.

Like I said, don't send in all your base cards, but inserts, rookies, refractors, etc, there's nothing wrong with sending those in.

i think people like chrome rcs, autos, or numbered rookies of people with a low number of cards available. people like the players who are HOT at the moment as i was able to sell some john skeletons and some yu darvish chromes on there, but for the most part i dont get too many offers on my items.

what i usually do is check to see how many they have already and how much the lowest price is.

if its below like .75 or $1 its not really worth sending it in.

I send in huge lots so it takes a while to check it all but I learned after the first time or 2. Selling for .5 and then getting 50% offers every day gets annoying cause u kind of have to take em.
