COMC Black Friday Questions

trogdor · 11-29-2013, 12:04 AM

When do the sales start? 12 EST or west coast time?

rtcrules · 11-29-2013, 12:04 AM

I thought it was west coast time.

So we have to wait until 3 AM East Coast time?

:turkey:

Soxrule111 · 11-29-2013, 12:05 AM

I was wondering the same thing. It doesn't look like East coast though.

phillies347 · 11-29-2013, 12:06 AM

Dang, Ive been waiting for 12AM ET and now I find out its 3AM ET ughhhhhh to sleep or wait it out?

IMO that will kill a lot of business. I think last year it was east coast time

I agree, but personally I think they have handled it somewhat poor so far. Not the clearest on their descriptions.

Been thinking of selling off everything and not using COMC anymore. Business has honestly been bad and don't see it getting any better the way it's being run right now with all the hidden fees and what not

rtcrules · 11-29-2013, 12:13 AM

They're on the west coast and I thought the spring sales started at 3AM. I cant remember last years. Im at work so I'll be able to go regardless of start time.

Don't forget to switch to Simplified Buying Mode to take advantage of the free postage for cards that you plan on having sent to you.

Yea their fees are TERRIBLE when you look into it. I pay 25 cents to list, you pay 25 cents to ship it if you buy it on top of the $3 shipping. Plus, If I want to have something back to me that I sent in I need to pay another 25 cents on it.... Seriously...

I basically sold out and just shopping when I find good deals. Once I blow my credit Ill probably stop using the site also.

I'm planning on just trying to flip a bunch of the stuff I buy so I am in reselling mode. I still see all the discounts right? It's not really free shipping though. You pay the .25 per card

You'll still see the discounts and I would recommend staying in reselling mode and pay the quarter out the door in case you change your mind on an item.

Thanks. That's what I'm planning to do. What do you hope to see on sale tonight?

rtcrules · 11-29-2013, 12:54 AM

It will probably be items for flipping. I highly doubt I'll be able to find 20+ Browns PC items to ship. Maybe I'll find enough to pick up some baseball inserts to get me to the 20 items mark. I saved up a dozen items hoping for shipping discounts but they only apply to items bought over the weekend.

This is what might bother me. I have a 100+ ready to ship that I waited until this weekend to ship out. If I buy 50+ items this weekend why cant they send them all together for "free" I hope they do.

trogdor · 11-29-2013, 03:06 AM

The set up for the Black Friday sale this year is awful. Not even worth my time staying up this late

rtcrules · 11-29-2013, 03:39 AM

You really have to go fishing for the deals, but I'm thrilled I got a PC Haden auto #/10 for $6. If I walk away with nothing else this weekend I've already came out good.

superjames27 · 11-29-2013, 03:57 AM

I just put 100 into my account and I do not see it at all or even pending , yikes , its been over 10 minutes now and still nothing , but I did receive the paypal receipt already
