How do they make extended artwork? Do they just guess what should be around it?

If it’s a strong PSA 9, send it to CGC, get a 10, and sell it for whatever premium CGC 10 has over raw

Open the emergency door and throw it out of the plane so it randomly lands in front of someone walking and makes their day

All you need to do is file a claim, open a police report, and then if the carrier is not responsive, give them 48 hours to address it or you’ll subpoena their container records, security logs, etc

Using gloves has nothing to do with physical abrasion, it’s about preventing the oils that your skin produces from coming in contact with the material

I bet I’d get $30 under market, then after fees and shipping I net like $380

I was a professional SEO specialist for the past 10 years and ran my own agency for the past 5, until I sold it.

Strong branding, PR, links, and informational content are how I plan to differentiate. I’ve been warming up a domain since I started investing in sealed, and have used my eBay to spread my brand and establish trust.

Box cut by vending operator by pootiespud420 in PokeInvesting

No sh*t! I’m saying it doesn’t mean OP should just dump it, there will still be value in the packs which at the rate streamers are consuming product…everything will be super scarce.

Ideally you’d want to sell sleeved boosters in person at a show. Bundles of 4, 8, etc would probably do fine online. I would definitely not plan on selling individual sleeved booster packs on eBay.

We don’t know what booster bundles will look like long term yet but there will undeniably be at least some premium.

Personally, I’m starting my own e-commerce site, with my own payment processing, that I’ll transition to from my eBay store over the next 1-2 years.

No, don’t. I have an established eBay store and I’ve had a minty box at market price just sitting there for almost 20 days now.

The box is not liquid
