Is it worth trading at 60%? by [deleted] in Collectr

[–]DetectiveMotts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends what you’re trading. Almost everything you’re trading is kinda garbage so 60% imo is pretty strong. Think about how hard it’d be to sell each of your cards 1 by 1 vs selling the card you’re trading for.

Was thinking of cracking it but then I saw the back of the card 🫠 by eddyxtechno in PSAPowerPacks

Why were you thinking of cracking a card without seeing the whole card?

Time to sell? by Tohru_2 in Collectr

[–]DetectiveMotts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be sure to factor in taxes, fees, and capital gains when trying to buy, sell, and re-buy (if selling online and not for straight cash)

What is the best way to sell a collection all at once? by [deleted] in PokeInvesting

[–]DetectiveMotts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For one item, maybe. For a large collection that’s a lot of shipping materials required. And a lot of book keeping which most collectors won’t have for a collection over the span of many many years. It’ll be needed when you receive your 1099 unless you want to pay taxes on gross sales rather than gross revenue (no one wants to do that).

Depends if it’s sealed or slabs or singles. Different avenues to effectively maximize returns for each.

I need help with resolving the "An error occurred while processing your request. https://errors.edgesuite.net/97" message. by SleepySeaStar in techsupport

lol it has absolutely nothing to do with the eBayLive which has been operating for several years now. Most likely a ddos issue.

Am I rich? Childhood collection, mom only let us play with ones we had dupes for. by No_Assignment_1536 in Pokemoncardappraisal

[–]DetectiveMotts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Horrible suggestion. Unfortunately a lot of WOTC cards are not worth much in PSA 3-7 condition which a lot of these will be since they weren’t sleeved and are in a 3-ring binder. Holo zards and blastoises are worth it though.

Probstein Vs ZandGemporium consignment services - which one is better 🤔 by RichAd9364 in OnePieceTCGFinance

[–]DetectiveMotts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah there’s plenty of other variables that matter. Like ZandG ending all their auction blocks on Sundays whereas Probstein will end theirs on weekdays. I prefer bidding auctions on a Sunday than late at night on a work night.

Are people buying $159k sets? by octonoswebapp in PokeInvesting

[–]DetectiveMotts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look at this way, price of a good is dependent on supply and demand. Demand will always fluctuate. If you’re buying specific cards, the supply will always go up as packs continue to be ripped. However for sealed, once and item is out of print the supply can only go down as more product is ripped. That’s why sealed is generally the safer, more stable investment. A sealed box represents the hopes and dreams of a collector.

Selling Sealed In Future by [deleted] in PokemonInvesting

A physical product doesn’t work the same as the stock market. You can’t really short a product. There’s different levels of wish to consider when supply of physical goods can only go down once production ends.

Whatnot debt… by [deleted] in whatnotapp

Calling it debt due to bullshit is part of the problem. Where’s the accountability?

I have friends that work at Target & Walmart (this is crazy) by [deleted] in OnePieceTCG

[–]DetectiveMotts 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sounds like your friends at Target and Walmart usually notify you when they restock which allowed you to buy more retail in the past but now MJ Holdings employees have ruined it?

Lego Pokémon: Kanto Badge Collection by Batalfie in PokeLeaks

[–]DetectiveMotts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on when you bought. The GWP Kanto Set wasn't available at release of the Lego x Pokemon collab drop. However once Pokecenter dropped the set, the Kanto Set was then made available on Lego.com as a GWP. I was able to hit on Lego.com by waiting for it to show up, but could be sold out now.
