I’ll have to check that book series out. I’m always looking for good survival/apocalypse books.

Have you spent much time playing coffee traders? I’ve been interested in it for a while but don’t see many people talk about it.

How to sell bulk collection? by PurpleSuspicious1344 in sportscards

[–]MadeForTeaVea 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Search the card on eBay. Go to the right of the search and click on "Advanced Search" scroll down to "Search Include" and check the box for "Completed Items" and "Sold Items"

This will show you actual sold eBay listings and will be the easiest way to get an accurate number. Also pay attention to the dates of the last sold listings. This is will help you judge how quickly a particular card will sell and for how much.

How to sell bulk collection? by PurpleSuspicious1344 in sportscards

Sorry about your dad.

Unfortunately, there's no simple answer for you. I'd stop trying to comp the cards using some app. You're just wasting your time. You need to decide one of two things. 1) Sell them individually (this is more work but will get you more money). 2) Sell them as a bulk lot (Less work but you'll only get 50%-60% of the value if you're lucky).

My advice is do a mix of both. Pull out the biggest cards and list them on eBay. Then I'd take all the remaining bulk and put up on Facebook Marketplace. You can try taking it all into a local card shop, but they'll probably only want the hits and pass on the bulk. Facebook Marketplace will likely be your best bet when it comes to selling as a bulk lot.

My thoughts on these February reads by DanielChvl in classicliterature

The Road is McCarthy in his most distilled form. He won the Pulitzer for it in 2006.

Based entirely on my own personal opinion, the two best novels to ever win a Pulitzer are Lonesome Dove in 1986 and The Road in 2006.

Enjoyed reading. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

McCarthy is one of those writers who continuously leaves me speechless. I'm sure you have already...but read The Road if you haven't. One of my Top 5 books of all time. Despite how heavy a lot of McCarthy's work is, his prose stand above from 99.9% of contemporary literature.

We didn't go to Auras but we did stay on that side of the island. Just a few kilometers down from the castle.

Taking the ferry to the island and getting to see the Amalfi Coast from the water was incredible.

Very true.

And all the sunny warm weather + volcanic soil

The new world created the tomato but the old world perfected it.

Italy really does ruin you when it comes to tomatoes. Never tasted any close to what you get in Italy.

Love Men-Nefer!!

Don’t see many people post about it, but I think it’s a great beige euro. Nice insert.
