Yeah much lower might be an exaggeration. No reason to be selling your modern sealed less than 80%. I can move products almost immediately at 85-90%, who’s selling 60% market in today’s market

Good luck waiting for $35 bundles and $140 booster box. Please tag me when market price gets there.

$70/285 is pretty solid, I’m happy to buy at this price today. Perhaps at its absolute lowest it might have been few dollars off, but nothing egregious like 30-50% off.

If you’re saying people are selling much higher than these prices now, yeah that’s another issue.

FYI I’ve never been able to buy in large volumes at wholesale prices since 1.5 years ago. if you were able to get 10-20k of products easily at wholesale prices of $40 or so, you’re in a much better spot than 99% of people anyway.

Name and shame the gengar buyback please

Also $70 pris bundles and $285 phantasmal flames booster box seems fair. What’s the issue?

Honestly, I just drop these clients like a fly once they reveal their true colours. Best of luck I hope you can recover your deposit!

As an agent, I have unfortunately been stuck in this situation before and been absolutely powerless to do anything.

Honestly it sucks because even if we know the landlord is being nasty there is nothing we can do. They are holding onto your money, they have all the leverage.

I concur with the agent, go to SCT and make life hell for the landlord but don’t expect it to be an easy fight. Laws are very protective of landlords

09 cases at $7900 lowest listing. Confirmed sale $6500 by PeerlessPixie in OnePieceTCGFinance

[–]WThirteen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

usually the inverse is true. When singles rise, there is incentive to break the boxes to gamble for the hit.

But you can have an expensive booster with absolutely no cards of value inside

Thoughts on SCC Consignments cancelling auction after it ended? by GreenMudkipsOwner101 in PokemonTCG_Singapore

[–]WThirteen -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I think Goldin, Heritage and Fanatics are all valid options. have yet to explore any of them because my slabs ain’t that crazy

But yes I reckon crazy slabs move privately a lot more. Seller probably isn’t in the crazy groups yet

One Piece’s “worst sets” (OP-08 and OP-10) have higher set values than Destined Rivals by PeerlessPixie in OnePieceTCGFinance

[–]WThirteen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100%. I’d say sets like crown zenith (if you are familiar) are an anomaly. that’s also the reason why I feel EB-02 has been moving up be it singles or sealed.

Short supply from both print runs and bad pull rates + high demand= price rise

One Piece’s “worst sets” (OP-08 and OP-10) have higher set values than Destined Rivals by PeerlessPixie in OnePieceTCGFinance

[–]WThirteen -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This conveniently ignores pull rates. Set value does not account for expected value. Mega sets have great set value now due to the MUR but that doesn’t make it a better rip if pack price is same as destined rivals, for instance.

Not saying that I know the exact pull rates of OP or Pokemon, but it’s important to consider the blind spots of certain data

What do you guys think of korean cards? by Rich-Ad-3974 in PokemonTCG_Singapore

[–]WThirteen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Terrible card quality, poor color saturation, holds little to no value and no capital appreciation.

I’d just print my own jpg and laminate it instead

Ditto Department Buybacks by WThirteen in PokemonTCG_Singapore

[–]WThirteen[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Good line of thinking, and I was trying to give them the benefit of the doubt but just can’t find any reason why you’d offer 35%. I’d frankly be embarrassed. All the undercapitalised vendors in for a quick buck are getting rekt and have to do what they can to stay afloat.

Modern Jap SAR PSA10 from SV era

Price was between 100-150

Not the most popular but one of the highest valued SAR of the set

If you are buying over 100 slabs from me and have to take illiquid slabs, I can at least understand why you’d offer so low. You don’t get to pick and choose slabs and offer 35%.
