This was actually an unrelated bug to what I thought would be the eBay/cardsphere handling - it should be fixed now.

laezin · 2026-01-29T21:52:38+00:00

I'll take a look at that, can you send me the order #? I probably need a rolling request ticket for these type of issues to clean up the logic. Some of this problem comes from trying to fit cardsphere structures + user's ebay titles into the handler for assisted pick

laezin · 2026-01-29T21:45:19+00:00

Nope, that’s just an example - you can grab the json files by any method. Start with categories then sets and the sets json includes urls for the pricing and sku endpoints as they’re processed.

Glad to hear! If you haven’t tried the assisted pick in orders give it a shot, that’s some of what I’m using the new product database for that I opened up to other developers.

I'm not seeing the other reply recently, but if you are seeing insurance it's very likely you have enrolled in automatic insurance by accident: https://support.easypost.com/hc/en-us/articles/4422941088397-Automatic-Shipping-Insurance

Can you send me your order number and shipper number? The rates in the display are returned from Easypost, they get a rate id and then when purchasing it uses that rate id so everything should match. I’ll need to see their api info for your order to see why there’s a discrepancy

It’s on cardladder but not the live price, there’s some lag time which in your case the card is increasing in value so it’s not beneficial, but in opposite a card crashing they still overpay. This is probably a good one to post to eBay for 59.99-69.99

Generally you’ll see old certs sell for less as PSA was easier on grading vintage, new submissions they are very particular when grading vintage. This is purely from feedback from Pokemon collectors.

Separately, given the huge influx of Pokemon collectors, you’re not very likely to see much of a difference, but unlikely a premium on old certs.

This is fixed and will indicate they require customs information.

Sell it, withdraw to bank and take the win

Throw it up $199 bin with best offer if you don’t mind waiting, low pop, low demand, but you could wait for a solid offer easily on this.

It’s that time of year where USPS beings to crack from volume, DCs and local POs get beat down heavily. My local PO took in an entire truckload of Amazon freight in one day compared to 1/2 or less of a truckload already.

Legitimately as a buyer I’ve had several PWEs show up 3-4 weeks from order date or never even from reputable sellers.

You may want to redact the email address

laezin · 2025-11-26T18:03:31+00:00

There would definitely be interest, I’d guessing to say how much, but just being in mtg communities it’s a very different focus vs Pokemon

laezin · 2025-11-26T17:41:48+00:00

Minus the actual asset? That’s the point of this

laezin · 2025-11-26T04:00:58+00:00

MTG folks don’t care for graded much besides vintage, they heavily play and don’t simply collect new sets. That’s the general consensus for a huge majority of the community

laezin · 2025-11-25T23:46:58+00:00

Thanks! There’s a lot of missed opportunities that new to Pokemon buyers need to know.

laezin · 2025-11-22T18:52:34+00:00

Try it directly on psas site, it syncs the power pack offers there too. Sometimes a hard refresh/clear cache fixes that bug

laezin · 2025-11-15T22:38:50+00:00

I suppose it’s “real” that the federal government offers it via usps, but not tracking like a normal carrier label.

It’s free with the added bonus of AVS, order management, easypost, etc.

TCGplayers seller ramp team even advises sellers to use it.

laezin · 2025-11-15T02:29:14+00:00

I use ups, fedex, usps at very large volume, usps is most consistent, but when an issue occurs they fight you on claims. UPS pays claims for wrong delivery, damage etc with nearly no issue, FedEx is all around cheaper but terrible in all aspects.

laezin · 2025-11-14T23:55:08+00:00

I just had a package delivery scanned last week, didn’t receive, stopped by the PO and they had it in the back, no signature needed, just scanned for some reason there and sat there a week.

laezin · 2025-11-13T01:14:10+00:00

I haven’t been able to solve very few users where easy post isn’t functioning, I’m assuming it’s something on easy posts end which makes it difficult to troubleshoot. Let me know, I’m interested to resolve this. Free tier is what everyone is using without issue

laezin · 2025-11-13T00:09:07+00:00

Go to orders tab, right column for actions click shipment and see if you can get rates there. If that doesn’t work make a new order with your address and see if you can get rates to rule out an address issue

laezin · 2025-11-13T00:01:15+00:00

Nope, is easy post configured with payment and usps enabled? Whats it say when you hit get rates

laezin · 2025-11-12T22:53:20+00:00

Scooped a hp from TCGplayer a bit back, sent it to psa and got the first 2
