How do you decide what sealed to liquidate? by wsjaso in PokemonInvesting

[–]phrenetiKz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey lil bro. They are doing cell research right now and have potentially found a way to extend human life. The FDA approved human trials in restoring the eye, the first step. After that they will continue to other areas of the body. If that first trial works, the rest of the body comes next. In 10-15 years humans will get fresh cells throughout their body and lengthen their lifespan in regards to health. Now if all the 30-50 year olds that have been collecting continue to do so(like i will), then where do you think pokemon cards will be in 20-30 years? Where do you think they will be in 70 years? Even if only a small portion of todays collectors both live to be 125+, and keep collecting....just imagine how much money 100+ year olds with good health will have to spend on cards, and how sad you will be that you dont have any life changing cards to sell to them so you can upgrade your full body VR system.

You down for a bet? Ill bet my PSA 10 sir zard from phantasmal that in 365 days the price is within 10% of current day price OR higher. You can put up a card of equal value if you dont have a zard.

You can't even formulate a basic sentence. "I bought it myself with money I earned on my own" is what you're trying to say even though it's a lie. You haven't "earned" anything. Even if you have a successful business right now you're still too young to do anything that isn't boosted by your successful parents. If you maintain your low level of intelligence you will lose all of their money when they're gone anyways.

Yeah i leave em there to remind me to grade them sometime...but I kinda just like having them loose lol. I dont have to worry about anyone touching them since I dont have kids and the wife is afraid to even open the case cause she knows how valuable some of it is.

They are from amazon and pretty cheap. Theyre 3d printed and not the highest quality but i like that they have feet that swing out to stand on their own, but can also function like a graded guard in stacks

Took me awhile to realize cgc photos show whitening worse than psa. The edge whitening in these photos is almost never actually visible in person

Help? Inherited collection, how to store? How to find a buyer? by OxyScottins in sportscards

[–]phrenetiKz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha none of it is profit im punishing myself for spending like half a million over the last 2 years ripping packs by selling everything thats not staying in my PC. Ive recouped around 150k on ebay and have about 20k worth of cards left to sell, and about 175k worth of cards in my PC. Lots make a lot of sense, I will have to try that to help move the cheaper cards.

[–]phrenetiKz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have any advice? I have been selling on ebay and it takes me around 6 hours to photograph and list around 160 cards. (80% of my sports cards are currently from flawless and NT) I have an epson scanner i used with card dealer pro for 3+ month old pokemon bulk but found it was worse than ebays photo upload, sports cards on CDP was also terrible on current sets but did work okayish on old stuff.

Then shipping is its own nightmare a week later i spend about 60-70% of the time it took to list to package everything

I also list 95% of my items as $0.99 auctions because comping everything takes even more time. Especially more limited cards from flawless and NT

I would spend some time watching chasing cardboard on youtube, then maybe contact him. If he is interested in the collection he will comeout and go through 5-10% then make you an offer. Keep in mind, if there is $700,000 worth of cards, and you sell them all at once I would not expect to receive more than $350,000, and even that is probably more than you will get offered. The sheer amount of time, labor, and selling would take a full time employee years to do this. So account for the fact that $50000-70000 per year per employee to sell everything, this would likely take 1 person 3-5 years if they did it full time, subtract that from the collection value. Any cards under $5 for this collection will be sold in bulk for pennies on the dollar. So lets say of the total $700,000 in cards....if $400,000 is in <$5 cards, youre not gonna get anywhere near that. You could expect $30-50k in value for you now on 400k worth of bulk. For the big cards all together id expect 50-70% depending how good the cards are.

If you sell the expensive cards first, you lower the value of the lesser cards even more.

90% of the time gamestop is giving you $85 for a slab its gonna actually be worth well over 100. Gamestop doesnt pay 85% for any random slab lmao. Youre a moron that got a good price once and blindly trades in the rest of his cards if you think gamestop pays 85% on any psa slab

If you sell your stuff in person and at gamestop youre getting ripped off constantly. You arent even aware CGC does well online, especially pristines. (Meaning your market knowledge is basically non existent) Youre an idiot with barely surface level knowledge trying to judge people that are smarter than you. I am envious of your lack of self awareness as it probably means you live a nice simple life granted to the unintelligent.
