Is PWCC losing some of their luster Jesse? Basically, they are just listing on Ebay, the same as you and I can do. Why not list the item yourself and save the $488?

I would never stick up for PWCC. Saying that I do not understand your post Bobby. PWCC charges 9%. eBay and PayPal fees are around 13% so how could anybody have saved any $? It seems to me the seller would be saving the hassle of listing plus shipping charges plus saving $ on fees.

I believe that max fee for a card on ebay is $250 (please correct me if I'm wrong). Plus 3% for paypal would be 375 or so in fees, or only 100 bucks less than I would get if I could realize the same price as pwcc. I highly doubt I could, and even if it were possible it would be worth the 100 bucks not to have to deal with people, returns, chargebacks, etc.

I've never had a problem with prompt payouts and just find it easier along with netting more than I could on my own. I have used invest in baseball with cards I did not want to roll the dice on at auction. I've also sold a few cards on net54. I've been pleased with the results each time. Selling on my own is definitely as hassle though.

Thanks everyone for the replies.
I have sold cards on eBay myself and through PWCC, but at this point much of my collection is memorabilia and eBay is tricky for items like that. Auctions often don't get the eyeballs and BIN's can sit forever. (I know because I've been able to buy some really nice items on eBay for far below auction house prices...) When it comes to selling at the auction houses it sounds like the key thing is to negotiate in advance, particularly if an item is in high demand and/or does not require much work (it is already authenticated and is a relatively standard item...) Can someone explain (or point me in the direction) of what a resale permit is? Is it something that as a collector who also sometimes sells items can reasonably get? If I understood correctly resellers don't pay sales tax. Is that correct? Thanks |

Yes it has, so unless your item is going to sell for more than 12k, it is cheaper to use a consignor.
