John, I think vintage has dried up because (1) with all of the eBay fees and games (like charging a transaction fee on shipping and sales tax) it is close to the same price to consign to an AH without the eBay headaches, (2) as prices seemingly go up every week it makes sense for part-timers on eBay to hold their cards unless/until they need the cash flow, and (2) it is impossible to replace graded inventory with any expediency owing to the cost and backlogs at the TPGs.

Yup. ebay is an absolute wasteland for vintage now. So many pages of "auctions" with a minimum bid 3x what anyone would pay 🙃

Those are wife listings: wife says I have to sell some stuff but I don't want to so I will list it at 3x market and then tell her it is listed and waiting for a buyer. I keep my cards, she STFU, peace in my house.

Funny and clever

But definitely funny

Regardless those eBaybucks for most of us do not add up and selling on eBay as others mentioned has gotten so expensive

Does anyone think EBAY messed up somehow with this as the calendar turned to 2022? I did not earn 1% on a later calendar 2021 purchase but I see that I could earn 1% on items now. I have not purchased anything today. It just seems really weird that suddenly 1% is back.

They terminated the 1% program last year (March 2021).

Scanning EBAY "Community" there seem to be folks who did actually receive this 1% but I have found nothing official that this has been reinstated.

That explains the 3x. What about the 5x through 10x listings on commodity cards?

The 5x and 10x listings must be for those sellers that need to cover the mistress as well

For Chase Freedom card holders, they have a 5% cash back promotion on ebay purchases for the entire first quarter of 2022. So it goes through March 31. I believe it is only good on the Freedom Flex or the original Freedom, not the Freedom Unlimited.
