How can this consignor make money??

Just got done looking at the Lelands auction online. How much grading fees does this consignor have? Does it really pay off to get all these graded? |

You're right, it makes no sense. Even if it averaged $5 a card, that's still 10K in grading fees. Maybe the consignor never expected to sell them. |

The thing is a lot of them are secondary grading companies not PSA. Sure the PSA are featured but there might have been 20 or 50 of those...even so he still loses unless he had some kind of serious promo from PSA on the grading. |

What would be the best promo that PSA ever did? I can't see it being under 4.00? Plus what would be the minimum for the tier 2 grading companies? Maybe 3-5 dollars? |

Too bad the slabs aren't worth the $5 so you could pull the cards out and insert something else in. |

Perhaps the consignor bought them graded and en bulk. A lot of it looks like the kind of stuff sold on Shop at Home. |

The consignor deals in bulk. And when I say bulk, I mean he has several warehouses full of stuff. His business is not to sell to people like you and me, he sells to major companies that in turn, package the material to sell to retail outlets. The material in this particular lot is the leftovers of the probably 10,000+ cards that he had originally. He had moved onto other products and wanted to move this bulkly lot make space for more material. I have no idea what he paid to get them graded, but he probably has zero dollars left into lot offered so that at this point, it is irrelevant |

Where did you get your information from. Did you physically inspect the lot. Makes sense to me, the creme de la creme has already been sold off. The remaining cards were probably taking up too much space in the warehouse and costing too much to store. |

Shop at Home, QVC and the like get their stuff through volume dealers, folks who would handle stuff like this. I know Solomon Cramer, who has posted on this board, provided cards to one of these tv shows. As I believe Solomon is not in New Jersey, I'm not saying he's my guess for the consignor. Though I believe Ken Goldin is from NJ. |
