    First dealer you ran into was the exact kind of character and tables I avoid at shows lol to expect a minimum of 30% - 35% off of comps is wild, and he was upset about the potential of making $20? what a weirdo. every video I watch tables have no problem paying around 80% for stuff.

      Then sell your own shit on ebay. Deal with the fees, shipping, charge backs, and thefts. You want to sell to dealers for the same fees you'd pay on ebay, without all the hard work and risks. HE is a weirdo ? what are YOU then ? Entitled ?

    It's always these whiners like the first dealer that are complaining about not getting 100% return on a flip. I can't wait for that breed of dealer to just retire and walk away from the hobby. Cry me a river. I grew up around hustlers... pennie$ make cent$ and cent$ make dollar$. A 12% return puts money in your pocket and a slab in your inventory. Keep grindin' fam.

    I find it’s hard to make deals unless you’re buying a few cards from a dealer . Dealers sell at full eBay comps and throw the not paying taxes in you’re face like they are doing you a favor as you’re saving them like 15% in fees . That’s what get me comps at $100 if I pay you $90 you’re actually getting more but sure act like I’m trying to low ball

      This is a hobby and business at the end of the day do what works for you, right? I'm not hating I've been the dealer before you have to pay travel, table, lunch, and other thing that people are trying to sell. You are also sitting other products that you have in inventory. Paying at 90% is tough too as a dealer. Again I'm not hating or upset however someone else that views it might not be the way I view it.

  • @cards999
    @cards999 22 години тому +1

    First guy should have just passed with no attitude. But if a card sells for $50 on ebay, he'd probably have to price it at $40 to move it in Hickory (much smaller market, and, yeah I've been to that show many times). More likely, he'd have to move it on ebay and only make a few bucks IF the value doesn't go down. With that said, you can occasionally find guys to take deals like that and there's no harm in asking.

    • @PuacCardCollection
      @PuacCardCollection  22 години тому

      That's what wanted to show its okay to say no and move on. I'm not hating on the dude he's making a living and enjoying the hobby. Just some young collectors getting into the game might get intimidated and just sell it for a loss. Sometimes its okay and hold someone will buy it

      From someone from the old days!!! It has always had people that want to buy for 50% because that's human nature. Just watch pawn stars. If it is a good card and sells well 70-90% is fair. A collection of stuff I need to package and display and take years to sell 50% and don't want it.

    Best piece of advice anyone will give you is this: DON’T hold your cards!!!!! They will only go down, so get what you can and can what you get, fam!!! A friend of mine bought a PSA 10 Topps Kobe rookie (card 138) for $3800 and was bragging about it. I said, “sell that quick to anyone right now. Take a loss if you have to. Just get out from under it”. He still owns it and it’s down to 900. I would still tell him to sell it today to get out from under it, but common sense doesn’t work. He thinks Kobe is going to do something to raise the value of that card………

      @ I disagree. It is not like the stock market. First of all, the stock market is regulated. Cards are like the Wild, Wild West where anything goes. Secondly, the stock market goes up. Cards go down. Now if you were to say that cards are the opposite of the stock market, we could agree on that. Another difference is that cards are not an investment, unlike the stock market. Contrary to Jeff Wilson and his minions, cards are an anti-investment. Invest in Bitcoin before you invest in cardboard. This is a hobby. Not an investment. Not an industry. A hobby. Just enjoy it for what it is.
