Good or Bad Auction Deal

[Romahawk]

Just sold these on my small auction site where I now have been able to list 1500 of my cards and will be listing many more... Beats listing on E-Bay... Any way I sold these Mantles and several Jeter cards all at a buck a piece.. Did I do good or did the buyer make out like a fat rat? :eek:

Oddly enough, it looks like those 1988 Mantle reprints sell pretty well on COMC.com; 2 currently listed at $30.90 and $40, one of which is on sale for $21 right now. But 5 of the #311 reprints have sold for up to $49. So I'd say you missed out. Maybe you should send your cards to COMC? Much better traffic there and you can cross-list them on Amazon to get even more eyes.

Weird; although it says two are listed; when you click further they might be sold out.

Thanks for the comments Swarmee.... I noticed those listings on comc and a few on Ebay but I really didn't miss out on the sales from my site.. I never really was a collector, just a hoarder and the back of the closet needs a cleaning out so I figure I'll kill two birds with one stone. I can offer folks a deal and clean up at the same time. The buck or two I get on the card plus all the fees saved on listing on the large sites keeps me happy and gives me something to do.. That plus listing them on my site saves me from making a humongus text file and then editing and revising it all the time, I let the auction site software take care of that stuff for me..

Now a question, what is the difference between a Topps Micro and a regular Topps card, is it size?

I believe that the micro cards were the complete sets of inch-tall cards they started selling as complete sets around 1992.
