Kenny: My recommendation is nothing more than to give your cards to someone who is selling on eBay all of the time. They are set up to answer questions, handle multiple shipments and do all of the other things routinely encountered in their business. The consignment fee which is typically encountered for this service will range from 10 - 20% of the sale value.

The higher end of that range is certainly justified when the dealer is handling many low priced cards, and I believe that the lower end of that range would apply to individual higher priced cards (which are a far less time consuming money generator).

But really Kenny, there are lots of dealers on this board who have way more experience with this than I have. And their fee is also justified by the credibility which they generate with prospective bidders, as well as the following of bidders which they have.

It can be a worthwhile deal all around.
