Before I knew that tool was available, I went off of SMR and jacked up the price to factor in eBay and PayPal fees. I figured either the market is stronger than I thought or I’m doing something wrong (probably the latter) because my cards were selling within minutes of listing them. Then I discovered their auction pricing tool and adjusted accordingly. The cards don’t sell as quickly, but they eventually do and for a higher price.
They are definitely conservative. I've been looking a lot lately at the Sport Kings set and I can't find PSA cards for the prices on the SMR.
