Pwcc Help
so lets assume I willing to give PWCC a try; I have a tremendous inventory to go through and I believe they get more looks than I do; if I shouldn't or you disagree PM me{ I would love to hear opinions why} But assuming I am giving them to give 500-1000 PSA cards to start:
What years do you think do best? pre 60? pre 70? post 79? etc. How do low/mid grades do? Obviously higher grade is best but how about mid grade stuff? say 3-7 Many of my items are between 40/50-250 vcp; is this a good threshold? or am I better off just running my own auctions on ebay? I do have 1000+ feedback. or is there another option? Although on many occasions I see their auction realized price is higher than my buy it now price, but that is mostly on higher graded stuff. I do sell on ebay, but it can be very time consuming and I'm really thinking am I better off just letting them do it and run the raw & modern stuff at auction and let the market determine the value opinions appreciated and needed as I have been dissecting this decision for over a year now.

I would say that low and mid grade stuff performs weakly with PWCC, like with everyone else.
There is certainly an ease in giving them stuff, but they do take a cut. It's real time consuming to sell a few 100 cards. Last edited by Snapolit1; 10-18-2017 at 06:05 PM. |

Always heard cards over 250 were good to send his way

Check out their page and look at the fees to see if it's worth it on the lower end stuff. For that many cards I would call and see if you can work something out. The time saved could be worth a lot more in the end.

Does the fee include shilling service already or do you pay extra for that?

No, that's part of the buyer's fee.

Ive noticed that PWCC works especially well in getting good prices if you have someone with 8-9 bid retractions in the last 6 months hitting your items over and over.

All I want is lots of eyes on my consignment(s), good fees and service. They did it all....And I got paid right on time. I wouldn't doubt I send them some more. Plus they definitely advertise in the right places . Overall they did a great job for me.
ps...I didn't notice any shill bidding on the consignment I gave them either. .

I find that the minimal fee is more than worth the Labor of listing and shipping the items. I also find that you often get that 10% more just by virtue of listing through them. It's a no-brainer. I joked about their lackluster descriptions earlier, but they are a top-notch company. They get top dollar and pay on time.

PWCC also offers cash advances up to 50% of the consignment value.

And thus we have the reason why unethical dealers continue to thrive in our business, so long as they offer great service. As much as we may hold our noses about certain business practices, we keep giving them our business.

Ed, can you give us some alternatives? Please tell me about the baseball card shangri-la where no one shills, no cards are doctored, and all cards are correctly graded. I will consign with them posthaste.

OK, we obviously are human and mis-grade and are fooled on occasion.

I think they are probably fine to deal with as a consigner as long as you don't expect to get crazy prices like seen in some of their auctions. It is too easy for folks with a crooked bent to use their services as a platform to manipulate auctions, and they have proven lackluster in going after this element, probably because of all the extra money these auctions bring in.

I think for 90% of mid value items you can basically get the same price from one of the auction houses that advertises here that charges no commission to the consignor. If I had a $100,000 card I might want all the eyeballs of ebay, but for most $250 cards I think you will do just as well elsewhere. I sold with PWCC once and was colossally disappointed. Guess I should have hired a friend to shill for me.

I'm starting to think Steve doesn't care for pwcc.
Seriously, I've consigned with with them multiple times and have no huge complaints, and am frequently surprised at some of the prices I get. The only disappointment I had with them was with modern unopened. For that I would look elsewhere or sell yourself. Otherwise I will continue to use them. |

I might look into JVSC auctions. They run bi-weekly auctions that might be a good fit with your material. I have not consigned with them as I dont sell much, but I have purchased, and the experience was outstanding.

That would include every single card on their site. LOL My favorite is when they say "perhaps the nicest card we've ever brokered",
.but I still buy most of my cards thru them. They are easy to deal with, ship quick, and accept credit cards.
