to sell - ebay now, or wait until spring?
 

Posted By: <b>steve</b><p>Do most ebay sellers of vintage cards view Christmas season as a time to fetch nice prices? Or might it be recommended to wait and sell in spring near start of baseball season?<br /><br />I am thinking of listing some nice PSA/SGC cards in the $200.-1200. range, maybe a couple $2000.-5000. cards.<br /><br />The $50.-200. cards would probably sell for respectable prices any time, but would people now hesitate to plunk down a tidy sum at Christmas time?<br /><br />Thanks, Steve

Posted By: <b>Jason L</b><p>until you can be sure everyone has received their bonuses...also good to avoid larger sales since so much of people's money has to go towards other things this time of year.<br />just my 2 cents...

Posted By: <b>Steve Murray</b><p>That was the very first thing that jumped into my mind when I saw the thread title. Mailing during the holiday season is risky at best and those waits in line at the PO to get to the counter can take forever. I have even stopped posting items on the BST for the same reason.<br /><br />But, with that said, I don't think you have to wait until spring. Just wait long enough for the PO to catch its breath.

Now with Christmas closer and just gets slower and slower for the next month or two. Auctions still do okay, but buy it now listings are tough<br /><br />Take care<br /><br />Jimmy<br />
