Consignor's Pickle
As a collector/consignor myself, as I know many here are, I often find myself on the horns of dilemma when it comes to selling my cards. Normally, I would sell something only when:
1. Family emergency.
2. Loss of outside income.
3. When Pauly Walnuts comes around and asks me when I am going to repay that little gambling debt.
4. Fund myself for a big purchase.
What makes consigning tough these days is soaring card prices, including pre-War top shelf HOF'ers, so timing for consignment delivery becomes a factor. What I think I have learned is that when you decide to consign your precious cards, even those that sleep with under the pillow at night, just do it and the market be damned.
