I was there most of the week. For those actually interested, I went walking by there a number of times, as it was both near the restrooms and near the ebay booth where they were handing out $10 coupons. They were normally empty or had folks there in ones and twos looking at the displays of cards. I saw one or two people either selling or consigning, seated at a table talking with a PWCC rep. Other than that, it was one of the quietest and most empty setups in the entire convention center.

Guess Brent felt otherwise.

What a great National Convention!


This past National revealed perhaps the most energetic and swiftly appreciating market in history. We have never seen so many people at the show and so much excitement in the room. We had a great experience and really enjoyed the face-time with our customers.


We picked up some amazing items for Auction #9!

We are extending the submission deadline until 8/15/19 to allow time for those who were traveling from the show.

Extending the deadline...

...because they didn't get the consignments they were expecting?

I checked my spam filter and it looks like they do this extension often.

eBay has a booth?

[tulsaboy]

ebay had a setup that was about 15x15 with a countertop set up on 3 sides, with a handful of ipads. You walked up and entered your name, email, phone number, and answered one or two questions about whether or not you sold things on ebay, and they entered you into a raffle and gave you a $10 off coupon that is useable on any transaction for more than $10. It was actually a heck of a deal. I *may* have gone back a couple of times to get extra coupons. They worked right away, we used a couple from right inside the convention center. The folks there were very nice and quite friendly. They even gave us little ebay Sharpies.

I think Brent is learning the hard way what Ed Norton said many year ago about the sewer, "be nice to the people you meet on the way up . . . because you are going to meet the same people on the way down."

Did you get their phone numbers? Every time I've ever called Fee-Bay they apparently are in the Philippines????...AND you know Fudd's policy on companies that have Philippine call centers. They get themselves fired and never used again.

StockX was right behind eBay. It is trying to be an eBay alternative with PSA graded cards in the major sports. Their deal is that they act as an escrow: you ship to them, they get items to the buyers, so no horse-arounds with delivery. The rep told me that they recently had a very favorable evaluation with some venture capital people and expect a very large investment to fuel the expansion into other sports cards. There are no listing fees and you don't send them the card until payment is in hand. I hope they do emerge as a viable eBay alternative; if not, at least they had good snacks at the booth.
