Suggestions for the best way to sell many cards

"I agree that selling here will save you 10-20% in fees through either auction house or ebay/paypal."

Unless you and your nana are in the Boston area then it could cost you around 15% or so...perhaps more.

Inside joke Becky amoung us card junkies, all the advice given thus far is solid.

Good luck with your sale.

Cheers,

John

For boxing cards, go here:

Lots of data and links to extensive type card images so you can determine what you have. I am the proprietor.

I am still very overwhelmed! I picked up the cards and saw that most of them graded very low. I'm testing my scanning abilities now. These are just a few of the cards I have. The T202 Johnson/Street is the best one at 80 EX/NM. The guys at SGC got most excited over the T201 Crawford/Cobb cards. I have 3 but the best one graded at 30. The other two have A's.
My cards are clearer than they scanned. I will keep trying but I wanted to put something up.

Looks like you have a CIS scanner instead of a CCD scanner. This is just the type of sensor used in the scanning process. CIS scanners are fine but focus just on the glass. You can see on the back of one of the cards that the SGC logo embossed in the plastic is clear but the card which is just slightly above the glass is out of focus. There may be a way to adjust these scanners to focus just slightly above the glass, but I'm not sure how.

A CCD scanner will have better depth of field and will keep the entire field in focus. Just FYI -

CIS scanners are worthless for any 3D items. Ive tried several.

I recently ordered the Epson V300 (CCD), that includes the slides and negatives attachment as well. $82.50 from Amazon, w/ free shpg.

Several slabheads have spoke well about this unit.

Cards like those would best be sold privately...either on the bst here or Full Count Forum or on ebay...in my opinion.

I agree completely. Not rare enough or high grade enough to get major $$ in an auction. Best to save those fees and sell them on your own.

Nice Cobb!

If they were mine, I would get a one day subscription on VCP and use that to price them here on the BST, most of your cards will have listed sales vales so should be pretty straight forward.
