What are the pros and cons of consignment?
As a lifetime collector, I am within sight of my 70th birthday. I am feeling the need to reduce my collection to 10 or 20%, if not totally liquidate. My collection does not rank amongst the elite of this site. However, there is relatively significant value. I have always been a set collector, but also have lots of odd lots. Lots of vintage including 1933 Goudey complete set , a stack of Obaks, lots of memorabilia... I 'll stop there or everyone will lose interest in a hurry.
One alternative is consignment. I have no exprience with this method of selling. Please share you thoughts on consignment relative to selling here or eBay, auction house or selling to a dealer. What is a reasonable per centage to pay for consignment? I assume that you would be required to hand over the cards prior to sale. How do you protect yourself from well, anything bad? It is amazing that I feel confident asking for advice from people I have never met. Net54baseball rocks! Thanks everyone. Last edited by Jerry G; 08-05-2022 at 05:45 PM. |
