Any advice on which is better for selling singles? Also any advice on how much to charge to break even on selling $1 singles? Thanks.

If anyone wants to send me cards from my wantlist or teams I like, I am happy to accept :) |

I havent sold on Ebay, but if you can find a good group on Facebook its really beneficial as you will save on fees!

just join any of the groups but that have bigger group #'s so the most amount of people will see it. Just announce a quick sale with a combined / and maximum shipping cost and make sure you can upload / scan a bunch of cards either one or multiple cards at a time. Just make sure you have enough to sell to make it worth your while.
-------------------------------
Got my collection kind of split up in 3 places in two seperate states. So I am willing to trade but might take me a bit to find the cards from my Trade / Sell list. So please message me first so that I can take some time to find the cards you would be interested in. Whether it's an hour or 2 months or etc. I would get back to you after locating the card or cards. |

A lot of groups will have amandatory waiting period before you sell anything so heads up on the rules. Or they will kick you out.

I'm also thinking of selling on facebook. I've used eBay a fair amount but it's tough to sell lower value cards on there as fees and shipping eat up any money to be made. Downside to facebook is that I find it hard to use. Have been on it for about 5 years, maybe more, so it's tough figuring out groups and where my posts are (I joined a bunt group for buying/selling).

Why not just sell on this site?! It's easy, there are plenty of buyers and there are no fees. I've never sold on ebay and I don't even have a Facebook account. I haven't had any problems selling cards on this site. I sold 3 packages of cards on here last week without even trying to find buyers.

Isn't it strange? Even though cards are in the for sale/trade category no one asks to buy. I have one guy that buys cards from me and that is it. Are people skittish about making an offer?

I have done well simply through FB Marketplace mostly because of very low prices therefore helping others fill in sets with commons that they are missing. I have also sold on here but local only where we can meet up. I have seen groups on FB and that can work as you have a large market but your prices will need to be very competitive with the other card sources such as Sportlots, COMC and ebay.

I have had a few members reach out to buy from me. Mostly a small number of cards that can be sent in a PWE. A couple of them have purchased several times.
An interesting point to me has been members stating they are buying cards in bulk (from other places) but when I reach out to sell cards thay have on their want list, They are not buying. It is not like I'm over pricing my cards as I let the buyer set the price. I have only rejected a couple of offers and my counter offers were accepted.
I have one member that I have over 8,000 cards that he needs zero cards I need. Sure wish he live near by.
Is there a way to see who has the most cards on their want list that I have on my for sale/trade list?
