General Forum

I've found an LCS that has 10 cent bins where I've found rookies of Ben Wallace, Antoine Walker, Rasheed Wallace, Isaac Bruce, Steve McNair, and some others in excellent condition. And I can see it being a decent move business-wise, as when I go I end up with a bunch of cards and buy penny sleeves, a thing of toploaders, etc., and I'm happy to do it. There was also a forum posting for a store in Canada for a ten cent sale and it had a lot of solid cards at that price. In other words, I think the .18 cents for a lot of cards people have seen on Sportslots and think may inaccurate, may actually be on point and definitely be considered in any pricing info based on sales.

Just start entering some of the latest ebay sell prices. It's time consuming since you don't have the convenience of automatically having prices entered when any card sells, but that's the only way I can think of. 

I am not here to argue but just got in on this conversation and have been doing what you're doing since I started seeing new SN Chrome and Prizm cards listed at 0.18. I thought it was part of the time lapse or the Zyrtec glitch...Regardless the "grayed" out pricing does not mean it doesn't count anymore. I haven't checked the algorithms but out of proving a point I knew a card sold for more than the low value priced at about 0.20. I went on ebay and found multiple sales for 3.99 - 20 with various shipping costs and it took entering 5 of them to get the price to move from under $0.50. Mathematically it doesn't make sense if only 5 prices are factored and originally they're all at .18 or .25 (I wish I'd have written it down) but after a 7.99 w/ SH and a 4.99 it should have risen and it didnt.

   Not upset, I've never even sold a card before (even though I REALLY want to sell most of them) but I do spend time on here when I can't sleep or have a 24 hour shift with a 3am break etc and thought it was worth seeing if anyone else had this experience recently.

   Cheers!
