Also Vinny maybee you should tell people what have sold well? For me it has been cheap inserts (Like $2-3 inserts sold at 66% off). Also sold a lot of hockey auto and jersey rookies of book value like $10-20 at 50-60% off. However none of my basketball cards have sold, so I would say stick to baseball and hockey.

I am pretty sure Vinny has cashed out. I am letting the money accumulate cause I want to send more cards in so don't want to waste 20% since I have to pay to send cards in again, however once I have a lot of money in there I will cash out some of it.

I've cashed out twice and it was quick and painless. I've also bought a few cards for the fun of it.

My sales are mainly baseball and no real pattern. I imagine a lot of buyers are team/player collectors. They pick through everything and grab the bargains.

I do think about a quarter of my sales have been to other CMC dealers who buy mine at say 35% and reprice them at 50+%. That's fine with me.

Best to All,
Vinny

So would it be a good idea to send in inserts? Like the YSL and DJ retro. cards or Heritage inserts, etc.

Yes inserts work great, get $2-10 inserts and sell them for 50-75% off and it should sell nicely.

I met the owner of this site at last year's National in Cleveland. Nice guy. Glad his site is working out for all of you.

Woo Hoo - two sales today. Both for .30 a piece...hahahahahahahaah Well on my way!

Amazing how many people are making offers some of the 'star' player base cards I sent in. Cards I have listed for .50-1.00. Offers coming in at $.20 or lower.
