...and if you find the right item, you can flip it on ebay and knock down the % a bit.

This brings up something I had been thinking about...since you can add cards using store credit, and "cash out" by making purchases, how could the site make money? I know there was a notice on the site that fees, etc could change at some point, but isn't the way it's set up now a problem for them? Granted, they are trying to make the site grow and seem to be succeeding, but long term don't they have to make some significant changes? Of course they could be hoping to sell advertising at some point.

They make $.20 per card the scan and list. They are making money on shipping cards and i am sure alot of people cash out some.

I am not cashing out because i use the store credit to ship more cards and buy cards for my personal collect or to sell at local shows.

What do they charge for shipping cards that you buy? Is there a flat rate or does it depend on the quantity?

[bziddy]

I think it is $2 for the first card, 20c for each addt'l -- max of $20.

If they just add it to your account, let me know, or should I include the $2 when I send mine out?
