This sums up all my PC's except the Cousins one. Lol. I could probably get some $$$ back on the Cousins one, but seriously who want's to buy 20 Julius Hodge autos, or 300 10-11 Donruss Emerald Die-Cuts.

I'd stomp on those Julius Hodge cards lol. I collect Bogut for pure love too. Don't think he's ever going to be a big hobby winner.

A few things to keep in mind:

1 - Most of the people who buy on here ARE NOT looking for the cards you are selling, but, at a CHEAP price, they will grab it to trade in the future. This is considered lowballing sometimes, but it is just simple reality.

2 - If you are ONLY looking to trade, then you need to have something that each other wants, which is VERY rare! Therefore you limit your options.

3 - It is a HOBBY, not a matter or life and death! I love the thrill of getting something for my PC, whether big or small. I have in the past been more excited over a $5 card than a $100 card that I needed!

I have sold PLENTY of cards in the past at well below their 'true value' because there wasn't anyone on here who wanted it. You can't expect there to always be a buyer for every card you sell. BUT, if someone sees a card for MUCH cheaper than normal, then they may choose to buy it, maybe even to flip it on eBay, but that is their choice. If you want full eBay price for a card..... SELL ON EBAY! haha

Good Luck AJ, just be patient mate!

Cads of course being the awesome new replacement for cards, much more cad a lot less rrrrrrrrrr LOL

For sure, I just knocked down my prices lol I will sell or trade and discount for multiple purchases, and yes I know about the only cards I have that people would want I dont wanna part with lol

and I hear ya on point 3... I love me a good Wolves base card, especially if it completes the team set (considering I am chasing every wolves base made ever).

I think the fact I haven't even got a CMB for a Jordan insert of moderate value is what has thrown me.

 

[Mr Paparazzi]

Ha I have 3 Bogut cads - one GU but I imagine you already have it lol

Which ones? I'm happy to get doubles. Happy to trade you the Beasley jersey numbered limited spotlight.

 

[WhiteyTheCelticsFan]

It is a tough market in the hobby. NBA starting soon should help.

I find there's 3 types of members.

1 Lowballers - name speaks for itself then when you want one of their cards it's rarer than a dinosaur egg.
2 Highrollers - Can afford whatever they want and good luck to them I say.
3 True Collectors - do it for the hobby, the love spend anywhere from 1-30% off their income.

As a hobby business it's hard to move any sort of singles ATM. Small medium or large. So hold in their mate things will turn around.

Thats me, thing is I'm not old enough to have a job so the only income I get is from cards I sell and I just can't seem to sell them

a couple of base including donruss and 12/13 hoops i think... just uploading photo of gu now

 

[Mr Paparazzi]

Yeah agree with what you say Adam but lowballing is a sad reality of this hobby.

Too many in fact even on this forum. Whether you are wealthy, stingy or poor no excuse for blatant lowballing. I wish I could stomp it out. But don't get me wrong im always happy to help a PC or sell a few at a bargain.

But when you have $50 cards getting offer for $15 and $400 cards ad getting offers for $200 it's just plain stupidity.

I find this funny cause I did a trade with AJ just the other day and I would have much preferred the paypal then a trade. But I know how it feels to be poor most of the time so I chose a couple of cards I could somehow work into to PC lol.
Well at least one made it to the Raptors PC, the other one I am stuck with for life

 

[wolvesjr34]

thats the bogey i have

and I appreciate it and because of that, when I get useful stuff that you collect you will be first person I come to

I am a big believer in karma, aside from the fact it simply feels good to help. Thanks AJ. Wish I could help you more but I went through everything I had the other day.

 

[Mr Paparazzi]

Happy to trade the few bogey cards for the Beasley jersey numbered spotlight. Plus I'll find some other wolves cards for you. Send me a pm mate. I'll reply when I get home from work.

I hope the Derozen was needed! And you have done more than enough I appreciate grealy anyone who is willing to trade for something not quite in their scope to help someone else out, especially when its me LOL I am more than happy to do the same for others too, especially team collectors. I love helping fellow team collectors.

High-5 for us team collectors WOO WOO

 

[motiv8dan]

yeah he had no interest in what i had to offer.

Sorry mate I did have interest just not at the moment and I hate looking through buckets, I like nice big scans, I am like most with a limited budget thanks to the ball and chain, and I have a problem that I want to buy everything. I have changed the course of direction in my collecting and knocking back a lot of things recently and directing my chase to exactly what I need and not want. I am using COMC alot and Ebay.com for exact cards I need. I still am doing some deals on here though if the cards jump at me or it will help a set.

The problem was I was picking up a heap of cards that were starting more unfulfilled sets.
