    Pats, the cards that i have posted are my promo items (from the blog promotions). I sent in a 160 cards total, and those were about 30 of the 160.

    The cards i sold were all older basketball cards, a Pete Maravich, and Kareem Abdul Jabbar... were the best of em.

    and yes Pats, you can buy somethin on site and turn around and relist... they actually have the option right there that says, buy this and relist! haha

    what are your other ones that you are waiting on? All sports? Mostly inserts? Autos? GU? Rookies? Low end? High end?

    uhhhm, ok i pretty much sent a mix of everything in just to kinda get an idea of what sells for myself. I heard they have higher shipping to canada or maybe they dont even ship to canada, so i was thinkin the hockey may not sell as well... (yet i still sent in a bunch of inserts, a few gu/autos) I sent in all my nascar collection, had like 20-30 race used/and autos... uhmmm, a few of the highlights i can remember are, i had a stack of Josh Hamilton Topps Traded RCs had like 20 of em, sent all them... had a nice Jerod Mayo 09 Topps Chrome Superfractor 1/1... haha thats about all i remember. I do remember though, thinkin to myself before i sent them, that if you can find 100 cards that sell for $1 you can buy somethin nice with a $100 bucks when they sell... so i tried to just find inserts, and cheaper stuff, stuff that i wasnt gonna miss... and hopefully i can make somethin out of nothin...

    LOL. I didn't really look at the buying options on the site. Thanks for the info on that.

    I love COMC concept. I just had my first promo batch processed as well. I have about another 4 weeks to wait on a bigger batch of 500 cards to get processed. No more running to the post office every time I sell a card! 8 weeks is a long time to wait but I think it will be worth it once they are processed.

    Nabbed this off twitter, but they do ship to Canada and it's fairly reasonable. The majority of the packages come in under 7 bucks shipped. I think they ask for a quarter extra per card to ship to Canada.

    Here's the thing about COMC though, and you really have to pay attention or else you'll start needlessly losing money.

    Do the math!

    On a card that sells for a dollar, you're making about 60 real cents.
    On a card that sells under the free storage .25 cents, you're making about 3 cents.
    On a card that sells for 5 dollars, you're making about 3.25.

    Once your cards start sitting around in the warehouse, taking up space and costing your storage fees, it'll add up.

    Good advice. I know that on most of my cards, at least the ones that I was able to get off ebay, I can make around $2.50 per card. That takes into account the total amount it cost me to get the card from the eBay seller (winning bid/BIN + Shipping to me), the box that I use to send the cards to COMC, the bubble mailer to ship to COMC, soft sleeves to protect the cards in transit, postage to COMC, and COMC listing fees. After adding all of that up, I split those costs evenly between all of the cards in the package. That will give me my break even/profit figures.

    I have an excel spreadsheet dedicated to figuring all of that stuff out. If anyone wants a copy to see for themselves, please PM me your email address.

    They only have up 90% of my promo batch, but they let me price these ones out.

    I'm really excited for my other batch of 150+. There I have all the autos, gu, and good rookies. This was just a lot inserts, lebron/jordan base. They were running a Lebron, Jordan, Topps Chrome special.
