Are you allowed to price only after the whole batch is posted? I'm figuring this is the deal.

Brian

Brian, you are correct. You can't price any of your cards until the batch is processed. There will be a notification on your dashboard saying that you have cards that need your attention once the batch is ready to be priced.

Pats thanks for the official word :)

Ok COMC gurus! or is that too much?!

I have a quick question. What would ya say is sufficient enough to charge on a game used jersey that list $6 in Beckett. Or say it list $8 or $10, we're talking pretty much your common run and semistars/stars. Forgoing any chatter of not going by Beckett seeing the site is backed by the Beckett values, what would ya say is an acceptable range, 75 % off? Is $1.50 for a jersey a little much? Should I look more at $1.25 or even $1?

Also real fast, as to shipping, if I were to buy 100 cards through COMC, do they set a roof or cap on the shipping, for instance $10-$15? I surely do hope they cut a break somewhere along the line.

Thanks and yes I am going to look at their website info more in depth.

Thank you much,

Brian

As far as pricing goes, I'm one of those sellers that has a lot of $5 and less bv cards so there tends to be more than one card. You can click on the card when you're doing the pricing and see what others are selling it for. If someone is super low ball and you don't want to go that low, set it for what you're comfortable with. In most cases, I try to be the low price so mine sells first. Guess I'm the Walmart of COMC.

For cards where mine is the only one, I just try to come up with a fair price. I'm probably around 75% on most cards in that instance.

[PatsCards]

75% off seems to be about right. Most of mine are set at the low book value. But, because most of the cards that I have on the site, I'm trying to flip, I'm not accepting anything less than what I paid for the card. There are a couple that I'm trying to make a good buck on, but those are few and far between.

Thank you!

It definitely appears to be a buyer's market. I do like the set up over there. I'll probably be in the ballpark range of 75% off with cards that I'm just trying to at least recoup what I paid. The site overall seems to be a great allternative to eBay and what I like is the many choices given to get what you desire; ability to change prices quickly, see what the competition is offering, a solid structure, sell to other dealers, etc. There's a bunch of ways to come out with some sort of victory :)

I'm going to attempt to expand their listings of Japanese cards. My submission recently got loaded, so I've got about 40 Japanese baseball cards listed now. My main concern is their affiliation with Beckett, who has completely ignored the Japanese card market since 2002. And I don't like that they always call the sets "BBM Japan" or "Calbee Japan" instead of just with the normal set name. That's like listing all the American cards as "Topps USA" or "Pinnacle USA" or "O-Pee-Chee Canada". Cards have only been up for about 5 days, and no sales so far, but I missed Black Friday, so I may just have to wait.

My 50 free cards got loaded in about a week and have been up for about two days! No sells yet but I sent in a bunch of inserts that I didn't care about very much and figured I could get a buck or two from each of them.
