My thoughts
This is all too common a scenario:
Person comes into Card Cash forum, sells a few cards for CC, can't find anything to buy over the next few weeks, then gets fed up and never lists anything again an undersells his/her CC for a few dollars.
Card Cash has the potential to make trading much more efficient: instead of having to find somebody with a card you like AND who happens to have need of a card in your possesion with the exact value it would be a whole lot easier if more people would make use of what is basically "site credit".
For this to happen, more people need to get off their butts and list some cards for CC, even if it's a handful of junk game used, autos, or whatever! Is it really going to kill anybody to take $20 "street value" in cards they're looking to unload anyway and give this a try? The people in charge of the site are making a real effort toward adding value by offering items for CC, but they can only do so much. CC seems to sell at 50-70 cents per 100 so price from there. I've listed basically everything I would normally put out at a card show and so far I've been nothing but happy with the results.
I only have 9 CC in my account at the time of this post (with none incoming), so I'm saying this to encourage more activity and not to build value of my own CC.
Finally, I would like to thank Topps A+G for putting himself out there and listing so many nice cards! I think that was a lot of fun for a number of people on here but I would like to see more people doing the same, otherwise CC is going to be nothing more than what I mentioned earlier (people getting discouraged by being stuck with their CC).

I got rid of 80% of my trade bait by selling it for CC. And turned it into a couple nice RC autos of someone I collect, a nice rookie patch, packs of cards, and just picked up a Jeter autograph. :) I sold tons of nice autographs of Miguel Cabrera, nice patch cards, and other things and have been more than happy with the results. I've gotten stuff I've wanted (or would make better trade bait).
I'm now down to 800cc, lol.

I'm not referring to the people who sell actively on here-we can definitely use more like you guys. I just think people who post on trade forums with pages worth of "bump", "ttt", or "anybody?" would be much better served turning their cards into CC. If a lot of people started doing it aside from maybe 5-10 people who regularly sell it would be a big step toward filling a lot of want lists.

I agree. That's what I did with my cards I couldn't trade. I was making a point for those who read this that selling for CC is a good idea.

Especially if Andrew (Topps A+G) keeps selling! He's going to Nationals, atleast i think he told me he was, lets hope for 10 cases of Heroes :)

Spoodini-Yep, that was me :) LOL
Dan-Hahaha...10 Cases of Heroes=10 Dimmagio Quads for CC, LOL.
Jesse011-Yes, I agree with you 100% and think there needs to be more cards involved with CC and more members interested in CC.
Topps A+G-As Jesse said earlier, thanks for putting out very nice cards!
