using bay isn't all that bad. You'll end up losing 13% after fees though, so you'll have to calculate that in. I'd just check what auctions are completing at vs buy list. If they're within 15%, ship to the buy list. If they are way less then take the time to list them for auction. You should be able to move a bunch to buy lists w/o losing that much and just end up saving some time.

You can also use magictraders.com and sell through there. Pricing to sell on there is usually right at/under auction prices to get people to buy them. You typically can get buyers to cover paypal/shipping as well. If you have no feedback through MOTL, you'd have to be comfortable researching the buyer's reputation and 99% of the time sending first since you wouldn't have a reputation there. You're required to set a price, so it does make things easier when you don't have to worry about what price you'll get. You either get your asking price, make a deal that you're comfortable with, or just move on.

this is what mine looks like if you go this route. I sell regularly through MOTL:

That site looks nice, I'm defiantly going to look at it further

It seems though everyone is advising against me selling to a shop like SCG so I don't think imma so that anymore

only hard thing about selling on 3bay is when you have 0 or low feedback typically your items will sell for a little lower because people dont know if your trying to scam or not, or you might not get as many people offering on it,

e.bay sucks due to fees
tcgplayer you could try, but they have fees as well
I'd sell on mtgsalvation, no fees and if they're staples and good prices usually it's not hard to find buyers

If I didn't need the money I'd hang onto them, but college and rent isn't cheap :/

Pricing all of them at SP condition prices on SSG buy list I'd get approx $1,397.5 for everything

Idk if I can do much better elsewhere


Take it and run then.


No point in haggling if u need cash

vouch the mtgosalv rec, might take a while though, but no fees and maximum value might be worth it.

Mtgs = Mtgsalvation?

I was lookin at that site and that's lookin like my best option, I tried to make an acc today but never got a confirmation email

Should the confirmation email be instant or do I have to wait a day or so
