excited for Pokemon!

It took until @31:25, when the app name was on the screen, that I realized the product is called “Card Cobra” and not “CardCo Bro”.

EXCEPTIONAL CONVERSATION! ☕

I'm pretty confused by the use case of this technology. Aren't you spending much more time and money by going through the process of scanning every card individually? Seems faster and more efficient to just spread out 300 cards and take a few photos. Even if you could prove that an optimized listing improves sell-through or ASP, it would still have to overcome the huge costs of the scanner, AI software, this app, etc.

I have some great shipping tips over on my channel if anyone is interested!

"Account Settings... under Payment Preferences"....meanwhile, screen shows Shipping Service>Shipping Settings.

A quick review of his store shows for the past week, he sold a total of $351 worth of cards, with free shipping, and the vast majority in the $5-7 per lot range. Once ebay fees and postage costs are removed, maybe $200 left, then less cost of cards, leaves $1xx in profit for a WEEK of business on ebay. When labor is considered, he is making less than what he could working at McDonalds. If he had to pay the $300 a month to use his tool, along with other fees, krono card, accouting software etc, he basically covered his expenses, not his labor. So he would have worked to pay his expenses, and made $0 doing so. Count in his aquisition costs(expenses/labor) to get those cards and he definately lost money.

Great interview!

Very informative video, price made me do a rewind to make sure I heard correctly lmao. Ill be sticking with CDP but I only list about 50-100 cards a week

Thank you for the education my dude! ✊🔥

I’ve been on eBay since April 2002 with over 1000 feedback and didn’t know some of these settings. Thanks Ty.

“They’re small, they don’t take up much space “ ……😂😂😂 I’m not sure how many I have last count was over 650,000 but I’ll tell you if I ever have to turn my office into a safe room I’ve got enough cardboard to soak up a lot of gunfire and shrapnel.

Very nice. Time to grade!

My first impression of this software was this is the future and can’t wait to see where it heads.

Great video! I’ve been using the software for a few weeks now and it’s working Great! Just listed 800 cards today with it and Kronocard AI.

What's a good dual sided feed scanner that won't scratch cards?

paul is dope. happy user of card cobra here

Ty you have the best content in the Hobby!! Absolutely love all your videos. Paul is the best I have card cobra and absolutely love Paul and the software highly recommend it!

Man that sweater what the fuck lol

This is so relatable! I did what Paul did in 2011 and then switched to just cards! Takes up a lot less space when you sell a variety of items. Great show TY!

Will the price go up for people that get in early at 300?

Does this work with Pokemon cards??

I'm someone who will look to get into Ebay selling when I retire in 5 years or so...I have hundreds of thousands of star cards (4k Jordans, 5k Barry Bonds, etc)...what I have trouble wrapping my head around from your discussion is how it can be more profitable to sell 100 cards at 34.99 than it is to sell 6 cards at 6.99? Sure you need to sell 5 of the 6-card lots to equal the 34.99 in income by selling one 100-card lot, but you also only sold 36 cards instead of 100 cards, so now you have 64 more cards to make 10 more 6-card lots. I know time is probably the biggest reason, but are there other reasons for creating a huge lot? For someone like me who will just be looking to sell my cards and in no hurry, and it won't my job, is there any reason for me to not sell in small lots or as single cards? I would probably start out by listing a bunch of cards of Jordan, Kobe, Ryan, Bonds, Jeter, Gretzky, Shaq, Bird, etc....I really will just be looking for how I can maximize my profit, and time won't be too much of a concern....

I still take photos of my listings. I have sold over 200 items by taking photos of my cards with my phone. It takes a lot of time...I probably need to stop being cheap and just pick up the Epson scanner.

Great tool but at $300 a month that is a hard pass. I would have to be selling $10,000 a month in just lots. Looking at his eBay store I don't even see the volume to suggest a payback on this product.

I've been following his KZbin channel for some time. It really is an amazing tool he's created. If I had it in me to do super bulk low end, I'd be all about this software.

Hey my guy, I feel like such a noob. I'm on eBay, looking for Return Preferences, but I cannot find that tab. I watched on the video several times, but it clicked right into the next screen. Is it on my Seller Dashboard? I don't see a toggle switch to turn off automatically accepting Returns. Thanks!

Great discussion. Only thing I disagree with is the importance of customer service to success. In this category, stuff trumps all. Before consignment sellers and buyer protections were a thing, one of ebay's most notorious card sellers would regularly auction off graded cards. There were threads everywhere about his trimmed cards, fakes, you name it. He regularly got negged for receiving checks and not shipping. Horrible feedback. Despite all that, his bgs/psa gems sold for market value just like the rest of us. Stuff trumps all. If it didn't, paul's high volume store would've worked better. That's not how it should be, but that's how it is.

For lots of 6 in an envelope, are you not shipping in top loaders?

my sales rank of the listing quality report is 365 out of 66,567 seller in the sports card category. I'm assuming that's good??

Gunna use this eventually for sure! So funny I was just telling my business partner / best friend we should go this route and try out bulk selling. Low and behold this gets put out today!

Pretty cool stuff! May need to rewatch to actually understand. Just a note to Paul. Not sure I enjoyed the “bashing” of card dealer Pro. It works fantastic for me, and at a much lower price point per month. Granted, it does not do the lot feature as of now. If your product is better, you do not need to discuss the others. Because I would bet CDP and/or Krono can add it, especially as the demand comes for it. Best of luck to him! And thanks for sharing also Ty!

Paul seems like a great guy!

Following! I have so many sports card singles worth <$10, in excellent condition, that I am going to start listing as lots. Do you use the Fujitsu scanner? Or may I ask: how do you scan in your cards? Does Chrono card have a camera/scanner function?

Loved this conversation! The listing quality report link, thank you!

65% buyer is crazy. 😂

Is there a trick to scanning chromium cards?

Well done, Ty!

❤❤❤❤

This is great! I used to do high volume low end but recently switched to low volume high end and was starting to get into high volume high end but getting more than 10 $500+ cards a week and 100 $100+ cards a week paying 70% is incredibly hard. Mixing in low end again could definitely help!

lot of nuggets of gold in this one.

Great video, Does anyone know how to get money from sales to go into Ebay balance. I want to sell cards to buy others without getting credit card or bank involved. Used to be able to do this with paypal and it was awesome. Any help would be appreciated.

Didn’t help me one bit. I have ZERO PROBLEMS selling and getting paid. Over 4 years and not any of these issues.

There's videos on haw to remove laminate. Watch those and learn.

Great video! But then every time I hear stories of selling cards for profit I get the sense that sellers trade their personal life in exchange of the whole process. I mean.. no more golf rounds, movie nights, park walks, excercise? There’s got to be a balanced fórmula…? But congrats! I dream of making a living off selling sports cards don’t get me wrong…

I have been doing reselling this year slowly learning everything about the process. I enjoy sports cards and have a lot I bought that I need to get listed. But is that going to hurt my other listings that I do? Should I make a separate eBay for my video games vs my sports cards? Would love to hear your thoughts please.

Im a vegas local and have been going to the store for most my needs and trade nights. Great, clean,friendly staff and lots of stock. Just bought a bunch of Update.
