I Tried Selling Pokémon Cards For 30 Days

Best pokemon card selling video I've seen in months man! I've only been selling hit cards on eBay and TCG Player is my next journey. Your perspective and advice was solid man. I appreciate it. And you're not kidding about the time consumption of sorting. I work a full time job and have a family and I've been sorting to go Live on TCG player for the last 3 month and I've barely scratched the surface of my inventory. So golden advice on the amount of time it takes.

[@TheLabTCG]

Thanks Professor Burch! It sure is. I've seen your channel before, keep up the great work on KZbin!

[@treetrimmerbear9899]

here is a couple tips Iv learned from selling on tcg for a few years now. Basic Index cards from the dollar store work great as divider’s, ya get like 300 for 1$ they also work great for hand written thank you cards for newer sellers fishing for positive feedback, this may take a few extra mins to hand write if ya have a bunch of orders but it helped me receive constant 5 star feedback and even had people specifically go outta there way to mention it in the review, when my TCG store was first getting started.. I got probly 5x the feedback when I would do this trick.

[@TheLabTCG]

Good tip!

[@neal7159]

[@KA1SZN]

9:15 bro said lemme teach y'all how to inflate the market. Normally I attribute this typa behavior to what is wrong with the hobby/game. Yet, I can't help but be impressed with the quality of this video and how good you are at conveying information (as well as honest). Solid video I'm impressed. Regardless if you make this video or not as this market matures people will naturally come to these conclusions so it is nice to share your experiences. I also love collecting damaged/HP cards, I call them WL (well loved) condition.

[@TheLabTCG]

Thanks for the comment! I agree that being money focused in pokemon can be bad for the hobby, but as a business, these are the types of strategies you should be employing to maximize your efforts. I find that too many sellers look to just liquidate their cards and think they are turning a profit. I wanted that piece to be an educational experience where people can learn that there is value to being a good seller. Glad you saw it in a positive light! Thanks for the comment, and keep giving those well loved cards a home!

[@StonesTradingCo]

Great Video! I've gotten into Pokemon selling through Live Streams, WhatNot, and my own personal website which has worked great for me. But I'm intrigued by the selling of commons, uncommons, rares, etc because I'm currently just selling bulk for $0.02 a card haha

[@TheLabTCG]

That is awesome Stone Plays! You have a really cool channel, i'm not surprised it has been going well for you! Selling bulk takes a lot of work, but it can be worth it if you put the time in.

[@StonesTradingCo]

@@TheLabTCG how much bulk do you deal with? because I typically open packs and end up around 15,000 bulk cards every two weeks

[@TheLabTCG]

Not nearly that much. I'm looking to increase the amount of bulk I process soon, but as of now, I'm getting back into listing everything I have. I'd be interested in discussing a bulk buying deal between us if you're looking to keep liquidating instead of selling singles. For the pack breaking side, liquidation might be a better use of your time. If you're interested, feel free to email me at [e-mail]

[@octistuborn9697]

Hey question, how can I know what cards are being sought after by players to be played

[@TheLabTCG]

Check out limitlesstcg.com

[@Jameson11ink]

I've listed 11k and sold 5k+ cards on ebay only. My journey has been long and full of frustration along with amazing changes. For my magic cards I put the 3 letter set code on the top of the bcw divider. all tcg games are split by year. So magic / pokemon / yugioh are all split by card game than by year card released. Than set. Than alphabetically. I can pull 50x card orders in a few mins now. Vs would be 20min+. Doing the big brain work before you sort and list is such a big deal. Started out with just a deck box of cards. Than 2, 3, 5 til I got a 5 row bcw box. Than 2, now 5. But my tcg seller journey is at its end. Moving my focus into video games and getting ungated on amazon to do fba where my time and profit on avg is 100x a tcg sale order. Leaving all 4k cards listed til end of the year for that ebay feedback than bull sell all to the next guy.

[@TheLabTCG]

That's an amazing story! I've done a decent bit with video games, I think it is much more lucrative than cards. Good call!

[@irresponsible-cardboard]

Thanks for releasing this video. I watched it when it came back basically trying to speedrun Seller Level 4. I've been selling One Piece, Magic, and Pokemon. Bulk to mid tier cards. Some higher end MTG cards so i can use those funds to buy a thermal printer lol. I actually think I've earned enough to buy it, but im not selling fast enough where I'm too lazy to write on an envelope lol.

[@TheLabTCG]

Thermal printers are a game changer. Highly recommend them once you get to that threshold where it makes sense!

[@untouchedpoke]

Going to start a new inventory involving boxes and booster packs. Should 15 boxes/packs be enough to start a business along with some unopened card packs?

[@TheLabTCG]

I wouldn't recommend opening sealed product for a starting inventory. It is high unlikely that you will be profitable.

[@untouchedpoke]

@@TheLabTCG I'm talking about sealed products. Should I start with 15/20 sealed products for a start of my business? Along side with bulk cards and unopened cards?

Am I allowed to have one account on tcgplayer with items listed in my direct inventory and items listed in a non direct inventory? Or do I have to choose all direct or all non direct?

I like the “fast nickel, slow dime” saying! But I’ve been doing everything you’ve talked about since I became a level four seller on TCGplayer back in September! What I was saying is you wanna be a specialty boutique and not Walmart! It’s crazy the amount of people that will buy from you because you have the full play sets even though you’re priced higher than others!

[@thatclassysheep1244]

Wait, so listing cards at a premium on TCGplayer can work? I’ve noticed that when I lost cards for their market value or higher they never sell, but I think that might just be because I am not a level 4 seller yet

[@TheLabTCG]

Yeah, seller rating, quantity, and opportunity all kinda play together. I'm never in a rush to sell my inventory, so that helps.

[@AllStarNES]

Pokemon usually release 3 or 4 items a year that are the must haves and are worth buying and holding for a few years. CP6 and Mythical Collection has 10x for me, cash flow is the obvious issue here but after you've completed a 5 year cycle you should be able to start seeing great returns. This year I have my eye on SV2a (the english version of it too) and TCG Classic so far.

[@TheLabTCG]

Yep, it is important to distinguish between cashflow and sealed product appreciation. I learned this early on trying to run this business. It is hard to hold onto sealed product with no way to continue financing the business. (Assuming no personal contributions). Great comment!

[@joerainah9360]

Never disappointed Will! Amazing content and information as always. I wish we had TCG player in the UK so I could try out some of these methods. 👊👊

[@TheLabTCG]

Thanks Joe! Hopefully they expand out there soon. I'll have to start making more ebay content to diversify the channel.

[@steve2468]

How much inventory do you need for tcg player direct?

[@TheLabTCG]

I believe it is somewhere close to 10,000. Not 100% sure, it is posted on their website.

[@trice9159]

Soo was selling pretty decent on tcg. But noticed havent had a sell since 05/2021. Any tips? I am a level 3 too.

[@TheLabTCG]

I would export your pricing data and adjust to the new market prices. If you list items at market, they will sell.

[@NateSchneider7]

The problem with doing that on tcgplayer is the option to optimize your cart after you’ve added all the cards. With higher prices and higher shipping you’ll probably lose out on sales that way

[@TheLabTCG]

Sure, you could, but I would rather make more on a per item basis then spend a lot of time packing lower margin orders. Personal preference, but methods work.

[@PreciseDullBlade]

I just registered for a TCG sellers account and about to start selling soon. I have a ton of supporter and trainer cards, do you think $.25 cards with $.99 shipping will sell even if I’m a new seller. You mentioned it works for you but you’ve already a solid seller rating.

[@TheLabTCG]

Thanks for the comment! It is unlikely that things will start selling with no feedback or sales history at a higher price. Your best bet is to look for cards that you have that are worth a little more and list those to start. That way, you can build up some sales history and get experience selling. Once you build up more inventory and sales, my method could work for you. Let me know if you have any more questions!

[@yern4184]

Great video! Is it possible to get a shipping tutorial for the $1 and $2 shipping prices? Thanks!

[@TheLabTCG]

Sure, can you clarify the question? I can make a video on how to ship pokemon cards.

[@Jaminn724]

Good info here. Some things to consider. At $320 after fees does that also include what it cost to acquire the inventory? You also mentioned supplies. Ones that you mentioned which seem optional, but also things like envelopes, stamps, etc... should be accounted for. Mentioning you put in a bunch of time on weekends is a little vague. With out an exact number lets assume 8hrs/day over 8 days/month that's ~$5/hr. Again not including supply costs, inventory costs, and any extra time spent on this. Like going to the post office or doing any work during the week. I still think you are in the black which is good, I do value my time more than that. More power to you if you enjoy it and you got the time to kill. I saw you in the comments mentioning a 90 day follow up. It would be nice to include this missing info and a full breakdown of profits/time. Make sure to reinvest all your profits into side hustle.

[@TheLabTCG]

Thanks for the comment, going to quickly jot down some info. $324 before fees would not include the cost of inventory. I further break down the cost of inventory and the cost of shipping shortly after, but you are correct, it would be 324 - 18.55 - $4 to 8 shipping. For the cost, I averaged the 371 items sold at $.05 each which is likely overstating. For the shipping, I believe it came to around $7. For TCGPlayer direct, I use bubble mailers and team bags that cost me under a couple cents each. Didn't break out the full math step by step, but laid out those costs in the video. TCGPlayer direct comes with the advantage that you only need to ship large orders once instead of multiple envelopes and stamps. So that rolls into the $7 shipping. The time spent was vague, I don't record the time it takes me to do, but my weekend is primarily consumed by producing content, listing cards, researching, and actually selling the cards. It is going to take me more time on weekends to do this because I am still actively listing a large amount of inventory that will sell overtime. Many of the cards that are being listed did not sell in this time period, but I expect them to overtime. I've been doing this for quite a while, it is not a get rich quick scheme. It is something I enjoy doing, and it takes a lot of work. I think some of the things you mentioned are sprinkled throughout my other videos if you're interested. For the next video, I'll be more detailed.

[@haruka3203]

I've also sell bulk on eBay for about 2 months now. I'm still unsure which one is better. It's just the shipping on ebay kind of kills it for profits. 100 bulk cards profiting at $2.50 after fees and shipping. 200 bulk cards profiting at $9.00 after fees and shipping. So basically the more they buy from me the more the profit is. Once they buy more than 300 cards, it can no longer fit in a small flat rate box, so then shipping becomes like $13 at that point and I lose money again :/

[@TheLabTCG]

It isn't easy, but it is totally possible to be profitable. In my opinion, the biggest upside to bulk is the availability of inventory that exists.

Tcgplayer customers, they have been selling around 2.2k on there for a while. Definitely try to sell some if you can get them that low!

@@TheLabTCG I'm from eu, 250 a box is pretty much going rate. Seems to be a small premium on cases though. Not sure about selling to USA since we don't pay taxes on anything. Strange how you guys are paying so much more for evolving skies, but everything else is so much cheaper

@@CAeuJohno123 yeah it is interesting. There definitely is a case premium!

Hey Joshua, thanks for the comment! This is a good point. Unfortunately, I don't know much about selling Pokémon cards outside of the United States. Soon I might be introducing a new platform that allows me to help out here a little bit more.
