A retail shop who won’t let inventory go. Good luck with that approach

[@RobertLee-wi5kc]

He will sell just wants retail.

[@JonnyNumonic]

I think he has never hurt for money and not letting go of cards wont bother him. Seems a bit smug to me.

[@RobertLee-wi5kc]

@@JonnyNumonic He is still more collector than dealer. Or perhaps he just wants to get full value instead of selling wholesale. I stopped selling wholesale in my store because of the time it took away from customers plus i waned it available for the people that would pay my rent month in and out.

[@cadePH24]

You guys always make the best out of any situation that’s for sure. Love the CC attitude. Really cool shop for sure. Just with as much high value items he has, I can’t believe there was a negotiation over $50, especially with you guys who promote and educate about the hobby hustle and are literally making an entire episode about his shop for thousands to see. Deals are an essential part of the hobby ecosystem.

[@Chipper_slabs]

When he said Chipper 1/1, my ears perked up 😂 He definitely isn’t a seller, seems like he just got a shop to display his collection 😂

[@Looch1717]

Yeah funny. Maybe he'll just sell boxes.

[@carolinatarheels7903]

Yep, and unfortunately that is how shops are today. Like we’re supposed to be impressed and happen to have thousands of dollars to buy modern junk. I’ll stick to my small LCS that has been in business for 40 years because they actually want to sell cards.

[@card_zar]

I would be frustrated dealing with buying his cards lol.

[@ratedrstar8393]

This guy is a hoarder

[@Bowman_is_king]

Episodes with Ty and Marcel are the best

[@Johndeplume.]

Collectors don't necessarily make the best businessmen, and this is a glowing example. The new owner of the store seems like a good lad, but would be frustrating to deal with. It's his prerogative, of course, to sell his cards for whatever price he 'feels', but his unwillingness to let go of his stash gives the public more the impression that he's operating a free museum, more than a viable profit-based business. I wish him the best of luck. As always, thank you CC team for the upload. 👍

[@shanexyz3972]

I’d be surprised if this guy let you buy a gumball from the gumball machine. Good luck to him, but I can’t see him lasting a year (unless he’s super independently wealthy and just using the store as a front to buy for his PC.)

[@cardconnection4322]

Obviously independently wealthy

[@victorfrankenstein50202]

I’m assuming he has 10,000 Bitcoin…hope that works out for him too. Remember, when you hold 1,000 lbs of cardboard, like 10,000 imaginary numbers on a computer screen, that value can all be wiped away in a flash and end up worthless in the long run.

Also, the fact that you put him on your KZbin channel which is going to get thousands of views and get him more customers in his shop to see how he acted towards you is just unbelievable to me. Multiple card deal, cash and new customer, you helping promote his shop. This guy was not smart at all. I would never deal with this guy, EVER.

Chasing Cardboard is literally going to bring hundreds of people to that card shop by visiting and advertising his shop. Then he has a hard time giving him a deal.

Great to watch another episode. Missed you guys. Thank you Ty for falling for that joke in the beginning lol. So good!

[@dsdxtech]

Really cool looking little shop with a modest inventory. He just doesn't seem to want to part with a lot of his high end cards. As a shop owner and business you need to take the personal part out of the equation. I know it's hard to let go of some cards but you've got to make money. Great episode.

[@SightedRain40]

Marcel is the best always so much fun and awesome energy ❤️

That is wild. This guy has a shop to essentially boost his ego. He doesn't want to sell anything. I have been into a local silver & gold shop in PA and the guy was the exact same way. He actually told me he doesn't sell anything in-store. He essentially has a storefront for naive customers to come in and sell him their collections for way less than retail. That seems a lot like what this guy is doing with his shop.

[@jimhainline]

I can see the comments are mostly tearing Kevin apart, which is unfortunate. I have a hobby shop in the same city, and I have dealt with Kevin for years and have had hundreds of transactions with him without any issues. I've found him to be straight forward and smart.

[@rippingandflippingcards4135]

When your dealing with someone who does not need the money, probably is operating his shop of walk in buys and stuff in his collection he does not hold dear as much, your not buying at 60% of comps ever. 80 was not really on the table. better qualifying questions and letting them walk the path works best typically. Either way, glad to see someone just having fun in their own version of collecting. Kudos Kevin.

O.K., after rewatching this again, I gotta say I really like Kevin. Love that shop, and his passion for collecting, BUT, visiting his shop to make a purchase…not so sure about that one.

[@apoetpicker]

22% average in fees? How'd that happen? If you have an ebay store its less than 10%. At any rate, Kevin is just getting started and will adjust if needed. Right now he clearly is having fun and isnt dialed into a business only mindset, which is really refreshing.

[@CHASINGCARDBOARD]

Less than 10%....tell us more about this deal you got. ;-) -- Base FVF on the ANCHOR store is 12.35%... that's not including Promotion and Marketing fees...which are on average 10%.

Right now ebay is 13.25% and they Include the tax and any shipping cost in that number. Tough when u offer free shipping too.

This dude doesn’t seem like he’s in a financial crisis. Dude lowkey has money just humble about it. I think he enjoys selling but more collecting and has the shop just to show off his collection which is nothing wrong with that. Dude isn’t worried about the money.

[@jacobanderson5045]

I've done business with Kevin for years. He's a humble, easygoing guy, and really easy to work with. He's got a massive collection and, because he's just started the shop, I think he's still in the process of determining what's "inventory" vs what's PC. He's more than happy to share his favorite cards with people, which is what I expect happened here. He's a blast to hang out with and talk cards, and I highly recommend checking his place out if you're in the area.

[@CHASINGCARDBOARD]

100% agree!

[@bouncerslabrealnature9143]

Asking eBay prices is delusional because you aren't counting the fees, time and postage and handling. (And the fact that you can lose everything you send if a customer says item not as described and eBay will give them a immediate refund and you will get nothing in return including your merchandise. ) Also: People order $50.00 and up items and cancel the order immediately... eBay gives them a immediate refund out of your account and you have to wait for their payment but they can cancel any card order and rob you completely. ⚠️ Dealt with it all and never again will I use eBay as a selling platform.

He is a super nice guy and has some amazing cards! He's been more than willing to do deals at shows and trade nights. I'll be visiting his shop for sure. On a personal note, with the higher end cards, I think losing the potential gains from the mahomes rookie might be fueling the desire to hold vs sell.

[@homeroscollection]

I started collecting cards recently and have been watching your episodes along with some other collectors on what the trends are and what to stay away from. I am noticing something that is rather scary and possibly taking profits out of everyone's pocket. Collectors need to understand the difference between markup and margin. If the end game is to make money off of cards, that is lesson 101.

I think he seems to already have more means than the average person. I don’t think he was worried about the money. But I do see think he views the shop as a museum for his collection more than a functional money making business that has a P/L sheet to atone for each quarter. They are right about the realities of keeping those doors open if a shop if what he wants long term his mindset and approach will definitely HAVE to change. My 2 cents. Tell you have a “feeling” you’re gonna hold that Jordan indefinitely Also - “had an offer on eBay” TAKE IT! eBay charges 13% min. on top of everything’s else The pops were a huge sign for me as well.
