Title: Selling a lot of 455 cards... several rares
Post by: loganx80 on September 15, 2010, 04:05:27 PM
Hello,
I'm finally giving up my collection.  I haven't played in a couple of years and don't have the time to go through all of my cards and price them individually.  My loss is your gain.  I actually started to mark which ones I had on a spreadsheet, and have 357 listed on there, but apparently never finished it, since I just counted 455 in my collection.

If you have a specific question, let me know otherwise I'm selling as-is, so make me an offer.  Best offer gets this.  There is a reserve, but I'm not sure what that is yet.  I'm not too attached.  I'm kind of doing the Dave Ramsey thing and have to let a few things go.  Someday I'd like to actually own my house...

I actually started a website to sell my cards on and I was planning to buy/sell on there, but again, I don't have the time.  If you're interested, I might be able to throw in the website too.

If you're picking and choosing, I'd have to have $15 (shipping included) for these 11 cards;  I'd prefer an offer on the whole group though...

Not to be harsh, but you are looking at what these cards are going for these days in the forums right?  I just don't want you to see you disappointed by setting you sights to high.

To everyone.  I'm not trying to sell just the rares... I'm trying to sell them all.  Someone asked about specific ones, so I gave a price for those.  If you don't like the pricing, make me an offer.  Thank you for the $20 offer, do I have others?

Just to make sure we all understand, you only have the cards with a "quantity" listed beside them, correct?  Or do you have every card on the spreadsheet?  Sorry, but this spreadsheet is just confusing me.

^probably a good thing to answer.  I thought it was all of them...

Sorry about all of the confusion.  I have 455 cards.  At one point in time I was recording them on this spreadsheet, but it is not complete and doesn't have about 100 of my cards on there.  The cards with quantities next to them are the cards that I have, plus I have around 100 more not indicated there.

I don't think so...  at least according to that spreadsheet, some are worth up to $15, but I don't know who made that or how accurate it is.  Quite a few were listed at $3.00 and $4.00.  I know that these are retail prices, but I'm looking more for wholesale prices if you take the whole group.  So it appears that I have a $25.00 bid.  Anyone else interested?

That extra 100 cards you haven't listed could drastically change what people are willing to bid, all of the prophet and limited/unlimited rares (the ones in green/blue on the spreadsheet) were reduced to .25 in value earlier this year, so that's something to think about also...

can you list you top ten most valuable cards?

OK, hopefully this will help out a little bit.  I did a quick scan through my set and found the following.  Since I'm not an expert, I'm not sure which set some of these came from, so I always went with the lower price.  You may find some surprise treasures in this set if you buy it.  This is going off the price list from Three Lions Gaming as of 9/4/2010.

2 x Chariot of Fire: $10.00
1 x New Jerusalem (Lamb): $7.50
2 x Swift Horses: $5.00
1 x Baptism : $5.00
2 x Jacob : $4.00
2 x Dragon Raid : $3.75
1 x Cherubim : $2.50
1 x Bear: $2.50
2 x Christian Martyr : $2.00
1 x Belt of Truth : $2.00
1 x Ira : $2.00
1 x Gabriel : $2.00
1 x Burial : $2.00
2 x New Jerusalem : $1.50
4 x Son of God :  $1.00
4 x Angel of the Lord : $1.00
1 x Sinful Kingdom : $1.00
1 x Burning Censor : $1.00
2 x Coat of Many Colors : $1.00
1 x Claudia : $1.00
1 x Siege : $1.00
1 x David : $1.00
2 x Treachery of Jezebel : $1.00
2 x Rizpah's Sackcloth : $1.00
1 x Mask of Self-Glorification: $1.00

Those cards alone have retail prices of almost $100.00.  There are over 400 other cards, mostly common.  Anyone want to offer higher than $25.00 now?

Honestly friend, in today's market, if you get even 30% of TLG value on cards before the new expansion,you are doing well. Best of luck to you!

Understood.  I'd be happy to get 30% of value on ALL of the cards.  In the worst case scenario, I have about $100 worth listed above.  I also have 400 more cards that are mainly commons, but not all.  Lets pretend they are all commons at $.25 each.  That's another $100 worth.  If someone offered me 30% of $200 ($60.00), I'd take it in a heartbeat.  It appears that I'm going to take less, and I'll still be happy.  It seems that several are attacking me as if I'm trying to get too much.  I offered this as an auction style where the best bidder takes it.  Why exactly am I being attacked?  I'm not talking to anyone specifically, just that's the way it has felt to me.  Off of my soapbox...

Anyway, what you need to know is that I'm offering this to the highest bidder and today is the day that I will make the decision.  Anyone willing to offer more than $25?  That is 12.5% of the retail value and includes shipping!!!

Don't feel attacked. It's hard to say that "it's outrageous to expect 30% or even 20% for those cards" without sounding like you're on the attack. However, if someone wants to pay that for your cards, I don't have a problem with it. I wouldn't myself but I suppose everyone places different values on cards.

You might want to set a minimum bid.

Allrighty then,
I thought I had two bids and I guess I didn't (guess you were right TechnoEthicist).  Let's do it this way.  Will anyone give me $20 for my 455 cards including shipping?  See above for the rares that are included in this.

2 x Chariot of Fire: $10.00
1 x New Jerusalem (Lamb): $7.50
2 x Dragon Raid : $3.75
These are the cards that might get someone's attention.  CoF's often go for just a couple bucks, and DR's probably would too.  NJ's go for a bit higher.  I would guess that you would get someone to buy this lot of cards for around $15.

I have submitted an offer earlier today for $20 which includes the price of shipping. Just for the record...
