Because there hasn’t been a better option than PWCC I feel a lot of people have been stuck with them. I found eBay user acscollectibles. They told me they were a cosignment option so I asked to see if they might be an alternative for people. Here’s their response so I’m not misquoting them.
It might be an option for anyone looking for an alternative.
Honestly it won’t make much of a difference. PWCC has the inertia. As long as they are listing cards, which is a guarantee for the short term, the “saturation” won’t change, even if another consigner is more strategic.
But if people want to go another route more power to them! Healthy competition is good. However I know a few other consigners and their price difference is negligible. The only substantial difference in price are individuals who are patient and hold an item, like the guy I quoted or this guy typing.
I think it’s more a combination of price charged, knowledge of the hobby, and strategy that if I were to cosign I’d be looking into. Knowledge and price are the harder things to come by in an eBay cosigner, strategy is a personal preference.
Yeah we had a chat about this on discord after the auctions wrapped up (people should hop on we always hop on voice during pwcc auctions) … surprisingly low number of items considering the last two were around 1500 and this is less than 250. The auction is also starting in two weeks which is sooner than usual.
Some other interesting items are the PSA 10 Grand Party, the random SGC 10 1st Ed Base Hitmonchan holo (curious what that’ll go for) and the usual 1st ed base PSA 10s (venusaur, hitmonchan, chansey & gyarados this time).
I noticed there is a PSA 9 JR Meowth. Its weird to say but I am excited to watch that bid. Last eBay bidding auction I remember for the card was from TCA Gaming in October 2017. Super rare card and less known, so really hard to gauge price.
I really miss the ramblings of pokemonSyndicate [orsomethinglike that…?] loved his passionate “no raritanz” posts- he’s hopefully watching in on this auction & gettin’ back online soon to laugh at us @soon as this one hits 20k+
