    Just hit level 4 yesterday sales are starting to pick up what do you mean by floor price like listing all your cards for that amount or only listing cards above that value?

    • @TNCards
      @TNCards  14 дней назад

      Floor price is the price you’ll set for yourself as the lowest price you’ll have in your store. Example, you have a card worth 0.20 (market value)… but your floor price is 0.30… so you list that 0.20 for 0.30 in your store.

    20 cents is what I currently use , but most likely increasing to 25. It might be slow at first but my current inventory is 16k and the more variety the better.

      I sold a lot of cards around the $0.50 to get to level 4, depends on how much of a loss you want to take early on for it lol.

      In order to fulfill the Restock Instruction (RI) provided by TCG Direct, they require you to reach over $300 in sales through their platform. The number of cards you need to send will vary depending on your sales volume. For example, in my recent sale of 676 cards, I paid just under $8 for shipping via Pirate Ship to TCG Direct.
      It’s important to note that TCG Direct charges a 50% fee on any cards priced under $3.00. For instance, if a card is priced at $0.04, you would only receive $0.02 after the fee. To mitigate this, I avoid listing cards priced at $0.01, and I typically sell them for no less than $0.04 each.

      That's not a bad idea, get rid of them in larger packs... probably make out pretty good considering all of the fees and packing material you'd need to ship those orders.

    Most stores break even/lose money on singles. But if you notice with direct sellers. They offer free shipping on a threshold. That is what drives profits. But you can't do that with a narrow inventory.
    I also think you're eating into your profits by going pro too early. If your inventory is

      I noticed it's free shipping on orders over $50. I wonder if there's a way to increase the threshold to free shipping on sales over $10. I feel like that would be a good threshold for my shop.
      I hear what you're saying, but the massprice feature just makes it worth it to me due to my limited amount of time I have to dedicate to the card shop.

      To your first point, yeah that could work. I'm not sure how to implement it, you could try reaching out to TCGplayer support and see what they say.
