Love following this series. thanks so much for sharing with us. I wanted to do a series like this as well... have WAAYYY too much cards in my collection. Curious though, howcome you don't do sales on Ebay directly? Is it not worth it to do from NZ?
Yea bro we all have cards that we don’t need and can get some money back from this expensive hobby. Maybe if I get a huge collection or can’t sell stuff then I’ll go to the international market. Couple reasons though. The selling fees are like 13% I think so digs into the profit. And sending overseas is a bit of a drama. Takes time filling out the forms so can’t be bothered with that at the moment
Thanks for letting us know the story of it! Yeah I recently bought things off my facebook groups too! But, I too was kind of concerned about who i would be buying from in advance. Good to know my caution was probably warranted. How much total $$ are you intending to set aside to put into buying product and inventory for a business?
Yea it is a bit of a risk, my heckles are up a little bit now! Well I’ve put the $1400 or so in now. Hopefully make that back and some and just keep reinvesting till at least 10k. But I have just made a huge purchase which I’ll share when I get it. It is a very large sum🥶
That sucks man, but tbh the big red flag in it should have been the price, those charizard cards are 10-15 bucks. And the raichu was so damaged it isn’t hardly worth anything.
Call your bank and let them know that the goods were never sent. That it’s a fraudulent transaction and show them the proof. Chargeback the 80$. Bank will side in your favor. You don’t have to allow yourself to be scammed fyi.
Excited to find your content and see your journey into the card business
Thank you MrSuperaptor, hopefully it all works out🤝

It was in NZ. The new alone good condition is worth around 66. So it was a “good deal”
Mew
unfortunate on getting scammed, you live and you learn. best of luck with the rest of your journey
It is what it is… thank you mate

I did show them but on Facebook they said there isn’t to much they can do. I can pay $25 to ask to get the money back but no guarantee
what a scam, after getting money they just straight up became rude and not even send the product or money 🤬
Yea a bit of a low life
that sucks man. Nothing is worse than the feeling of getting scammed
Yea it’s shit but we carry on bro!
That sucks man
Do you not use PayPal? They have a goods and serives function that stops these types of scams
That’s a good shout next time I will think on that for a person who has no background
You didn't use PayPal?
Nah not really that big in NZ
I don't understand what language he's speaking honestly
😂😂 gibberish
ih he said tbe scam was 80 it was surely 800 lol
Hahah nah if it was I’d but truly gutted. Only was a few cards😮💨
