Love the part towards the end about adding the extra value to the collections you make, and selling them right beside your singles. Seems so obvious, but with everything that goes on in MTG finance, even the simplest things can be overlooked. Nice job!

While they aren’t going to be the most competitive, it’s easy to come up with some ideas based on draft archetypes if you get enough of a certain block. These decks can be sold for 5 bucks, and they’ll move so long as they don’t seem poor. If you can can make 6 decks (approximately 240 real cards and 120 lands), you can take that $4 pretty far. This applies more to people with a few hours of time on their hands and at least some limited competency.

Important thing I want to focus on, don’t rip of your customers!

Don’t take pictures of expensive rares that you will never include! Be honest about what you are shipping! Don’t include randomness.

I only use mtgo, so not very relevant to me but really interesting. This is a way to make money that never occured to me. Also it makes me happy ghat all those “crap” or “bulk” cards are going to go to someone who appreciates them.

I have usually been outing my bulk for $3/thousand at a local store. I tend to over-pick as well, so I am not worried about losing value there. However, I now realize that I could be getting much more value by outing bulk in other ways. Thanks for the great ideas for outing my bulk in the future!
