Logan510 Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 KPR should start his own journal on his road to success Who is KPR? He's the who just paid too much for an ASM 129 Sorry, you joined the boards after Hector.

Number 6 Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 but everyone now is chasing after hot comics. No, not everyone, not even close. That assumption will prevent you from succeeding. Yeah. That's what it is. It's that assumption. To be fair, I didn't say that assumption alone would prevent him from succeeding. Clearly, that's just the tipy-tip of the iceberg.

That assumption will prevent you from succeeding. Perhaps saying everyone wasn't the best idea but it's certainly a trend and I don't see it often here but I see it from time to time.

uchiha101 Posted September 29, 2016 Author Share Posted September 29, 2016 but everyone now is chasing after hot comics. No, not everyone, not even close. That assumption will prevent you from succeeding. although if one assumed that everyone was chasing after hot comics...what on earth would make you think you could do it better (or even the same) as anyone (let alone EVERYONE) else??? Are you better at math? Do you have a better memory? Do you have more comic knowledge? More business skills? More capital to buy in bigger lots or take bigger risks or hedge your losses (do you know what 'hedge' means?)? Better comic connections for buying or selling? Any sort of geographical advantage? Better organization skills? Can you process information faster? A better pulse of the current market in order to speculate on comics before they get hot? Local access to untapped supplies? Better at grading? Better at spotting restoration? I don't remember ever saying that I'm better then anyone much less everyone and to all those questions below my answer is no except for a geographical advantage I have a big one I live walking distance away from a convention 2 thrift shops 5 pawn shops 2 church sales and finally 2 comic book shops Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uchiha101 Posted September 29, 2016 Author Share Posted September 29, 2016 The thing with eBay is this: .. every Seller (whether they actually are or not) needs to be seen to be as Professional as possible and make their listings also look as Professional as possible. I'm pointing out the obvious to many on here, but Gabe might not see the pitfalls for successful selling on the 'bay. Gabe, If you put blurry pics and hardly any notes in the listing .. potential buyers will just walk away. I see it all the time, people are fickle: if it doesn't look good (nevermind if the price is good or not) they will move on to the next listing. A typical example is if you have your own website: if it doesn't grab the first-time visitor within 10-15 seconds .. they're gone. Make your listings as good as you possibly can .. and also investigate eBay's Templates (they frame the main description). Looks are pretty much everything. I didn't think people make judgement calls that quickly if they want to buy something or not I was going to take better pics and I didn't even expect to get as many offers as I did before the listing got taken down.

I agree I'm in tighter situations then most are and one of the biggest problems is shipping as that turns people off that's also something I'm working on.
