maidenmate91 Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 I was enjoying when users in the sales forum were listing cards when they first heated up. Is there a dedicated card selling thread? If not I believe there should be! The renewed interest in cards has infected me as well, and I would like another avenue to buy here with trusted sellers. Thoughts?

comicdonna Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 I think it's a good idea, and there s a need for one. I will bring it up to the admins. maidenmate91, onlyweaknesskryptonite and Skylath 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That way they can see that the boards aren't such a horrible place afterall... That we can cater to everyone's hobbies. Just a thought..... But really I just want another place to buy cool cards.

I think that it will be a learning curve for many of you and it will be overly disruptive for you all to start buying and selling here. THAT IS NOT YOUR FAULT THOUGH... Whenever a new member starts to buy and sell, they are obviously unfamiliar with the board selling rules. There are many obvious ones such as: Do not ask for friends and family Do not add PayPal fees List a return policy Among others... So when a newer member starts to sell, they usually experience some growing pains, not due to anything about them personally but due to their unfamiliarity as to how to operate within that set of rules. Now if it is one or two members the overall disruption is minimal and is dealt with and corrected. But... every single one of the card collectors would be a newer seller and would experience these growing pains to some degree. When many experience smaller issues, then all of them combined would cause a larger disruption in the beginning. maidenmate91 and JEFFROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LuckyMouse Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 I would love to see an area dedicated to buy/sell/trade! I'm a mom, I can handle any young ruffians who can't follow the rules. BuscemasAvengers and maidenmate91 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galen130 Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 (edited) Currently, I have a raw comic-related card sales thread under Mixed Age Threads and Misc...but a dedicated thread would be nice.

Tan MYWZWKJH Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 Would love to have a buy/sell marketplace like the CGC comics have, would be beneficial for the entire CGC community! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuckyMouse Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Alrighty, I'm bumping this thread, because I think this is coming soon. A few days ago there was a sub-forum right under the "Ask CGC (Trading Cards)" called "Trading Card Marketplace". It wasn't functional and didn't stay there for long, but I'm hopeful it comes back.
