Okay, so yeah, I have a system, and it does not involve feeling, weighing, or seeing the packs ahead of time. In fact, I tell them when opening the box, which packs I want. (It's not that tough with Panini :-) )
Here is what I got besides base:
Framed Cedric Mullins RC Heirs to the Throne Blake Snell/David Price Christian Stewart RC T205 Series Justin Verlander Gallery of the Stars Ronald Acuna, Jr Downtown Mookie Betts (1:case hit) DK Signatures Holo Silver Shohie Ohtani AUTO
Trying to decide if I should sell the auto on EBAY. Looks like it is brining about $100 right now. |

marketing always seems to be the challenge. I was really hoping Kronozio would be a good site to use. Their scanning process is awesome, but there just isn't any traffic to drive the sales. https://www.kronozio.com/store/around-the-horn-sportscardsI am guessing the upload process on your site was fairly cumbersome. The look is clean and simple though. |

I have been working on posting them on Kronozio.com https://www.kronozio.com/store/around-the-horn-sportscardsTHe total lot is around 1000 cards from 1960 to 1970. They start pretty rough in the early 60s, but by 68-70 some EX+ cards start to show up. I have only gotten 250 posted so far, but hope to have the rest up by the end of the weekend. You won't find Mantle or Aaron, but there are a few stars scattered in the lot. There are even alot of Post cards in the lot! And..if you are trying to build these sets...I do have alot of others in my regular collection that you can hit me up with your needs. And while there...go ahead and snoop around! I have over 5000 cards on that site, including over 50 cards 1958 cards and an autographed rookie card of SB MVP winner Nick Foles! |

Yes, the program needs to be downloaded, that includes the templates and the scanning/bursting software and yes they are out of Canada. Needless to say, their hockey started off really strong, but the other sports have quickly caught up.
Commission is figured and collected on each sale, so there is no cap. |

I wanted to share this site with everyone. I found this about 6 months and have been very impressed with it and know it could really benefit others. Whether you are wanting to sell cards, or just use it as a bucket for your trade list, it could be a real time saver! The thing I like best is the imaging software they use. It is pretty accurate when it comes to bursting images of multiple cards at a time. For example, you can scan a full flatbed full of cards, or album pages and the program will separate the cards for you. Sometimes, you have to readjust the borders, but that it an easy process as well. And the program has logic allowing for the matching up of the backs of the cards whether straight up order, or can reverse the scans for doing album pages. It has a nice card data system for entering the card information and has a large amount of data for auto fill capability (for example, if you are entering football cards, in the team column you can enter GI and it will give you Giants options) making entering cards quick and easy. So far, I have entered over 4000 cards on their site, and yes, all for free. Oh, and it has location capability for identifying boxes, rows, and card numbers for you to find the card when you need it. If you are a seller, they don't have great traffic yet, but it seems that it should be growing. Their fees are reasonable enough for sellers (nothing to buyers that I am aware of). Approximately 15%, it is reasonable for the imaging software they use. The system also takes care of connecting the seller to paypal for you, removes the card(s) from your inventory automatically, and of course has a feedback section. Maybe you are like me and occasionally do shows. Well, their inventory system is easy enough to navigate with search capabilities and actions that allow you to remove the card from their site without removing the card from you inventory, so when you return from the show, you simply search the program for the card, and reactivate the listing. I am really impressed with the site. The biggest thing missing right now is the traffic. The guys running it are still aggressively updating the site and adding features all the time, like the capability to press an action button and BOOM, it's on EBAY too (fees get charged from both sites though). It will be exciting to see where this site goes. Check it out! Here is a link to my specific store!! https://www.kronozio.com/store/around-the-h...portscards?l=en |
