JimPlaysNintendo (@jplaysnintendo) reportedCatalog NES Game 42- Rampage Rampage was released as an arcade game in 1986 before being ported over to the NES as well as many other systems. The franchise and its rights are owned by Warner Bros after they purchased Midway Games. The idea is simple. You are transformed into 3 monsters that look like King Kong, Godzilla, and Werewolf. You get to run around smashing buildings, collecting power up food items and such. While the actual sales figures are not known it did go down as one of the most popular rentals at the time. The arcade version of the game was a massive hit. Today if you are looking to collect you can find the game on Ebay and such for roughly $15 to $20 and a nice boxed version for around $100 #NES #Rampage

The Iced Coffee Hour (@TheICHpodcast) reportedGary King Pokémon reveals he turned down a $17,000,000 offer for his Charizard collection, bought a $700 PSA 10 Charizard that's now worth over $300,000, and listed his Charizard collection for $49,000,000 on eBay. “I got a substantial offer for all of the English base ones, which amounts to about 80.

Mamanator (@mamanator23) reported@LlcPickaxe Always look up the value on eBay, sometimes they can be an insane amount higher than the CL value it should honestly be illegal that they can do that. For example I had a $500 CL value on a card and it sold on eBay for $1k+. Obv not comparable here but still is an issue

EverydayReseller (@EverydayResell) reportedDay 125 Total sales: $320.98 Buy cost: $30.07 eBay earnings: $190.04 Refunds: $70.50 (Address issue, purchased again) Net profit: $159.97 ROI: 531% 3 item day. Another solid day. Nothing crazy. No home runs. Just a few good items sold to a few good buyers. The longer I do this, the more I realize that success in reselling isn't about hitting homeruns every day. It's about consistently sourcing good inventory at the right price, listing it, and letting the singles add up. One item becomes two. Two become five. Five become hundreds over time. Day after day, the process compounds. Most people overestimate what one day can do and underestimate what 125 days of consistency can do. Keep sourcing. Keep listing. Keep learning. The results take care of themselves. Still building. #Reselling #BuildInPublic

Bosh Cards (@BoshCards) reported@AshtonEck8 Yeah I think he had a terrible take tbh, both online and shows have their pros/cons, but I absolutely think you can find better deals at shows. Unless your sniping new listings on eBay for a deal, almost everything is at “comps” or a little above

Saying a buyers return is delivered to me in NY when the Fed ex clearly says the item is in TX and I am in NY. This has NOT been returned.

meh. (@cryofthewild) reported@kithgil420 The more eBay gets "bought" by GameStop the more GME gets shorted, and until the results of the shareholding voting is announced it's likely to go sideways and/or down until then. As I see it only big pop we'd get is if the proposals fail next month.

EverydayReseller (@EverydayResell) reportedFree Shipping: The Silent Sales Booster I started wondering about buyer paid shipping vs free shipping especially when the total cost to the buyer ends up exactly the same. One listing with a higher price and free shipping another with a lower price plus a separate shipping fee. It pulled me down a rabbit hole of reports and studies and I wanted to share what I found because it's pretty eye opening for anyone flipping on eBay. Free shipping often wins on conversions and sales speed even when the buyer pays the same amount overall. Amazon Prime set the bar high. Recent data puts US Prime members around 180 to 200 million so roughly 60 to 70 percent of adults have free fast shipping as their normal. Shoppers expect it, 66% want free on every order, 80% expect it above a threshold and up to 84% have bought specifically because shipping was waived. Free just feels like a win emotionally and people jump. Charging shipping as a separate line creates extra FRICTION. Buyers lock onto the lower item price and treat the shipping fee like an annoying add on. They downplay it or get irritated even when the math is identical. That extra step at checkout can make them hesitate or bounce. Tran's 2020 and 2024 analyses of eBay Germany data confirm buyers shrug off small separate shipping fees but demand jumps sharply when it's free. Marketplace insights seal it. Free shipping listings get 15 to 25 percent more views and 10 to 18 percent better conversion rates even at matching totals. eBay favors them in search visibility too which helps everything compound. Free cuts the hassle. No surprise fees at checkout. Feels cleaner and more valuable. For my flips I've gone 100% to free shipping after some experimenting over the last 4 months. Data points to faster sales less push back though category and margins decide the final call. Anyone else gone down this rabbit hole? You charging separate or going free?

Mike Staropoli (@pdxmikestar) reported@friarhodg @BosCardHunter eBay verification flawed too. They send the cards/slabs to PSA for verification. If there is an issue, they tell the buyer they have to deal with PSA. The verification guarantee is not what eBay claims.

SlabSquatch Sports Cards (@WaxMetrix) reported2026 Topps Series 2- Further Analysis Despite reading like the pack-odds version of War & Peace, but with zero literary value, my Series 2 write-up somehow still left more unanswered questions than I’m comfortable with. So in this post, I want to hit a few more things that are relevant if you’re clawing your way through the Series 2 streets. First, I spent so much time buried in the numbers that I barely touched the checklist. And honestly, there are some really fascinating chases in this product. Credit where it’s due: @Topps has been adding some legitimately epic chases to flagship releases lately. I know Hobby and Jumbo prices are up. I get why people don’t love that. But it’s also worth saying this: there aren’t many products in this price range where you still have a real shot at pulling nukes worth thousands. 1) PSA Graded Buybacks For Series 1, Topps teased that they were releasing 75 of the best Topps cards of all time as graded redemptions throughout the year. Based on the odds, I calculated there should have been 19 of the 75 inserted into Series 1 product. This time around, though they were left off the odds sheet, Topps has stated there are 20 more of these to chase. These include: 1952 Topps Andy Pafko 1952 Topps Eddie Matthews 1953 Topps Jackie Robinson 1954 Topps Hank Aaron 1955 Topps Roberto Clemente 1956 Topps Mickey Mantle 1957 Topps Hank Aaron 1960 Topps Mickey Mantle All Star 1961 Topps Roger Maris 1969 Topps Reggie Jackson 1975 Topps George Brett 1977 Topps Reggie Jackson 1982 Topps Traded Cal Ripken 1985 Topps Kirby Puckett 1986 Topps Traded Bo Jackson 1989 Topps Traded Ken Griffey Jr 1993 Topps Derek Jeter 2008 Topps Update Clayton Kershaw 2012 Topps Bryce Harper 2018 Topps Ronald Acuna Jr. Bat Down Some of these are legitimately massive. Some not so much. But I suspect most people would be happy to pull any one of these from a pack of brand new cards. In Series 1, they were available in Hobby & Jumbo formats only, and split fairly evenly between the two. I suspect that will remain consistent in Series 2. 2) Through the Years and Legend Golden Mirrors Through the Years Golden Mirrors caught us by surprise in Series 1, and we were all left wondering how rare they truly were until a new odds sheet was released about the time Celebration boxes came out. It turns out both of these versions of the popular Golden Mirror Image Variations ended up having the same print run, ~23 copies each. Honestly, it wouldn't surprise me if the odds on these are generous considering so few have shown up for sale...23 copies even seems a bit high. The Series 1 Ohtani, Judge, and Griffey deservedly went absolutely nuclear. I am a huge fan of some of the Legend Golden Mirrors and have already set up ebay searches for some. Print runs stayed consistent for Series 2. I'm showing Print Runs of ~24 on both. They're incredibly tough, but the most cost effective formats for pulling both of these, as well as regular Golden Mirror Variations are: 1) Fat Packs, 2) Super boxes, 3) Hangers/Megas/Floor & Retail Displays. If I'm being honest, I don't know the difference in "Floor Display" and Retail Display boxes. But the odds are very similar so I would treat them as interchangeable. You can typically find them at major retailers, they typically run ~$70 and sometimes sold by the pack. 3) Other Rare Inserts Heavy Lumber & Home Field (no longer Home Field Advantage) print runs remained consistent with Series 1, I have them both at ~475 copies ea. The most cost-effective way to pull both of these is again 1) Fat Packs, 2) Super Boxes, 3) Hangers/Megas/Floor & Retail Displays are almost identical. One addition to the Home Field checklist is a Lady Liberty Home Field found only in Fanatics Fest boxes and limited to 25 copies. Seems like a great hit, but I'm very curious how much a an extremely scarce, presumed Statue of Liberty Home Field will sell for. All Aces/All Kings are showing similar print runs at ~240 copies ea. These are wildly popular and have turned into some monster chases. Great checklists on both of these. Best way to find? This is becoming a trend- 1) Fat packs, 2) Super Boxes, 3) Hangers/Megas/Floor & Retail Displays 4) Short Print Rookies 4 of the biggest rookies in the product are extremely-tough-to-pull SPs: McGonigle, Wetherholt, Benge, & Crawford. However, checking out the print runs can be a bit deceptive. My calculations have them at ~4,777 copies ea, which seems crazy high based on how tough they are to pull. But this is due to the miniscule 4-card checklist. If you're looking to pick these up, give it some time. They always start out expensive but fall drastically as buyers realize how many were produced. The most cost-effective way to pull? Once again- 1) Fat Packs, 2) Super Boxes, 3) Hangers/Megas/Floor & Retail Displays 5) Player Number Variations Found in Hobby boxes only, this variation has a bit of a checkered past. Originally introduced as numbered to the player's jersey number, the last few versions we've seen have not been serial numbered. Not only that, but they were also clearly not limited to the corresponding player's jersey number, as evidenced by available copies of some low numbered players. For Series 2, I can't guarantee which way Topps went with these. If there are an equal number of copies of each, then the print runs should be ~20 copies. They are definitely rare, but proceed with caution. Watch out for low numbered players like Ozzie Albies (1), Ketel Marte (4), and Freddie Freeman (5). If we see more than one Albies listed, then I would expect there to be 20 produced. 6) Sneaky low Print Runs There are are few examples that stuck out as having sneaky low print runs. If you are a value seeker, these may be worth keeping an eye on because you may just run across a deal. 1) Pink Diamante- ~160 ea PR was ~295 ea in Series 1, but due to less Hangers produced, they are distinctly lower for S2. 2) Aqua Rainbow Foil- ~375 ea Down from ~515 ea in Series 1. 3) Aqua Holo Foil- ~165 ea Retail SKUs only, down from ~230 ea in Series 1. 4) True Photo Variations- ~95 ea PRs typically around 100, but some sellers may not be aware. 5) 1952 Rookie Variation- ~95 ea If you don't know what you're looking at, these can tend to blend in. Seems like there's been a plethora of versions of 1952 base cards in the past, but these have become quite rare in 2026 flagship releases. 6) Cover Athletes Autos- ~15 ea I can't fathom why Topps wouldn't slap a serial number on these. It would be an easy way to add value since it would be clear how rare they are. 7) Base Major League Material Autos- ~50 ea These have parallels starting with Gold /50. Weirdly, the base versions have strikingly similar odds as the Golds, resulting in almost exactly the same print runs. I'm not saying the base will carry as much value as the Golds /50 because that /50 is worth something. But don't be afraid to grab a deal on one of the base because they're pretty rare. 8) City Connect Swatch Autos- ~56 ea Same deal as the MLM Base autos. There are Golds /50. But there are only ~56 of each base. Odds appear different because some Golds were withheld, resulting in only ~38 of each Gold actually being inserted into the product. Do with that what you will. 9) Rounding the Bases Relics- ~135 ea Non-existent in Series 1, but ~150 ea in Series 2 last year. Even if you're not a fan of plain, non-auto relics, these are pretty badass. Nice heavy thick cards with enclosed base relics. 10) Funko Base Cards- ~290 ea These are down considerably from PRs of ~490 in Series 1. Checklist took a big step back though...no Ohtani. 11) Diamond Dust- ~240 ea I've heard these look amazing in hand. Only found in Hobby & Jumbo formats. In summary, any flagship rip can start to feel like work when you’re ripping it in bulk, and Series 2 is no different. There will be stretches where the product feels like an absolute snoozefest. But despite the added production, I applaud Topps for building in incrementally more massive chases to keep the product vibrant between naps. #thehobby #SlabSquatchAnalytics #2026ToppsSeries2

He game time the one I have and I got a flash cart for it but honestly, I haven’t played it much.
