New Hires For Inefficiency

We got some new hires.

They’re not the greatest, but what would you expect from a Kindergartener, and a Pre-Schooler. I got my two little ones “helping” out. And, they enjoy it. But, at the same time it took our time of 30 seconds to preparing an order to 5 minutes, or so, maybe more.

But, they love it.

They sit next to me, as I get things ready for them.

We start off with putting the card in the sleeve, then in the top loader. Put tape on the top loader, then tape the top loader to the paper, where I write the thank you note. After that we put the card in the envelope, where they lick the envelope to seal it. This part is their favorite for some reason. I’ve had to replace a couple of envelope after they were done. After that they get to put a stamp on the envelope and off it goes to where ever it’s destination is.

So, if you ever receive a card with 2 names on the note, just know that the 2 little ones helped put your order together.
Child Labor at it’s finest. Best part is that they get paid in Bulk Pokemon cards.

Sorta Sorting

Slowly going through bulk. I’ve had some Magic the Gathering bulk just sitting in boxes. Kardboard boxes that is. And then I bought another bulk lot. I started slowly going through them, listing them on TCGPlayer.com and eBay. (I still need to post a link to those 2. Soon, it’s on the Back Burner.) Some of you have come here through those sites.

I forgot where I was going with this.

I thought I had a point to share.

I’m enjoying it for the most part. I didn’t like going through Fallen Empires though. Different art for the same cards, and back with Fallen Empires there were no numbers on the cards. I would be sorting by name, not paying too much attention to the artwork, and then I would sort them again by art.

That was the process.

I am now starting on Guildpact. A couple hundred cards. Mostly Commons I think a saw a rare somewhere. I let you know on Instagram if it’s anything special.

Now, as we’ve been accumulating a lot of bulk. FFTCG, MTG, Pokemon, some Digimon and some other games as well, but not enough to mention. We’ve been toying with selling Bulk lots of played cards. Small and Large lots. If it’s something you’d be interested in, drop us a line and let us know.

April Out, May In

Happy May Day, and let’s get to it.

We started sending out monthly coupon codes, these codes have a one time use, but every month you will be getting a new one. They are good for 5% off your whole order. No limit on how much can be taken off.

What’s the code you say? For the month of May it is Meia. Now, don’t say I didn’t give you a code.

Other than that, all the sleeves and playmats we mentioned last time have been uploaded. It didn’t take us as much time as we thought it would. They are all there, and there will be more going up soon.

We still have out work cut out for us, as we’re still going through collections that we bought. We just got over 7000 MTG cards, and we have no idea what’s in them. We’d go through them right away, but we already have a couple of other collections that we picked up that we need to go through. And, Magic isn’t our top priority at the moment, but if you find a good deal, you got to pick it up.

Like the Digimon cards we picked up, a while ago. They starter selling, and it looks like they are already doing better than a couple of other TCGs we ended up getting.

Before I let you go, I’ll remind everyone that, we will buy your bulk. All of it. Any cards too, not just TCGs. Give us your Junk Wax, old Movie cards that were overprinted, Dead TCGS too. We’ll buy all of it. Just click on the Buylist or just send us an e-mail at kardboardkorner@gmail.com
