Did You Notice That?

Well, if you take a look at the top of the site, or in the menu if you’re on your phone, you’ll notice a little button that says TCGPlayer Shop. And we know that some people don’t like ordering from little shops like us, so we decided to give them another option.

That’s just one reason. As you already know Kardboard Korner’s main focus is Final Fantasy. And, this helps us list Singles from other games, without having to load up the site with tens of thousands of different cards that would just bog down the site.

Need more reasons? It gives us the answer to how we are going to post the Foils and Full Arts without having to create separate listings for each one. And we know you all like your foils and Full Arts.
We’re going to have a busy weekend once again.

And that’s just how we like it.

The Weekend Is Over

I think I have it figured out.

Hopefully that is.

But first, We did have a busy weekend. Did two shows back to back, and as always we had a good time. First how was the Countryside Sports card show, even though we don’t do much sports cards, one of my sons likes going, so I figure, let’s just go and have some fun. We did for the most part, I’ve known the organizer for quite some time now.

Didn’t do much sales wise, but that was expected. It’s a Sports card show, only 5% of the people that go there are interested in anything that’s not Sports cards.

GCon was better, plenty of people there, and I noticed that things are slowing down in general. Only did a quarter of what we did last year. Not many people are out there spending extra money. And, we need that money to buy more trading cards.
Which brings me to what I think I figured out.

A way to list more cards on the site without having to make multiple listing of the same cards in order to have a regular version and the foil version.

Be on the lookout for that new update coming up.

Got Bulk?

Just a reminder that we are buying Bulk. All of your bulk. If you have nothing to do with all those extra cards that are just gathering dust. We will take them off your hands and clear up all that space that they are taking in your home. Or office.

And, not just FFTCG, we’ll take your MTG, Pokemon, and anything else you might have.

Disney cards from the 90’s? Sure.

New Kids on the Block trading cards that your older sister handed to you cause you like trading cards? Yep, we’ll take those.

Sports Cards? Yeah we’ll take all of that as well. Even your Junk Wax.

We’re offering $10 per 1000 cards. If you think your cards aren’t bulk and they’re worth more. Just send me an e-mail and we’ll go from there.

You can also trade towards your purchase as well. If you want it to count towards a purchase, we’ll go to $15 per 1000 cards.

Either way you can e-mail us @ kardboardkorner@gmail.com and we’ll go from there.

Now, Where Is It?

The one thing I don’t like about moving everything around is, not being able to find what you’re looking for. Sure everything has it’s spot, but it’s hard to find the cards that you really don’t sell. Like today. I sold a Psylocke, from X-Men Series 2. Now, I listed these cards a couple of years ago, and I believe this is the second card I sold from that set.

Over time things will go to where they belong, but in the meantime in between the daily listings and shipping, we need to slowly move everything to it’s new place.

Plus I need to start labeling things. It’ll be a lot easier to find things when they are labeled with what’s inside them, instead of opening up all these white cardboard … I mean Kardboard boxes, and taking a look inside to see what’s in there.

We really don’t worry about these things until we need to. Then it’s too late.

Fun Filled Weekend

We just had a long weekend, and with no plans of doing anything, we decided to remodel and reorganize. The whole office. We started Sunday morning, and got most of it done by Monday night. Now it’s almost to where I want it to be. Just have to organize all of the bulk again. But, this won’t be the first or the last time we’ll have to sort the bulk. As new bulk comes in we have to sort it, and place it with our existing inventory.

It’s a fun process.

Put some music on, grab a beverage and go through the bulk. Always hoping that we’ll find a diamond. Sometimes we do, sometimes we don’t, but we always find a couple of rare cards.

Then it was off to getting everything ready to be tracked, and I hod one item that no matter what I tried, I could not get my shipping label printed. I had been trying for 2 days when I finally decided to contact eBay.

They looked into it and finally told me, that their stamps can not be used to send cards to P.O. Boxes. So, I did what any one would do. I wrote the address on the envelope and stuck a Forever Stamp on it, and sent it on it’s merry way.

And, that is how we spent our weekend.
