Giving up collecting and selling my collection

Unread post by Ragzzz »

Hey everyone

I haven’t been on this forum in a long while - and tbh wasn’t on it too much anyway


Over the last year unfortunately I’ve lost the passion with collecting

Mainly because I began to see a lot of cool decks coming out but unfortunately with 10000+ extra editions added to their campaigns

It reminded me too much of comic collecting - and fir me an endless pursuit

It’s definitely not something I see myself returning to - and I’m only keeping one designers cards in my collection

So my sale will be someone else’s benefit!

I don’t have the biggest collection- but I’ve got a couple of rarer decks

I recently sold one of my Green Rarebits on EBay a few months ago

But because I’m still very new to eBay - they restrict the amount you can sell so just doing some research on some of my particular decks

For example - I went to Giovanni’s site and couldn’t believe my eyes for Gold Monoliths. That…seems like an insane price for one deck personally so I’m here to get better clarification on better market rates

The decks I’m wondering about in particular are:

Omnia Suprema
Omnia Oscura
Gold Artisans
Gold Monoliths
Mint Launch edition
Virts 15
Gold Monarchs
Silver Monarchs
Dynistae
Delirium Prism
Arabesque Gold & Silver
NYSM Monarchs

I keep a close watch on eBay for TWI decks, so I can tell you the market price for your Gio decks. The reason the gold monolith is priced so high on Gios website is because he was only selling his last few in bundles. It was normal price in a bundle of decks. The high price was to keep people from buying it by itself. They are all sold out now. This is my evaluation of what the decks are worth, if someone else thinks different or has more current info speak up. This also is just what I saw them go for last, it could be more or less now.

Omnia Suprema with seal- $400
Omnia Suprema without seal- $150
Omnia Oscura- $40
Delirium Prism- $80
Gold Monolith- $150

Hello there! I can explain a bit about my prices - usually when I release a deck I try to keep the price as low as possible (considering rarity/production cost of course).
For example, Gold Monolith was released at $49 shipping included.
My goal is usually sell as many decks as possible on launch (which could be Kickstarter, my website or Patreon release).

After the release, I raise the price, basing it on the decks I have left. I keep a good price if the stock is high, or I raise it more if the stock is low (usually limited decks are lower stock, so more expensive).

When a deck is almost or sold out, I don't have interest to (or I cannot) sell it anymore. I usually raise the price A LOT in this case.
All the TWI decks you listed are "permanently sold out" - this is the reason of the crazy high prices of these (which are just indications - I don't have these for sale!).

Hope it helps!

Also I confirm this :-) These prices are more or less right (as far I know, Gold Monolith and Omnia Suprema without seal could worth more, and maybe Delirium Prism a little less - but are eBay values, anyone can set the price freely)
