Title: Helping boyfriend sell card set - Unlimited, Warrior, Women, and Prophets
Post by: NEBA on May 14, 2009, 11:46:22 AM
Hi, I'm trying to help my boyfriend sell his redemption cards and I thought here would be a good place to start.  He wants to try to sell them all as one big pack, but I noticed on at least one topic that he has some cards that some of you need.  SO, I wanted to post his list here and give you all access to the cards he has.  I put his cards in a chart with the 3 lions gaming prices.  The first column is the amount he has to sell. 

These cards have been played, but are all in nearly mint condition.  He is not selling any of the cards that are in les than mint condition, so none of the cards on this list have any signs of wear or any scratches.  He kept them in really good condition. They are all from either Prophets, Unlimited, Warriors or Women.

Also, he stopped collecting and playing in maybe 2000, so he has a lot of out of print and original printings of cards.  If you're interested in a card I have and I have it in the original printing, I can give you the choice of which one you want.  The only difference in the printings is the color in the corner, and some of the printings have the title of the card on top of the picture instead of in the border (this only applies to about two cards).

Another question I had was, does anyone know about the card Faith as Children?  My boyfriend has 3 copies that all are marked as both women and warrior.  So it has a W and a sword in the bottom left, and I was just wondering if that meant anything.

here (http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=fd48b96970510d91d956df2962098fcbe04e75f6e8ebb871)'s my updated chart with the 3 lions gaming prices.

I win more  ;D

Here are some general suggestions for success at selling a large number of cards.

1.  Pull out all the Ultrarare and Promo cards that you have.  Almost all of these have a gold border around them.
2.  Check out what those cards are worth by going here www.threelionsgaming.com (http://www.threelionsgaming.com).
3.  Decide whether you want to sell all the cards as individuals (so individual players will buy them) or in bulk.
     a.  Individuals: set the price far below what you see at the above site if you want to sell quickly.
          1.  If a card is worth more than $10, then sell it for 75% of value
          2.  If a card is worth between $5 and $10, then sell it for 50% of value
          3.  If a card is worth less than $5, then sell it for $1
     b.  Bulk: It depends on whether you want your collection to be bought by resellers or playgroup leaders.
          1.  Resellers: set the price at around half of what the total value of the Ultrarare/Promos are and wait for offers.
          2.  Playgroup leaders: split the collection into groups of 500 card sets.  Split the Ultrarare/Promos into equal
               groups so that each set gets an equal amount.  Then post the options on the forum and wait for offers.

It is an error card, albeit a very common one:

My scanner's messed up right now, I can't get it to scan a clear shot of it, but the image above is what it looks like.

Every copy of Faith as Children is like that, so nothing makes it especially valuable. I remember back in the day someone claimed it wasn't an error because it was based off the Women of the Bible card "Children," but I never bought that excuse. :)

Even if it were more valuable I wouldn't ask more than the price listed above for it.  I'm not trying to rip anyone off, I just want to get them out to people who actually collect/play.

So after you guys on this site take your pick and buy the individual cards you need, I'm also going to be doing repacks of about 250 or so.

I don't think the prices, special abilities, and possibly rarities correspond to the correct cards.  The first real notable one is Abner's Spear, which is a 2/4 enhancement with no SA, which is probably not worth $1.50.

THose listed prices are simply what this site (http://www.covenantgames.com/card_market.htm) quotes.  I copied and pasted from their chart because it had all the information about the cards as well.  That's the price they are selling those cards for.  If someone wanted to buy from me, I am willing to take the price according to that list and charge them maybe 75% of that.

Abner's Spear is listed as a Rare card, which is probably why it's $1.50.

Did you sort the list?  Something didn't get sorted right - I just downloaded that list to check and it lists Warriors Abner's Spear as being worth a quarter.  I can't figure out exactly what's wrong, but some it's off.

Thanks for that link, I had only found a selling price list, not a value price list.

I will update the list of prices later on tonight
