    There’s a limited supply of the big hitting cards… the boxes are getting older and not as readily available, less is being opened every day, people are opening newer cheaper more readily available sets. I still don’t get how singles aren’t priced more…. Moonbreon is like 1 in 700+ packs. Even if you bought at release for BB that’s still like $2k in packs to get a moonbreon…. lol.

    The price of a card only tells half the tale. If you need to build a cart from 15 Sellers on the marketplace then being able to ship everything from just one Seller (Direct or otherwise) can save you money even when the product prices are individually higher.

    I'm a verified seller and the two prime catchers I sold moved faster than any other cards I've ever listed. It was pretty crazy. Literally 20-30 seconds after posting they were gone. Also, I'm glad you mentioned automated pricing updates. I might manually adjust 40-50 cards out of the 5000 I have listed right now. The other ones are all automatically adjusted with a script. That can lead to issues.

    Morty's use to be $35 that shot up 😂 same with Magikarp but i guess Magikarp is that hard to pull? I don't think Magikarp is worth a Iono Alt Art.

    24 minutes of rambling and most of what was explained was you don’t know. The card displayed in the box is the lowest NM direct price not the lowest listed price. Also, many direct sellers price high because people are lazy and use the tcg optimizer and it puts the cheapest direct sell card in their cart.

      The market spans thousands of cards and thousands of sellers that operate with a wide range of business models - there can be no definitive proof to ANY of this. Stare into alphabet soup and read the words and you can fake connections all you want. I have 10s of thousands of transactions on the platform, and while I didn't make the alphabet soup, I've been serving it for a LONG time.

    Been waiting for someone to make a vid like this since opposum bud vid and all the yappin on twitter. Everyone's got this pegged so wrong, the truth is some folks set their pricing to +100% TCG Market when they sell on direct. If you can't figure out why then mind your beeswax 😂

    I was only 8 minutes in your video and I stopped and unsubscribed. I call B.S. I know you have a vested interest in using and PROMOTING TCG direct however I have used the "other" sellers on TCG player who you disrespected and have NEVER had an issue. I don't trust you. You are no better than full of #### Rudy pushing own agenda instead of just giving good information. good luck to you.

      he didnt say anything to promote direct he literally just described how it worked didn't once encourage anyone to overpay for direct unless you want to pay a premium for the convenience
