How I Lose Money to Make Money Selling Bulk Singles on TCGplayer

Other than the question of "Where do you get your bulk, and can I have some?" the question I'm most often asked is something along the lines of "How can you possibly be making money at this?" It's a question I'm very empathetic to because it was exactly the question I was asking a couple years ago, when I first started transitioning away from buylist picking and into scaling up listing bulk to TCGplayer. In this video, I explain why even if I do lose a little on some small fraction of orders, and then spend the time to ship those lossy orders, I still come out positive in a holistic sense. There's an argument to be made (and it often is) that if you make every aspect of your business not lose money, then the business as a whole won't lose money. It's hard to disagree with that, but there is an alternative argument that sometimes you can be okay with losing a little money here and there in order to take advantage of the opportunity to make more money later.

My website https://www.tcgbulkkings.com is the central hub to all my various social media enterprises. It's also got the bulk market information that I use to watch how the bulk market shifts over time. With the addition of the Shop, people can buy cards and things directly from me, and now bringing the membership service in-house rather than depending on a separate platform like Patreon I feel will really go a long way to making the site a destination for lots of people going forward. I hope you like the new additions! If you want to buy from the Shop or sell bulk to me, make sure you at least have a Free account, and if you want to support what I'm doing, or just get a decent discount in the Shop and a bit of free merch, go ahead and sign up for one of the Memberships! Cheers!
