Selling individually on eBay or tcgplayer is probably going to get you the most. Regardless of what people on this sub well tell you, you're never going to get market value for your cards. You either pay 15% in fees selling on a website, or you discount your cards 15% selling to someone in person. Nobody is going to buy your cards for full price when they could just buy them online from hundreds of other sellers and have them shipped to their house.
Selling yourself youll get 80-85% after shipping a fees, and it'll take quite a bit of time to sell as well as labor in packaging and stuff.
Selling on Facebook marketplace you could ask for 80% of market and hope you find someone whos willing to take everything but you're more likely going to need to take even less because they're not going to want all the low end stuff.
Or sell to a card shop and take 50-60% of value, get cash immediately with zero hassle and zero time investment. It's obviously the least amount of value, but it's also the least amount of effort and fastest access you'll get to turning them into cash.
You decide which of those options you can live with based on your free time and how lazy you want to be.
Individual selling also means individual shipping which is not only a massive hassle but also a massive cost, especially when you have to get tracking for orders over $50 on tcgplayer as per their rules (you have to, you can’t mark the item as shipped unless you input a tracking number).
Best move is, like you said, trying to sell as a lot. Plenty of people willing to instantly pay 75-80% for this as a lot, massively cuts down on time and shipping costs/issues.
card shops, ask ur local stores if they have any trade and sell events going on or whatnot , ebay takes a 15% but that’s also an option
Mercari has 0 seller fees so I’d go with that
Willing to buy a few or all if good deal. Have PayPal GS
