Curious if you are selling with CollX Pro of the free version? I posted just few lower end baseball cards just to get used to the listing process and was getting notifications to go to the Pro version to “feature” the cards. It feels like any listings not associated with the Pro version will get buried. $100 a year isn’t terrible and probably offsets the difference in eBay fees but at the same time, all these subscriptions add up fast and was curious if you success was off the free version or pro version.

Great question. There are a ton of great benefits to being a pro, so check them out here: https://www.collx.app/collx-pro. Related to cost, though, Pro subscribers get a $10 credit every month to use towards purchasing cards on the CollX Marketplace. So, in theory, you can probably cancel out your Pro expense by buying and selling!

How does shipping work on the combined purchases where the buyer puts together a package of say 10 cards?

Great info. I have over 2.5k cards listed on eBay. New to CollX and info that was given was great it’s time to move them to CollX.

Great question. You set your shipping settings, selecting for CollX to generate the label or for you to do it on your own separately. Having CollX do it is recommended.

From there, select your default mail type, which is either standard envelope or ground advantage.

Then, enter your weights for cards “raw in top loader” and graded slabbed.”

If a buyer purchases a weight amount below the standard envelope threshold, that’s what they’ll pay and that’s what you’ll ship. Anything over is automatically calculated as ground advantage. You can also override the defaults for individual cards.

Got it, so once the individual weight of cards surpasses the 3-4 oz threshold, the shipping swaps to the small package price.

I have been selling on COLLX since January. I do like it better than eBay. I did find using CDP IT does not always send the card to COLLX. So I have to double check COLLX to verify.

I use Pirate ship for my labels. Interested in what you use for pre-pay shipping labels?

Yeah I think there is a bug right now. I haven’t been able to push anything from CDP to CollX for a couple of days now. Support says they are working on it.
