Selling Guide
Where to Sell
TCGplayer (for high-volume sellers), eBay (in bulk lots), or local game stores (as trade-in bulk).
Selling Tips
Do not sell this item individually; the cost of a stamp exceeds the value of the card. Combine this with thousands of other cards to sell as a 'bulk lot' (typically $3-$5 per 1,000 cards) or use it to fill out a deck you are selling.
