Offer Preference
Expected Vendor Offer $70 - $80 Roughly 75% of Market Value
💵 Cash offers are lower because the vendor must invest capital that could sit in stock for months before generating a profit.
Why Vendors Don't Pay 100%: If a card's market price is $100, selling it online will cost a vendor roughly 13% in marketplace fees, plus shipping and material costs. Paying 100% cash would mean losing money on every single sale. Expecting 70-80% cash for standard cards is highly realistic, friendly, and respectful!
