This is just an Idea, but it would be interesting to go in on a case with somebody. Those would be much harder to forge fakes out of. I Recently picked up 4 FN and 3 SCS packs from different sellers and those were all legit. That seller is the only bad experience i’ve had.
June 4, 2019 at 10:03 AM #5553BenKeymasterhow is wholesalegaming?
HWG is excellent. I have purchased from them multiple times and things have gone well.
June 4, 2019 at 11:06 AM #5555Ruben SantiagoParticipantHere is a link to a private video about the packs. I am uploading a video with further evidence that it is ccgcastle.
June 4, 2019 at 11:37 AM #5556jetmoto-1996ParticipantI had too much faith in the world and only noticed something was fishy once i started noticing the scratch marks you get on the card where the white shows through. But i haven’t ever seen that in a brand new pack before. So i did the same and reported them on Ebay. Hopefully that will get shut down if they get two reports on the same thing.
June 7, 2019 at 8:12 AM #5603jetmoto-1996ParticipantHi everyone, What would you put the value of a lot with Grinder and Terrox at? I was bidding for it but it got kind of high so i let it go. The seller contacted me and said another set is available if i want it but Ebay singles/small lots catch a ridiculous price sometimes. I know Grinder is arguably the best all around cursed ship, so i could see paying up to like $15 for it. but how rare is terrox?
Thanks all
June 7, 2019 at 9:01 AM #5604Fitzroy_McCandlessParticipant@Ruben Santiago I’ve purchased a lot from Hill’s Wholesale gaming and while you can only really find bulk items (so you’re spending at least 50 bucks) they always have come in good condition and rather quickly. They have a lot of the major sets but not everything. They are a good reliable resource with pricing that per pack often beats other sources, but they only sell large lots and have a limited selection.
June 7, 2019 at 4:11 PM #5605BenKeymasterWhat would you put the value of a lot with Grinder and Terrox at?
They’re both somewhat rare, but nothing too crazy. I wouldn’t want to pay more than $5-$10 for either of them personally. There have been a bunch of those lots up with a huge range in final bid price.
June 12, 2019 at 8:37 PM #5726Ruben SantiagoParticipantget it quickly. 15 packs of Fire and Steel for dirty cheap. I just picked up 30 packs and they have two left
June 13, 2019 at 9:35 PM #5769BenKeymasterLooking around and found some stuff. Punched Guichuan: https://ebay.to/2wTPHV0
Small SM lot worth bidding on: https://ebay.to/2WFdck9
Random CC crew lot with a couple Promo/LE’s: https://ebay.to/2MOT5eR
June 14, 2019 at 7:34 AM #5770Ruben SantiagoParticipantMmm, that Guichuan look like something I need.

2 listings ending in 10 days with a bonus incentive added in:
36 sealed packages of South China Seas
https://www.ebay.ca/itm/173946098412
36 packages of Oceans Edge
https://www.ebay.ca/itm/173946098206
June 27, 2019 at 9:16 AM #6532BenKeymaster@xeriousone: Welcome aboard the ship! 😀 Glad to have ye aboard.

Sounds familiar; “hack attempt registered” perhaps. XD 2019 has definitely been the fall of MT. At least we have plenty of options in terms of keeping the community going.
Those lots look great, impressive quantity. With very nice starting bids and free shipping I think both should sell well without issue.
June 27, 2019 at 11:51 AM #6543KevinParticipantIf they sell for the starting prices I will have lost money on both of them… I came up with the shipping cost, added in a $6 box I bought for shipping and a 20% fee eBay will charge. If I get some decent bidding I have 16 more 36 packs to sell in the next few months.

Who knows what will happen, but it’s very possible that the SCS box could go for a lot, and definitely way more than the starting bid. I just shared both on the Buy/Sell/Trade Facebook group to get them more exposure.
16 lots of 36 packs?! That’s a lot!! O_O 😀 (576 packs; 1,152 ships!)
June 28, 2019 at 5:36 PM #6650BenKeymasterSavage Shores SR pack (punched) for $15: https://ebay.to/2YlcIMD
July 1, 2019 at 6:29 AM #6715BenKeymaster$46 for the Grinder and Terrox is a new high for that pair I think. Still a some solid auctions going on.
July 1, 2019 at 4:52 PM #6760BenKeymasterAnyone else notice how scarce DJC has become? Used to be one of the easiest and cheapest sets to acquire. Now HWG is out and there’s hardly anything on eBay.
CC 3 pack auction: https://ebay.to/2JizNt8
Some rare stuff up; Grand Wind and some DJC LE’s: https://ebay.to/306O4QE
July 4, 2019 at 7:16 PM #6907BenKeymasterThis could be worth it based on the rares… not too exciting though if the punched ship aren’t included. https://ebay.to/2FTx0FZ
Ghostly Revenant: https://ebay.to/2XsBwGp
July 6, 2019 at 1:23 PM #7108KevinParticipantcoming down to the final 12 hours of my 2 auctions if anyone wants a shot at them:
36 packs of SCS with an SCS box included.
If the bidding gets much higher I have several more boxes I may offer out to second place and lower bidders.
July 7, 2019 at 8:12 AM #7113BenKeymaster@xeriousone: Seems you made out reasonably well. $7 (US)/pack is about average for SCS.
Few lots ending today, and then it will be interesting to see what the DJC LE’s go for. Seems to be a little less demand for LE’s like that the past few years (I think), maybe because more and more collectors are satisfied over the years and a lot of those ships aren’t super interesting to players. (at least that’s my theory haha)
July 8, 2019 at 6:13 AM #7223BenKeymastereBay heating up
guardian958 has changed some of their items to auctions. If they continue to do that as they relist things, could be a big bidding bonanza on eBay soon. ? Also seeing a Delusion up for grabs.
https://ebay.to/2JjzpMiJuly 10, 2019 at 3:37 AM #7385KevinParticipantI have listed 4 buy-it-now Auctions each with 72 packs of cards:
36 Pirates of the South China Seas and 36 Pirates of the Mysterious Islands
36 Pirates of the South China Seas 36 Pirates of the Revolution Unlimited
36 Pirates of the South China Seas 36 Pirates at Oceans End
Pirates of the Cursed Seas 72 sealed packages Pirates of the South China Seas
July 10, 2019 at 3:59 AM #7386KevinParticipantJuly 11, 2019 at 9:00 AM #7403BenKeymasterMI packs and some singles including the DJC LE’s ending today! (depending on time zone)
Also, kendarus may have lowered their prices on some lots. Some of them look pretty solid for someone getting started that’s looking to play, especially the punched BC lot. (look at description – looks like only deckplates for most of the punched lots)
July 11, 2019 at 10:06 PM #7441BenKeymasterI have to admit I was wrong about the DJC LE’s. Thought there might be a bit less demand nowadays. The roundup:
Tarantula: $31
Pandora’s Box: $10.50
Judas: $36
Blackgate: $31.50
Dance: $6.50
Salem: $29.50
Black Gentleman: $24.50
El Pluton: $10.50Grand Wind: $26
Guess attention now shifts to the kendarus auctions: https://ebay.to/30xZz3H
Starting to wonder if a bunch of those will get crazy too… though much less rare stuff in most of them.July 12, 2019 at 10:16 AM #7449BenKeymasterMaking the rounds and finding a few things:
4 pounds of cards, total mystery lot: https://ebay.to/2JEfE0Z
Same thing but 8 pounds: https://ebay.to/2XKlQto
Lot with some useful crew: https://ebay.to/2JEEkX5
Roanoke: https://ebay.to/2SelcTz
HMS Titan: https://ebay.to/30taHPeJuly 14, 2019 at 7:52 AM #7496BenKeymasterBunch of nice auctions ending today/tonight!
Edit: Overall a few things went for a little more than I expected. Big lot of OE for $89. The common/uncommon lot of OE/RotF was weird, since it went for $35, whereas the previous similar lot with a bunch of rares only went for $15.
July 14, 2019 at 10:52 PM #7532BenKeymasterLet the bidding continue! Some new listings up: https://ebay.to/2NVjS9W
July 15, 2019 at 8:12 AM #7533BenKeymasterHere is a seller with a lot of Spanish Main stuff. Plus a custom made island/terrain set.
July 17, 2019 at 4:09 PM #7653BenKeymasterHere’s a chance at some Viking and Frozen North stuff: https://ebay.to/2LWJOzh
Smaller than the others but another weighted lot; this time 3 pounds: https://ebay.to/2GiWzjV
