Glad someone finds Ebay fees funny. must be nice.i find it funny when people complain about eBay's fee structure. where else can you get that kind of exposure to sell your crap?
As for the "hot rc's" the OP mentioned, you need to have those players best rookie year cards to move. Cabrera's 2000 TT Auto is always easy to sell.
If I gave you the real take on it, chances are good I wouldn't have the freedom to ever post again on Freedom Card Board.
I did notice your Tulo gold is on ebay on best offer 100.00 cheaper then it is here at FCB. Keep the prices as accurate as you can.
I should also note that while gaming cards (i.e. Pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh, etc etc) are popular, they aren't as mainstream as they used to be in the late '90s and early '00s.
In fact, when I go to the card isle, I see more kids looking at baseball cards than I see looking at Magic cards.
Topps and mlb are the absolute worst in terms of marketing cards.

Oh trust me, Yughio is still quite hot. Every time I go to Walmart or Target there is at least two kids looking at the Yughio cards and the card aisle may have 15-20 feet of space on it and 2/3rds of that space is dedicated soley to CCG's such as Magic or Yughio and Pokemon along with the CCG sleeves and Deck Protector stuff. It's insane but it's always easy to see where the retail outlets get their bread and butter card wise.
If you are topps, what is there to market? They are being well fed by those of us buying cases from hobby shops and such. Do you normally need to put bait out for hungry animals? No, they'll come of their own volition.
As for MLB, I don't think they even know how to market cards nor do I think they feel it's their job to do it. I think they really believe topps makes money for them so they must be doing something right and therefore why spend any extra money to do anything different.

Its down because my wife said I cant spend what I want to.
