So, I finished foiling out my BUGstill list and decided that I'm bored of shiny cards and want to downgrade to non-foil Japanese. And don't worry MODS, I'm not on here to sell anything.

My question is -- What's the best way to move them on eBay? Would it make sense to sell the 'lot' of foil cards on eBay or rather to sell each set individually. I've been on magictraders but I haven't been too happy with how the site works as I'm a newcomer to the site and all.

Ideally, I want to move the entire foil collection and pick up all the cards in Japanese so, community, what's the best way to do that?

Since you're from New York, you might know Eli Kassis -- T-Organizer on these forums. If anyone could help you, I'd say it would be him -- he has piles of jap foil/miscuts/whatever, and I suspect that while he probably doesn't have the interest himself (or the Jap nonfoil himself), he knows someone who does. Some of the pimps can probably help, too (Matt comes to mind). Either way, I think that what you really need is someone with connections. The odds of finding someone who is interested in that trade are slim enough -- without utilizing your fellows, I doubt it'll happen at all.

Best of luck, though!

Move the collection as individual playsets if you want maximum price for your cards. If you want the quick sale, sell the entire collection as a lot.
