I say this all because last time I traded in loads of random stuff and I felt the total wasn't EXACTLY what I think it was worth..
So after their initial appraisal, would it be possible to partition out certain stuff then and deal with it in specific lots?

When you say, random, do you mean like EVERYTHING, not just TF, not just Joes, like all sorts of toy related stuff?

I only ask because i can see getting greater value with selling individual pieces from boardies but it's hard if you have tons of random stuff, unable to take so many pictures and then having to deal with so many boardies.

Yeah, I don't see why not! It's just that, how they do it is very.. "GET ER DONE" sorta. They price your items so that they know they'll get a profit off it even if it's at your expense.

And it wasn't like.. RANDOM random.. not like I tried to sell them a toilet seat. I had G1's, G3's, GI Joes, and etc. toys.

Honestly, Toy Traders is only worth selling to if you want a quick buck. And if it's one thing I should note.. It's INSTORE CREDIT ONLY that you recieve.

I only traded all that stuff so I could AFFORD their Takara MP-10 they had in case. I traded 180 worth of "random" stuff so I paid about 100 for MP-10.

Booya! I'm surprised the bigger stores don't have it yet then.

Oh no guarantee they've even left Japan yet. A3U just wants their money. Hopefully it'll arrive next week?

OMG I CAN'T WAAAAAAAAIT. I'm going to need to play that one Lonely Island (you know..) song as soon as I have him in hand.

And sorry, Nomad. I was just joshing around. Didn't mean to get your hopes up. Hahaha.

BH seems to make the most sense. No idea about the SKUs I'm afraid.
