Also, nice to meet another denimhead : ) I am stuck hard on my Nudie Slim Jims at the moment, contemplating another raw selvage purchase though and open to suggestions…

I know what it means in something like fantasy baseball, but that definition doesn't make any sense in the context of buying singles at a shop.

Also it makes me giggle that you're selling a pair of APCs. I can't imagine there being too many Magic players who also know what raw selvage means, haha.

I pulled down that auction (it hadn't gone public yet) and I am rethinking what to list it at, or whether I want to hold. I'm also checking buylists, but I don't think they'll beat Ebay. This is why I love comments on these articles, I often get a chance to learn, just like you do! : )

You lose $0.50 for listing it BIN, you lose $12% for the sale to eBay, and if you are a preferred Paypal account holder, you lose 2.9% + $0.29 for processing on that end, plus the actual cost of shipping: $0.44 for a stamp, $0.10 for envelope/sleeve.

$25.75 – $0.50 – $2.85 – $0.75 – $0.29 – $0.44 – $0.10 = $20.82

Net result: $0.82 profit. How could this have been anything but a HOLD for you?
