I've sold nearly all my cards so far and got around 15€ but I only have around 300 (5 Foil) from around 70 games

get rid of duplicate cards using trading, purchase remaining cards to complete set. wait till winter sale, craft all badges on first day of sale and sell all the event trading cards u get. U will make more profit.

Thanks for the tip, sadly I dont have much cards left.

I cant follow that logic. Sales cards first day 0,15-0,20€ = 0,13-0,18€ after fee.
Even a Cheap Card set with minimum of 5 Cards would be 5 x 0,07€ what would be 0,25€ after fees.
That may be useful for freebie game card farmers, but for everything else its not useful.

It is useful to level up and get some profitz at the same time. But it you don't care about steam levels then it is better to sell the cards anytime.

i never said u make profit when u purchase all cards, u must own the game n get drops and purchase remaining cards.
Comment has been collapsed.
Thats even worse, lets stay at the same example es above.
you have the drops. Means you have 3 of 5 Cards with 0,07€. Now you go and buy 2 Cards for 0,14€ to get 0,13€-0,18€ = -0,01 - 0,04€ Profit. Selling said 3 Cards would be 3 x 0,05€ = 0,15€ after Fee

Yeah, unless Valve brings back Badge Event, where crafting badges gives people some rewards, there's always more money in selling cards that finishing badges.
Main reason why I still didn't sell mine cards. And having quite fat wallet thanks to CSGO.

Theres a button named Sell Multi items or so like nr 1 above. then xou mark the items you want to sell from there it goes like in the picture. thats for my version of sih which is pretty old. i mean to remember seeing one that had buttons to sell all items without marking or so.

It will probably look different for you. Since my version was as far as i remember already ago a light version for Firefox of the normal chrome version. later then it got bought by someone else and brought out new. and i didnt hear much good about the version of csgofast or whatever the new owner is called.
I think people changed since then to alternatives like that:

ok, now im getting confuse a bit. Can i mesage you when i need help? thanks anyway
Comment has been collapsed.
You can try, but as said im using an old version for firefox from previous maker of the addon. that version isnt even anymore available unless someone backed it up somewhere.
So 50 / 50 Chance that i can answer it.

Funny how you made 300$ purely out of cards and still have that abysmal ratio ....

???
OP only started doing giveaways 2 weeks ago, but it's not like people with bad ratios are inferior to those with better ones. It's not greedy or selfish. He can choose what he does with his money.

It's not greedy or selfish.
I happen to disagree.
In fact, I consider it a slap in the face to the SG community.
Comment has been collapsed.
You're welcome to disagree. My wording definitely could've been better. I just don't believe that people should be called out for having a bad ratio.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yes it is greedy and selfish. Later part is right - he can choose whatever he wants to do with his money, but it doesn't change the fact that what he chooses to do with it is greedy and selfish.

I'm planning to level up a bit with the cards I have, just 2 or 3 levels, but I'm waiting for the winter sale to maximize it. Then I might just sell the excess cards, but all my cards convined are worth less than $50 so I don't know if it's worth the hassle of selling over 700 cards.
Comment has been collapsed.
you can make the process easier. steam inventory helper to sell all cards with a few clicks.
steam desktop authenticator to auto confirm sell listings.
Comment has been collapsed.
Eh, I guess. But right now I'm more interested in crafting badges, my backlog is already huge enough as it is.
Thanks for the tip tho, I might use it later down the line :)

I made up to around 400-500$ selling cards, I wish you luck man! And may you get many foils (I once sold one for 10 bucks!)
Comment has been collapsed.
my foils so far sold for 28, 27, 21, 16, 15, 8 (!)

Had a game once, where normal cards sold for ~2€ ... Bought the game itself for 2.5€ and sold the cards for 5 ^^
Good old times.
Comment has been collapsed.
wow, that's amazing
the most I got from normal cards was around 10c
but sometimes I bought games for 0,14 and sold the cards for 0,15 so 1c win 🙃

There are still cards, but in general these are rarly bought.
So you put it up, check every day, that noone put it up cheaper and eventually you sell it ^^.

Last week I managed to sell three foils for the same game for €2.61 each. And it was for a mediocre bundled HOG.
Comment has been collapsed.
Bought them, as I collect foil badges. But the prices went up so much on the other 3 that it became unfeasable, so I sold a few of the foils I deemed too expensive in the mid/long run.
Comment has been collapsed.
so you made money with buying and then reselling?
I thought it was impossible, because of the transaction fees you have to pay
Comment has been collapsed.
Considering I bought them under 40 cents (the maximum price I pay for bundle game foils), yes, I made money on that. It requires dwindling stocks over time, which is highly unusual for bundle games.

I'll probably do the same as I did to level up during the previous sales; stack badges and craft them when the community trading cards are live. The bonus cards will then be sold since you'll also get those during the actual sale anyway.
I wish you good luck in selling those stash of cards!

I've been collecting cards for so long now.
I used to use Idle Master, but when ASF got released I've been using that ever since.
Plus having over 3000 games in my library, resulted in thousands of trading cards in my inventory.
I had no idea what to do with them.
I was using steamtradematcher to trade duplicate cards (with profits) and occasionally craft a badge.
A while ago, I saw that according to steam.tools, my cards were worth over 600 euros.
Then I have been talking to friends and as steam sale is coming soon, I finally decided to get rid off them all by selling them to the steam market.
Thanks to various tools, it's pretty easy to list them all on the market for the right price.
But it's gonna be hard to sell them all.
Wish me good luck!
