Duel Masters cards

Hi

My son would like to sell some of his rare duel masters cards. I've had a look on eBay and none appear to be shifting on there. Does anyone have any suggestions for the best places to sell this kind of thing?

Thank you :D

    Are they not shifting, or are they not shifting for the prices people are asking? :)
    My TV is broken! :cry:
    Edit: refunded £515 for TV 1.5 years out of warranty - thank you Sale of Goods Act! :j

    I had to go and have a look on ebay as I'd never heard of them, and I come across most types of TCG cards, these have completely passed me by . They appear to be completely worthless, how odd, yet brand new packs from specialist shops are very expensive.

    Unless there is any specialist forum that trades these I think you may have a very expensive, but ultimately worthless collection.

    I've never even come across these at card conventions before though, are they new, is this the next big thing?

    Quite the opposite- wotc stopped making them in english in 2006. We only come across them fairly rarely.

    We just bundle them up when we've got 100 or so, they always sell, not fantastically well, but you might get a bit more if you have rare ones. This guy has about the price we usually get http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/100-RANDOM-DUELMASTERS-TRADING-CARDS_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trkparmsZ65Q3a12Q7c66Q3a2Q7c39Q3a1Q7c72Q3a1684Q7c293Q3a1Q7c294Q3a50QQ_trksidZp3286Q2ec0Q2em14QQhashZitem517f0425ecQQitemZ350023329260QQptZUKQ5fCollectablesQ5fTradingCardsQ5fRLQQsalenotsupported
    This is my opinion. There are many others like it but this is mine

    Hi,

    Yes, I think a specialist forum type thing was what I was after. I did see an American site where people could list cards but they seemed to stay on there until someone bought them which could, presumably, be ages! One of the cards he has was listed on there for $50 :eek: but whether it would actually sell for that, I have no idea!

    They were the craze when he was at primary school and he has a shoebox full of them (mainly worthless but a few rare ones) which he would like to sell to buy some cd's but, if he wouldn't get much for them, I think he'd rather hang on to the memories.

    Thanks anyway :D
