Ripped off
Review
Definitely feels like I got ripped off, especially considering I already graded my cards through other apps that showed the tcg prices connected to the right card as well. Just confused how over 1000 cards, with a value listed through tcg and dragon shield with three different market price listing my collection at around $700 boiled down to just over $100 from card conduit. Definitely will never be doing business with this company again.

It's never a good feeling when your assumption coming into a service are fueled by incorrect information and we do our very best to provide as much information as we can before anyone uses our service. It isn't clear what value was being looked at with Dragon Shield/Tcgplayer app in this instance, but the TCGLow value of the shipment if everything was Near Mint was $251. The assessed value was $166.76 before fees, and the fees amounted to $47.99. 66% of TCGlow value with such a low average card value is quite strong, and generally speaking most folks would be ecstatic with that result.
It is worth noting that of the 1,037 cards sent in with this shipment, 921 were deemed to be bulk. Bulk cards in particular can show TCGPlayer values of $0.05-$0.99+ in collection management apps, but those values do not reflect the cost to sell the cards (stamp, labor, materials, marketplace fees, etc.). Further, bulk cards can detract from your payout due to how our fee structure works, which reflects the labor needed to process the cards; sending a shipment primarily composed of bulk is something we typically advise against.
If you are using an app to value your collection, it is always recommended that you run an export file through our Estimate Tool to not only get a better idea of what you can expect from our service, but also a better idea of any incorrect data/assumptions that may be inherent in the collection management tool you are using.
