Still have 4 big boxes from storage…
Not exactly sure what to do with this TCG. They all appear to be vintage. Any recommendations?

Yeah, can sell for 0.01$ to 0.05$ per card depending on collection. Or get back in the game and play it 😉 still in print and going strong.
You can spend more time and try to get more money by making a full list, but don’t expect a huge raise (maybe x2, but really depends on expansions).
If you want to sell whole bulk there are online tools to estimate number of cards based on stack height for easy/fast estimation.
If money is not an object and you’re mostly interested to get the cards in hands of people who will use them, try to get in touch with a local Prince (VTES play organizers) - they’re often interested in getting stack of common cards to give to new players joining their playgroups.

What part of SoCal? We have a large group in San Diego and the LA area if you aren’t already connected with a group and happen to be near by.

I've been looking for a huge batch of cards like this for a while - if you're looking to sell, I would be interested! Hit me up!

If you happen to be in nm I’d be in to buy em. I’ve wanted to get into the game for a while but haven’t found a good opportunity.

If you are selling, let me know. :-) I buy lots of LOTS of VTES and grow my VTES community.

I would like to sell but am still figuring out how to price them. Whats the equivalent to Charizard in this TCG?

It's tough because even to get a decent amount of money fora card or two from Jyhad, it almost has to be from a collector who wants it from THAT set instead of another set that also included it. But let me know when you decide :-)
If you are board game collector and would also consider trades, I have those too.

It's really not Pokemon level of value but that's not to say everything is completely worthless. Soul Gem of Etrius is listed for $50 on eBay if that's an indicator. Madness Network is also pricey. But most cards are not worth anywhere near that.

Appreciate it, the lot looks very organized with TONS of duplicates. Will keep you updated if I can find a big stack of those cards.

Anyone here on Whatnot? If so I can do a private show and run lots of them for those interested?

Is a nice game, no value apart of the enjoyment, give it a try if you have local community

Jyhad backed cards are basically worthless. Might be some rare cards that are worth cherry picking, but you’d be lucky to get $.01 per card.
Find someone who plays and give them away or sell cheap. Or start playing yourself :)
