Weekly Reselling Roundup: Nov 3-9 (Reselling Community Recap)

If you've wondered what a reselling community actually tracks week to week, this is it. Between November 3 and November 9, our team flagged 10 new products (plus a returning one, the Electric Ocarina) across cards, collectibles and vinyl. Below is every one of them: what it is, the retail price, the date, and the recorded eBay sold figure with the date it was checked, where we have one.

If you're still deciding whether a reselling group is worth it, start with what a reselling group is. Every number here also lives on the releases page.

A note on the figures. "Sold" means the average of recent completed eBay sales on the date shown. It is a snapshot of what already happened, not a forecast and not a typical result. Fees, shipping, taxes and price drops all come out of any real-world profit, and many items never sell for more than retail.

The Four Biggest Gaps This Week

Ranked by percentage return over retail, with the dollar gap beside it. We had no separate buy-in figure for any of these, so every gap here is against retail, before fees and shipping.

1. Electric Ocarina of Time (HORI, Nintendo Store): a $96 gap (+192%). $49.99 retail, released November 5, and our team bought a lot of them. Ten completed eBay sales of the US version averaged $146 on November 9, up from the $110 we recorded on November 2. Japan-version imports and bundles are left out. More in our Electric Ocarina breakdown.
2. Pokémon TCG 30th Celebration Ultra-Premium Collection (Night, Umbreon): a $237 gap (+132%). $179.99 retail, released November 6. Ten completed eBay sales averaged $417 on November 7. Full breakdown in our Ultra-Premium Collection guide.
3. Starbucks 2026 Mystery Holiday Glass Bearista Cold Cup: a $31 gap (+78%). Starbucks had not published a price for the blind box, so we use our team's approximate $40 retail. Ten completed eBay sales averaged $71 on November 9, which is before the general in-store release on November 10. Expect that to move once more cups reach stores.
4. Nintendo Switch 2, Zelda 40th Anniversary Edition: a $241 gap (+46%). $519.99 retail, released October 29, and our team bought a lot of them last week. Ten completed eBay sales of the console on its own (bundles and non-US sales left out) averaged $761 on November 9, up from the $688 we recorded before launch. Details in our Zelda 40th Switch 2 breakdown.

These are four results from one week, not typical outcomes. At these price points one bad sale or one damaged item changes the math completely, so read them as a record of what happened, nothing more.

Cards

• 2026 Topps Chrome Football retail boxes (blaster, mega, hanger) - release, Nov 3. Retail formats hit stores first come, first served, and the Topps.com mega boxes sold out the same day. Mega Box is $79.99 and Value Box $44.99, per our Topps Chrome Football breakdown. Recorded sold: about $101 avg for the 2026 Mega Box, 10 sales (Nov 9), range $90 to $160. Most of those are presales of unsealed boxes, and the Fanatics-exclusive version, 2025 boxes, Bowman and multi-box lots are left out, so treat it as a rough read.
• Pokémon TCG 30th Celebration Ultra-Premium Collection (Night, Umbreon) - release, Nov 6, $179.99. Includes 29 booster packs, 2 foil promos, a playmat and 65 sleeves; the Day (Espeon) version released the same day. Recorded sold: $417 avg, 10 sales (Nov 7). See the price and resale guide.

Collectibles

• Nintendo Switch 2, The Legend of Zelda 40th Anniversary Edition - release, Oct 29, $519.99. A Triforce-design console, with the Pro Controller and carrying case released the same day; Ocarina of Time followed November 5. Recorded sold: $761 avg, 10 sales (Nov 9).
• Electric Ocarina of Time (HORI) - release, Nov 5, $49.99. The officially licensed electric ocarina for the Switch 2 Ocarina of Time remake, returning to the roundup after last week's check. Recorded sold: $146 avg, 10 sales (Nov 9).
• The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Playable Ocarina - drop, Nov 5, $34.99. Recorded sold: $206 avg, 10 sales (Nov 7).
• Godzilla Minus Zero popcorn buckets (AMC) - drop, Nov 7. Two buckets on AMC's online shop: the Godzilla figurine at $99.95 and Godzilla with villain at $59.95. Recorded sold: $112 avg, 10 sales (Nov 9), but that search covered both buckets together, so we don't compute a gap. These are bulky to ship, which eats into any resale margin.
• Starbucks 2026 Mystery Holiday Glass Bearista Cold Cup - drop, Nov 9. Blind box online drop ahead of the general in-store release on November 10. Retail about $40 (unannounced). Recorded sold: $71 avg, 10 sales (Nov 9).
• Chuck Sperry x Widespread Panic Milwaukee poster raffle - drop, Nov 7. An online raffle at 3 PM ET. Print runs range from 30 to 200 per variant. No retail price or sold figure recorded.
• Final Fantasy XIV: Evercold Collector's Box - ships Feb 23, 2027, $255. The physical box has an art box, a Reaper figure and a keychain; the game is not included. Preorders opened November 4. No recorded sold figure yet.

Vinyl

• My Chemical Romance, The Black Parade 20th Anniversary (New Jersey Devils exclusive LP) - ships Dec 11. A black and red variant on the band's store. No retail price recorded.
• Britney Spears, Britney 25th Anniversary Edition (Bad World) - preorder, Nov 6. Yellow and white splatter vinyl with bonus tracks. Made to order; ship date not announced. We checked eBay on November 9 and found too few matching sales to record a figure.

What a Reselling Group Tracks Week to Week

A good reselling group doesn't just list drops. It records the retail price, the real release date, and later what the product actually sold for, so members can judge a category by its record instead of by hype. That's the purpose of this roundup: a week of calls with the numbers written down.

Two honest caveats. Several items on this list have no recorded sold figure yet, either because they haven't released or because there weren't enough genuine matching sales to average. And we don't compute returns for rows where one search covers several variants and we can't match the sold figure to the right one; we leave those out rather than guess.

Our earlier analysis also found that searches for the plural "resell groups" are dominated by listicles, so we don't expect a roundup like this to compete there. This is written for people who want to see what a reselling community does in practice.

Coming Up

Still ahead from this week's flags: the general in-store Starbucks cup release on November 10, the New Jersey Devils Black Parade pressing shipping December 11, the Evercold Collector's Box on February 23, 2027, and the Britney 25th Anniversary pressing, whose ship date isn't announced. We'll check back with recorded sold figures as they come in.

Reselling carries risk, including fees, shipping, taxes, price drops and products that never sell. Nothing here is financial advice or a promise of profit.
