Despite the constant success of the business, there have been some challenges. Maden remembered a time when Tikotok banned Bill Island’s break account after a simple misconception.
“We are fans of big commanders, so our first Messup was buying commanders (cards) in our shop and had to return themselves,” says Maden. “Teltok doesn’t really like when you return to people, so it’s better to just get (product) out of stock. When we did so twice, they kept our money for 60 days.”
Steven added, “They thought we were buying them artificially looking good and leaving themselves good reviews.” “Commander is the most expensive team because they have Jaden Daniels, Dukabaz, (and) basically, no one wants to buy commanders because it’s a lot of money – you’re talking about a $ 100 every time. So we will buy them only and pay them.
Now, the father and son’s team only removes stock -carrying cards to avoid this problem.
“You have to continue the temperament.”
Maden and Steven’s expansion network helps maintain their stock and increase their enthusiasm plan. “I like to meet some great people who buy us, cut the cards and spend time with (my father),” says Maden.
Steven added, “It seemed strange a few years ago (meeting with friends), but now when we have drowned ourselves, we will be looking for goods for ourselves at the card shop, and we will be like, ‘Oh, Mary will like this card, or John will like this card.” “And we get it for them. We show it directly to them, and they are passionate, like, ‘Oh, how much do you want for it?’ We like, ‘man, we’re going to send you.
