Taylor Swift Restocks Signed Showgirl CDs

TLOAS isn’t Swift’s most talked about album, but that barely matters when her actual signature is involved. Nothing with her autograph on it has trouble finding a buyer, restock or not.

It’s been eight months since new signed merchandise for this record last hit the site, and there was no announcement tied to today’s release. The leading theory circulating among fans is that this batch is leftover inventory getting cleared out ahead of a bigger anniversary push later this year.

Whatever the reason, the mechanics were familiar. The CD and hand signed photo listing came in four different photo variants, with the store limiting orders to four copies per customer and U.S. billing and shipping addresses only. Stock across the variants cleared out within hours.

Resale prices settled in fast. Current and recently sold eBay listings show these CDs moving in the $45 to $60 range, or roughly two and a half times Swift’s retail price.

After eBay’s 13.6 percent fee, a $50 sale nets about $43, leaving close to $23 in profit per copy once the $19.89 retail cost is factored in. Someone who grabbed all four copies allowed under the store’s limit and resold them at that price is looking at close to $93 in profit before shipping.

This was not the only flip we covered today. The same morning, Trump’s new $1 coins went live with a rare July 4th privy mark variant already pulling presale offers north of $500, and Wizards of the Coast launched its MSCHF designed Secret Lair boosters for Magic: The Gathering are flipping for four times what they retailed for.

Three solid opportunities landing in roughly the same six hour window is unusual, even for a market that’s used to a busy calendar. Resellers paying attention this morning had a real shot at stacking profit across coins, trading cards, and music memorabilia before lunch.
