    I am a big fan of this series and a little piece of feedback I would give is you could add part 1 part 2 part 3 etc. to all the post so people can know how far you are into the series.
    👍👍👍

    I really enjoy your series that your doing. As i am just starting out as well. Makeing me rethink things like my margin of profit. I would like to make a big profit but the small ones add up. So I gota be more willing to take a smaller profit on cards rather be looking at everything and not buy anything due ill only maybe 10 or 20 bucks after fees on ebay because i wana make a bigger profit.. I just need to do it and a profit is a profit. Just think im over thinking certain things.

      Small wins lead to big wins! I focus on % growth a lot more than dollars. If someone turns $1 into $1000 that's significantly more expensive than turning $5000 into $6000 in my mind

      I'm the worst for overthinking. I've collected for years off and on but now I want to try and make profits. I'm wanting to buy baseball but don't have alot of money in my budget so I'm overthinking who, graded, not graded, raw to grade, it's frustrating.

    Great video. I'm a little older and getting back into collecting so it is a bit overwhelming with all of the variations of cards available. Right now I am just collecting for my pc so I can get more familiar with the new stuff. Thanks for the series as well as the other ones on the channel!

    Great finds! I need to visit your card shows. Out of the 3 I’ve been to here in Indiana, every person is selling everything at or above eBay prices and don’t really negotiate at all. The $1 boxes are trash, mostly base and maybe a $2-$5 card if you’re lucky.

    Question on selling on ebay. Tried to list my 1st sale in years, a buy it now in a graded card at $25 and got error about exceeding $10 limit for the month. So i can only list 1 card for $10 or less in a month until i establish again? Any thoughts?
