People all have dumb strategies, like loading up on some rookie, hoping he plays. Nope best way to make money. Buy cards for less than they are worth now, then sell them quickly for what they are worth. Do this quickly before the price drops.
Indeed, especially for the modern/less proven player. I'd be selling them as fast as possible.
I agree I buy Ar and Cj prizm get graded flip them but gotta have some fun hold a few psa 10 on AR see if he’s the next Lamar lol people are too serious trying to make money on cards
The best way to make money on cards is to have a bunch of cards you collected a really long time ago and then sell them for the preposterously inflated prices we see today. It’s an easy win.
People regularly pay like 2,3,5 bux for 20 cent cards from the nineties I notice
I stumbled upon your page while sorting out a bunch of cards to get ready for listing. I primarily list entire runs of cards by the “u choose” method so that not only am I listing the good cards for player collectors but also the base cards for set builders and of course the more they buy the more they save. Has been successful for me especially the pandemic. Like you my wife and I have really good jobs so this is a way for me to build my collection for little cost. Most of my sets I built for Pennies on the dollar
I've been buying 10 to 30 dollar cards at bin and sending them to auction and double my money. It's wild. All raw.
Prove it.
Congrats on the "new" Ebay hustle! My favorite part is when you were talking about doing business while having other stuff on in the background, so many people just waste their time online & watching TV twirling thumbs! It's nice to be a little productive at least, and this is a great way to interact with the hobby you already enjoy, keep up with hobby trends and meet new people. That's the main reason why I'm here at least, have a great week and good luck!
I was hyped to see that fanimation Larry bird and Michael Jordan , those inserts were a small chase when I was a kid, love it!
another awesome video. even better than the reselling tickets video. ive been selling on ebay for only a few years now, and i cannot stress buying penny sleeves, toploaders, team/slab bags, and envelopes in BULK! I need to look more into setting shipping and pricing rules for my store. ebay makes it difficult on purpose i think.
I agree, I had some good wholesale accounts for supplies but I haven't been buying much the last year. I'll probably get an order in once I know about how many cards I'm selling per day/month. I will say for some items - Amazon is really close to the wholesale price so it can serve as a good place to buy too.
Question. When shipping a single card out using usps standard envelope. Can I drop it in any outgoing mail? Mailbox? Neighborhood outgoing mail box? Thanks.
Good info. Thank you. I just started selling some of my inventory this week and have 10 sales so far. I’m looking to source more inventory that will drive more traffic. Buying popular players from the 90s-2000s is a good idea. I was in college during that time and don’t have any in my inventory.
Awesome video. You gave me the motivation to get back on the selling grind. Thankyou!
Good video bro about a year and a half ago I learned a new way of looking at value box stuff . Depending on how much you buy you could possibly be getting $15 cards for $1.30 per it’s great I love it and love buying value boxes
It sounds simple but try to find something for nothing (well…..cheap) that you can sell for something. But I find it takes time to network to know where to look. By dealing with people, you get to know people in the hobby and see where there’s a good fit. Maybe you meet a guy who buys big football lots because he collects certain guys, and he is willing to sell you a good chunk of that lot for cheap. You have some inventory, and you see how much you have to sell to make money off of it. Keep track of money coming in and going out.
I think weekend sales are good because people are on eBay for fun after having a few drinks and buy more freely. I wake up to middle of the night sales most Saturday and Sunday mornings.
Let's Go! Thanks for the information and strategy thoughts. I play in the shallow end of the hobby pool and have my player PC and try to sell my graded cards for a little extra money and to feed my buying on a zero sum basis. Thanks for the discussion! See you Thursday!
Love it! See you THURS!
I love that you mention the "per hourly" argument at 25:00 It's a love/hate with the hustle culture out there, but if I'm not working on the side hobby my time is literally worth $0 anyway. I've always told my son, even on the smallest sale, it's $1 I didn't have yesterday.
Nice and informative video, I am also selling cards on the side. Do you plan to make a video on how you approach this from "side business" perspective, taxes, business license ect.?
I really enjoy and appreciate you guys content and learn everytime! Thank you!
Thanks for watching!
Great video. You mentioned something about allocation. Not sure exactly what that is.. but does that explain how people like PackMan are opening 6-7 figures worth of card boxes a year and not going broke? In theory opening boxes is a loosing game long term, but I was wondering if it's simply being made up for by RUclips earnings or if something else is going on. (Maybe allocation = Panini/Topps is sending him free boxes to hype them up?).
When you print out the labels for shipping do you use bubble mailers or regular envelopes? And how does that work does the money deduct from the cost of your overall net sales or do you pay at the post office for each order? Sounds cheap! Would appreciate your feedback as I didn’t hear you clarify all of your shipping process in your video. God bless you and the family!
Overall...This is a very very good video. I have been doing basically the same thing for 26+ years. Buying sports cards and making a small profit which then I buy the things I want in the sports memorabilia hobby. Good video well done.
What do you use to scan each card pic in? Do you just use your cellphone? I need something better than a cellphone to quickly scan photos.
nvm typed this before watching the entire video - lol
Ive been doing this for about 3 months. I put everything up for auction and theres weeks where i send out 6-10 envelopes. The more you have listed the better and list everything
99% of my items are buy now/offer. My problem is buyers like to offer 50% of my asking price, which I politely decline. Depending on the item if they offer 75%-80% then I’ll make a counteroffer or accept.
Great content! Thank you so much.
Nice video bro! Different than what im used to seeing from you guys. I like your suggestions!
Good luck in your endeavors. All good and valid information. Thanks
Thanks for watching!
A little bit of bragging but we got ya lol This is one of the best beginning tutorial for selling your $1 cards 🔥
I have at least 10,000 cards and am trying to figure out best way for me to do this full time thanks! Love the video man!
Pull every card that is worth at least a buck, and then just send em to COMC. If you put 200-250 into your account that should cover your initial costs. It costs 50 cents a card to upload, but they upload them a few cards at a time. So what you make on selling one card goes into uploading the next few. I've been doing this the past few years and I love it. The downfall is this is not the fastest way to sell them, but I think it's the best way to capitalize on what you have.
The fastest way would be to get a good overall value of your cards and then list em at 80% of what you think they are worth. If you can sell em to a true collector they'll be happy with that. If you sell them to a dealer, expect that he will come back at a price closer to 60-70% of what their value is. Good luck!
Excellent video and very informative.
Love these, please make more money making videos
How could someone get in touch with you guys to report BS happening in the hobby / YT community?
Great video!!’ This is what the newbies should be watching instead of reading sports card investing by dumbasses. Will be sharing this out. Great, great work!!!!
Thank you!!!!!!
It seems sensible. So many people since the boom think they'll be millionaires overnight and don't realize how much of a grind it can be.
Absolutely is a grind. I enjoy putting on a ball game or RUclips video and going through the cards, but it's certainly not big money overnight.
Thank you im taking it all in. See you tomorrow night fellas
How do you know what to charge for the cards you post? Secondly being in Canada, it can cost upwards of $4.00
When I'm building the listing from a 'sell similar' item I search lowest Buy-It-Now price and get a sense what the lowest 3 or 4 cards are listed for. With Jordan, you can price a bit higher if the cards are mint. For cards with noticeable flaws, I try to price at the lowest price.
I notice hockey sells the best from Canada, I pay that shipping for cards
@@Christine16___ Do you sell base cards for hockey as well? And do you sell only in Canada? How much do you pay for shipping @Christine16
Good job telling everyone your strategy
Uline is great for bubble mailers
Everyone says end your auctions on Sunday but that's dumb. I end mine on fri and sometimes Thursday....when people get paid.
I agree. Maybe I'm old, but on Sunday I'm winding down pretty early. So far, Thurs/Friday have been huge for me on the Buy-it-Now.
I use this strategy buy the cheapest mj Brady mahomes cards on eBay buy lots too then I deal at shows I get double for them works great 2023 prizm great too for mahomes burrow and Anthony Edwards. I buy raw grade sell slabs on eBay I think it’s a waste of time holding slabs for show
Imagine working all week saving your money just to buy pictures of men😂

you can make whatever you want.... Just have to work and put in the time. My Season Is Really Year Round Now. I might slow down in January and February But I'm Doing other things like taking down Christmas Lights and Leaves and Gutters and clean ups And Bushes or Mulch or landscaping... in spring summer and fall it's Mow mow mow and go go go... So Fuck an hour
HOW MUCH YOU WANT TO MAKE. ??
🧐 buying cards for cheap and sell them for more 🧐 I mean 🧐 🤔 i wonder how. Idk I’m lost
I would start with a single player - preferably a GOAT type player, so Jordan, Kobe, Messi, Brady, Montana, Mantle, etc. Learn the market of just that player and then you can branch out from there. Same could apply to certain sets or rookie classes.
Be careful with New England Sports Cards aka 4 corners. Hes been doing it for years, dont expect any 10s from him.
118👍
