How To Make Money Selling Sports Cards ($100 or Less)

As a business owner myself (not sports cards) who has been selling on eBay and Amazon full time since 2015….the biggest hurdle in the beginning is getting enough inventory and getting it listed. You’re just not going to sell a whole lot of anything until you’ve got tons of stuff available for people to buy. I’ve been looking into getting into sports cards selling lately and what I’m seeing is that most sellers doing really well (30-50 sales per day or more) have well over 50,000 listings.

The world needs more people like you… the beginning disclaimer make you wanna actually listen and learn.

Bin shop and always get 10 or more. Leaves you room to negotiate and do it honestly. Bought 10, had 35 of value, asked for 30 and they said yes. 5 bucks is big when margins are thin. That's 14 percent.

Very good overview. For me, I think another good piece of advice for someone starting out is to be very focused. Don't try to buy all sports - because you'll make mistakes. Like for myself, I only do baseball so I'm familiar with who is hot and what I can sell things for. I dabbled in NFL a bit and lost money because I wasn't as familiar with it.

Finding the image of a card for a graphic that matches the broll you have is next level editing. Subscribed.

This was very good bro! I bought a 1000 cards from an auction like 2 years ago threw them into my garage and forgot about them. I ran into one of your videos and whipped them out! Most of them are foreign to me as I don’t watch sports but the few I was able to recognize are 2 Jeter rookies and a ton of holo and cards from 94. I love arbitrage of other items and this has sparked a light in me to scavenge! Lol incase anyone wonders I paid $70 as the winning bidder. Thank you for the info my dude, my type of people the ones that share info and aren’t selfish. I’ll Be supporting your content for as long as you make it brother.

Good, practical advice. It's always best, to start micro, and then build up later on a more macro level whenever you feel comfortable, and have more of a safe and secure blanket to spend on mid level and/or higher end cards.

Thanks for the update. I watched the last one you did that was mentioned early in the video. It helped a lot. Keep it coming!

A thorough and well explained 10 minutes. I appreciate your insights. Thanks for making this!

Your videos are great! I'm watching them over and over again, because I want to get started on ebay with a small card shop, so really appreciate the advice! Keep rockin'!

I am in China. My english is not good.I watch your video by translator.I learn a lot.I have been buying and selling cards from China to Japan for about 7 months now.I made some money before, but now I make less and less. It is becoming increasingly difficult to choose cards, and many cards cannot be sold at high prices.Now that I have learned a lot from your videos, I decided to give your ideas a try. Thank you for sharing.

N ice video. Thanks for telling people exactly how it is. I collected for years in the early 2000's and I learned all this by example. It didn't take me long before I became a good trader. Online trading clubs was also a good way to find good deals as well as meat good people that would ll help you find cards you collect or want to invest in. 🎉

What site are you using at the 1:20 mark to research card prices?

Very helpful and good advice. Been out of the game for a while and getting back in. Most my cards are from the 90s

I love that video when u visited ALT. They had like 30 mill pricetags on those 6 cards. Hilarious stuff

so im not really looking for investment. but i do have cards from 1930s. they have been in my book for years. im looking into where do i need to go to look at price. just a randoms search or specific sights

It’s such a process when checking prices and then grading isn’t quick either unless you’re paying premium prices. Then on top of it all selling on EBay has a selling limit until you start to generate positive feedback.

Thank you for this very informative video. I was wondering when you first started out. Did you have a set amount of cards you would list a day?

Great video! Buying boxes is brutal anymore. $250 for Bowman 2023 Hobby Box to get a few numbered no names and a no name auto.

Im trying to start selling some old baseball cards i found and was wondering how you determine how much you want to sell them for. I dont have the money to send them on for grading so im not sure how to figure that out.
