I Spent $350 All on LOW END SPORTS CARDS!
I recently went to a local card show to buy inventory for my eBay Store. When I source for cards, I usually buy enough to meet my listing goals for the week (at the time of this video, I am currently listing 30 cards a day). The main reason why I do this is so that I do not overspend or over buy. This allows me to continue to save money and at the same time grow my store. I usually only spend what I need and that helps me expand my business.
Today, I spent $350 all on low end sports cards and came away with 478 cards. Now, how much I buy and spend also depends on what the next few weeks look like for me and my family as I do not always have the time to go to shows every week.
In the low end card selling space, it's all about volume: volume selling and bulk buying. However, I try my best not to overspend and only use what I need. The beauty of low end sports cards is that they are always there!

As a low end sports card seller, one of the most important aspects is selling in volume. Since the profit margins are so small, it's important to sell more - it all adds up at the end.

    I sell similar cards. But if I buy them for a dollar and sell for two, I lose money. 0.69 shipping, 0.60 eBay fee on $2, 0.12 envelope, label, and used top loader. $1.40 is my minimum for a single card sale that was “free” to me. Really multi card orders are where money can be made. If you sell individual cards you’ve got to get them for five cents or less to make anything. Cards I paid a dollar for would have to be sold for $2.50 to make twenty cents if shipped by itself.

    I'm like a month in, only have about a dozen listings, and have only had 1 sale (a Connor Bedard low end). I find figuring out shipping to be the biggest time-killer for setting up a listing - I'm always unsure which one to use as I don't know where a buyer will be, so how do you know what to charge for a super cheap card (I'm in Canada)

    I know this is old....but psa 10s aren't going to remain the standard. The 10s are no longer the top of the line. With the pristine rating, it basically makes the 10s what a 9 used to be. Plus psa is tossing out 10s like they are leaves on a tree.

    For me i love to collect cards. I have 10-13 types of tcg i been collecting. Im not here to make money. If i see i high end card i check how much it cost . Lets said i have a card that cost 100$ . First i examine my card if it looks perfect i sell it for 95$ but if i see its has dents,scratches etc then instead of selling 95$ i sell it for 40$ or depending how messy it is. But my question is how do i sell 1 cent to 50 cents cards? Without losing money?

    I've bought bulk sports cards off ebay probably around 10k to just try and start maybe a hobby or start selling on ebay and literally none of them had any value. Maybe a handful were worth a couple dollars. It turned out I was basically just buying the junk someone else wanted to get rid of. I am sure they were all gone through rigorously before hand and people just decided to pawn off these "commons" or no name players and throw in a couple dollar cards. Besides it taking the time it appears you are going to need some capital to begin with. Now I just have a couple large boxes that is basically a fire hazard.

  • @mathman80
    @mathman80 5 місяців тому

    I add the eBay transaction fee to the cost because I'm pretty paranoid about the 1 card order which is still the clear majority of my orders. In the bulk order case though, I grind lots manual refunds for shipping and quantity discounts because I don't pay for a store. eBay seems to favour free shippers. You can see it in their help section and UI.

    @brianc9036 6 місяців тому

    Good video but I use card savers instead of top loaders. Pre-ESE I would use a Butterfly stamp with a Top Loader but my post says that top loaders make them non-machinable. Also suggest not centering single cards, put them slightly off to ones side or the other, Credit Cards companies have been doing that for years.

  • @brianc9036
    @brianc9036 6 місяців тому

    I will never understand the thermal printing obsession. Especially for ESE, when I print directly onto the #10 PWE I have zero problems with scans and updates. Putting the peel and stick labels on there is when the tracking gets spotty and more likely to draw attention for non-machinable.
