As someone that sells older stuff on eBay to get it out of the house…PREACH about those fees!! They DESTROY any profit margin, and honestly if more people realized how little they’ll make by “flipping figures”, they can leave the pegs for kids and actual collectors because we are only doing it to ourselves when we let these outsiders “win” and pay those aftermarket prices
The dumb thing about most flips is that they troll pretty much all parties. The margins for most flips relative to the time to execute a flip is so narrow and the window brief enough that the flipper is sort just wasting their time. They could be doing almost anything else (opportunity cost) and making more money or having more fun. But the flipper life also drains stock from retailers which puts a tax on items that collectors just honestly want to buy to enjoy. I'm not even sure if retailers benefit because flippers disrupt normal demand metrics so it is harder for companies to get an accurate sense of how many units to produce. That said, Flipper Frank rules
I'd think if anything, flippers would cause more pieces to be produced if retailers are seeing that certain items fly off shelves. With how poor distribution seems to be, I don't think they have much impact in that sense. They make it a pain to find anything though! If companies could keep up with demand, artificial or otherwise, things should be easier to find I'd think.
I have been waiting 30 years for Sega to make an official Sonic figure of Fang and the fact that this guy is telling people to flip that $5 toy for over $100 (and that I still haven't found one in Target) is infuriating o_O
The scalping on Sonic figures is ridiculous! My son collects them (he’s 10) and he’s missing so many figures because scalpers buy them up before we even know they are out! Selling $10 figures for $50-60 on eBay and Amazon, it’s pathetic. I think all scalpers are scum, but there’s a special place in hell for a-holes that are grabbing up toys that kids play with!
1:39 So this guy knows a hack to where you can sell shit on eBay with zero fees?! Wow! And this guy lives somewhere where there's no sales tax! Wow! This dude's a genius! Wow!
This was the most perfect example of motivated passive aggressiveness I've ever seen. No whining complaining bs like we see on other channels, this is how it's done...awesome video...I ain't mad at the young fella, he's doing his thing.
@@ioncewasmikey they can take as high as 15.5% but on average it's 14.9. I've been selling on there for like 20 years and I've spoken to them numerous times. They told me on average that it is 14.9%
@@ioncewasmikey also basically all I sell is action figures, posters and video game stuff. They charge the exact same percentage on all of those items. That percentage is 14.9
The fact his alter ego is called Flipper Frank makes a person think that 'mAd HatTeR' actually does partake in that dirty bs. I mean, he never has any hunting footage. Because that would be a boring video. Scouring every target in california, looking only for M. Bison or Dhalsim or whichever fresh, new item dropped.
He does hunts occasionally but usually just reviews & fun parody stuff like this. Dude orders most of his NECA from Ali, think he does that after selling all the ones he finds at Target? Lol

This dude's a genius! Wow!
It's such a nice treat when someone buys something from me from a state with no sales tax haha. Ebay sucks!

We got this, and the Leatherhead song, in the span of 2 days. We eating guuuuuud
Hatter! Rocksteady & Bebop Joy Toy just dropped for preorder and they are PERFECT! Available at BBTS right now.

I can't wait to hear what you think about the Joy Toy Beebop & Rocksteady images that were just released.
We’ve missed you, Frank. Lots of delicious toys to flip since comic con I’m sure 👍
These young punks! They don't know what it's like in the flipping game! "You gonna DIE!"
Love me some Flipper Frank
Love it.
Flipper frank the OG 😅
This is the reality I choose to live in. 😂 The Flipperverse!
Please make a figure of this guy!!
Just don't forget to pay his $113.60 licensing fee, which will be a cool 700 bucks for him!
Half a milkshake! 😂😂😂
Omg 😂😂😂😂 this was fantastic … a lost son 🎉
Loaded Nachos from Taco Bell 😂😂😂
The new character can be called Flip-Lad lol
Flipper Frank is a triple OG
lol good stuff
I need to start flippin for that salsa verde money.
There’s so much to unpack in this video lol
You could probably deduct $5.68 from the cost of gas it might take to drive to a few Target’s to look for Slash.
That dude is Flipper Frank's intern Flipper Freddie. He's still learning.
Ha ha ha ha ha... Extra profits for a Taco meal or a Dollar Tree shopping spring...😁💡👍
You can make an action figure of this guy called Dic-Wad.
If I recall Scrappy Doo is the most hated character ever.
Can you do a little video showing your toy collection?? That would be cool
🌶️ Salsa 🫙 Verde 🌿
Son of Flip-or
Flip it! Flip it! Flip it!

Hatter, Nacho-retailer! Eat like the Burger King 😂 flip life YO 🫶😉✌️
Lol i have to go troll this guys comments 😂
Dude has got 191 subscribers. 😂😂

Does Flipper Frank have a son?! It's time for a DNA test!
Ebay takes 13.5% of total profits. I don't understand why anyone would want to make only $5 lmao
Just tried getting I on Flip-Or and its closed. It's 1130 pm EST and I cannot pledge money to you. Wtf?
Weird, hit me up on Instagram if you can, should still be open on my end
😂😂😂
😂
I'd rather not check him out. The 5 seconds you showed was more than enough exposure 😂
You gotta love that all his shorts have like 1 or 2 comments and usually it’s him commenting on his own short 😂🤣what a goof
Lol he has new comments now 😂
@@jamespaul6315 something tells me when this video gets more traffic the dude is going to have all kinds of comments hahaha
@@jamespaul6315😅🤣

Every masterpiece has it's cheap copy.
eBay doesn't take 13% they take 14.9%

Wow .. I fn don't say this often .. but I fn hate that guy and his channel. The real flip or schooled him on his profit margins
