    Another tip - stop lowballing sellers. If they already have the lowest price, just buy it.
    As a seller, I've had plenty of people lowball me. I always look to see what else is available before accepting offers and many times I've been priced too low. What do I do? I decline the offer and raise the price.

      For sure. I do the same thing as well. It’s so difficult to stay on top of every card as prices are constantly changing

      Lol, I had a card listed at 60 bucks and man said I’ll pay 40, I replied with 50 is my bottom dollar and few hours later I got a how bout 45. I replied back to him saying it’s 55 dollars now and low and behold he hits back I’ll do 50.

    Great tips, recently I've gotten back into flipping on comc. I don't recall you mentioned in the vid, if you sort the listings by highest percentage off, you could find a lot of deals.

    • @redcapesports
      @redcapesports  3 роки тому +3

      While that is true, more often than not I find the highest % off are cards that were already overpriced. Cards that should be $100 were originally priced at say $250 and even with a 25% discount, you're not saving

    How do you value "uncirculated - stock image" vs a picture of a raw card? Can we assume the uncirculated card sent directly to COMC is a better chance for good card conditions/better buy?

    • @redcapesports
      @redcapesports  3 роки тому

      Great question. I would consider all cards that aren’t otherwise noted to be psa 8 and MAYBE a 9. They do a pretty job at noting if it’s NM, Mint+, etc. So I would personally just assume it’s a raw, which typically is a 8 or9

      @@redcapesports Thanks! One other thing - on COMC if they have [Mint or Better] or something like that, Is it actually better than a Raw (Psa8/9) Is this COMC validating it is a higher quality or just the seller's opinion of their own card?

    Could you make a video to help others understand the notations? How many people think EX-NM is better than Raw? Its not. Raw is the only place you could buy and get a PSA 10 from sending it in. All the other notations of non-graded cards are telling you what is physically wrong. It even says on the site that cards that have no big issues are listed as raw.. They don't grade centering because you can see the scan. Anyway, it may help some rookies. EX is a PSA 6.

    In my experience sometimes if you find a good deal, just buy and don’t send an offer. Sometimes the buyer hasn’t been great at keeping up with prices and when they see the offer they will decline and list it higher. How much of that $1500 is profit? Keep up the good work with the vids boys!

    • @Joe-rg9yz
      @Joe-rg9yz 3 роки тому +1

      This is exactly what I do. Or someone else buys it before I see an off. If it is a great deal, take it. Same thing as the dont over think the $95 offer. Lose $20 in profit trying to save $5. Nothing lets you know what is going up like offers, haha.

      @@Joe-rg9yz You obviously don't sell much there. If you withdrawal too much you will get sent tax forms from PayPal. Best way to avoid this is to spend your profit on cards and have the cards shipped to you and sell those or reinvest your profit into more COMC cards to sell on site. Once you start withdrawing and reach their threshold you get tax forms.
