    Great video, great analysis. Amazing how little money low numbered, high grade cards of soccer greats still go for vis a vis similar cards in other sports.

      Totally agree. It’s jarring every time I look to buy other sports!

    Thanks for this informative video. It's really interesting to see your sales. It seems like the winning formula is iconic players / well-known sets / ideally serial-numbered variations. If you stick to that combo (even if it's a slower process), it seems like your bankroll will grow really nicely. Your findings also seem to indicate that incorporating prospecting (e.g., Gakpo) / less iconic players (e.g., Reyna) into your bankroll challenge ends up causing problems. Good luck going forward. Your content is always enlightening!

      Yes, I've found a tradeoff between speed and profits. I've grown the bankroll nicely, but it's taken almost two years so far. I still believe prospecting can work, but you have to time it correctly. For example, you need to buy early and sell ASAP. Can sit on cards because the prices will only trickle down as more come to the market. My mistake has been sitting on those cards too long and then needing PSA 10s to eek out any sort of positive ROI. Thanks for watching!

      @@SoccerCardCorner I agree that, with prospects, buying early / selling quickly would be the only way to go. Good luck!

    New subscriber here! Love the transparency and that you focus on soccer. Are your sales prices before or after expenses/shipping?

    Great video and analysis. Gakpo was so hot for world cup. He went to Liverpool and just full off price wise. Do you think the cards coming from DC Sports are more likely to have some condition issues?

    • @SoccerCardCorner

      Thank you! Agree on Gakpo. It's tough to consistently stand out on a club like Liverpool, especially when he wasn't even starting every match.
      For any consignment sellers (e.g. DCSports, COMC, etc.), I think it depends. I would say that most new release cards (e.g. last few years) or notable stars or prospects that show up raw likely have issues. That being said, I've purchased some cards from DC and COMC raw that got PSA 10s, granted they were lesser known players from a well-known set (e.g. 2017 Topps Chrome).

    Thoughts on sending direct to auction through PSA’s eBay account to save time?

      I think it makes a ton of sense. I haven't tried it yet because I haven't graded any cards since it went into effect. I also enjoy doing live PSA reveals for the channel, but I think it makes a lot of sense if you're trying to sell graded cards as fast as possible.
