Thanks for the great info. Great leads and insights.

I won't give you all of my honey holes but I also use whatnot for some inventory. Good for singles, slabs, and some smaller lots.

Thank you for this video Mike! I am looking forward to the next one! Are you able to share the spreadsheet calc that you use?

Hey. Good info. I have bought from Ebay, Amazon and couple times from Goodwill.

[ZiggyNo]

Good insights and tips.
All my inventory is from PYT breaks and personal boxes

This was a great video. For me I have passed down box's from family members plus auctions. I just came into 3 5000 count boxes of cards and 8 other boxes different sizes full of cards. Most of them from the junk era but found HOF in them. Rows of upper deck cards almost full set and sorted by number. Trust me once you start collecting it gets out of hand so my plan hopefully is to sell cards for the first time on ebay. We will see how that goes.

Good video. My best two card buys in 2023 were at antique toy shows of all places. One guy had a few baggies worth of SI for Kids cards for $5 each at his table and i got those quick. At a different antique toy show a found a bankers box of loose football cards labelled 50 cents each and the dealer came up to me when he saw me looking and said i could take the whole thing for $20 so I did. Mostly commons in there but made my $20 back long ago.

Most of my inventory is from a consignment shop near me. The owner puts together bulk boxes of a couple thousand cards and gives them to me for half price at roughly $10 bucks a box. I usually pull 1 card out of the box that pays for the box alone if not by 2-3x. So the rest of the box is pure profit with tons of rookies, stars and inserts i can sell for $2-10 bucks. All the stuff I don't want i put in flat rate boxes and auction those off. Overall it has changed everything for me. I've pulled a minimal profits in sports cards, until I found this consignment shop.

Do you have any information or direction you can send me to figure out how to do the accounting of these zillions of cards that I own and are selling?

[thomasmurphy]

The best way to buy cards is at a store that sells singles then if you have few hundred dollars to buy you can pick out the cards you want if you buy a box you may only get a few good cards maybe not ones you like

[joeborromeo]

EBay and Mercari are my go to places. What is your desired per card price when buying a collection?

[pokekatrader]

Hey guys, I'm a new subscriber. Would you say the same goes with "Junk Wax" unopened boxes?

[ShimmyStix]

How do you keep your cards sorted and organized to easily sort when selling?

[DavidGutierrez-kjtm]

Opinion for whatnot? I'm new to selling cards. I have my cards from PC to sell. I don't see much profit on ebay.

[David-fvzg]

I just bought a large collection off facebook, ~250, 000 cards for $1000. Came with label printer and high end scanner. Tons of great cards, graded and ungraded, Im 1/3 of the way through it and have made my money back 2 fold so far. I don't think this will ever happen again. Only problem, the guy was a big smoker, and the cards take a while to air out. I have bought a few great deals on Facebook too, but you really have to filter through this.

[gsquared.collectibles]

While I understand your spreadsheet, doing it on a card-by-card basis is very time consuming if you are volume seller. You could do it on a "Per collection" basis, but really it is much simpler tracking it monthly.

[WowColorFight]

COMC ports isn't a bad way to grab a huge lot of cards. I've purchased 3 and profited on all 3. I'm very picky on what I buy, though.

[roselynenfinger]

I have a box of 80 and 90 cards I want to sell.

[ig_BLJHsports]

Done Facebook, goodwill, eBay lots and other auctions houses. It is mainly looking for deals and getting your price per card as low as possible. I have bought lots/collections that one card in it paid for the whole thing and others that were just junk/base cards that had all the good ones pulled out.
