I’m just gonna comment this even though no one is gonna probably read it. To be clear RIPPING WAX IS NOT A GOOD INVESTMENT. I got extremely lucky, and don’t recommend it to anyone as a real way to make money (which I’ve made clear in pretty much any video I’ve ever made on the matter)

I just watched one of your videos from two years ago where you said you didn't think this was a viable full time job, now it's your full time job! Nice

As a collector who enjoys opening cards, I tend to lose money and take the enjoyment as payoff. An occasional endorphin hit is nice too, but the overall money spent VS money earned is typically in the red. However, the targeted collector side of my has consistently made money. It also helps that I started collecting (again anyway) at the right time in 2017. I have a lot of Judge, Ohtani, and Soto that anchor the value of my collection. I've also made good money by buying raw cards that look good on the screen and then taking advantage of grading specials from PSA or SGC. Vintage has been especially good for this.

It goes beyond hobby and becomes work, but it's not bad work once you get good at it. With the hobby appearing to still be expanding, it is still worth venturing into.

Duuude! Yes, you're back. Hopefully you got some footage from the Soccer trade nights too.

I like to rip wax, but it's not the best way to make money, although it is super fun when you do!!

Was I the only one that saw the auto upside down?

Great video dude! I was the previous owner of that Jordan refractor!

[davidmillschills]

seems that was your lucky day! Congrats

[iShea]

That Select box was absurd! Well done!

[jalenLaMarca]

awesome vid showing the different methods. buying raw and grading is a slower method but has some good returns overall

[wwemark]

You’re a cool dude, one of the reasons I started my own card channel!

[MichiganMaizeNBlue]

I have never sent in cards for grading. A tip on how to/what to look when deciding what time send in would be incredible (assuming you don’t have one in your uploads lol).

You’re back! From a month hiatus let’s go!!

[kaza_family]

I really enjoy the vids brother. Love the budget videos especially

[Entrysz]

Favorite card YouTuber is back! Glad to see it. Now just want to see how long before someone copies this video too lol…

As far as I'm concerned, the only way to make money on cards is to buy low, and sell higher. Chris Sewell has a proven strategy. The hardest part is being able to appraise/price/negotiate bulk lots.

That Jordan Love card is amazing! Congrats

[iblion]

Crazy select box a Mahomes /5 and a love rpa /10 is insanely rare
