Should I become a "Flipper"?

buyingstuffformikelee · Dec 25, 2006

Man, I tell you what, there are just steals gloare happening on e-bay right now.

I feel like I should sell my stocks and just start picking up random things that people collect.

$20 for a Exquisite Gold Parrallel?

Auto's passing for $0.99 with no vids or snipes????

Man, what to do, what to do?

Definately...buy up big and sell for a profit later...it's not your fault your smarter than most other people!!
You can also go a long way to growing your own collection with the extra funds!!

That's a very good point indeed

Sell for growing the personal collection.

:-D Ha ha ha ha ha

But in all seriouness, if anyone has some spare $$$$ I would suggest looking at what's up.

I have seen so many potential steals pass up it's unbeleivable.

Man, I just saw an Amare Exquisite Number peices sell for under $100!!!

That's right! Crazy stuff.

I mean, his auto patch goes for $120 plus alone!

I occasionally do stuff like tha (buy just to sell) but for the amount I make the turn around time is just to slow - I'll stick to my shares and betting

Man, I have never done it before, ever.

I just find that it's hard enough to get money for myself, little to to spar enough to buy enough cards for sale, and then live in the hope someone will buy the cards.

But darn it, I so should have bidded on that Amare. Bugger.

I can't keep up, it's like 10 items end every minute, and it's just so many goodies, I can only pick up the ones as presents or future trade baits etc.

The trick to it is - Only buy cards you are 100% on making money on !

As i said I have done it before (On AFL cards) and it turned out a nice profit.....slow turn around though !

Man, I'm kicking myself over that Amare. It selles for like $250!!!! Bugger.

as someone who has been monitoring prices of amare cards for about the last year and a bit, that number pieces would never sell for $250, would sell for $100-150.

Really? O.k, now I don't fell as bad

Man, my Beckett must be so outdated, as it's got $150-$275

JZA · Dec 26, 2006

and that $100 is current prices, now that amare is hot again, 3 months ago it would have gone for $60-70.

Gee whiz, I though those number peices cards sold for a heap more than that?

I don't keep an avid eye on all of them obviously, but I have seen a few pass by, and they all seem to go for at least $200?

I saw like a Bird go for $300 odd, Magic as well, I saw a Igggy on like $180 odd. Under $100 seemed like a steal?

Do you own one bud?

JZA · Dec 26, 2006

nah, im waiting for a nice one, all the ones ive seen have those crappy 1 clr patches.

Richo · Dec 26, 2006

Not much good talking about them if you can't buy them dude, it will just drive you nuts if you see them go for a big price later.......stop looking

buyingstuffformikelee · Dec 26, 2006

JZA - :-D Ha ha ha ha Crappy 1 colour?

Richo - :-D Ha ha ha ha I still have a tiny bit of $$$$ left. I did manage to pick up a few things for the PC at some nice prices too BUt I'll be happy when it actually arrives, too many times have I won stauff lately, and because of the "nice" price, seems to get lost in the mail :-(
