I recently sold about 5,000 junk wax era baseball cards. But full disclosure on the fact that they had already been picked through. I wouldn't do that to someone without letting them know. He bought them as a starter for his grandkids. $30, hardly a fortune.
Hey Andrew, buying in bulk is the way to go. I bought a couple collections back to back and filled up 3 storage units in the process. I have the most fun going through boxes of stuff from them and finding out how they organize stuff in boxes. Many times I have been digging through a box that seemingly was all commons and then coming across a HOF rookie card that is hundreds of dollars. Thanks so much for sharing with us.
Great video - I like how you explained your thinking and process of selling the bulk. Could you talk a little more about how you find/price/purchase bulk lots? Thanks!
Where can I sell my collection it's from the mid 50 s to modern mostly mid 80 s baseball to now rookies of hall of famers to rookiesof today card brands go from Topps Topps gold label fleer metal skybox Bowman chrome Topps chrome fleer ultra optic donruss proset score you name it yes there's a ton of commons but there's a ton of great players to I tried to penny sleeve every single card just about even the commons numbered cards variations and inserts mostly all in good shape I have probably around ten thousand give or take
@@timothyrottinghaus3443 Facebook marketplace, Craigslist, eBay are some of the typical online platforms. A sports card store will usually give you pennies on the dollar. And I love vintage and can tell you 50-70's generally sells quickly.
How often do you go look at a collection just to find out that it’s all base commons from the late 80’s-early 90’s junk wax era with most good cards (stars, HOF’s, good rookies) having already been picked out of them?
Jeez a good reminder of how much was produced from 1988-1992. This has to be mostly that. Commenting before watching. It’s never this much 50s, 60s and 70s stuff. Never happens.
I've always thought there is nothing worse than the pieces of crap that pick out all the superstars and rookies from a giant collection and then sell it off without telling the buyer that they have. But now I see there are people that buy and then pick through again and resell it to some other poor bastard through ebay. Definitely worse.
This was an awesome video! I would think if I were to sell monster boxes on ebay, the shipping would be outrageous, though. Wouldn't it be better to break things down into lots by brand/year or teams? Thanks!
I have definitely sold at a few cards shows locally. However, I found them to be a lot of work for the amount of return that I got from the show. Having so many cards makes it difficult to sort out all the valuable cards to correct price and sell at a show. I could set out unsorted cards for $0.25/Card but I might overlook an extremely valuable card that is worth much more than $0.25. I've had the most enjoyment and profit going to card shows and buying to resell on eBay. Much easier!
Would be cool to do a breakdown on how to sell these! I found a few ways to do it but im always looking to others options

Yeah man I know the feeling! It's a rush to go through some old dusty boxes and strike gold!
Would love a video showing how you search and find these huge lots. I've been watching everywhere and haven't come across any.

Subbed!
Thanks for the kind words. Yes, I'll elaborate further in a future video.

I’m a 90s basketball collector looking to get into buying bulk…can you help me out?
I guess no one is selling bulk in my area. I look on facebook almost every day and can't find the bulk. I'll keep looking.
Check flea markets and flea malls. Also, card shows are a good place to find folks who have bulk, make connections

Haha yeah it's mainly 90s Junk Wax, but there are definitely some Gems to be found!
@@ApexCardsLLC WHO has the monster boxes of 86 and 87 fleer basketball? Why do we never see videos of those finds? lol
Great question man, I have yet to find a SINGLE 86 Fleer Basketball card in these collections.
@@ahmanfan wouldn't that be something?!?!

Most collections I find on FB seem way overpriced. I got one for $500 about as much as what's in your suv.
I've always wondered to how people find all these haha
They're out there, just keep an eye out!

The best way to do it is to ship them in USPS flat rate large/medium boxes depending on the amount of cards you're selling.
@@ApexCardsLLC Yeah, I can agree with that. Thanks so much for the tip, as you gave me some more ideas to try. Thanks again! 🙂
Do you sell your sports cards on card show. You can sell it 25 cents-1 dollars each. You have a lifetime supply sell sports cards at card shows

Hey, what kind of search do you use to find these collections of fb marketplace
Need any help doing inventory and putting the cards in penny sleeves and top loaders?
It may take a lifetime to penny sleeve all these brother, a lot of this will be sold in bulk.
Any soccer cards?
Some, but very few. I see them from time to time in boxes but I don't have thousands like I do with the other sports.
Make cheap mystery boxes
Good idea!
Thanks for not telling us how you find these
150$???? For all of that?
If you know how to sell bulk, then why do you still have so much bulk?
It's hard to sell something if you don't have it to sell.
You seem like a card hoarder you have so many cases I think you may need help. Don’t let them ruin your life. Peace ✌️
Haha thanks man, I can always sell them to bulk buyer when the time comes.
