Great video and info! Can you tell from the photos if a card is Gradeable? Also after you receive the cards, what do you do with the cards that have minor scratches/print lines or corner dings making them upgradeable?
You can’t really tell surface condition from photos. If you’re concerned about a card, you can ask for close ups and ask about the surface condition. What I tend to do is just stick to buying newer cards (like 2 most recent years) and I’ve found that about 80% of them are gradeable. The others I just resell raw.
Super useful video! Only issue for me is I have successfully avoided Facebook for years...really hesitant to have an account. Wonder if I can do a private, only here for the cards, account. :)
Definitely valid. I’m not a big fan of social media either, so I try to just stick to my process of making a buying post, checking on it a couple times throughout the day, and finishing deals on messenger. As you know, a lot of the cards I grade are cheap, so I’ve just found a big advantage being able to buy under comps and save on shipping costs.
You looking to buy in bulk at about 90% of comps regularly? If so, I could send you over a bunch of photos, maybe over on instagram or something, see what you might be interested in. If you give me a list of basketball you're looking for, I've mostly got basketball
