That Cook auto is sick
nice purdy, great rip
cool
Thanks!
Just getting started: clea😮qning, grading, etc. Your video is very helpful. What is best source (site or app) online to determine current prices? Before putting time and effort into any given card, it would be good to know it it's even worth it.
Hey! congrats! I like to use Market movers, it's a paid app but it's worth it because you can generate line graphs and see long term trends of cards over time. makes it easier to buy the dip
I just subscribed due to your good content and presentation. Thank You
Thank you!! I really appreciate it!!
Damn. bought into 1 break and only got 1 card, definitely not worth getting into them!! Silly video, unsubbed!!
I’m not totally following your line of reasoning, help me understand. Are you saying this one break was too small a sample size? Or are you agreeing with me that breaks aren’t worth it?
Giannis
I dig it
I’d take the Giannis all day for sure, nice trade!
Thanks! I have a bunch of Giannis that I’m upside down in haha but feels good to get another one at a good price
Big Bryce young fan i think his prices are going to go up and the the basketball card because i cant spell his name right good trade
I agree! And you could argue Anthony Richardson is under valued right now too but I’m glad to have a card that’s more liquid
I’ve seen some crazy ones out there! I recently submitted 3 Luka Optic rookies (2 Shock and 1 Hyper pink). They all looked really good but got 8s. Gem rates were like 11%!! Similarly, I submitted SGA from the same year (1 shock, 1 hyper pink), both got 10s! Gem rates were around 33%! In that example I was dumbfounded because the Lukas looked soooo good 🤷♂️
I feel like there could be issues that are hard to see too. I had a Luka Donruss that looked perfect, but when you backlit it with a strong light, there were a couple spots that were thinning, like partially see through, couldn’t tell at all unless under powerful light, it was super weird
How can we take advice from a guy that wears a t-shirt under a t-shirt?
More shirts = more wisdom. I’ve actually got 6 on
Just started following your channel, love it! My big underrated play right now is Donovan Mitchell. Guy is a gamer and definitely a great player on a team that probably won’t win it all. I see a new team for him in the not too distant future and plenty of potential to get some killer deals on his stuff for a while
Thank you!! I really appreciate it. I'm still trying to figure out what my channel is but I just post lots of videos pertaining to sports cards. And I agree Donovan mitchell could be a really sneaky buy right now!
Good song.... Definitely fits the era of the card.
Thanks! I'm glad you caught that! Tried to pick a song that fit
I agree. I mistakingly bought into a break, not knowing the number of cards in each box or the odds. $39 out the window receiving only a rookie of Joshua Primo as a consultation. Maybe a $1.5-2 value. Lesson learned...NEVER AGAIN!!
Oh no!! Yeah you see people winning big cards but the amount of times you have to get crushed to make it happen is not worth it.
That doesn't make any sense they only pulled 1 Texan in 12 boxes? 🤔
Yeah they didn’t send any of the base there were like 3-4 base non rookies but the only rookie was that card. I watched the entire break too it was a total goose egg
I get a good chuckle (before I get upset) about breaks of retail products for the cost of one of the retail products. My guess is these are the people running around my area buying the stuff up
Yeah in hind site I fell victim to too much excitement over new product. Happy with what I got in the box I pulled myself though! I was watching the break and seeing everyone else get cool stuff and just thinking man I’d be better off just getting the box myself
@@DanielsonSportsCards or you could just buy singles! I know I know I like ripping too
@@johnmp3828 oh totally I basically only buy singles. I’ve bought only a small handful of things to rip this year, I got like 2 Prizm blasters back when those came out and I got a couple sealed Donruss complete sets. I usually never rip but occasionally can’t help myself ha
What does pop mean ? Sorry new here to the card game
Great question! Pop is just short for population. If you scan the barcode on the back of a PSA slab it will pull up a pop report that tells you how many of that card have been graded in that grade. You'll see sometimes the term 'low pop' which means it has a low population - in other words there are not that many of them. For example a 2018 Luka prizm PSA 10 has a pop count of over 20,000. But a 2018 Shai Gilgeous Alexander prizm has a pop count of 4,200.
@@DanielsonSportsCards thanks for the reply!! 👍
Great vid! Its been about 30 years since I collected cards and have dived back in and have no idea so I just buy for fun.
That's great! Buy what you love!
Nice!!!
Thank you!
Nice stuff bud 🔥 👊 🔥
Thank you so much!!
Wouldn’t the gem rate have to do with the # of that card that were sent out. I would assume much more Lawrence’s were graded then fields, hence why he would just naturally have a lower gem rate. Could be totally off the mark tho.
That’s a really good point, he was the most hyped QB in the draft for sure. So more people probably sent his cards.
That Luka was 150 wow PSA nine shock prism too that’s crazy
Yeah man! It’s down in price right now it’s like $125 right now will see how playoffs effect it
Agree with you on Wilson! He is going to be a top 5 WR this year 🔥
Totally! His cards are undervalued right now. We haven’t really seen what he can do with an actual QB, not to mention a first ballot hall of fame QB
Great video! Do more mail day stuff
Will do!
Do you have a template for the sheet? I'd love to see your system.
You know a few people have asked me. I feel like my system still needs a lot of work, but once I fine tune it to a place that I feel for confident sharing withe the world I'm gonna make a video about it
Grading Absolute cards is not wotlrth it. Stick to prizm
Yeah I’m for sure not gonna grade anymore base absolute. I did well on the CJ /499 I just sold it for $195 on eBay I picked up another raw one but definitely no more base
Great video… where in Carolina are you?… I live in Greenville SC
Thanks for watching! I’m currently outside of Raleigh but we are moving to Charolette in August
Wow great pick up
You think so? I’m realizing Montana signed a lot but he’s still top 3 all time
I would love to see if you do make back what you figured as your ROI, or if it will be lower. Comps will change on all of those cards if you're not selling until September. Hope you make something close! Have a good one.
Yes for sure! Always hard to say, some I’m going to sell now others later. A lot of it depends on the Brady’s and the CJ silver
dude what the fuck is up with this gay ass music? Dude must be gay. Next time put some 6ix9ine
Crap I pulled one of those did not know it was a case hit I think a gave it away for free 😅😂 it was not worth much like a dollar
Oh no!!!! That’s a bummer :( I’m kinda sad I sold this burrow, I got $390 cash for it at a show though which was awesome
Great editing, glad to see you got 10's for your Brady patch cards.
Hey thank you!! I appreciate it. More videos coming!
1:33 I have a question please. What did you pay for that 2023 CJ Prizm silver card? I’m assuming you bought it raw as a single. Please help me, I’m trying to figure this business out, and if it’s right for me. Thank you.
Great question! It’s tricky for sure there is a lot to learn and it’s a lot easier to lose money than make money, but you can make money. The Stroud was pulled from a pack by a friend of mine actually and I included it in there for him for this submission. I factored in $300 for the Raw cost since that’s what we could have sold it for raw.
Well edited and straight to the point!
Hey thank you!! I try to make my videos concise. To many 20 minute videos out there that could have been 7 minutes.
Hype = Demand. We should stop teaching supply and demand and just teach these kids supply and hype. Maybe they’ll understand then. Lmao
HA so true. Yeah I took an economics class in college that I really enjoyed and all those principles hold up and are so prevalent in sports cards and collectables.
good video mate , deffo continue with these ✅
thank you!! For sure more to come!
Love this. Is there a site or an app you use to track the value of your collection? Been tough for me to find one I’m happy with.
thank you for the kind words! I use market movers, Its a paid app but really helpful
@@DanielsonSportsCards one other question: when you refer to a card as liquid, what do you mean by that? Just that there are a lot of comps and it’s at a certain price point where a lot of people will be able to buy it?
I love the numbers and insight on each card/slab. Keep going!
I really appreciate it!! Thank you 🙏
Always listen to a man named 'Danielson' when inviesting 100%
You know it brotha! Wax on wax off
You should see my Hawk collection
I'd love to!! Where can I see it??
Dude, submitting to PSA can be tough...I've sent some 1998 Donruss Crusades that were immaculate and I was sure would grade Gem 💎 mint, but came back 7 or 8s....some sets are impossible to grade.
Yeah I've had a few that shocked me. I'm trying to get really disciplined in only sending really well conditioned cards, sometimes I have those rose colored glasses with my favorite cards but gotta be willing to not sub it if there are issues. I had a DK Metcalf rookie come back a 5 that I thought would gem ha
Hobby is heating up 🔥✅️...I collect as much as I sell, and its becoming harder to find many of the cards I would PC, and when they come up on auctions they have been selling for much more than I am used to seeing. Think investors are getting smart and investing more in Singles rather than packs/boxes.
totally. I haven't been doing this that long, but I think flippers are a lot more prominent in the hobby now than pure collectors
Riley Leonard has already been through the transfer portal and will be Notre Dame's starting QB this season. He has a chance to really up his stock if he stays healthy.
Yes! Exciting and I think his card market has a lot of room to grow. Gonna hold this card for a while.
your bijan was pretty off centered top/bottom, probably why it graded lower. Nice return though! those brady's are awesome.
Ah I see now. Dang! Good eye I need to make sure I check that in the future. Yeah the Brady’s are so sick!!
The Bijan silver was pretty far off top/bottom... so, that why it got an 8.
Yes, I’m looking at it now you’re totally right, I need to catch that next time!
Great tip!!
Thanks!
Great video! Adding the ROI makes it so much more interesting. Seems like there's a lot more money in grading old Brady patches than in base rookie cards. Keep up the good content!
Thank you so much!! Yeah those Brady’s really made the whole submission. Hard to find in such good condition. Those Donruss cards kinda killed me ha
This is a great breakdown! Looks like you’re getting bigger ROI every time.
Especially compared to the first ones you submitted. Doing a bit better $$ every time
Thanks!! I want to get more to like 40% - 50%
I like your videos but probably shouldn't chew gum and talk lol
!!!! Oh man!! You’re totally right I didn’t realize
U got scammed bro
You think so?? I mean you could be right. Tatums cards are gonna creep up as we get deeper into playoffs but I was already up $30-$40 on it. This Stroud Will Probably cool off a bit this summer then in season will pick up traction in value
