I want to buy some your eBay cards what’s your contact info let’s do it off eBay and save some fees do you have IG or what’s email?
Great stuff! Definitely is a good reminder that minor defects on the back can still be PSA 10's. Love the excaliburs too, that's a set I've enjoyed grading
Appreciate the comment! Actually wanted to chat with you about something, but not sure how best to message you. :) If you're keen to chat, drop me a note: tim@whuppit.com
Signed up for your app today. A how to vid would be nice.
I can work on that for sure. Anything in particular? Or just a general overview?
Nice strategy and nice cards! I’ve got about 4 promo orders going in myself! 🍀🤞
Nice! Best of luck!
Nice job with the Phoenix cards.. seems like super low risk with the right players and the high gem rate
Would love a video on tips for selling the graded cards! I agree not much out there discussing it. Also when declaring card value with PSA - do you comp out each individual card and enter that value? About to do my first submission and your videos have been so helpful!
Good breakdown
Thanks!
@@everycardastory love your videos! Do you cut all your penny sleeves or do you buy them pre cut on 1 side? I need some of those would make my life so much easier lol
@@Happylights0828 I've cut them myself in the past, but bought a full case of pre-cut from Cardboard Gold. I've had mixed feelings. The cut is super inconsistent so some are so deep that the corner of the card sticks out. I'll probably still buy another case when these run out because I'm lazy and the pre-cut is really nice, but I'm hoping they get a bit more consistent.
Awesome reveal!
Appreciate the explanation on blemishes ie print lines. Better than the generic corner, edge, etc others do. Really shows what to expect with the common blemishes that litter sports cards. Thanks
I know I have a tendency to ramble a bit so it's nice to hear someone found it useful. :) Print lines are just _soooo_ common on today's cards.
there is 178 psa 10 on the teal explosion parallel with a rate of 70%. it is one of the highest pop variations of the #277 hoops card. makes sense why it is going down.
Yup. Super solid points on pop count and gem rate. Definitely makes sense for it to come down, just kind of interesting how in this case, you can literally see the exact sale where it flipped. :)
Great video ... what would you say is your grade rate of cards off ebay ? I soutce off ebay to tricky cause eberyone lists there cards as near mint pack fresh .. get the cards and theres all sorts of issues .. for me id say 7/10 cards i get off ebay are un gradeable
Awesome cards man! New subscriber here!
I think wembanyama market is down bc everyone doing same thing grading every wemby card they own and its supply vs demand just too many wembys
Oh you're 100% correct. It's a bit of the off-season and a bit of supply/demand for sure. I'm kind of taking a mixed approach right now where I don't mind being a bit more open to offers on some of his base and other things with higher pop counts, while being a lot less aggressive selling some of the parallels that are a bit harder to get your hands on.
@@everycardastory everyone grading same exact players and same exact cards honestly they do same thing in football with cj stroud
@@joelkaplan2157 For sure. Makes sense...those guys are probably your safest bet at least for moving cards quickly. Some great cards of the "other guys" tend to sit around for quite a while. Grading other less popular stars though is really starting to grow on me (I think you'll see some mixed in a few upcoming submissions) because the low-price point means you can nab some really cool cards of them. You just have to be ok with maybe sitting on them a little bit longer.
@everycardastory I think more then 1 exact science to it that's why people don't only grade those guys
What's the software you use at the end to keep track of things?
That's whuppit.com/. Built that for myself because I outgrew my spreadsheets. :) There's a discount code in the video description if you want to kick the tires (also comes with a free 30-day trial anyway)
What’s your strategy for the cards you receive that you deem upgradable? Great video!
Solid question! I either post them on eBay raw, and note any significant flaws, or, more and more, I'm sending them to COMC. A lot of the cards I don't grade are just super tiny blemishes...a dot or indent here or there. I'm pretty picky, typically. COMC so far has been really good about marking any with significant issues as a lower quality as they list them.
@@everycardastory definitely thinking about sending to COMC. Theres just too much effort in putting it back on eBay and shipping it again. Rather have all my graded cards on eBay.
Cool reveal and awesome cards! Did you purchase these cards on ebay/comc or pull them in packs?
In this case, everything in the order is from eBay. That's where I get most of my cards nowadays, though I do some ripping for fun for sure. I do use COMC as well, but mostly for PC cards-I've been picking up some nice Ginobili, Tony Parker, Tim Duncan and David Robinson's from there lately.
wish you didn't say "um" so much...just found your channel and thought I would check out future videos...
Very nice cards, good luck.
Beautiful cards. I love grading the same kind of stuff
Great cards brother hope they all 10
You and me both. :)
2 much talky talky....need faster action
Great video! the answer to that question is easy: "it depends on the collector". People who make a living off of cards, yes, it might not be worth it. For me, this is ONLY a hobby. I buy raw cards for $1-$3 dollars and grade them and sell them to local sports cards stores. I always come close to at least doubling my money. The key is education. Educating yourself on what is being bought.
"It depends" is not anyone's favorite answer, but almost always the correct one. :) And fully agree on educating yourself on what you're buying. There's a lot of learning involved-learning what sells and what doesn't, what prices are likely to dip or rise and when, how different cards grade & their common issues, etc.
First time your content popped up and I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed it. Always enjoy the insights shared with grading orders, so your discussion was great. Subscribed.
I appreciate the kind feedback! Thanks for subscribing. :)
Nice job on the pre-grading! Take your time with your explanations, as someone who is just starting his side hobby journey with grading cards to supplement my own collection and make a little money on the side, I love hearing other folks mindset on grading. I also would like to know more about your app and what you might charge after the free trial, thanks!
I appreciate the feedback. I love detail, but wasn't sure how long people wanted to spend watching these things. Good to know at least some folks want the details. :) The app is up now in beta at whuppit.com/. Still experimenting for pricing (literally just put it out) and if you do want to kick the tires, my plan is to reach out to everyone to get feedback on that, features, etc.
This was very in depth and informative, thank you!
What’s the ste you’re using for you’re analysis I can’t find “Whuppit” I love the breakdowns
It's whuppit.com/ (check the vid description for a discount code)
Just came across this video. Really cool to see you crunch your numbers down and share that with everyone! Excited to see more! I've definitely been roasted for grading cheap cards but there is a lot of profit to be made there for those who want to put in a little more work. Thanks for the shoutout as well! I was definitely surprised to hear my channel mentioned with some of the other ones I love watching!
Yours was one of the very first I stumbled on when I started getting back into the hobby. Thanks for all the incredible content you've put out there!
@@everycardastory No problem! Looking forward to seeing more videos from you soon!
Lower grade like psa 1-7 you can make some money. I heard psa 1 is worth more money than psa 9
Killer vid, only suggestion is to show the cards ur talking about more....need them visuals
Good suggestion. I can definitely make sure to do more of that in the future on these.
The problem I’ve found with grading low end cards is the amount of time and work required for a $30-$50 return. And sell fees are a pain. But I guess if you enjoy doing it the time spent is not a deal breaker for you. My personal opinion is grading a card with a raw value under $30 does not make sense.
I think you hit the nail on the head-it comes down to how much time you want to be spending on this and what your goal is. The per-card profit is a lot lower, so to make anything significant you need to be grading a lot of volume, which takes a lot more time.
If 9s of modern cards cost less or more of raw will be the downfall of psa
I think it's going to be really interesting to see what happens with 9's on the ultra-modern stuff long-term. There's a lot of them out there, which I think is part of the problem, but it's really hard to imagine them staying cheaper than raw down the road. Definitely feels like value for collector's who don't mind nabbing gorgeous 9's instead of paying the 10 premium.
Your app look fantastic! Already registered!
Oh nice! I appreciate the kind words! :) I'll check in with you there to see how you get along. I've got some fun stuff planned for it, I think.
Agree that Teal Explosion and Blue Tmall are some of the best parallels! That Vince is beautiful!
Yeah, I love the photo on the Carter this year. Ended up selling that one to someone who is working on the rainbow-bet that one will look pretty sweet once it's completed!
Taking 3 mo. Now for psa sub!!! Yikes....prices lowering as i wait....ouch
Ouch. Yeah, never feels good when you're waiting and can see the prices dropping the entire time. Hope your orders get back to you soon!
Congrats on that Zay...nice card! Nice order in general 🤙
Thanks! Definitely pretty happy with this one.
Sound is messed up
That sucks. In what way? Just played it back and it sounds ok...
I wish that those court kings level 2's had a more short printed look to them, and I wish that PSA would label them level 2's, so they don't just look like the base.
Yeah, I think a Level II designation on these from PSA would be really nice to have for sure.
I just ran across your channel, and I really enjoyed this review and I appreciate your input. You have definitely earned my subscription!
