I would love to be able to buy sealed boxes and hold them til prices go up, I just have zero self control and my curiosity would end up getting the best of me.

[@AgentTSwandol]

LoL me as well, traded a Anthony Edwards Select Shimmer #'d to 49 for 4 Optic Megas, 2 Optic Blasters, 7 Chronicles Hangers & 7 Chronicles Fat Packs 3 days ago.... Only got 2 Megas Left lol

[@arthurseymour9453]

Hi I just give you your 500 like good job Learning a lot from you

[@hillbillyballer]

Or the dreading thought of “what if” what if my box has that Lamelo Auto, or a potential 1 of 1

[@majindomttv3903]

I understand this feeling but got to keep your mind on the money. 12 years ago I bought some Pokémon packs from 1998 and didn’t open them I got them for around 22 a piece and I sold them last week for around 350 a piece. Just buy put it in the safe and try to forget you have them lol

[@JackGoBigOrange]

It’s all about discipline, I think u can do it .

[@jevi4767]

Great info. - TIP: Search old books - I found a 53 Satchel Paige used as bookmark once.

[@colescards6634]

I found a Wayne Gretzky card top loaded and in a library book a few years ago

[@t-pott4504]

Wow!

[@richardtaylor6341]

Maybe you could give that Satchel to Papa Joe as a poke.... Let's go Brandon!

[@user-se4pg7oh2f]

Thank you for all the information you proved. I been collecting cards since I was 10 and I am now 53. My dad and I would enjoy our time together collecting cards. My dad pastes away in Oct 2023 and I am wanting to do card collecting as a full time hobby. So wish I knew there was a market for collecting years ago. I would not be struggling to making ends meet. I have alot of cards and hoping to go to the card shows and hope I can make a profit so I can get my bills paid. So I want to say thank you. I have been watching you and all your utubes to learn. You are an extraordinary person and love seeing you and your son enjoy ripping cards like me and my dad used to do. I want to thank you and My God Bless you and your family. Keep up with your kindness and wisdom. From one of your biggest fans Johnny Greenfield, USMC/army semper fi

[@tylerladd4043]

I think a good tip is don’t get too greedy! I bought a lot with a joe burrow field level green rc, a Jacob Eason mosaic genesis rc and a few other various Herbert base rc’s for $125 knowing the Eason at the time was selling for $250 and I’d immediately double my money and have good QB rc’s as profit. So I listed the Eason for $250 and got an offer for $200 (would have made my money back and then some) but declined thinking I’d get more. Well since then I haven’t gotten an offer and the card is worth less than $100 now and I still have it lol you learn quick that way 😂

[@519hockeycards7]

As a Vendor At Card Shows and a general lover of hockey, I can’t stress the “Make An Offer” enough! Like Jeff said, if you know your stuff and did your research there’s a great chance that seller will give you 5%-20% off. And yes come back! Last day of big shows is known as “deal day”

[@DuraDarkFan]

Let’s make this simple… the best deals are in the off season of any sport. Anyone will tell you this ✅ The market is a cycle buy Football low in early summer and buy Basketball low in early Fall.

[@yinglee3656]

👍👍 What should we do during the new season?

[@joshuaparnes9683]

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge to us beginners. Very informative and helpful. I also enjoy using your app.

[@majindomttv3903]

Thanks to you and the sports card investor app. I was able to get a graded Kevin Durant while it was down 28% got it for 78 bucks. While the app has it going for around 100 and earlier this year was up around 150-160. I feel like The knowledge you are giving gave me an idea when to get in and plenty of wiggle room for profits during negotiation. The hunt is more fun to me then the sale though lol

[@user-ns2yi9yu9v]

Very helpful info thanks!!! 🙏

[@JackGoBigOrange]

Great video man , tons of helpful tips .

[@zeelowsguys]

Just recently I was at a local market and scored over 1300 old basketball cards for $10 score of the century. Lots of fleer topps, upperdeck and skybox, even a couple bowmans best 😊

[@j-wilk4835]

Shit man even if there wasn't anything worthwhile in that lot you could sell the lot for more than that

[@mattpavey3062]

Totally agree about keeping only sealed boxes. But the issue is which one should be purchased besides the auto card boxes. That seems to be the only way to do it!

[@steveangelmusictravel]

Hope to see you at the Toronto Expo!! You always seem to go everywhere!!

[@kempersportscards8341]

Love this channel, Go Cards!!! Go ravens!!! Go Bengals!!!

[@jakobh6257]

Great info Geoff 👍

[@darrenmckay3026]

Just meet you at the Toronto card show, it was a pleasure!

[@user-kf6pr4uj9z]

great content!

[@bigjax731]

Great video

[@jcbuckeye]

He don't talk about the tens of thousands of dollars he has lost in the market the last 6 months or so. If it's steady going down then buying and not selling at the right moment or if that moment hasn't happened then you are only losing money

[@aidanforsyth1831]

Needed this lol

[@MecajoYT]

W video. W info.

[@stevenmccart709]

I stopped collecting in the early 90s for various reasons. My cards dated back to the early 60s (when I was a kid) no need to mention I wish I hadn't sold em all. I know I didn't have any 9s or 10s but , I do know those super stars I had would still have plenty of value. Damn it I treasured my Kofax , Mantle , Mays and I swear to God a Pete Rose rookie...all gone now.

[@jspjaime6796]

What level of market movers you have to be in to get the price alert option????

[@100acerlaptop]

Grading cards is also great way to make more money

[@dukeax6241]

Thanks for what you do so i'm trying to get a box of chrome black but i've watched the video of yours showing how people Go through the cards and take the good ones out and then result with superglue. Do you know of a rapid wall place where I can find an untampered one?

[@bobcalderon2534]

can you show more vintage cards. I really not in the new cards. I enjoy the show. Thanks Bob Calderon a new card

[@myles3605]

I bought a “mint” raw card on eBay and it was definitely not even close to being mint.....I clicked return item and it says I’m past the return period, I received the card about a week ago.....what should I do?

[@sugibear123]

He is at the card expo Toronto till Saturday.

[@12centcomicsandcards]

Is it a conflict of interest for you to use a pricing guide that you put out to get deals? I wonder if all sales get listed on the app… also, why isn’t the new low price that you pay added as the most recent sale of a card?

[@terryalexander563]

Do star players cards gain when they change teams? Example, will Derrick Henry's last Titans card go up? And will his first cards with Baltimore be worth more, depending on card type of course?

[@joemac84]

I’ve found eBay is the absolute worst place to get cards if you want a good deal.. and this is coming from someone who buys on eBay for convenience at times

[@jbzhitz]

-1st step to being successful investing in sports cards like Geoff- * become a millionaire When you’ve reached the first step, we’ll teach you step 2.

[@moosenull3309]

One tip I have & which I have prospered is: If you have a "buy it now" with more than a hand full of watchers, raise the price a few $$'s. I've sold cards using this strategy multiply times. Sorry, this wasn't a buyer strategy. More of an observant seller move.

[@rylanzietlow]

Do you think Brady’s cards will spike with his documentary coming out next Tuesday like Jordan’s did when the last dance came out??

[@hondagame7069]

yes

[@rudistorm3348]

There maybe a spike up but nothing like the huge increase of Jordan's cards. I believe Kobe's death was a huge factor in making all sports cards going up at that time.

[@ABSOLUTDJS]

Do you have your t-shirts for sale? Thanks.

[@jeremywright641]

What do you do when psa has listed 2 cards under the same serial number

[@michaelestes9199]

Yampers are hits too.

[@bensweetra4871]

What about selling 101?

Thanks Mommy

[@fhafifa5779]

I got into collecting myself, and doing research I found that apparently for UFC cards SGC (slabs) is the way to go, i was wondering if that was right. Or should i just stick with psa.

TooT!

[@ohno1017]

The card market has definitely took a dive in the last 6 to 7 months. Only thing really selling is psa silver prizm/holo of a few players. I'm trying to sell everything i have at discount prices. Not going good. Wish it wasn't true, fun while it lasted

[@johnscards4633]

Agree

[@joemac84]

Vintage market is fine don’t chase shiny overprinted cardboard

[@daleHarrison93]

@@joemac84 100% after 2010 everything got sleeved upon opening the pack...everything is in pristine condition..these people need to try find vintage cards in good condition what have real condition rarity.

[@daleHarrison93]

@@joemac84 even if they had a modern /5 card...they make tons of /5 every year so just because that exact card is /5 the player will have 300 cards with the same "rarity"...but they arent rare at all lol

How many thousands do you have to spend to get PSA 10's if you are sponsored by eBay

[@ipodtouchmaster9096]

Goeff must buy for long term cause every card I seen him buy dropped 30/60% in value shortly after he buys them.

[@ipodtouchmaster9096]

recent comps dont mean shit. if a card sold for $250 3 weeks ago and no one selling that card for less than $3k then that card is worth $3k since you can’t buy that card for $250 no more

[@ipodtouchmaster9096]

All that his fucking app does is scrapes info data from ebay. Thats it! Ebay is free and easy to use too

[@ipodtouchmaster9096]

Its GAY GOEFF
