What your loupe user name i am a loupe seller

[@JMacSportsCards]

@@WickedDiscounts I don’t use the platform really, but should be JMacSportsCards if I have an account all my accounts are the same name

[@davegreco4669]

Hey Jmac ~ curious how you handle selling $1-3 cards on eBay AND at shows (I set up at shows). How do you manage if someone buys multiple cards (think stacks of 10,20,50 cards at a show and then pull those off eBay?

[@SawyerOwens-fv7bk]

I’m 15 and I sell what I can afford on my dads eBay account and it helps me so I can keep going up and profit enough to build up for PC Cards and for my college. 95% of my sales are $1.50-$25 sales

[@JMacSportsCards]

Absolutely love to hear it, kept grinding and doing what your doing!!!

[@mikehorvath8176]

I have a whole bunch of NASCAR trading cards and some of my own personal baseball cards from the 80's that I want to try and list.....nothing worth too much money, most of them are junk wax cards.

That's awesome am doing same thing with my son. Stay ambitious, good things happend to those that are patient and are willing to put the work in. Stay on ur grind. Good luck !!!

[@dirkremmington]

Dude, you are crushing it... people don't understand what it takes to run a business....and your approach is spot on...keep up the great work!

[@JMacSportsCards]

I appreciate that!

[@lancefinke2006]

JMac - you’ve figured out quite a lot in your short time selling. Your business model is spot on. I started and have progressed similarly since 2014. Every collection purchased is both a treasure hunt and a challenge to maximize the ROI. And great job on the channel and your informative videos. The Epson printer trick was very useful.

[@JMacSportsCards]

Thank you been a part time seller since 2009 but agree with your sentiment as going full time the learning curve ramps up fast!!!

[@dwade21108]

90% of my eBay listings I sell $1-$5 and they do sell very well. JMac is on point with this. Awesome video again man!

[@jamesnguyen7069]

yep. no chargebacks!

[@quicksurf24]

Really enjoy your content! Keep on crushing your niche and I probably speak for many in saying, don't stop the video's. Thanks JMac

love the transparency JMac!

[@gregk6622]

always appreciate your insights - thank you for posting

[@otpbreaks7287]

Good video. I've been selling low end for about a year now. Even when prices fluctuate like they do, there will always be people buying low end. Staying consistent with listing everyday is the hard part. Get over that hump and week by week watch your store grow! Nothing more satisfying.

[@JMacSportsCards]

Facts!

[@cardvet7275]

Great video! I have been critical in the past and you responded directly to my comments. I will definitely tip my cap to you on this one. Very authentic audio. Congrats on your success.

[@JMacSportsCards]

Appreciate the comment and honesty!

[@JMacSportsCards]

Thanks and Cheers!

[@mireillerecords7670]

Great info! Thank you good sir!

[@Mufccards]

Great video, totally agree with you,I used to sell loads of $1-2 cards but I simply didn’t have the time, having a full time job and selling cards is difficult

[@JMacSportsCards]

I hear ya, very time consuming for sure.

[@jdssportscards]

Dude, I couldn’t agree more! Majority of what I am selling is $20 and below and majority of that is less than $10. It certainly pays off.

[@smalltownrips]

Completely agree! I enjoy the hustle and satisfaction of getting rid of cards that another collector would enjoy and make a couple bucks back to buy more.

[@JMacSportsCards]

100%

[@justinmeag]

You on it brother Wonderfully spoken and boiled down 2 eBay

[@BeavisCards]

Another cool thing about the ability to buy collections (since you arent afraid of moving lower end cards ) would be the treasure hunting aspect of it. How many gems have you found and how much fun do u get going through stacks of the unkown? Maybe the rush of ripping wax? Could be a cool video maybe your favorite “finds” in the wild. Love the content man keep it up!!

[@JMacSportsCards]

Yep great idea, found a Pedro Martinez 2003 Refractor yesterday that sells between $20-25. It sold within a couple of hours of listing for $20

[@Bacchibeatz]

That’s def the most fun part. That’s why I got back into card collecting after 30 plus years

[@PatTheBat16]

Appreciate this video. Good stuff my guy

[@JMacSportsCards]

Appreciate it.

[@G5ranch]

Awesome info. Thanks for sharing

[@JMacSportsCards]

You bet!

[@vanbeekbr]

Great video. I've had much better luck getting good cards, quickly, and well packaged from the "smaller" sellers than I have from these large sellers. I love buying low end cards as the enjoyment for me is getting to see all the fun cards.

[@cardvet7275]

Very authentic video.

[@davidthecardcollector]

That's great you are doing well selling low dollar cards, that is what I want to do someday after I retire. I sold mostly high dollar cards I cashed out of during 2020, 2021 but I sold some dollar cards as well to build my seller feedback and I enjoyed selling the cheap stuff more because I never worried about something happening to the package like I did with the expensive cards.

[@dlosportsguy]

Great information!! Thank you for sharing!

[@JMacSportsCards]

Glad it was helpful!

[@cards4life370]

Great content!

[@gambitinvesting1857]

i feel like if your in the hobby its a nice this to do on the side while working and building your collection, you have a nice business going low end cards are great but its all work gratz on the sucess and love the channel

[@belindabrown3672]

Awesome video, very interesting.

[@rizzascollectibles3165]

I do very similar- except I don’t do near as much volume, but you’re right, I’ve made thousands of dollars and built a nice collection just buying and selling low end

[@sportscardrippingteacher]

New sub! Nice prospective on selling cards. I enjoyed it!

[@JMacSportsCards]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@cosmicthrifter]

[@showoffyafresh]

[@JMacSportsCards]

I appreciate that!

[@JamesAnthonyCards]

Nice video JMac!

[@LumberNumbers]

I sell mostly only low end. Sell about 30-50 a week to support my PC and other hobby ventures, and obviously buy more to sell. I make money on every card and it’s fun offering the cheaper cards to people who don’t want to pay $5 for shipping. I love it.

[@coltenhoots9086]

This is awesome JMac I have the exact same mindset when it comes to selling low end cards! A lot of people see those cards as throw aways but I see it as money to be made like you said! I love when people get all weird when I tell them I do it part time because they think high end is the only cards that sell haha there’s money to be made in it! It’s worth the grind in the end

[@JMacSportsCards]

Exactly!

[@w.l.davisjr.1]

Thank You! And by the way, my ScanSnap does exactly what you said; you can take the wheel roller out!!!! Easy...

[@Codymurray293]

Great video! Just have a couple questions! 1. I don’t have a ton of cards that are interesting enough to sell. Where can I find cards when I can’t go to card show. 2. When buying cards what goes through your mind on figure what to buy. Like what to you sells quickly on eBay. 3. Is there a estimate on how many cards I need to post to start getting traction. Thanks so much

[@randomrips2112]

New subscriber. Well said. I don't do the volume you do but I do around 40 or 50 cards a week in the 1 to 10 dollar range. It's a nice way to get more for my PC.

[@JMacSportsCards]

That is awesome! Thanks for the support

[@teetoo3790]

[@lamarwiggins7386]

I appreciate the topic. I am an ebay seller and 95% of my cards are low end. I put in alot of work to move them but I love doing it. I wish I could sale them as fast as you do but maybe one day. Thanks for what you do!!

[@JMacSportsCards]

Thanks for sharing!

[@mantlecollector]

Was watching storage wars and dave hester said that the goodwill helped him with his thinking when his business wasnt doing well but showing him to sell the lower end stuff like nick nacks and how u will make more money off of that then trying to sell big high dollar items like a $5000 dining table set. Guess the same applies as to what the guy in the video was saying

[@steveallen1650]

JMac. I am a new subscriber to your channel and absolutely love your content. Well done brotha. I was looking for something for me and my son to do together and we recently decided to dive into selling the low end cards. I would love to see a video on how you price your cards.

[@JMacSportsCards]

Welcome aboard, and congrats on the new journey, video idea noted thanks!

[@tommys2339]

What's up JMac love the video. Here something you might want to do a video on. When should you give a Discount on your items? Or should you send your customers a 10/15% off on there next purchase? I'm new to eBay and you video have helped me out a lot I appreciate you brother. Thx

[@nickneubauer1420]

Subscribed! Great stuff JMac! Would love to see how you scan, price and list but I may need to just watch more of your older videos. I list cards for 99 cent auctions and charge $1 shipping. Would love to figure out how to get more traffic/volume. THANK YOU!

[@onetime3137]

How do u charge only $1 shipping ? With the ebay envelope thing ? If so how does that work ? Like where do u get th3 envelope as an example.

[@thatkidhector]

Great video man

[@JMacSportsCards]

[@matthewnelson8988]

[@scottcarr2871]

I collected alot as a kid. I thinking about selling some cards myself. Your videos seem very useful.

[@JMacSportsCards]

Go for it!

[@randomrips2112]

I've also made pick lists for all my commons and make them buy 2 get 2 free and move those junk base cards. Get them up there quick when a new set comes out and you can make a lot of your money back that you spend on boxes!

[@JMacSportsCards]

Smart moves...

[@David-fv7zg]

Really enjoyed the videos here. Your sales are up, but what is the profit margin? How much do you profit on those 191 cards? Thanks for sharing.

[@RetrowaveRips]

This is what i needed. I have all these cards and getting overwhelmed. Lol too many to take to shows too.

[@brentbackwoods2498]

I have a ton of 5 dollar and under cards but it's so time consuming listing then

[@Kelly_surfdude]

Just stumbled upon your channel. I sell ephemera and 90% of what I sell is in the $3-10 range. If you have backstock and a good listing/inventory process you can do just fine on low end items. Keep up the good work.

[@JMacSportsCards]

I just came across this video and i love it......... one main question i have though is when you refer to low end cards, is that like Base cards? Thinking about going back to doing Pick & Choose listings with a bulk discount on it but not sure for all my base cards when i open product

[@JMacSportsCards]

Anything valued $20 and under

cards $20 and under $1, $2, $3 cards...etc

[@terryducre9294]

Love that Let's go

[@jerryhitchcock6937]

You mentioned "high fees" as a deterrent to utilizing COMC ... Arguably relative, but if you're smart about it, it can still be profitable and take much less of your time than eBay. I've been on COMC now for over 2 years, have sold over $8K of cards on the platform - as long as you do mass submissions on "fresh pulls", you processing and postal fees are reduced significantly. You do have to do a good deal of research to determine which cards have the best chance of selling on the platform, but in general any product that has just come out will easily sell (mainly since there is little competition and you can sell at more of a premium). To me time is $, so now that I have my system down, I can make a very nice profit on cards that average @ $2 sold -

[@JMacSportsCards]

Great points

[@tonyhamilton9764]

Thanks for the info. As a buyer I agree with a lot of what you are saying on some of the larger sellers. I will buy from Burbank but skip COMC as soon as I see them. They are slow and their shipping is outrageous. Can't buy inexpensive stuff, it will cost you $10 for a $3 card and you wont get it until next month... Good luck!

[@JMacSportsCards]

Yep, a lot of their auctions are bought from COMC accounts as they don’t have to pay shipping fees, so their sales volume is a bit misleading.

[@draftdaysports3129]

Love watching your educational videos on this great hobby that we love. I'm learning all I can before I start my journey of selling on Ebay. In a future video, can you speak about if you have cards with $1.00 shipping, for example, and a buyer buys multiple cards? How would you go about combining the shipping ? Thank you JMac

[@mathman80]

Can't hit home runs all the time. Selling low-end and commons relieves the pressure of making the big sale which can lead to huge mistakes.

[@RaySarasin]

Enjoyed watching i learned alot thank you

[@JMacSportsCards]

Thanks

[@israelayala1590]

Really enjoyed this vid. I'm new to selling at the moment. Do you recommend opening up a store on ebay or just selling under my name acct?

[@JMacSportsCards]

Thanks, I would list until you max out the 250 free listings per month, then upgrade to a store once you go over that amount. That is what I did. Also the account name can stay the same with store, and you don't have to brand it really, just something I did for fun as it stays on brand with channel etc. End of the day people just want to buy the stuff, lol..
