Each one has a uniquely timed theme, and picks some of the best choices from our Formula-Based Sports Card Rankings. In Sports Card School, we talk about the top ways to diversity your sports card investment portfolio.

This article will explain how to build a strategic plan heading into The National – whether you’re going or not. On Lefty Cards last week, Kendall McKee talked about his plan to potentially liquidate cards heading into The National, so as to “free up funds” to spend at the show. I highly encourage people NOT to look at…

How To Spend $1k On Jordan Love Cards – $1k Budget Builder
As the 2024 NFL Season approaches, the window to buy football cards for a bargain is closing, rapidly. It’s still June, but prices are rising, especially for the top QBs. One QB that I’ve talked extensively about on the Sports Card Strategy Show and am on the record saying he’ll be one of the top three most desirable players at The National in July and into the 2024 NFL Season, is Green Bay’s Jordan Love. He showed poise under pressure throughout his early season struggles as the Packers’ starter in 2023, and used that poise to make a huge run towards the end of the regular season and into the playoffs. The Packers have a young, talented, well coached program and are bound to make a run at the NFC North division this year as long as Love stays healthy – which he should. I’m not typically someone who waits for performance spikes to sell…

NBA Finals 2024 Sell Alert: Luka, Kyrie, Tatum & Brown
For pro basketball cards, there typically is no better selling marker than an NBA Finals appearance, especially for star players and Finals MVP candidates. However, we’re always careful not to make blanket statements when it comes to advising you when to sell certain athletes, because it all depends not only on what particular cards you own, but how much money you’re into them for. And what can make things even more perplexing is that guys like Jayson Tatum and Luka Doncic have had NBA Finals baked into their pricing, and aren’t necessarily seeing the rise we would have expected – especially for Tatum as the Celtics are up 3-0 as of this writing and look to clinch the Larry O’Brien Trophy ASAP. That said, now is still the time to look to sell cards of Luka, Tatum and even Kyrie Irving, Jaylen Brown, Kristaps Porzingis, Dereck Lively and other supporting cast members for both the…
Top Giannis & Steph Cards To Buy Now – $1k Budget Builder
One of the best ways to make money flipping sports cards is to find the right card for the right player at the right time and go where they ain’t. Examples of the right players are guys who have won NBA MVP awards, and NBA Finals MVP awards and perennially are top five players in their league. The right time is to buy them when their prices are down due to them not being in the news, not playing, etc. The guys we’re talking about today are two of the best liquid guys in the hobby – Giannis and Steph Curry. But finding the right cards is different, trickier, and that’s where our formula based rankings come into play. We’ve run several Giannis and Steph Curry cards through our formula at NoOffseason.com and now have a clear picture of where the most profit can be made. Let’s say you wanted to spend $1k on sports…

Using Fantasy Football ADP To Find Sports Card Plays
I’ve been obsessed with Fantasy Football since 2003. Specifically, dynasty fantasy football. I’ve always loved the challenge of building a team that actively competes with other teams that peers build. In fact, from 2006-2011, NoOffseason.com was a fantasy football website that helped people win their dynasty leagues and IDP leagues specifically. In fact, one of the main reasons I was drawn into the hobby again back in late 2020 was due to the fantasy sports aspect of sports cards. The ability to challenge yourself to pick and acquire sports cards that are going to increase in value during a specific period of time is obviously my favorite thing to do, and a main reason why I rebooted NoOffseason.com around that very premise in 2021. In fact, like minds Kendall McKee of LeftyCards.com and Andy Cason of FootballCardQuest.com and I have bonded huge over the same passion, and also found ways to use our fantasy sports…
