Beau K. What is your dream card? I graduated from UNC; MJ was my sports hero as a teenager. The ‘shot’ was done when I was 11 years old. I think the Home Court card is very cool. Just haven’t run into a ‘deal’ yet. I’m considering buying Anthony Edward prizm purple wave but all the recent comps that card was never near the target price. the target price is 92 and the comps between 107 and 255. How can we aim for the target price if the comps are higher? After a couple offers and counters I sold a card listed on my eBay…

We answer these questions and more… Today we’re going to touch on questions from: Cooper Robert Cody Daniel Tim (X2) Guy Carmele Wesley Robert Terry Robert G. I recently opened in ebay store, but have been selling on the platform for quite a while prior. I have a lot of success selling low end cards ($2-$20) but have little to no success selling Slabs (Graded Cards). Do you guys have any tips to help drive some sells on graded, higher dollar cards? With everything going on with the tariffs going on, I wanted to ask if it makes sense to turn off International shipping? Totally out of my depth on the potential long-term impacts but wanted to ask the question for the No Offseason family. Just starting out collecting again and came across these two jordan “error” cards. The…

Today we’re going to touch on questions from members: Joe Terry (X2) Eli Mason Terry Dylan Myke (X2) Carmele Jason Ken Mike Eric James Sam Wesley Dean Eli Benny Mike Hunter Cooper Daniel If I have purchased 4 of a particular card, should I split these into separate PSA orders to improve my probabilities of gemming? A guy I sold to on Facebook reached out about an 85 star Jordan card 101. I offered to get it graded and consign to sell. I just wanted your opinion on legitimacy. Picked up a Jalen Hurts Disco Prizm PSA 8. The main issue is the print line across the middle of the card. This card raw is more than PSA 8 which could make this a solid graded to raw play. Would you agree? Hit this Rookie Deca Auto Booklet out of Triple Threads in a break. Should I hold or sell? Bought four Roman Anthony Sterling…

In this episode of The Premium Pod, we help premium members make money flipping sports cards. Paul and Lefty break down the initial news of Victor Wembanyama being shut down for the year, and what to do about his cards, particularly the 2023 Prizm Silver PSA 10s. We also break down some of Paul and Lefty’s main plays they’re working on, and Paul reveals why certain Michael Jordan Star Cards may or not be graded by PSA. We answer these questions and more… Today we’re going to touch on questions from: Member Names here: Joshua Rick Brian Joshua Terry I’m seeing quite a few Jordan Love Donruss Downtowns on the market near the formula target price. They look good but there seems to be some nervousness in the community about submitting these to PSA, especially when it comes to centering. Some of the cards I’m seeing on eBay look solid and I’m likely to buy…

In this episode of The Premium Pod, we help premium members make money flipping sports cards. We answer these questions and more… Today we’re going to touch on questions from: Member Names here: DJ Andrew Jason Wesley Cody Ian Peter Brian A common theme you talk about is “cracking” and resubmitting. And some folks talk about being nervous that they won’t get the grade they’re hoping for when they crack and resubmit to PSA. Why take the risk on a crack and resubmit vs just using PSA’s crossover service? You still pay the grading fee and if the card won’t grade to your minimum threshold, they leave it in the existing slab and send it back. What am I missing? I’m considering a crack and grade play on a Barry Sanders 1989 Score #257 Base Becket 9. The comps on a PSA 10 $1,400 & SGC 10 $710. I’m considering to crack and submit to…

We answer these questions and more… Today we’re going to touch on questions from: Ian – ASK THE GRADER Chad (X2) Wesley Jaeden Joshua Scott Mike Terry Benny Eli Rick Zach Mike Matt Tim Peter Matt I’ve been trying to get an answer about the numerical grades assigned to a graded card. If grades are 1 to 10, how do you arrive at the grade numerically. Meaning, if the card is slightly off-center on the front and back and there is 1 soft corner, everything else is great, what is the grade, and how much do you count each flaw – quarter point, half point, etc. Do you deduct points from 10 or add points to zero? From watching Sports Card School and some past podcasts, your suggestions on baseball seem pretty straightforward–sell almost everything in March, or maybe…

We answer these questions and more… Today we’re going to touch on questions from: Member Names here: Brandon Benny Jason Jared Chris Eli Eric Terry Patrick Ken Ron Joshua Cody A. Cody R. Eli Ryan Leo I’ve been stocking up on some Roman Anthony cards for when he gets called up. I’ve got the Atomic Refractor, a Refractor numbered to 499, a Speckle Refractor numbered to 299 and a Green Mojo numbered to 99, all PSA 10’s. When he gets the call up what is the percentage of promotion I should use for my auctions? How should I navigate the available promotions that ebay has to offer? In other words, should I be promoting the sales, and for how much? I know some of these things may seem simple as a tenured eBay user, but for many of us…

We answer these questions and more… Today we’re going to touch on questions from: ASK THE GRADER – Andrew McDade Benny Ritchie Mike Cyruss Adam Andrew Patrick Josh Shane Jason Matt Cyruss Matt Mike Bryan For cards that have sticker autographs does it affect the grade if the sticker is not centered or crooked when the sticker was placed onto the card? Also does centering of autograph on the sticker or card affect the grade? I have provided an example of a 2024 Bowman U that the sticker was not straight. I’m new to selling cards but I’ve been collecting on and off since the 90s. I’m wondering how you determine whether to sell a card as an auction or “buy it now” and how you determine the price. When buying cards during the off-season when they’re low and…

In this episode of The Premium Pod, we help premium members make money flipping sports cards. We answer these questions and more… Today we’re going to touch on questions from: Beau Josh Terry Eric Joshua Lawrence Connor Walt (Lee) Michael Drew Bryan Adam Bryan Andrew When a card is bowed/curved does this effect the grading if it is centered and otherwise in perfect condition? I’ve been buying multiples of the Caitlin Clark 2024 Select Concourse #72. Because of the chrome finish on that card, I notice a lot of dots or “dimpling” in the contour areas, along the curves in the design. They are on every card and seem like just a common part of the card print process. I’m just curious how much they impact a grade though, or if they’re so common a fixture the grader doesn’t really ding the card for them. When measuring the centering of a card and the landmarks…

For just this case I was looking for the 2023 Panini Prizm Silver Sam LaPorta #332 so I bought one and now that I have it and am looking at others I wonder if the seller knew what card they were actually selling. I’ve had several buyers contact me concerned they have not received their shipment . They all have been eBay standard shipping. What is the appropriate time to ask them to wait before issuing a refund? 4-6 weeks? And do I refund the shipping amount, as well? Also, what if the card arrives to…
