Real notes from NoOffseason.com and Hobby Flipper members: flips that paid, lessons that stuck and the tools they use every day. First name and last initial, shared with permission.
Real flips, real money
On a tip from you I bought big into Oscar Piastri's 2023 Topps Chrome rookies and went 5 for 5 on PSA 10s — 9 tens and 9 nines out of 20 cards, including a 1998-99 UD Hardcourt Jordan insert. Couldn't have done it without NoOffseason. Subscriber for life.
I was burning in a Whatnot dumpster fire before I discovered your pod. Thanks to No Offseason I can see the light at the end of the tunnel — I am on pace to do over $20K on eBay this year.
My last submission from PSA — 50 cards — had a total ROI of 132%. If flippers would make data-driven decisions, they would see measurable change in their ROI.
I spent $714 in cards and grading, sold $923 with two cards still to go — a PSA 10 Yamal for $250 and a PSA 10 Woods for $289. It feels nice to finally make some real money.
I've been selling Wembanyama and Yamal cards and I'm on track for around $22,000 in net profits. No Off Season has helped me! This would not be possible without learning from you folks.
This play is entirely me following your advice. This is why NoOffseason is priceless.
My son and I have 31 cards into PSA over the last 90 days, all from listening and learning and using your tools. I greatly appreciate you!
All came back BGS 9.5s! You've made the hobby a lot more fun and exciting for me and my family.
My son is top 10 in the Flipper Rankings and we are loving this hobby we get to share. Thank you for helping us make it something sustainable.
I was struggling in this hobby before I found your podcast. Now I have created a sizable return monthly.
After watching all of the videos in Sports Card School, I chose the 1995 Jordan Electrified as one of my first raw to grade plays. Could not be happier with my decision to join.
I got a PSA 10 on an Amen Thompson Silver and a Jared Goff Silver rookie I bought at auction, using your centering tools.
Your content and advice has helped me go from a degenerate breaker to a shrewd card investor. Now my wife and daughter are reselling too — we run a family business.
Since finding the podcast I have completely shifted from breaking to buying singles. Now I can hit all the time by locking in on hard data, instead of just getting lucky.
Using the Sports Card School lessons I got my LLC and reseller permit and no longer pay sales tax on eBay.
I have already begun buying cards off eBay using the rankings page. Your centering tool is legit — it has already saved me money in grading fees.
The tools members use every day
99% of my purchases are made using the rankings. Those are worth the price of my membership alone.
I am a numbers and data guy and probably spend a little too much time looking at the rankings lists. Thanks for all of your information and knowledge.
It has really changed the way I buy cards. I live in the rankings page and use the analyzer tool all the time.
The new Card Analyzer and Predictor — holy moly, that thing is amazing.
Loving the new Card Analyzer and Predictor tool upgrade. The backbone of all my data and flipping strategy is the No Offseason information and support — enjoying the hobby more than ever.
The Card Analyzer and Predictor upgrade is amazing. One of the big reasons I've continued to be a premium member is you are always looking to innovate and enhance our tools and experience.
I've been using the Card Analyzer more and more, and I can see how much better and easier it is becoming to use. I really appreciate the work you've put into the platform.
Hobby Flipper is next level — a full-blown game changer. Thanks for everything you are doing.
Hobby Flipper and No Offseason have changed everything I do. If only I'd seen your podcast before spending a heap on rubbish cards, but better late than never.
Thanks for the addition of Hobby Flipper. Very good data and tracking of portfolio and potential additions.
I'm loving the new tools at NoOffseason, and Hobby Flipper is epic! Appreciate everything that you do, keep up the great work.
Haven't spent too much time on Hobby Flipper yet, but what time I have, I absolutely love it! I think Hobby Flipper is already a huge step in that direction.
Big fan of the show, and I'm excited to see how I can start implementing Hobby Flipper as part of my investment strategy.
Appreciate all you do. Pumped for Hobby Flipper.
There is so much information on this site (a really good thing). I'm loving Hobby Flipper! Keep up the great work. So glad to be a member and learning.
I'm in Australia and fully believe in the views you have. I have been a collector for 30+ years, and I will have my collection ready in NoOffseason and Hobby Flipper.
Man, you did a fantastic job on the new website. It's just about perfect.
What you are doing with the new site and all the data makes me grateful to have found you over a year ago. The new site is awesome.
I'm back! Gone for a few months and everything has upgraded! Awesome stuff.
Learning to flip the right way
It is mind-boggling how much I have learned since following No Offseason, and the mistakes it has prevented me from making.
Tried going at things on my own, but after blowing through over $1,000, I realized I needed some guidance and was lucky enough to find NoOffseason.com. Your site and wealth of info is astounding!
I've ripped way too many packs (mostly retail) and now I get sick looking at my 5,000+ card stash. I'm looking forward to jumping right into the buying singles and grading strategy.
I went down the rabbit hole in 2023 with breaks and binge ripping. Much more fun now that I have a plan, thanks to you.
Thank you for the analytical approach to flipping. You were one of the first pods I started listening to as I navigated my way back in, and I believe so much in the approach and strategy, I'm all in!
I came across your podcast and I wish I would have earlier! Your content and insights have really re-educated me about the current state of the hobby.
Love the podcast and content. After a few lessons learned on flipping and finding you online, I feel like I have a good understanding of what I'm doing now.
I've learned a ton from the premium content and listening to the Strategy Show.
Loving your takes on flipping singles after getting back into the hobby after years away with breaks and ripping wax, and learning quickly that it's a losing battle.
As a long time breaker, you are 100% right with your take on breaking wax. Listen to Paul, everyone. I got killed for years and am trying to do more of what you are doing.
I've always been more of a vintage collector, but your show gave me a fun way to engage with modern cards without holding them in my collection. Really appreciate everything you do.
Love being a NoOffseason.com premium member, love the show. I'm flipping raw cards to build up capital, and I'm banking knowledge from the show and getting ready.
Thank you for all the help to date. I am having a blast getting up to speed, and I am already about halfway through Sports Card School.
Now that I have retired I wanted a meaningful hobby that uses my data background. Your approach to collecting is beneficial and fun.
I have learned so much since becoming a member and listening to your podcasts! Thank you for everything you do for the card market.
Keep up the great work! There is always something new to learn!
Been a listener for a while, finally upgraded to premium recently! Love it! Thank you for helping out in numerous ways to shine lights on different paths.
I've really enjoyed using NoOffseason and appreciate the tools you've developed. I really like the concept behind your platform.
I'm a new premium member and I'm looking forward to learning a lot more about flipping cards!
The show and the fam
This is why we stick with you brother, because you are honest and won't try squeezing us for a buck. Doesn't get any better than this.
I'm usually pretty skeptical of online coaches and paid groups, but you genuinely seem to care about helping the people in your community. It never felt like you were constantly trying to paywall every piece of useful information.
You are a breath of fresh air in the sports card podcasting world.
A reliable voice that speaks in real terms with real insight on the hobby. You have given me life again.
Truly appreciate the opportunity to be a member of NoOffseason! You and Sports Card Dad were my very first podcasts on cards, and it feels like I have been listening to you for ages.
I love listening to the Sports Card Strategy Show and Premium Pod each week while mowing the lawn. (I have to mow 8 acres!)
I'm a teacher and father of three, so I'm super busy, but I do what I can when I can. Your podcasts make for a great listen while I'm sitting in a cold hockey rink watching my kids practice.
I really appreciate all that you do and the enhancements you are making! My son is into Pokémon, so I'm glad he can tap into your knowledge now as well.
Just renewed for 2027! Loving the content and learning a ton! Looking to make some solid moves this next year!
I have bounced around from membership to membership, and I feel I've found the right place to be for me.
Thanks for everything you do with the website. I am new to the community but really like it so far.
Paul, thanks for all your advice and help recently!
Thanks for your thoughts, insights and strategy content!
Amazing podcast and amazing new site. Thank you!
I love being a premium member.
My only complaint is I did not find you sooner.
Still a new member and loving this unbelievable website and the data you have put together. Member for life.
A member for just over a week and your content and everything you offer is amazing.
A new member, and I love all of the data and information about sports card flipping.
I have been a member for about half a year and love all the knowledge you have shared.
