RE: Selling Cards as a Job
hi, ive been a part time sports card seller for 10 years, a full time seller for 6
i cant - wont - give specifics on how much i make, however, i make a living at it, and havent had to have a boss.
unlike what the poster above says: it isnt about how much work you do. if you work 24 hours a day, you wont become rich, just because you are working. you aint getting paid hourly
but i usually work 14 hours day, but im a one man operation. no employees to pay, etc etc etc
the three keys to making money: UPFRONT CAPITAL, MARKET RESEARCH, CLEAN SUPPLY LINES
if you dont have at least 5 grand to start with - MINIMUM - it will take you years to get off the ground.
if you dont know the market, you wont make money
if you dont have a ready (and consistent) supply of cards, that you can buy at a price that you can make a profit on, you will fail.
