Best way to make stubs?
-
It’s pretty easy to do, though a little time consuming. I usually flip cards that are between 30-150 stubs of the buy and sell difference. I do over 300 plus transactions a day. That’s my method and it works for me. Though I’m sure other people use different methods and make more stubs on a daily basis.

Like King said, be patient. On a good day I can flip and make between 15,000 - 25,000 stubs. There’s people that can do better than that. I usually stick with the low-hanging fruit. I generally just flip silver and bronze cards. Don’t forget about the unlockable cards, especially the jerseys.
I never did this before, is it as easy as just placing buy orders for cheap and re-selling for higher?
Yea if the card is 1400 sell now and 2000 buy now. You would place an order for 1401. When you get it then list it for 2001. Difference of 600 stubs minus the 201 for tax. Thays 400 profit. Do that in volume and you're making stubs fast

Sorry I should have said after you own it, put the order for it to sell it for 1999. 1 stub under the 2k price. Not 1 stub over

I’ve heard that flipping is a good way. Which cards should i try to flip and which ones make the most profit?
Equipment to me is the best but that’s only for about the first week or two when the game first drops. Main thing is to buy low and sell high, you’ve probably heard that before. Look for cards/equipment that have the biggest gap. Find some cards to watch, pay attention to trends during the week and weekend. Scroll thru the live series cards on the market and see who’s close to possibly being bumped to a new tier. Keep a select few in mind and keep up with who’s hot in MLB. Watch players WAR rating. You can make out huge when theres a roster updates. As time goes on you have to invest in more of a card or cards to make profit because as the year goes on there’s more and more of such card(s). I made out like crazy with buxton. Around 700k profit.
Just beware of when content drops because people will sell off to buy new content. Some prices really take a hit and take some time to get back up. Good luck brother

If you can predict the second part of an Event you will know what to buy on the cheap when a new Event is released.

personally i make stubs cleaning up mistakes like someone underselling a card I'll just buy and repost it right away for profit. I've found I can make a few thousand a day just doing that if I check at the right times

He is right... I rarely ever flip during a big content drop unless I'm buying and selling immediately. Don't ever wait even a day lol. You shpuld always buy and sell immediately but there are some cards you hold on to for the long run

I’ve been flipping cards the last two days, at first I hated it but now I’ve gotten slightly addicted to it lol. Haven’t played much of the ACTUAL game! It’s insanely time consuming though, in two days I went from 6000 stubs to 34,000, is that good or still amateurish?

2 days you made 28k i can assure you that you wouldv'e not come anwhere close to that from after game rewards. So not to bad. And it's not about ametuerish or not it's about profit margin. 28 k in 2 days is not a bad margin.

There are great margins on common and bronze cards all over the place, you can place a ton of orders and let the full the sale them. I mainly can make anywhere from 60-100 a flip.
I’ve tried doing golds but often they tend to wildly fluctuate and cut quickly into margins...ply hah have gl constantly pull down orders when someone undercuts you or you risk being buried by other orders.
Basically my advice is find commons and bronzes with margins and buy a ton.

I’ll check those out today, I was doing silvers only but then actually started doing Nelson Cruz cause the margin was huge.

I’m in the same boat. You definitely have to reserve some time for flipping. I’ll make somewhere between 20,000 to 40,000 stubs. Using it to finish off my team collections.

Don't bite if you see people outbid you.
Impatience costs you.
Just leave it as is, it'll go through as long it's not a spike.
As a UK player, best times for me to flip are buy at night and sell during the day. Golds and under are usually OK at any time but diamond flipping requires timing.
Obviously look for wide margins and remember sale tax.
