Will flipping be a viable option this year?
-
I know it’s still really early. Last year was my first year playing from day 1 and so I worried that margins would never open up. But alas they eventually did.
This year they’ve made the TA cards unsellable which were always the best cards to flip. Does anyone think the margins will open like normal and flipping will be an option to make stubs or do the unsellable TA cards damage this?

Making topps no-sell is a big one for me as it had been my primary flip method for a fee years now once the season got going.
I'm lucky enough to have 1.1M stubs with LS and Chipper completed so hopefully I can find new avenues once my other sources dry up and they will dry up.

send me one too lmao

I swear those posts are here every single year. Right now everyone is trying to flip (especially those biggest tryhards, those will have 48 millions of stubs in July) and that creates smaller margins. Don't worry it will get easier in summer as people will not care about stubs that much anymore and tryhards will have their millions already. Then you will be able to get every card, except for Alomar (sorry

Can I please get in on the PM too? I even tried equipment and those margins are really small too. I've settled for selling off all my dupes, but even some of those are down to QS prices already.

Hahahaha….you know my pain. And yeah, I’m pretty sure I was posting this last year as well. The more I think about it TA in 21 was also unsellable. I think I made my bounty on LS and the non TA 42s. You’re right, just have to be patient. I just see guys saying they are flipping 150k+ a day and when I find good margins, the cards don’t move at all.

there just aren't enough supply of desirable/easily obtainable cards to go around at this early stage of the game, hence the margins suffer because everyone is trying to buy and sell the same cards

48 million, ive seen over 100 mill in stub transfers happen so some people have alot of stubs. Alot of gate keepers this year but ive done better compared to this time last year flipping and hopefully investing.

Yes. I don't bother flipping until june though. Anything with decent margins this early is prone to getting accidentally involved in stub transfers so I'll pass on that

Ive been catching alot of stub transfers on Diamond Sponsorships. I sent screenshots to SDs early on but they keep happening.. so
Hey, over here.
