    I've flipped for about 2 million so far

    How much time did it take you to get that much and what did you start with? Is that just flipping or with playing game and selling anything you get in packs?

    I worked the market a decent bit...I pulled Tatis...sold him and started from there ..just flipping

    I think if people put as much effort into working the actual stock market as they do with these cards, there would be many self made millionaires on this forum. I get the thrill of the chase of gathering 3 million stubs, and I guess the chase is the only reason for doing it but it doesn't mean anything. I mean, what can you do with 3 million stubs?

    For me the interesting aspect of all this card flipping is how real this virtual stuff is to some people. I see this "fantasy into reality" aspect is spilling into the real world, with the introduction of NFT's. Millions of real dollars being paid for a jpeg, simply because it's the only jpeg of that type in existence.

    Not even comparable. Nice try though

    People are just better in general. They are better at the game which is obvious if you play online and better at the market when you take a look.

    People don’t want to sell a card to the highest bid, they want to list it themselves. They also want to post a bid and buy cards for cheaper. Less ways to earn stubs brings in more people to the market as well. The profits shrink massively. It’s not one thing it’s like 20 things built up over years.

    This market system worked for a bit but it will probably be like this for a while now. People don’t care if a margin is negative, they just want it for less than the buy now and want to sell it for more than the sell now.

    There is still some out there but it’s mostly 1-2k flips at the most

    What is shozone?

    It tells people who don't know how to flip what the most profitable cards are at all times. Then everyone flocks to the cards that are most profitable and the profit completely disappears within seconds

    Exactly! If you use showzone you ain’t making any stubs because you and a thousand other guys are flocking to the same cards and you 1 up each other until the value is arbitraged out in no time………then they all go away and I capitalize on the rebound 15 minutes later.

    The walls put up (10-50 of the same price) drive me crazy.

    Another one that drives me nuts is when someone undersells by a large margin..."I want to sell my card quick" no you'll just be underbid and they price is shot now
