This is the final official post of the 2015 Flip Quest.
Since my last post, I have made 2 or 3 very quick flips of 2015 baseball, football and basketball cards, netting me $465 in profit. This brings the total to $1,938.75.
The Red Crusade dude apparently rocketed off to Mars or something, because I have not heard from him again, unfortunately. I still hold out hope for the future.
That doesn't mean that this Flip Quest was a bust though!
Earlier, I had picked up the biggest single acquisition for my collection, ever - and guess what? It was a mere $38.75 less than the total that I had left for the Flip Quest! I find it very cool that the ending price was very close to the purchase price of the below cards.
I had drained Paul, a former super collector of a lot of his low end stuff, and like an addict, I went for the "hard stuff". That's right, peeps - low numbered, autographed, patch stuff. Hardly any of this ever sees Ebay so I was fortunate to have picked up this in one swipe. Here are the goods:
2003 Donruss Recollection autograph #/12
Very difficult to find minor league card (generally goes for $40 to $100)
Quite possibly my favorite patch card of him ever!
How can you not love this card? Dual check cut auto book
