Funding your hobby...

[doug.goodman]

I sell my services to others for money to fund my hobby.

[Directly]

Open your eyes, look around--many collectors aren't interested in just buying baseball cards.

Diversify--look around!

This week I bought a antique sign and some other artifacts for $305.00
Sold the lot for $1050---

Purchase a raw 1968 Ryan RC a 1958 Gibson RC and a 1972 Munson RC for $550 sent to PSA sold for 1550.00

One time I bought a piece of jade for 25.00-sold too cheap for 500.00

Bought a Civil War belt buckle for $100 sold too cheap for 800.00

--Buy-sell-trade--if you think someone might pay more-buy it--!

That's pretty funny.

Card Prostitute? I have been doing that for years. When I finish with my next client and the one after that I will have done two.

I lose on most card deals but make up for it in volume!!
And whomever only talks about winning purchases, they are either not telling the whole story or haven't done enough deals..

I just trade pictures of dead presidents on paper for pictures of dead ballplayers on cardboard.

It’s rather simple.

Partially correct Brian.

Ben is dead, but not a president, but an interesting fellow nonetheless less.

I’ll trade 4 pristine Abes for one of your Bens though.

Straight truth right there.
