This is not buying or investment advice. I’m simply reporting the data I’m seeing. Please do your own research and make your own decisions. Just because cards have increased in value up to this point, it doesn’t mean they will continue to do so.


I really don’t want to sound like a broken record. I also don’t want to sit here and brag about the cards I find and flip. In fact, that fear of being too “braggy” has stopped me from sharing some things from time to time in the past

Flipping cards successfully isn’t always easy, and I hope nothing I share comes off like it is.

Rather, my goal is to genuinely highlight the opportunities that do exist—from the cards themselves, to the many platforms, and the different ways people are finding success.

I wouldn’t keep showing my process if I didn’t believe there was room for all of us to win.

So, if you have successfully flipped a card, that’s big. It’s a start, and congratulations. I’ve been doing this for years, and I can already see that for some of you, you’re getting started a lot faster than I did.

If you haven’t had success, reflection is powerful:

  • Why do you think you haven’t been able to flip cards?

  • What can you do to overcome that challenge?

  • How can I help?

With all of that, here is the latest big flip. Stack the small wins and celebrate when the huge ones - like this - come along.

The $600 Card

Let’s just cut to the chase because I really want this to be more about the process about the card. COMC has come through yet again.

I found a Josh Gibson 2024 Topps Allen & Ginter Mini Framed Relics Bat for $26.

Here are the recent comps before I sold my copy:

More on my sale in a bit. First…

The Process (READ THIS)

Ok yes, the same old process I just talked about a couple of days ago. But stick with me—because there’s more here than just a repeat.
