$3–4K/Month Flipping Pokémon Cards on eBay

A guy on Reddit dug out his childhood Pokémon collection last year. Turns out it’s worth around $150,000 now 🤯

But his side hustle isn’t selling those cards. It’s a repeatable flip he stumbled into…

📝 He writes…

I started with selling some personal cards on eBay, then turned into buying and selling from local card stores to eBay, then buying collections off marketplace and selling them on eBay.

Buy whole collections cheap, break them up, sell the good singles 🤑

All in all I’m making about $3–4K/month after taxes, shipping, everything.

No sealed boxes or packs – just raw and graded singles. He’s adamant he’s not a scalper.

And the margins hold up. Buying collections at 40-50% of market value leaves room for 50-100% profit on the resale. Cards clean enough to grade PSA 10 can fetch around 3x their raw price 👀

Same playbook works for sports cards, Magic, or anime cards.

Pick a game you know well enough to price by eye 😎
