The WILD Untold Story Of SCV Sports Cards (2017-2024) 

Very well put!!

Thanks so much. It’s not if it’s when. It’s already done

I’m not 72, and believe you need to check your ego some….. IMO = SCR / SCI / and others promote this type of business = we have enough couch-potato/ YT influence / wanna be “capitalist” in our country HUNGRY to make money at ANY cost 👎🏻. Though I’m not your father, my advice is develop a REAL skill set and sell “cards” as a means to subsidize your income NOT as a primary source of income = dangerous approach unless you have NO MORALS 🍻

@@JoeyM007 I’m hungry to make money at any cost. Got it. I’m one to say cards isn’t a real industry largely, and want to find a new industry. But whatever you say

Thanks so much. Yeah I need to try and be happier more, because so far I have lived the dream and not enjoyed it to the fullest. You are right

Thanks so much. I’m still insecure or in the beginning stages of mine but that means so much

Thanks so much. Really means a lot to hear

I know. It’s a mess

Really appreciate you

Regrets are a real thing just have to accept and not let it cripple you yeah

Thanks so much. I wish you all the best. You are right it’s ruthless it truly is

@@SCVSportsCards thank you brotha. I appreciate it. I’ll keep you updated with my journey. Thanks again man, look foward to seeing more videos and learning.

Thanks so much. I really appreciate you

I mean just because I’m mad at some situation or an entity for a certain period doesn’t mean I’m not thankful for all the good times we have had. There’s no business play or bridge building thanking them here. I would say the same things even if they banned me tomorrow with 0 explanation

@@SCVSportsCards Everything in moderation. This video was that, so we agree.

Yeah for sure. Really true. Thank you

Thanks so much. Appreciate you as always buddy

Thanks man. Appreciate those kind words greatly. I just want to make the point anyone can do anything if they want it bad enough. But I truly appreciate you

Yeah for sure. It’s eye opening leaving that home town. Wouldn’t say it’s simpler here at all you would think it is but it’s not. Appreciate you man thank you so much

@@SCVSportsCards I hope things get more simple for you going forward. Knoxvegas has changed alot in the last 5 years. Crazy how much just housing costs have escalated. This sleepy city has woken up a bit.

Yeah for sure. Being happy is what matters

Would love to hear and read it if you get the time to type. Thank you

Appreciate it. Thanks so much

Absolutely have to live by it. Thank you

Sounds like a plan

Yeah for sure. Thank you

Thanks so much. Appreciate you giving me a shot and sticking with me. Means so much

Thank you as always my man

Yeah man. Same thing here on a larger scale

Appreciate you as always buddy. Yeah I’m still young and fresh in the game just have to keep the momentum

Yeah man. Exactly. The great ones want it more and go prove it

Thank you so much

Yeah for sure. Appreciate you sharing. I was in this before there was tons of money like there is now, or was, but yeah my Timing was pretty good

Thanks so much. Completely agree on Josh Allen. Lost the battle won the war on him

Appreciate you

Yeah for sure. It’s SCV You’ll get it right one of these days my man. Thanks for always watching and supporting

Thanks so much. Thats the goal to make these interesting, that means a lot you aren’t in much and stick around

I've been buying magazines for $10 and selling the cards inside for $2000 each. Trying to get hold of some back issues from the company. Hopefully they'll have thousands in stock lol.

That sounds profitable

Yeah that can happen for sure

Thanks so much man as always, every day scoping my stuff. Yeah all a journey, have to go with the ebbs and flows. Really appreciate you

Appreciate you

Thanks so much

Thank you

Good luck with that, wish you all the best. Appreciate you as always

I think that is exactly how you should be doing it 🎉

No I mean you can make a lot off of the cheap stuff. Will get in q and a

@@SCVSportsCards appreciate it and appreciate your content and style. Thank you

Graded some cheap dollar stuff of guys like Bijan and Chris Olave etc. As a 10 you'll make great money on those. As a 9 you can still make a little and just keep reinvesting ... circular flow. Money in, money out. Takes awhile but it works as SCV has explained. I can vouch for it

Interesting. Thank you for watching and sharing. Stories like this fascinate me

Thanks so much

I mean I’m just losing interest in sports that’s a big part of it, money is fine I just want to make more than what I have been

Yeah for sure. Had to get out

This is a good one of your digs.

Really appreciate you as always

Thank you

That’s crazy, but yeah it happens

What happened is it turned out that both coins the 1912s and 1911s Peso. They are true finest known extant specimens. In coins that's a big deal. They are like 1/1s for all the right readons. Literally the finest known. Keep up the good work.

Yeah man for real since the beginning

Thanks so much. Thought some would find it interesting

Yeah I have a few more to make like this

Would love to hear you elaborate. I have room to try and fail just need to be decisive and all in. Appreciate you though for taking the time to write. Curious what you see as the negative though and there being a beautiful disaster.

@SCVSportsCards So my thinking is with risk exposure and the lack of mitigation in the industry of collectibles. Go back 30 years. There were tens and thousands of people buying and selling cards. Everyone was making money. Then it just collapsed. Card values went to nothing. People say overprinting caused it a d it was because there were millions of cards. That's true to an extent. But the reality is the economics behind cards was just as much to blame. You need buyers to sell. People got fed up with the overprinting. They got fed up with the shorty product and designs. Basically, demand stopped. At that point those with heavy investments and over exposure and high risk got burned hardest. Only those who really mitigated risk survived. There's a ton of similarity to the two markets right now. Risk mitigation and limiting your financial exposure (especially in the ultra modern market where you play) will allow you to weather a potential crash where these #/10 autos and RPA etc tank. I'm not saying what you're doing is flawed. It's just economics and even your own story shows you've been exposed to the ups and downs of a fluctuating market. 2021-22 was the outlier. It's not happening again anytime soon. Fanatics is copying the plan laid out in the 80s just with the spin of a numbered card. But too many collectors are getting fed up with antics, gimmicks, long odds, etc. and there's a tipping point to that. Once you hit that tipping point, it all comes down... fast. And those exposed get wiped out the worse. Again, not saying that's your future. I don't wish that upon you. I'm just saying, risk mitigation and cash flow are extremely important in a business venture. Risk kills cash flow and cash flow (or lack there of) equals bankruptcy for even large companies. It decimates sole proprietorships and small LLCs.

@@1CentSportsCards completely agree. I want to do something outside of cards. It’s absolutely happening again to an extent

​@@SCVSportsCardsall of what I've said... don't let it take away from the fact you've done a lot of things right. You've had success and most never get that taste. You've pushed the negative aside (even with family) and forged forward. You should be applauded for that and feel empowered by that. Nows is when you need to get "savvy." How to build on the success in a strategic way. I belive you'll always be connected to the collectibles market but your drive for the next venture will probably he even more fruitful. Be OK with being uncomfortable. But always have risk and the mitigation of risk at your forefront of your strategy. Good luck and keep your drive to succeed in the face of opposition alive. I applaud your story so far. It's never easy. It never will be.

Thank you so much. Yeah I did was a waste of time

My man

Valencia and transferred to OFL And finished early there. Two years COC. Interesting story

Man. Sounds wild

Appreciate you thanks for the donation. Yeah I mean no one has offered but money talks and morals for everyone are flexible when it comes to money. Just a fact, nothing can stop it. But yeah it would take the right approach offer and opportunity for sure. I love the industry and want to help it so much even if it’s for free on here

Not really. I was in this industry doing fine before it boomed and I’ve turned in fine performances since it’s come down. But whatever you want to think, “luck” , all good

Your model the best I’ve ever seen with cards I tried it out it works we all need luck and breaks to make a business work that’s all I meant

Yeah for sure

Thanks so much. Have to pick the right things to focus on

Spring. Not Houston but Harris county

@@SCVSportsCards that’s Houston suburb. Same thing. Born and raised southeast side. Houston has many, many bad areas. Really sad what’s happened.

Completely agree all suckers man

None just figured it out myself

Jesus glaze a little harder

Thank you

Spring so not Houston but in Harris county

Yeah, there's some shady areas there.

Knoxville is pretty nice

Didn’t put anything down. Made money to buy it

Appreciate you

Ps.. Thank you sincerely, for your knowledge, and recognizing people 100% You are an awesome human!!!
