someone is running an experiment they are calling a Penny to Infinity through COMC. Should be fun to at least watch

I went through my COMC history and retroactively applied the Penny to Infinity concept, starting with my first successful penny flip on August 2, 2013 (which sold the same day for 6 cents).

So far I've parlayed the penny into $58,465.21 in 137,878 trades. This is cherry-picking the fastest selling flips which could have been purchased with the amount of credit received, after the items sold.

I won't post the whole thing here, but here's a sample of the first 100 transactions or so:

In the interest of science, I also calculated my worst run from 1 cent to $50.

For this calculation, I allowed trades to overlap. I didn't require a purchase be funded by a sale which had already been made. So, if I bought a card for 1 cent in 2019 and sold it one year later for 2 cents, that counted as +.01 in 365 days. If I bought another card for 2 cents in 2017 and sold it one year later for 3 cents, that counted as +.01 in 365 days.

I ran the numbers two ways - one with losses and break-even trades, and one with only gains.

With losses, it took 12,167 flips a total of 14,252,297.7 days (about 39,047 years) for a "single card port" to go from 1 cent to $50.

Without losses or break-evens, it took 1,088 flips a total of 1,695,202 days (about 4,546 years) for a "single card port" to go from 1 cent to $50.

The least profitable successful flip:

84407699 Football 2005 Ultimate Collection - [Base] 123 LeRon McCoy #135/235

Paid: 37 cents in May, 2013
Sold: 39 cents in Feb, 2021

You got: 37.05 cents

Net profit: 1/20 of one cent in approximately 7.77 years

Completed my first flip today so I'll call it a success.

2020 Bowman - Chrome Prospects - Jeremy Pena (x2) bought for $4 received $4.36 for .72 profit. It's not much but it's honest work, I tell ya.

Nothing big but a few decent early season warmth flips

If I bought another card for 2 cents in 2017 and sold it one year later for 3 cents, that counted as +.01 in 365 days.

I ran the numbers two ways - one with losses and break-even trades, and one with only gains.

With losses, it took 12,167 flips a total of 14,252,297.7 days (about 39,047 years) for a "single card port" to go from 1 cent to $50.

Without losses or break-evens, it took 1,088 flips a total of 1,695,202 days (about 4,546 years) for a "single card port" to go from 1 cent to $50.

The least profitable successful flip:

84407699 Football 2005 Ultimate Collection - [Base] 123 LeRon McCoy #135/235

Paid: 37 cents in May, 2013
Sold: 39 cents in Feb, 2021

You got: 37.05 cents

Net profit: 1/20 of one cent in approximately 7.77 years
I got you beat, percentage wise...

2017 Topps - [Base] #287.1
Aaron Judge (Fielding)
Sold on 4/27/2022. You got
$7.00! Bought for $7.00

$7.0015, that's a profit of 2 hundredths of a percent!

As mjohnatgt often implies, some of the best flips come from obscure corners of relatively unknown sets that nevertheless contain cards that it is predictable that someone will eventually want. Case in point:

2019 Topps Archives - Ichiro Retrospective #I-16
SP - Ichiro Suzuki [edit] [share]
Bought: $1.10 1/26/2022
Sold: $14.74 5/14/2020
COMC Cred: $14.00

In quick flips this week, I didn't realize the Detmers no-hitter was in progress until after he had the first out in the 9th. But was still able to make a few nice gains before prices peaked:

2020 Bowman Draft - [Base] - Purple Border #BD-41
Reid Detmers #217/250 [edit] [share]
Bought: $6.53 5/10/2022
Sold: $14.74 5/12/2020
COMC Cred: $14.00

2020 Bowman Draft - [Base] - Purple Border #BD-41
Reid Detmers #161/250 [edit] [share]
Bought: $6.67 5/10/2022
Sold: $14.01 5/10/2020
COMC Cred: $13.30

2020 Bowman Chrome Draft Sapphire Edition - [Base] #BD-41
Reid Detmers [edit] [share]
Bought: $9.74 5/10/2022
Sold: $22.74 5/10/2020
COMC Cred: $21.60

All in all in the limited time I had before the risk of buying further seemed too high:
18 cards bought for $45.67.

Of which:
12 cards sold for COMC credit of 66.22
6 cards remaining that if they sell at current lowest price on site (probably slightly optimistic) would net COMC credit of $19.49.

I'm sure there are some here who did much better buying earlier, but since roughly half these cards were bought after the no-hitter was complete I thought it was an interesting illustration that it is still possible to make money at that point if you are careful about what you are buying.

Found all sorts of cards I bought for $1-5, sold for $3-8, and now are worth $50-150, lol.
Time for a thread bump. How did this comment age? Looks like the basketball market crashed. And has anyone looked at 1993 SP Jeter graded prices lately?

I think the market has probably recovered. I'll still pay $1 for a lot of those Kobe, LeBron, Tatis and Mahomes cards.
