Risk: Moderate

Sports card flipping involves buying and selling sports cards for a profit. While it can be lucrative, especially with rare cards, it carries risks. Beginners might lose money due to lack of knowledge in card valuation or market trends. Startup costs range from $100 to $500 for card purchases. Some beginners invest in cards that don't appreciate in value or struggle to find buyers, leading to losses. Online discussions mention instances of people failing to make a profit due to oversaturated markets or buying counterfeit cards.
