That’s not important. Only gross income shows the true level of hustle.

To give yet another example of gross profit meaning nothing, I just hit 11 k in gross sales this year. How much money do I have to show for it you ask? A couple hundred right now. Basically 100% of my profit goes into buying more inventory right now.

ONE DAY… this week. (this is a good average daily sales)
gross sales $2462
gross profit $1600 approx. (i am over estimating cost of inventory)
Net profit $1200-1400
Have no time to make stupid videos , guys who have time to make videos or hate on the internet are negative profits.
Hitting a wall right now. One person operation about 1year and 4 months into this . Scaling up is a whole new ball game. $1,000,000 in sales is very possible but % will lower with sealed. so debating right now.
last 14 days.

Lower end cards. No trophy or flexing cards. Most sales are under $15.
Quality condition + fast shipping and the willing to admit the masses are important not what i wish was important.

If you work 12 hours/day 7 days or 84 hours per week you’re spending anywhere from 4 1/2-16 minutes on each sale. Acquiring, listing, packing, getting the cards shipped, etc.
I have no idea if that is enough time to practically get through all of this but I’m sure someone here has enough experience to know.
$2462 average daily sales / $15 average sale =~ 164 sales per day
(12 hours * 60 minutes) / 164 sales =~ 4.4 minutes per sale
Let’s say 20 of your sales each day average $100. That would leave an average of about $15 for 25 more sales to get you to $2462 and still keep “most sales” below $15. At 45 sales/day you’re still at 16 minutes per sale working 12 hours/day every day.
If you have a bunch of bigger transactions sprinkled in there that really lower the number of transactions then I guess we need a better definition of “flexing”

thats on your calculations. Why your hating if that is your way? Maybe i am doing something that most are not?
You drive to work, Prep for work , so you are working 12 hours a day. lol Now do i actually know what you are doing ? no
You have no idea what i do.
PS: dont forget, spending hours on the internet is your work also. You need to add that to your work week hours.

Spending time posting screen shots of gross sales also contributes nothing to the fourum or your bottom line.
Nobody asked for gross sales, but we are interested in your margin

i am not interested in you and what you do. This is just a hobby that is on the edge of now becoming a business journey of mine. Go look at the other threads of current trophy and auto sales. This thread is just lower end ultra modern here. nothing interesting.

bro why are you so angry all of the time when anyone tries to understand you?
unlike you, we like to engage with threads here. ask questions. try to understand people’s passions and answer questions. it’s a forum, not a diary.
if you’re not interested in people’s thoughts on your road to 500, why post on here?
I’m just trying to understand the logic to all of this other than “i want to feel important and successful, so i need others to see what i’m doing in the most flattering way possible”
