Coles The Sports Card Collectors Club: Vol 2 - The Flip Life at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON

In The Sports Card Collectors Club, Vol. 1 , I approached the hobby as an investor. I used the lens of my 25-year career in financial advising to treat sports cards like assets. I wrote about market cycles, scarcity, pricing inefficiencies, and how private equity firms might structure portfolios around collectibles. I put my own money behind those ideas and learned a great deal from the results. But this book is something different.
Vol. 2 is the story of how the hobby transformed from a personal passion into a direct marketing engine for my publishing company. It's about how I used eBay envelopes as Trojan Horses, slipping flyers for my book series into shipments and discovering an audience of readers who were already primed for stories about baseball gods, fictional leagues, and the sacredness of sport. That shift, from investor to storyteller, from collector to connector, is what defines this book.
Along the way, you'll find box breaks, market observations, and personal stories. This isn't a step-by-step guide, and it isn't just a memoir. It's a blueprint for anyone trying to turn what they love into something bigger. If Vol. 1 was about investing in cards, Vol. 2 is about investing in yourself. This is The Flip Life .
