Hi – I’m Ty.

Hey there! I’m Ty Wilson, a full-time online reseller with a passion for storytelling, collecting, and helping others build businesses that actually work.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by the reselling grind… I’ve been there. More than once.

A few years back, I started jotting down notes under a simple header: “What I’d do differently.” That list grew fast — and so did my clarity. Those lessons became the backbone of this community… and the biggest reason my own business finally started to scale with purpose.

My Story…in depth.

I started my reselling journey over 20 years ago — flipping sports cards and random widgets to get through college. And even as life evolved, that side hustle never fully faded.

I got married. Then came our first child… and six more after that.
Reselling quietly lingered in the background, always there, always calling.

Meanwhile, I built a career in enterprise tech sales — spending 15 years traveling the country, chasing quotas, closing deals, and climbing ladders.

But deep down, I wasn’t fulfilled.

I was tired of chasing someone else’s goals. Tired of the next boss, the next big number, the next “urgent” meeting.

I wasn’t happy. And I knew something had to change.

Maturity.

Like a lot of kids, I grew up chasing cardboard.

I saved my allowance, bought packs, and stacked shoeboxes with Royals and Mizzou players.
David Robinson and Drew Bledsoe? I didn’t just admire them — I collected, traded, and made deals for them like my life depended on it.

For most people, that passion fades with age.
For me, it never left.

Then, in the early 2000s, I discovered eBay — and everything clicked.
It was the perfect collision of cards, technology, and selling.

That’s when I realized: I didn’t just love collecting.
I loved reselling.

And honestly… I guess I never matured. 😉

Today & Beyond

I never let the side hustle die.

For 20 years, I kept reselling alive — even when life was full, work was demanding, and the future felt unclear.

Twice in the past 5 years, I took the leap into full-time reselling… and in 2023, I made it permanent.

But don’t let that timeline fool you.

Over those two decades, I made plenty of mistakes.
I discovered shortcuts, built systems, formed relationships, and constantly evolved.
The journey from the early 2000s to 2025 is what gave me the foundation — and the confidence — to finally walk away from the corporate world.

When I went all-in, I didn’t just hope it would work.
I had a process. I had data. I could predict performance.
And most importantly — I knew how to maximize my time.

Since then, we’ve had multiple 7-figure revenue years, built a team to run the business, and optimized nearly every part of the reselling operation.

And now? I get to help others do the same.

MY MOST IMPORTANT WORK….

I’ve had my hand in many projects, here are the ones I’m most proud of.

Father & Husband

This is the most important accomplishment. I’ve built my entire business around supporting my wife and kids. More importantly, you can build proper schedules and goals to support your family.

Predictable eBay Business

This took years to refine the process, but we’ve completed 80,000+ transactions as a Top Rated Seller. We’ve worked hard to stand out in the crowded online marketplace and we can teach you to do the same.

Chasing Cardboard

Building a content brand is not for the faint of heart. It’s a journey and it requires next-level commitment. I don’t believe you’ll find a more reputable and liked brand in the Sports Card Market than Chasing Cardboard.

Education Content

In parallel with everything else happening, I’ve continued to put together content focused on educating a new or growing online reseller.
