Active Flipping = Good Idea?
by lulu2199 24/5/2014, 3:54 pm
Sup guys,
I have some time to active flip in RS now. However, since flipping with the 4hrs limit isn't the same as flipping in the old days, does active flipping mean around 1 hour?
Furthermore, since I want to active flip, is flipping the fast items the way to go?
Thanks!

I think by definition you'd be flipping the fast items if you're active flipping 
In the past, if I remember correctly, we used to say about 30mins or less was active. Could have changed though.

I would say active flipping is waiting for the items to gradually arrive in your GE box so yes, that would mean approx 1 to 2 hours for it to be an active flip.

It ultimately depends on what you wish to do. For instance, if you'd prefer to play the game and still merch, inactive/overnight is most effective for that.
Active flipping is still a viable thing to do, and can be worthwhile. Always will be, I predict. If you haven't done it in awhile you'll be pretty rusty at it, and might not be as successful as you'd like to begin with, but stick with it. Slowly increase your margins by inching out of your comfort zone. Maybe at the same time do some short-term investments, inactive merches, and/or overnight flips.
As far as profits go, investing (short-term and long-term) is usually most profit in the end (over the course of a longer time-period, obviously), inactive/overnight yielding second highest profit and not as much time spent as investing is, and lastly active flipping. But if you get good at it, you can really excel and make heaps off any of them, depends on skill, luck, and time of day/how the market's doing.
