THE FLYOVER HEAT WEEKLY

Sep 11 – Sep 18, 2026

Hi — my name is Eric, otherwise known as TigerHawk-515, owner of this little card shop called Flyover Heat.

For those who haven't read my About section: I got back into the hobby about a year ago and found it tough to manage a family and an inventory at the same time. So I started building a spreadsheet to give some time back to my wife and kids. That turned into a little A.I. automation, and from there into full automation, built on eBay's own developer platform and through their compliance review.

It did not come without several self-inflicted injuries along the way. But through those lessons I've built something for the hobby, and for you — meant to protect your investment and run it efficiently. I can't guarantee you'll make money (that tends to be a bonus). What I can promise is a return more valuable than gold: your time. Time with friends, family, your customers, your business. Yourself.

I'm giving you all first crack at it, because I value your business and your opinion.

And you should know this: if you've done business with me, it's likely that most of what you saw was run by DropZoneCards.com A.I. — every reprice, every promotion, every offer sent, declined or accepted, and this newsletter you're reading. What was never automated is the part that matters: if you and I have talked, that was me, and I still answer every message personally and immediately.

I know that might be a turn-off for some, and others might love it. Either way I want to thank you personally for your business and for taking the time to look at this.

I'm excited about what it could do to make this hobby a little more manageable — maybe a lot. My hope is to keep doing business with you, so get back to me.

On your time, of course.

— Eric

Sports card market intelligence from the Flyover Heat store — hot players, market-moving injuries, accolades, trades, and what's selling.

Every card you see here was photographed, identified, priced against live market comps and listed by Drop Zone Cards, our own card automation — the same system reads the week's sports news to build this newsletter. If you sell cards yourself and the listing grind is what's stopping you scaling, that's exactly what we built it for.
