Most of us do it because we love the machines, not because we make any money at it. Very few of my flips have actually been profitable if you count the amount of time it takes to do a good job of cleaning, adjusting, testing, and figuring in the cost of replacement parts, etc. I give away as many machines as I flip, just to keep the machines being used and loved rather than sitting here, and getting them out of my house makes room for more to come home with me.
