Anyone Collect Sports Cards?

I think a lot of new folks are in it for money and not collecting.
I agree. Talking to some shop owners, they've been getting calls from folks they've never seen wanting to buy cases of Chrome or Sterling. Sheesh.

I enjoy set building, though. It's fun.
 
The itch is so bad I might cop these

Found some more gems after digging to the very back of the storage closet... will probably send for grading as well...

Me and my brother used to collect cards from like 9 - 12. We are both in our mid 30s and have some cards at our parents house. I'm hoping we can hit a lick while the market is hot. I have not looked at those cards in at least 17 years.
 
Forgot to post this gem...got it for $200 shipped before they blew. Glad I grabbed it when I did.

Side note: I’m done with purchasing basketball for at least a few months. I think everyone’s prices are way too inflated right now. I’ve been focusing my attention over to Football. And in particular 2012 Prizm. Brady’s 2012 Prizm already goes for a pretty penny. I’ve been scooping up tons of Brees, Manning, Julio, Big Ben, Rodgers I can get my hands on.

Once basketball season is over I’m guessing the hoops crowd will
Migrate to football for their fix and will gravitate to what they know best.

For having a STUPID crazy itch, surprisingly, I still haven't touched my stockpile. I let my 2 sons and my daughter rip a fat pack though. Pulled a Zion and Ja base.

I have been buying a ton of Chronicles singles on ebay. Complete buyers market right now

all for the low - XR Red /149, Hometown Heroes silver and Crusade silver ($50 total)

nice haul.

Your reps stocking them and they come in wrapped up like that? I gotta wait like 20-30 mins while they stock/tag/take pics and hope no one joins me lol.

Do you have a deal in place with yours or do they just tell you when to expect them?

Same procedure as you. I waited 10 minutes for them to stock the shelf.
