Buy/Sell/Trade Forum

Did you find what you was looking for? 

Did you find something really cool?

Did you just end up buying all kinds of stuff?

Went to the Philly show. My son traded his 2022 Heritage J-Rod Black Chrome for a Scherzer rookie SGC 9.5 and a Trea Turner 1st bowman PSA 10 and 600 cash. Got tons of Nats cards for the PC. Picked up approximately 770 cards at .05 cents each. Most are rookies and inserts. Tons of base Dustin May’s if anybody is interested.

I love nickel boxes.

The London UK card show was last weekend which, unfortunately, I was unable to attend. However during this past week I was able to visit the great people at Sports Trading Cards UK - it was a real treat for me! Hobby/Retail sport/non-sport boxes/packs/singles

 Needed to spend more time to properly take it all in but I had to get back to Central London for something. 

Came away with some baseball and hockey products together with some kind freebies 🙂

Went to the small local show here (it was advertised inthe show calendar and I even marked that I was attending). Walked in with less than $20 in small bills and walked out with some left and about 30-40 cards (some for me and some for 3 of my close trading pals). No nickel boxes. But enough 10 for $1, 50 cent, and $1 boxes to keep things fun.

NO

Went to a local show, which was about half the size (in dealers) that it usually is.  Did find some 12/$1 and 5/$1 boxes. Spent $4 on three cards, $5 on another 40, then bought a couple binders. Headed to the LCS near the show and found a bunch of 1970’s cards of Hall of Famers.  Between the $1 cards and the $.25 cards (and the discount from the owner) I spent $18 on 40 cards.  Overall a successful day for me and my secret Santa recipient. 

Get jealous every time I see these reports of nickel and dime boxes.

I assume it is down to higher prices in the Canadian market, but round these parts even finding a dollar box is rare these days. $2 boxes seem to be the entry point.

One dealer who I've bought longterm from sells to me for a dime, but his box isn't marked as such, but the downside to that is his inventory only has so much refresh.

There is a show here this weekend but I'm to sick to go to it.

I love the 33 cards for $1 box the best but those are few and far between. There is one show that has penny boxes.
