I'm watching a Youtube channel called Part Time Pickers and this guy is hitting up a garage sale with a decent amount of cards. The episode is "Don't do this at garage sales" and I'm sure most people here would enjoy finding a garage sale like this and going thru what they have. Nothing real rare but still fun to watch.

you guys are finding cards at yard sales? the last yardsales i found cards at.  i scored a shoebox of 1989 topps/bowman for $5. he had lots of other junk wax shoeboxes. And  another guy was just scalping blasters from retail...very disappointing. A few others were selling singles from their "book" but were usually overpriced and they werent willing to haggle. i think i also got a few starting linups still in box but otherwise disappointing when i look back at my summer.

what other resources do you use to find yard sales?  I remember i used to look in my local newspaper but who reads those anymore?

facebook marketplace usually has listings but it's so hard to filter through them.

 btw  i'm trying to build the 89 bowman set. 

I doubt I've done much garage saleing the past few years and usually all I see is over priced junk era stuff.  I have seen facebook groups for yard sales but haven't checked them out. You can also probably find your local newspaper listings online. 

Some of us got luck in the Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, Kijiji online classifieds and in the garage, yard and estate sales, but all I found here is also way overpriced junk wax and wannabe dealers. Early birds get the worms, but I guess some areas are better than others.

whenever i have a yard sale i always drop a couple boxes of cards on my sports table.  Usually a box of commons and other stuff and a box of a little higher priced stuff.  Sometimes the sell and sometimes they don't, and sometimes nobody even looks at them.  Been putting some of the cards in sale/trade list, so if you trade with me and get a card with a price sticker on the sleeve, that's where it came from.
