  • I went to a yard sale in the mountains yesterday morning and came home with a collection of sports cards ranging from the 1970s-early 2000's. I was pretty surprised with the cards I found!

      U don't want to get sucked into the junkwax addiction, you will eventually fill your lovely home with ugly pictures of washed up ball players eventually you might get buried alive in Chris Sabo rc cards

    That was a lot of cards for $80. What a great deal and always a lot of fun to sort through. I love the Nolan Ryan cards! He is my favorite player, always the card I am looking for. Thanks for sharing the collection.

    • @morelews5290
      @morelews5290 Před 2 lety

      That is considering the condition of these cards too because they look pretty rough but if you don’t buy the lots you don’t find the gems I’d say best card in the whole lot worth maybe 6 bucks

  • @SammyThunder
    @SammyThunder Před 2 lety +1

    Looks like a decent pickup. My biggest concern at buying up huge lots like these is storage and personal preference in collecting. I'm not sure what your storage situation looks like, but you seem to have a way to move these cards without issue. Of course, I love the vintage stuff. The 70s and some 60s baseball were my favorite from your pickup.

    That Upper Deck set was a Mc Donald's set that you. The Upper Deck logo is the shape of the Mc Donald's Gold Arches. You could have gotten them at the time from Mc D's. My step father worked at Mc D's at that time and brought me the cards, so I had the complete set. And you can buy the complete set as well, Upper Deck did do a factory set for them.

    If that's what I think, the pro set soccer packs are English League and you can get a card of Vinnie Jones who played in the league and later went on to act in, among other movies, Snatch and Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels.

Had montana rookie, monk rookie,ozzie Newsome rookie, many 2nd , 3rd ,4th year cards of pistol pete, dr.j, robert Parrish, tiny Nate Archibald rookie and a walter Payton rookie. Paid pennies a piece for each card. 2nd best ballcard find of my life besides a jordan collection I paid $60.00 for and had almost 800 Jordan's! 88 fleet, tons of 90s inserts, finestrefractory, I couldn't believe it. Good buy though some nice cards.,

I can't tell you how many people come to us with a billion 1990 to 1993 Ken Griffey Jrs. and think they have something. Worth zippo. About five cards from '90 to '93 worth anything.
