A Vintage Baseball Focus Corrupted by Kobe & MJ
As most of you know, I sold my massive card collection the summer of 2023 and accidentally started over with a focus on vintage baseball. I had very little intentions to do this, but when smelly old shoe boxes of 50’s baseball look you in the face you can’t help yourself.
Anyways, that has been my focus 95% of the time until MJ, Kobe, Iverson and their friends wanted to test me again…lol
My Leads, the same you get but for me locally had a promising lot of 2 large tubs filled with late 90’s basketball. Wow, what a lot of fun this one has been. Yeah some of them didn’t make it home that were suppose to be in there, but plenty of others. I don’t even know the amount of Kobe cards, its crazy!
I share my stories to inspire you, they do still exist. It’s all a numbers game! Keep hunting and you will find them. You can find stuff just like this from my leads and other ways of hunting them down. Here’s a peak below. 🤩

YouTube - Sports Card Investor this channel is great, more focused on the current hype in the game but still a great channel with top quality hobby info to stay current.
YouTube - Junk Wax Investor here you can learn about the valuable cards that lay in those junk wax stacks or boxes. This channel talks all about the good stuff from the junk wax times. Yes, junk wax still have some value….
YouTube - Chasing Cardboard if like the chase/hunt for sports cards then you will enjoy this show. Its one of my favorite shows, not only because I was going to create the same thing almost, but because its just fun. I was so close to doing this, but couldn’t miss my family. It’s like American Pickers but for sports cards.
eBay - CountryCards here is my eBay store, nothing to exciting but you will see either way, just in case you want to know what I have for sale or connect.
Auction Company - Gem-Mint Auctions Great cards, Great prices. Don’t want to miss out on this site/app. It’s always good to have options with collecting.
SGC Grading - This is my preferred company to Grade Cards as you will come to see in my images that I share. They might not pull the same premium as some others, but I sure do like them.
PSA Grading - As you know, this is another highly recommended way to Grade Cards. The PSA slab is slightly smaller and thinner than SGC, and with different colors.
As you know, I buy collections all the time. So if you have a card collection you are looking to sell, please reach out to me either by replying to this email, or emailing me at [email protected] or sending me a DM on TikTok, and I would be happy to take a look.
Collections Leads For You
Here’s how this works. I run special advertising all over the USA, specifically looking for card collections. I get some basic collection info from sellers and a email in order to connect you. I try to filter the junk out as much as possible and to be completely transparent it’s possible I have interest in some of the stuff that comes up. Realistically though, I can’t buy them all and I usually like to buy stuff that is local anyways. I try to stay within a 6-8 hour radius of my location at most in Eastern Iowa. I get good leads everywhere from NY-CA!
