  • and not ebay, looking for packs or boxes please
  • Chippy,

    Pick up your local phone book and find the nearest card shop. I'm sure the proprietor will be glad to show you some nice packs or boxes for your money.

    If you can't find a local shop check the newspaper for shows in your area and check one out.

    Best of luck and welcome aboard! image

    BBC Exchange

  • I would agree with the recommendation of Steve Hart of BBC Exchange. He is one of the best in the business for unopened packs/boxes. You should call him (his number is on his website) and ask him to put together a mystery package of baseball packs for $30. I have done that for baseball and other sports. I give him a price range and he picks out the packs. It is fun when the box arrives to see the variety. However, be careful of the shipping charges. When you factor them in to a $30 purchase, you may be better suited to buying cards locally.

    Another option is as follows: I am in the process of re-focusing my collection. One of my problems is that I love to open packs. As a result, I acculumulate a lot of cards. I could put together a mix of baseball cards from the 1950s to present for you. You can base it on a favorite team, decade, etc. If interested, send me an e-mail at dhalpen@dwl-law.com. I always like to help out collectors.
