Anybody been? Any vintage?

Been there many times, just to buy boxes of Heritage or supplies.

There are a handful of vintage dealers, mostly ungraded stuff of medium quality. There are probably some hidden gems if you care to search hard enough. They seem to have the same cards month after month.

Many other types of collectibles dealers are there.

MARAYA---but don't plan on any discounts or bargains

Phil--cool guy same stuff in case for the last 10 years-=--overpriced ex/ex/mt stuff

WEBER---(PSA) if he even sets up there anymore----too busy with NAXCOM...

Place ahs been a dead zone for years for vintage stuff...

If they are related to Sanford and Sons then probably some good deals there. Might be a bit junky but otherwise good.

Frank & Sons Show is every Wednesday and Saturday in the City of Industry ... located in Southern California.

P.S. Carew29 is right ... Place is dead for vintage.

Thanks for the link and info...i am in San DIego, and I knew from previous posts it was somewhere in LA County, and have been wanting to check it out one of these days......anyway, thanks...I think if I tell my wife I will take her to PINKS, she will let me go...she is always up for a cruise....

I didn't realize it was twice every week...still a good show when it is that frequent??

Frank & Son is great. You can get wax as cheap (if not cheaper) than eBay but not pay any shipping. Russ - the Beckett guy - is awesome. I got started with card grading because he takes submissions live every Saturday on 10 and 20 day service. Now I only use him for modern stuff but he helped me grade my whole 61 fleer basketball set. There are a couple dealers with nice raw vintage and a couple guys who would be great to use as help for you vintage raw sets becaus ethey have a ton of Ex-Ex-Mt raw vintage commons. Highly recommended.

Does PSA ever go there and accept submissions? I have a Manny bat and would love to save the shipping...

Every couple of months - but I know they'll be at Hall of Fame Sports in San Dimas at the end of June - but why not just go to the CU Public Friday some week? They accept submissions at their offices on Fridays during certain hours. It's way closer to San Diego.

Thanks for all the info...do you have a link on this "public friday"? I can see myself going to a show, plus saving the shipping on a bat, but doubt i would drive very far just to go to their office to save shipping...Shows are always fun....what goes on at these "public fridays"?

PSA Schedule

Just click on the Public Friday - it's not a show - you just drop stuff off in their lobby as far as I know. This is for PSA, PSADNA and coins I think

Yea, not really worth a drive just to drop off (at least in my case), but thanks for the info all the same...I may wait until the San Dimas show...I used to live there. A show is always worth a drive, and if i can drop off PSA items, all the better...thanks again!

VitoCo1972 · May 23, 2008 2:52PM

San Dimas isn't a show either. HOF Sports is just a small memorabilia store. You may as well wait for the next Hollywood Park big show. The board usually starts a thread about it. My guess is August
