Raiding the Burbank Sports Cards Shop Bargain Boxes!

[@charlesanderson6461]

I love that you look at the aesthetic value of a card. If something is cool looking, you immediately take pause, put it aside to look it up. I find this way of looking at cards extremely valuable as a card hunter. I am an artist & love dollar boxes. I routinely find $20 cards in $1 boxes just by looking at the aesthetic value of a card & looking it up. Good stuff as always.

[@americanarbitragecards]

Aesthetic is important, especially with lower end cards….I sold a card of a fairly obscure player a couple weekends, just because he was in a ball pit in the picture, I just thought it was interesting and unique

[@johnnygamecock1249]

Easton Stick $9, Tony Gonzalez, HOF Rookie, $3, that contrast made me laugh!

[@americanarbitragecards]

It is a fascinating contrast…it shows accolades often hold less value long term than, than “potential”accolades hold short term

[@Online_Sports_Talk]

You have inspired me to pursue reselling sports cards. Thank you for helping me start my own journey.

[@americanarbitragecards]

You’re welcome! Here to help if I can, if you need anything.

[@Randrew15]

WVU cards are always a good buy because you are right, they are like the pro team for the state and the fan base is very passionate about their players. Let’s Go Mountaineers!

[@americanarbitragecards]

Go mountaineers!

[@FANO562]

awesome stuff and I agree it is very theraputic sorting cards. I was at Burbank the week before just missed you hopefully next time I see you.

[@americanarbitragecards]

Hope to see ya next time!

[@TZPACKS]

You have single handedly pushed me to start my journey in flipping via arbitrage and eBay just start prospecting Corbin carroll elly de la Cruz and Luis matos 📈🙏🏾

[@americanarbitragecards]

Let’s go! I’m so happy to hear this :) Good luck 🍀

[@gargantuangoose24]

Buying at the peak of all those players… love to see it!

[@slymancollector4157]

Nice finds! Loving these bargain bin videos.

[@americanarbitragecards]

Thanks! Glad you dig it :)

[@the_chandler]

Ayyy my local card shop. So much good stuff in those dollar boxes.

[@the_chandler]

And another BIG Ayyy...I went to WVU and the last time I was in that shop, I picked up a Jarrett Brown auto from one of those boxes. Hell of a coincidence.

[@americanarbitragecards]

That is a Wild coincidence! What a great shop to be your LCS…I definitely plan on going at least monthly :)

[@claytonclifford2323]

Keep the value boxing content comin! Great stuff

[@americanarbitragecards]

Will do 🫡

[@nickreese895]

That James Stewart is the one from Miami not Tennessee/Jags and he played for Vikings one year. Good put back!

[@jeremysimpson2471]

Finally found a shop with bargain bins. Found some sweet cards. Thanks for your vids and advice

[@americanarbitragecards]

Let’s go! Congrats :)

[@bill40bates]

I always buy Eric Davis rookies when I see them in the bargain bins!

[@magshop-us]

New sub here! Thanks for the video! I'm in Oregon and hoping to visit Burbank shop in the near future!

[@americanarbitragecards]

Thanks for the Sub! Definitely worth a stop when you’re in SoCal

[@markthompson7503]

MECCA!!!!! I have found so many good deals there!

[@americanarbitragecards]

Agreed…deals for days

[@eddiecarrion6176]

Lots of cool cards you picked up Cary..I love any acetate or suspended animation cards 😬 also I like that Felix Jones you got 👀🔥

[@americanarbitragecards]

The Felix card is dope for sure

[@evantanaka9444]

Like always great content. Once I can get to some shows I got some Stackhouse’s inserts for your PC.

[@americanarbitragecards]

Dope! I really do appreciate that :)

[@gradedcards5516]

drive 8 hours, only stay a few hours, to go thru bargain boxes? Not too many people that dedicated -- or you really just enjoy driving :)

[@americanarbitragecards]

I had a couple other things I wanted/needed to do in Cali :) The card shop was a major reason for the trip though

[@dinoferraro7599]

Love the videos, as a collector I can totally relate to the nostalgia aspect.

[@americanarbitragecards]

Glad you do! I really connect to that aspect, and I really just flip ( I just recently started some fun pcs) as I was going through these boxes…I had the thought to buy A LOT more for myself than usual, they were fun boxes

[@torch3316]

Sometimes look at the cheapest 1 to purchase instead of sold. Lowest priced Trubisky Optic rc is $2

[@americanarbitragecards]

Good point…i still think I could get more than the lowest copy available on eBay…other recently have gotten the amount shown. These boxes, I took a few chances…so I may end up at the $2 on that one :)

[@HuddleCardCollection]

Burbank looks like a cool store.

[@americanarbitragecards]

It’s amazing!

[@RafaelLievanos]

How do ship your cards seen in your video you only charge 1.08 for shipping..do you in white envelope?

[@americanarbitragecards]

I ship for .60 with tracking. It’s eBay standard envelope, just a card, toploader and an envelope

[@RafaelLievanos]

That’s a eBay option? What’s a toplader big fan wanna get into what you’re into.

[@tradingcardboss]

We really don’t have any card shops much in the UK 😢

[@americanarbitragecards]

I wish you all did!

[@KH-vv5dq]

Jealous of you here! I'd love to sit there for a day hunting the parallels I need to complete some older sets. I'd also grab a lot of the local favorites for my area, TAMU, UTA, Houston, Dallas players.

[@bradmccubbin1569]

Thank you!

[@locly5189]

I wish all my sport card shops in longview are like this. Too bad they all marked up there price past eBay comps.

[@americanarbitragecards]

The worst! You can finds some wild deals on eBay, whatnot and COMC :)

[@jsr4942]

Do you have any videos up helping others sell tips tricks etc just started back and have some listing but need some help?

[@_sport_shorts]

The bargain box mecca!

[@americanarbitragecards]

Truly!

[@Online_Sports_Talk]

Do you ever struggle with liking players and have to convince yourself not to buy them because the card just isn't worth it even though that player was great and the card is cool? That has been my biggest hurdle so far.

[@americanarbitragecards]

I do :) and honestly sometimes I buy the card anyway. Thankfully with bargain boxes i can do that and enjoy the card find and move it on to someone who equally enjoys it :)

[@sportscardcollector5985]

What’s lowest profit you look at making taking away fees ?

[@americanarbitragecards]

Honestly I don’t have set rules…I’ve sold stuff just because I liked it…and lost money ( obviously very rarely…but I love cards)

[@americanarbitragecards]

In general…double or more is what I want :)

[@Online_Sports_Talk]

By the way I will buy that Jake Ryan off you!

[@americanarbitragecards]

Dm me on insta :)

[@angelcolon8755]

$ digging tomorrow thanks

[@americanarbitragecards]

Good luck 🍀

[@robthomas7690]

The Vegas 50 cent boxes were better than those.

[@americanarbitragecards]

This time yes :) unfortunately those boxes are $1 now…but still a great deal

[@robthomas7690]

I love the Vegas box videos and the Justin gamble gamble boxes

[@FCB_818]

Quality Content 🔥✨✌️

[@americanarbitragecards]

Thanks!

[@torch3316]

These boxes should be quarter boxes not dollar boxes lots of junk

[@americanarbitragecards]

I would’ve preferred that ;) always

[@jarredjohnson1226]

LOL
