Very informative. Thanks. Lots of stuff I didn't realize

[@SportsCardCollectorChronicles]

Thanks. I'm just trying to help. Some agree some don't, but if it helps some, it is worth it.

[@ThoseBackPages]

That hoodie in the background is EPIC!

[@SportsCardCollectorChronicles]

Haha. Thanks...so folks get it, and some don't. Sounds like you do. Haha. It is a conversation piece for sure.

[@PickSixCards]

So pumped

[@SportsCardCollectorChronicles]

Yeah buddy

[@The047SportsTCGCards]

Gotta have your PLAN mapped out clearly just like any other trip you would take. I think it's where you go for your grail cards tbh.

[@SportsCardCollectorChronicles]

Makes sense to me!

[@NofavsCollecting]

Are you going to be doing any trading or purchasing while you were there? If so please reply, I've been collecting since 1986 and recently shut down my card store in 2020 when I found out I had cancer. Anyways that don't have nothing to do with it my wife and I are trying to lick with a quite a bit of our collection and we are going to the National with VIP access. And I basically want to unload like boxes of three or four hundred cards that are all ESPYs and rookies and inserts. 41 good valued card. As far as making our collection smaller. What do you suggest as my best tactic.

[@NofavsCollecting]

Liquidate. Not lick*****😅

[@SportsCardCollectorChronicles]

Haha

[@SportsCardCollectorChronicles]

I am always trading and buying, but....I have tons of low - to mid end singles, so I'm not really going for that... you can move that stuff at the national but most will not be looking foe that. You might find a dealer willing to take it but if it bulk stuff you can expect to get 25-35 percent.. at least that is what I have seen... it is a tough call to say how to pull it off. I would say persistence and just go dealer to dealer .... or a crazy idea would be to sir in the lobby in a cair with a sign that days "buy it all".. or something. Let me think on it some more.

[@NofavsCollecting]

@@SportsCardCollectorChronicles thanks very much for your reply, I do appreciate it. I'm more of a vintage guy and started getting more into the more modern stuff around 2015. So I have tons and tons of stuff anyways. At least like to hopefully get a chance to meet you over there. It'll be me and my wife were cardboard King 80 and cardboard king 95. Plus we own no faves collecting

[@SportsCardCollectorChronicles]

@NofavsCollecting not a problem.. I will definitely be there strolling around etc. I will keep an eye out

[@PickSixCards]

What up

[@SportsCardCollectorChronicles]

Whats going on my friend?

[@garyi8608]

Can't hear you on here.

[@SportsCardCollectorChronicles]

Audio was a little low on this one. Normally I set to volume level so 20 and my videos are nice and loud. This one needs to be turned up a little bit more. My appologies.
