BUYING A LARGE COLLECTION OF 1970s CARDS AT A THRIFT STORE

[@MyerheadsCards]

How can a man who buys cases of Fairfield re-packs refuse to buy 1,000,000 early 80's cards???

[@MyerheadsCards]

Ok, but would you buy cases of Fairfield re-packs or Topps High Tek?

[@itsjovo1874]

Wow that’s a lot of cards

[@thelistofjustin1356]

It's his money. Its none of our business how a man spends his money.

[@niccoarcadia4179]

I couldn't agree more. Too many hours to sort and search. At what point is it worth the labor? The cards I've found like this are always picked through anyway, the stars left behind by the original owner are usually in poor conditions.Few collectors, except beginners perhaps, want mid-late 1980s early 90s cards anymore, that's why they end up in Thrift Stores.

[@jgarrison1309]

Check out the 1974 Willie Stargell. It's at 27:11 The original owner whited out the "outfield" and wrote in "1st Base" with a pen. That's exactly what a kid my age (at the time) would have done. LOL

[@bestfriendbingbong]

Really enjoy your content. It's amazing to watch your brother and you share your love for cards.

[@waxman68cards19]

Thank you for the reminiscing! I started in 1980 collecting before collecting cards was really big. I was 12 then and man, looking at the highlights of your finds, I found myself saying "I have that one, I have that one, Mine is in better shape, I have that one" lol.

[@JesseBookout]

That’s lot of nice Football cards... that was Steve Largents Rookie

[@SirManfly]

yup i noticed that too !

[@fated1168]

Erik that was SO cool man! I have been looking for those years myself but they are not easy to find for me! That was really fun to watch you go through those cars and see all the old cards! The Rod Carew was awesome, big Carew fan. Great video!

[@aaronrichards19886]

I'm starting to truly appreciate cards from the 60s and 70s

[@carolpatton4080]

You can always give those trashy cards to big brothers and sisters, some kids will love them?

[@KingArthurBaseball]

It's been a while since a collection video. LOVE IT!

[@itsjovo1874]

KingArthur Baseball yes!!

[@ghostface3655]

As always, love the video, and thank you for posting it for us. The "Traveling" videos are always fun and informative. Thank you

[@JesseBookout]

Thank you for what you to and showing us so we can stroll down memory lane with ya!!

[@caffeinatedanddead]

Some of those, particularly the 1980 cards, look like they’re in Incredible shape

[@murrayvassar625]

Really great box of 70’s cards. Love the 1971 and 1975 cards. My son and I are One card away from finishing the 1971 set and then we are going to build the 1975 set.

[@jedlockett52]

My eyes bugged out when you showed the stack of football cards from the 1970s. There were some terrific finds in that stack! Take care of yourself and your family.

[@brunomarion7151]

After reading the title, when I saw all those cards, I tought they were all 70s cards!

[@chamichelob]

That was a pretty awesome box of vintage cards. Nice find!

[@jefferykite1683]

I bought a tub like that a few weeks ago, and found TONS of vintage football and baseball stars and Hall of Famers, though not in good shape, of course. I'm going to use them for through the mail autographs. There are several guys who sign through the mail for $5 - $10.

[@TheHaldore]

Pretty much every card in this video would make great kindling for a fire pit! Great Video! Love the actual live searching! Very entertaining! Subscribed!

[@arnolddav2337]

Wow very nice 70's cards love the all nolan Ryan's and ur two Roberto Clemente cards, if u ever decide to get rid of the football cards I collect those too, thanks for the video Jabs 😎🇺🇸

[@wento5461]

That guy did seem eager to see what was in the boxes. That musta made his job a bit easier. Feel better. Keep up the great work.

[@TheRmm1976]

They wanted $1800 for that massive mound of 80's junk cards-- LMAO! They should have taken your $200 and run with it. Would have included free haul-away by you guys!

[@briel9947]

Do you know how to get cards graded? And what type of holder I send them in

[@DallasF88]

Nice find with the Clemente’s! It’d be nice if they let you buy a couple/few of those other boxes vs the whole lot for $1800. Great vid!

[@wasteoftime1721]

Love the fact that you can chase that whole pallet. So much time to go thru but what a thrill.

[@johnaber3808]

Holy geez, I'd buy in a heartbeat if my wife wouldn't find them. No room as it is with two little ones running around. Great find, dude.

[@bigboy9706]

Awesome stuff I like watching these kind of videos

[@tonyalonzo5560]

The Walter Payton 1978 books for. $25

[@arnolddav2337]

Oh man that Walter Payton was sweet

[@itsjovo1874]

Love this

[@JesseBookout]

The Steve Largent was his rookie!!

[@GlennTheSadMarinersFan]

@@JesseBookout Thanks just saw that. I hope he didn't just throw out all of those football cards.

[@billybravesbamafan8678]

Great video! Look forward to these every day!

[@chrisweaver2634]

That is a cool bin of 70s and 80s cards you bought. Good price on the 68 Clemente league leaders card!

[@ericgerber4099]

That was fun and worth the wait. Thanks Jabs.

[@ClevelandCardConnection]

Nice pick ups!! To bad that pallet didn’t work out but you did good with this bin

[@a.d.7117]

I laughed when he said “1989 topps rack pack, that’s cool!!”

[@TheGodYouWishYouKnew]

A.D. It is cool if you remember them. Nostalgia.

[@sneakyquick]

I bought a guys collection last weeke d for 400 dollars. my whole truck was full of cards and boxes and bins. he hadx some nice pete rose cards and a griffey and montana rookie, those cards were almost worth what I paid for all of it. Im going through it watching your videos.

[@frankspicci9994]

Hey Erik, Some decent cards I seen in the Football lot are the 77 Largent is a Rookie (Last time I looked it up, it Booked for $50), The 77 Lynn Swann is his Last Card from his Playing Days (Due to a Dispute with Topps I believe) That books for $25 last I checked. and the 78 Walter Payton is $20-$25 I think. Of course there Mid Grade but anyways, You have an idea. The rest of the Football are in the $2-$5 range Roughly. 57 Herzog is a HOF Rookie. George Kell, Great TTM Grapher up until he passed. The 2 old Team Cards are from the 1957 Topps set.

[@TheAPWA]

Nice finds in that box of 70s cards, especially the Lou Brocks!

[@Thatoneguyy70]

U missed a ton of rookies football

[@heathcorlew2294]

Nice pickup with the older cards, to bad that huge bundle didn't have all older cards!!!

[@902SportsCards]

Was there any 77 topps blue jays cards?

[@TheToso13]

That’s a fun bunch of cards, nice! Would like to have seen the rest showing on the screen!

[@dannyk8825]

Where is this store at i am very interested in buying all the cards

[@garciastites8444]

Love you videos I always watch them as soon as they come out keep up the good work

[@scottsavinski9311]

Always fun going through 70's & 80's cards..

[@philinthablanxify]

That's a lot of cards! The hunt is always fun but I've noticed most big collections like that have already been picked through.

[@LJsClubhouse]

Love those Munson cards, I've been toying with PC'ing him for some time...right after I finish my Jeter PC!

[@beastmoderips3644]

Amazing video!!! That is awesome you got all that once again great video

[@destro13cobra68]

That was a great score for 22 bucks! Great allstars and notables in alright condition. As a starter in 70s collecting that is a great surprise!

[@dmm5159]

I just got a Billy Ripken 89 Fleer black box for 40 cents. Good deal?

[@b-man1232]

I went to our local thrift store the other day. I'm the "local Financial Advisor"....so, I avoid the store (possible clients seeing me at a thrift store?). Anyway, I was blown away by the amazing items that I found for little to no money! I found a number of Nike Polo type shirts that still had the price tags on them, they were selling for $0.99 each ! You're talking about shirts that run $30 - $60 new!! I also found a number of vintage items 4 ridiculously low prices! I've come to the general conclusion, we live in the most wasteful country on planet Earth ! People often buy things, or receive gifts, and never ever use the item ! Instead of trying to sell it on eBay or even a garage sale, they just simply donate it to be done with it. Needless to say, I will be going to that thrift store a lot more often!

[@JerkyJones100]

Most people shopping at thrift stores don't have financial advisors. But that being said if you're an advisor worth anything then you'd know thrift stores are a good place TO SAVE MONEYYYY! And if any potential customers saw you they'd probably think "this guy likes to save money, he'd make a good financial advisor. I'm choosing him." Just a question are you under the age of $25?

[@b-man1232]

@@JerkyJones100- no, I'm in my forties. Our thrift store has volunteers...there's a few of those ladies that are very good clients (have a lot of $$ with me). Yes, I've reached a point where I kinda don't care. I love saving money on items that I use or wear all the time!!

[@Hungryman97sCollectibles]

$200 was a fair offer. Go ahead and assume the Henderson rookies were all picked out.

[@scottsmyers5377]

Cool video and love the box of 70s cards

[@BRC36027]

The team cards that are beat up are from 1957 topps. 27:13

[@tstuff]

I was on a flight with Goose recently but did not realize it until I was at the bag pickup. He must have been heading to the Hall of Fame for some event during the induction weekend. I had been at an Oakland game while traveling out west and had an A's ball. Unfortunately his bag came and he left before my bag arrived on the belt. Such is the case with so many things. Several years ago I was picking my nephew up at the airport and Wade Boggs walked past me while I was looking for my nephew. You never know who you'll see at the airport.

[@fishdogsandotherpets6839]

Why did he leave the 90s ronald acunas rookie is in there and 1990 upper deck

[@oldaccount6297]

23:10 what the heck are you talking about erik??? We all know that Mario Mendoza is the best card out of all of them lol... he got a LINE named after him! jk good vid

That trip looked like it was a tiring experience. But you did check it out. Thanks

[@view247flix]

A diamond find of the 1968 Roberto Clemente '67 Batting Leaders in an otherwise cowpie of a bag with banged up football and hockey. That was a motherload of boxed cards but seemed high priced at $1800. I like the bin of cards but cringe when people use rubber bands to bind them.

[@johnaber3808]

You could send them to your Patreons!! I certainly would not complain!

Awesome buy on that tub dude!! That '76 Brett is tuff to find in good condition. Carlton traded from '72 is sweet also.

[@jgarrison1309]

These are what baseball cards are supposed to look like 23:19 flipped through, looked through, played with, traded three times with your buddies. Well worn. Mine look like this.

[@dmm5159]

That's so many cards. Must've taken forever to go through. I was looking through a 10 cents box at a store recently and somehow like an hour and a half had gone by

[@mitchelltau472]

That tub of janky cards was well worth the $22! Lots of HOFers, both baseball & football, I would have loved to find that on a hunt. Way to keep your eyes wide open. Thanks for posting.

[@rockfilipowicz5349]

If I saw that collection in person I would be drooling over the counter

[@niccoarcadia4179]

Old timer here,..I'm so tired of the overproduced years, most commons, & damaged, banged corners, edge wear, and creased cards that one day I'm just going to purge my whole collection down to mint stars & sets only (on the 1975 & up cards). One day when you walk into the thrift store by me you'll see a whole isle of my rejects and I guarantee you'll not find one card worth more than 5 bucks, but lots of them will have book prices of !0, $20, $50.00 or more. Too many people don't understand that in today's "mint only" market that the big buyers, the hard cash paying collector no longer wants a damaged card in his collection anymore. Many will not even look at a 1986 to 1993 unopened box, at any price over 5 bucks each. The 1980s brought me into collecting, the 1990s amazed me with the clever inserts, the 2000s awed me with Relics and Signed cards and the 2010s taught me the value of PSA 10 graded vs non graded nrmt. The money is in graded cards kids. Don't bother with the rest. Except complete sets from the pre 1980 era,

[@KingArthurBaseball]

[@hallbags7444]

Thrift stores in Australia are call op shops(opportunity shops). I definitely haven't found a pallet of cards in them though. Not worth the money they are asking, but cool to see anyway. At least the trip wasn't a total bust.
