Shoe Box Collecting Revisited??? AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

[Brads55]

So I get a message from Amanda (FlashyCheeseButtons) yesterday saying she's at work and has a co-worker there that has some cards that he used to collect and wants to know if there is anything decent there. I tell her to go ahead and bring home what he has and I'd be happy to look through his stuff and put his better cards in protection. Little did I know that I was about to be walking into a flashback from hell!

The Collectors Nightmare....



Hyep, every single card tossed one a top another, without sleeves, randomly tossed and rolling around in an old sneaker box! Well 2 old sneaker boxes mind you.

When all was said and done he ended up having a few nice rookies in the mix. But overall....

He's going to be bringing her a couple more boxes like that I believe

So all of them the 5 cent to 10 cent common cards from late 80s and early 90s. You never know, you may find a Fleer Jordan, Barkley, Malone, or Dominique RC in one of them.

Those are at least $1 to $3 each for most of those cards.

At least you got an Elton Brand Auto.

Ahhhhh come on haterade! I would have figured the Emmitt could be $10? $15? A couple of them Jason Kidd RCs to be $6? $8? That FB auto to be $5? $8?

And lmfao, that Elton Brand isn't an auto. Its a parallel of the base rookie I believe. Beauty of a card though. Figured it would be $8? $12?

I will price check them for you tonight. The basketball cards at least. None of those Kidds are worth more than $3.

I thought the Brand was an Auto because of the AU after the end of the card.

Appreciate it bro. For curiositys sake, more than anything else
