Keirik Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 Not looking to collect old stuff. I have plenty of those but I’m wondering what company is dominating with the high valued cards? Upper Decl I assume? Any specific series I should be looking at? Where can I buy them online trustworthy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siddious Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 I was actually thinking about doing this too but with my luck cards will be worthless when I have a decent collection going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the hardest part is figuring out which ones the way to go. There are like a ton of different upper deck versions for each year. Lol i don’t even know where the hell to even buy them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillyb Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 Oh man, I spent a lot of March and April with my dad in PA and I ended up driving back like...50 pounds of baseball cards and binders. Amongst them were some hockey sets, one of which I literally just sold on ebay for 99 cents hahaha. You're looking for hobby shops @Keirik 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew a Penalty Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 Upper Deck, Score, Panini, O-Pee-Chee. Those are pretty much the brands at the moment. Upper Deck probably produces the most variety from what I've seen. Can't say I know much — I have a family member that always sends me cards for the holidays, but I just protect them and forget them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Bateman Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Buy players you want on eBay, opening packs is essentially gambling, and the hobby is so hot right now its hard to get anything at reasonable cost big difference to look for is retail v hobby. Retail is more for kids or if you just have desire to rip open packs. You really wont find anything valuable in there. Hobby is where you can pull the high end patch, auto, and numbered cards but those boxes are pretty expensive. i generally just search players i want on ebay and filter through for auctions ending soonest, can find some steals that way 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keirik Posted August 24, 2022 Author Share Posted August 24, 2022 So I probably paid too much for it, but I managed to get an autographed winter classic Lundqvist card that also has a piece of the game used netting. Pretty cool. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Bateman Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 Thats dope, sounds like a great start to the collection My prized card right now is an Adam Fox autographed rookie card #'d to 49 graded a PSA 10 (only one graded a 10) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All that PSA graded means is that it got a rating I thought... But it could be rated poorly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Bateman Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 Its a 7 which isnt bad for something from the 80’s and for $5. Always like things in slabs too to preserve the card 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

josh Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 Do you buy them graded or do you send them to get it done? not sure if graded is the right term. my kids have gotten a few crazy Pokémon cards I confiscated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Bateman Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 I buy them graded, grading them themselves seems like a hassle but I may consider it if i get a good amount of high value non graded cards That Saquon card goes for like $450 graded so considering sending that in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
