Well, card show was pretty much a bust. Generally it's about 50/50 card tables and toy/comic tables, but today it was like 80/20, and two of the biggest card sellers are guys notorious for charging like hilarious prices (guy wanted $50 for an MJ that booked...$50. Oops). No wax either which was a big bummer b/c last time there was a guy that had dozens of new bball boxes out.

I saw a couple 96-97 autographics sonic but you didn't need them...and then stumbled on a Camby! I was super excited for about 5 seconds, until I realized it was the 97-98 version Sorry man!


I only managed to spend a whopping $4 on 4 cards from a dollar bin:

93-94 Hoops Fifth Anniversary MJ/Nique/Mailman (PC)
98-99 UD Choice Choice Reserve Kobe #69 (FT)
98-99 Molten Metal Xplosion Penny Hardaway #126 (FT)
92-93 UD Rookie Standouts Shaq (FT)

Almost swung a Kobe GU for MJ GU trade but it had a couple dinged corners so I backed off. So all in all, a bust, but still a fun way to spend a few hours

Just wondering if you have ever seen Evan's ebay listings? He's an avid card collector and has really nice stuff up on auction sometimes.

I havent seen his ebay listings, I have however reached out to him on social media and if I can find a RC of his and get it to grade PSA or BGS 10 he will make a trade with me. So its been my challenge to try and find one I can send in to grade.

The Greensboro show was bad, buckunteer. The Charlotte, Raleigh and Hickory shows are 10x better than that Greensboro show.

I've been to the Raleigh show (state fairgrounds right?) a few times. It's smaller, but more card-focused. I live like 10 mins. from the G-boro show and like 1 hr 15 minutes from the Raleigh show. This was easily the worst the G-boro show has been in the 4-5 times I've gone. Very strange. I'm hoping this time was the aberration and not a sign of what's to come!
