@@MrK623 Absolutely! I trust this channel to not play games like that (not counting any NNOF tomfoolerly that may happen on April Fool's Day of course). He posts the crap he finds as well as the treasures.
This was way more worth it with just the Ryan's alone. Plus the second year's Ozzies and Ryne rookie... absolute homerun! Keep it up Jon! The Cult will always follow.
A very interesting box similar to my stash of non-rookie year 70s and 80s HOFmers that I bought in the 90s. Back in the day, nearly all of those were common HOFmer cards that one could get for around dollar a pop or less and I had hoarded up on them like this guy had done. I got those along with countless not-rookie Mattinglys, Murrays, Fisks, Trammells, Whitakers, Younts, Molitors, Carters, Yazs, Carews, and even a few Morris, Strawberry and Gooden rookies from the discount bins. What's odd is that I have them stored in that same exact Dugout box, but each card in a now yellowed top loader. LOL! Sadly people don't seem to care unless it's a rookie card for anything 1978 on up (unless it's a Ryan), which is a shame as a lot of those cards are rather awesome.
(1) I definitely had that same "Dugout" storage box when I was a kid, too. (2) I've got to make time to go to some flea markets and antique malls around here so I can find even 5% of the cool stuff you find.
My uncle used to run a plastic place called Bircraft. They made the desk paper weights and pen sets that had the roses carved in them. Anyways he made thousands and thousands of those card holders in the late 80s and 90s. Bircraft in Huntington Indiana
What a value buy! Hope you can work out more deals with that seller! Yup, I have those style protectors. Not very safe, like anything from the 90's. Thanks Jon!
Jon you've been one heck of a 'stumble across a find' streak smh wow! You got your $$$ worth for sure and you might want to head back to her flea market table next weekend with stash like that as some are gradable from what it appears and my fav: '77 Nolan HL's/'78 HL's were awesome condition thanks for sharing!
You get better steals than anybody I've ever seen. What's really outrageous, $10 for a few H.O.F.ers and the rest just vintage commons is one thing, BUT there is a good player every card!! I'm bitching cause jealous, who wouldn't.
I always get great deals from women at flea markets! I think they just want the stuff *GONE* Men, on the other hand seem to want $1-5 PER CARD or $10-20 per video game for junk!
