I have cards from when I was 6 years old. My father’s best friend was dying of cancer when I lived in New York he gave me his whole Yankees collection from when he was a kid. I have a Topps 1952 Mickey Mantle card I actually have two one graded a PAA 8 the other a 4 I have rookies of all of the Yankees including Ruth DiMaggio Rizzuto Berra Gehrig and so on. I left that home in New York in 1980 to go to California and my collection was in the Attic and my mother and father brought it with them. The collection could have easily stayed in the attic.

Haggling over $25 then offering store credit to the guy who said many times he doesn’t care about cards lollllllll that was so top notch negotiating !

Personally, I would've let him walk and stayed firm at $1250, I think the time, labor and work to get these cards prepped and put it out is a lot and your offer was already fair. The fact that he kept almost threatening you by saying he would just put them back in storage are the people I hate dealing with the most. Let him go somewhere else where they'll offer him $500 or better yet let him sit on them and maybe get $500 more in 20 years. Love your videos but this guy just made me so annoyed LOL

@historybuff1483

Ай бұрын

Lol, right. It says what they are on the package even. Binder pages etc.

Having some vintage in the store is cool for the customers . The bulk rate was fair because I saw a few in there that will go 10x to 20x but 500 of them will 2X and maybe 100 will 3- 5X. Overall not a lot of profit considering the amount of time to sell the majority but I think it's good to have variety in a store that grand. The graded vintage will work out for people wanting an affordable mid grade of a favorite card that would be out of their budget. I think Geoff was thinking this adds 600 vintage cards to the store more so than a large profit.

At the risk of sounding like ''the old guy," it's depressing that such a cool find of old cards, with all the nostalgia they stimulate, gets reduced to, ''I see some edge wear here. My gut feeling is that most of these are 4s or 5s." Grading wrecked the hobby.

Honestly, it was a great tutorial on how not to buy cards. " very cool collection, how much are you looking for?" Or " very cool collection, are you looking to grade these?" That's it, let him decide. Don't need to analyze and go over your plans with every card and you sure as shit don't guess what it will grade. Painful.

The '71 Topps Baseball are REALLY tough to find in mint condition. IN my opinion a Mint Set is a Holy Grail goal. My buddy used to do his chores back in the late 70's early 80s and his mom would give him a pack of 71s to open. It was always cool to stay over at his house...

Why not offer to grade the Wilt to get the deal done? He was just saying earlier he wanted that done. $1,250 and they will clean, submit for grading and ship the graded Wilt back to him. Done.

Wow that was way too much for that collection!!! I honestly would not have given no more than $500 for that collection because honestly there were only two nice cards in the whole collection and that was the Nolan Ryan and the Wilt Chamberlain that he kept! I would have told him to take him home because he would have most likely took them somewhere else and they would have probably offered him $400 or $500 for them and he would have came running back

I still have all my Michael Jordan and Jerry rices and a bunch of other cards. That I collected when I was younger like 20 some years ago

Good video showing both the seller and buyers view points. Specifically, paying a bit higher for cards you can move quickly versus the cards that will likely sit, thus dead capital sitting on a shelf. Keep 'em coming Geoff and gang!

Geoff tell him to take em home.

A series of vids, shorts even, of those cards as they go on their journey of being graded would be awesome.

Feels like a really strong offer on those cards. I would've stuck to my guns at 1k given the work, time they will probably sit there, and limited upside baked into mid/high grades of the bigger cards

Welcome to the new series of Antique Pawn Cards lol!

Go to the villages in Florida they have a vintage car trade show. I just don’t know what it is, but I know they have it.

This was fun. You should do more of these deals like this with collections, single card deals, etc. Set up a small table in corner and have it be your "Deal table". People love this stuff. TLC has tons of these types of shows lol. My only issue is with the Straw rookie. It's not. Some people mistake it as his rookie. His 83 Topps Traded is his most valuable card and his rookie card. But with this guy who honestly wouldn't know the difference and isn't a collector, the 84 is his first main set Topps release which is where thew confusion comes into play with these players who have the updated set rookies. So it's fine. The guy had a nice story about both and he had a smile when he got the Straw so you know what - alls well that ends well!

that was fun and went down about the way i suspected it would.

There was more value in the binders than the cards HQ guys realized or were willing to mention. 69’ BB is loaded with RCs of many NBA Top 75 players that were blown past and 71 baseball high numbers like Blue and Allen can bring real money in decent condition. 70 Bench High # is a bigger card than most of what they pulled out. Doesn’t seem like anyone there has depth of knowledge on vintage.

I was totally going to comment with the exact same information.. especially when I saw them blow by the high number 71 Allen.. the knowledge of vintage details is extremely weak and desperately needs to be a focus to hire on his team.. they could also just sell the partial sets on Ebay to move the majority along as well.

Geoff, I enjoyed this video and look forward to seeing more like this in the future. You’re not going to please all the viewers, as you well know. However, I need to say that you guys should have stuck to your guns at 1k. The best part of the video was the back and forth with your guy about the pricing logic. What you both came up with made total sense and was extremely fair. Anything higher than 1k was too risky. I actually wouldn’t mind a video where, at the end, you simply cannot come to an agreement. Thats the reality many times, it wouldn’t hurt to show a few of those here and there too. That being said, hopefully you fair well on the grading. It would be nice to get a follow-up video on those results in the future, win or lose.
