My Visit to Cards HQ - What I Found

Спорт

I stopped by Cards HQ while in Atlanta. I got to look around and hunt for deals on vintage. I had a real good time! Props to Geoff Wilson @SportsCardInvestor for opening such a great card shop and providing this space for collectors to enjoy.

    2:16 I hate it when people just throw away cards that aren't "Hits". Geoff should put out some boxes by the breaker tables for unwanted cards that could be donated to the Children's hospital.

    Hi Hugo! Thanks for the tour. The prices did seem very fair. I was pretty surprised with all the prewar. Really nice pickups! I really liked that Matsui you picked up. As well as the Colavito looked great. That was a nice grab, especially for $20. I wish more card shops would have fair prices. Like you said “can’t knock the hustle” on any of them. I just get tired of walking out of so many because they mark their prices so high. It’s almost like some don’t care they just want to take advantage of the people who don’t know. Thanks for sharing Hugo! Seemed like you have a great trip. Have a great weekend and hope all is well.

    Hi Hugo, thanks for the tour. Those prices seem pretty fair. I like all of your pickups. Colavito was a favorite of my father and father-in-law. I picked up his rookie last year with a gift card my oldest daughter gave me for Father's Day. The BGS A-Rod Rookie was a nice buy. I have been looking at BVG cards a little more lately because the value is there. I always try to stretch my hobby budget for the cards I really want and some of the BVG cards I am seeing are going for half of what PSA is selling for. While I prefer PSA, if the card is of the quality I am looking for, i will pull the trigger regardless of if it is SGC, BVG or PSA. For what it's worth, you get my seal of approval. Haha. Have a great weekend, my friend.

    That’s great to hear about Colavito. He was a special player and that is a great way you got his rookie card. I’ve also been looking at BVG and BGS cards lately. There was a PSA 8 Arod in the case with this BGS 8.5 I bought. That one was listed at $65 so I saved quite a bit on a better condition card. I also prefer PSA graded cards but once in a while I’ll take the big savings and go with the BGS. Thank you for watching and for your comment, Terry. I hope you have a great week!

    Awesome looking store! I miss going to retail shops like this, it kind of reminds me of going to places like Blockbuster as a kid. You just don't get that same kind of experience when everything is purchased online. Great pickups! subbed!

    Now that you mention it, it did feel like browsing through movies at Blockbuster! It did feel nice shopping at a store like this as opposed to all online. I’ve bought most of my collection online but this was way more fun. Nice that the prices were great, too. Thank you for watching and for subscribing. I really appreciate it!

    Hugo, thanks for providing the footage on Card HQ. Was wondering how the layout would look. Definitely a modernized place of your typical card store. I'm sure time would fly by if I visited there. Hopefully some day! Who knew your were looking for ex Yankees in Matsui and A-Rod, lol. But how can you not be a fan of what those guys accomplished. I was looking for Colavito RCs a couple weeks ago, not near that $20 range so awesome find.

    it's been rainy off and on in lowerstate New York to!!! I see a Sandy Koufax in a 2, Ted Williams , nice Hideki , Alex Rodriguez rookie , 1957 Rocky Colovito it's hard to see if the prices are good , great or fair and is it good because it's good or is good because your in Atlanta? like what you said in the 5:30 to 5:35 range can you get these cards? High number card sets not cards meaning a high number but cards that came out later in the year 1966 cards 523 to 598 ? 1967 534 to 609 does he have card 538 Jc Martin, 540 Norm cash , 580 Rocky Cloivito and 605 Mike Shannon? in good condition how much is each card worth and bad condition how much are the cards worth? 1968 How much is Jim Palmer worth in good condition and how much is it worth in bad condition card 575 for 1968 there are no good high numbers only the Reds team card and Palmer? do they have traded sets say 1974 and 1976? for 1969 do they have cards that are both in white lettering and yellow? any Hall of fame neighbors? like 1966 John odom Rene Latchman Skip Lockwood 1973 Mike Garmen Cecil Cooper 1974 Ron Cey John Hilton 1971 Dave Mcdonald 1967 Billy Sorrel 1968 Bill Denhy any cards of the late 70's common players small stars and hall of famers?

    Great questions, Mark! I guess they don’t have anything you want. I was taking more in general like modern, vintage, autos, relics, numbered cards, etc. I like looking for those type of cards, too. Unfortunately this shop didn’t have anything like that but hopefully in the future because they sure have the space to have that inventory. The prices I think are because of the Market Movers app they use. The prices seemed to be right along with what they sell online so I like that because most dealers mark them up from my experience. Sorry I did a quick stroll through it all and didn’t show too much detail. I was just trying to show the shop and a few examples of what they have. Thanks for watching and commenting as always, Mark!
