Default Major finds?

Posted By: T Engle

I attended the Robert Morris Pittsburgh card show a few months back. I remember the second day of the show a middle aged woman came in, with 350+ T206's. Of course she went to the first person she saw when she walked in which was no other than Mr. Mint. The T206's ranged from 5-8's and were stunning. Right away Mr. Mint offered 18k for all of them. She turned it down and went to Levi Bleam right after. Levi offered 25k after looking at them extremely hard. After long thinking, she made the deal and walked out a happy person.

The next morning, I went to sell Levi a few T205's and I asked him about "The big find" he purchased. Considering I am 14, I thought he would just brush me off because I am a kid. But he shockingly pulled them out of the back, and showed me a few. He told me that there would be a some that would grade 8's, and he would sell those off and keep the rest for his personal collection. I'd never seen Levi that happy.
