Default 3 Simple Pieces of Advice to Start

In terms of shopping list, I am thinking of “unique, possibly one of a kind” oddball vintage baseball items to adorn my “card cave”

I’d welcome others’ advice - as I’m guessing others would too!

(As a bonus, if anyone from the Atlantic City area has “must do” things at night, would love to hear from you, too)

Thx all

1) Waar Comfortable Shoes
2) If your budget is x and you can afford to do so bring 2-3X
3) If an item is unique to you AND fairly priced do not walk around with the 1"ll be back attitude - grab the item. That is the biggest regret I have seen over the years from people on this board. That is also based on what you see you are looking for. OTOH, if you are looking to work on your 1962 Topps set, you can walk around until you find someone you feel comfortable with.
