Where are you buying 80’s cards?
My collecting has taken a turn over the past couple months. Previously, I would buy a high grade card, get it delivered, and then immediately have little satisfaction. Recently, I started buying lots of ungraded popular 80’s rookies, primarily Topps. Why have one, when I can have 10 at a lesser cost. For me, it’s been much more enjoyable.
eBay has been the primary source. Had a nice deal with a member of net54 a couple month ago, also. Any other places I should be lookin to acquire more cards? Thanks in advance. |

I would recommend COMC if you haven't checked it out. And if you're looking into buying bulk, sportlots.

Post a want list on here.
Have you tried COMC? For me the best part is you can buy a ton of cards from as many buyers as you want, let them build up and then have them all sent to you at one time. It will save you a ton of $ on shipping. You also don't have to directly deal with the sellers. Their only real negative is the horrible search engine they use. |

Thanks, guys. Great advice. I’ll check out both sites and work on a want list!

I just posted a primer on COMC in the 1950-70s section.

My local card shop, Burbank Sportscards. It is great to support a local brick and mortar business and fun to hang out and sift through 5K count boxes for interesting cards. Found this one a few weeks ago for $0.50:

Rob's son Ryan is responsible for turning Burbank back to a place where you can do local retail. I agree Adam, having them in your neighborhood is a wonderful thing indeed.

I love Rollie! Great find for a pair of quarters. Bummed that there is not much around here anymore that doesn't mainly focus on gaming cards or much more than 4-5 years old.
