Opinions and comments re LCS

[deweyinthehall]

In addition to GM, I buy a lot of vintage from The Battersbox: https://www.ebay.com/str/battersbox, and I've also used MantleRulz: https://www.ebay.com/str/mantlerulzsvintagesportscards.

I have a nice LCS where I am but they're mostly stocked with modern. Great people and great service though. When I do buy from them it's usually from their Beckett store, and then I drive 1/2 mile to pick it up.

One of the closest other LCSs is the original House of Cards which spawned the Huggins and Scott auction house. THAT was a great store to browse in.

I grew up in Connecticut - anyone here remember Bayshore Enterprises in West Haven?

Battersbox is good, esp. if you like cards that are just a bit outside 'investment' range. I end up spending a few hours at their table at the National every time.

I'll pile on. The Battersbox offers consistent quality and fast shipping. You won't get many bargains there, but the pricing isn't unfair.

If you search around net54, you will find plenty of opinions about most of these AHs, both good and bad. I’ve even had a run-in with one myself.
