Raw & Slabs

npa589 · #1 08-13-2025, 01:30 PM

I also collect raw, as I just love being able to flip through the binder, and since I collect all Cubs (trying to get every back combination in T205, T206, and T207, etc) - it's especially great seeing them side by side in a 15 pocket binder page.

For a shameless plug, I have an eBay store with a decent amount of raw cards. I don't post things for sale nearly as often as I used to on Net54, but there have been a good steady amount of members who have reached out to me here after seeing my username coded within an eBay listing.

Ignore eBay prices too, just ask me and I'll tell you my best immediately. I much prefer to sell to Net54ers.

Nate's a great guy. i also have a ton of raw available, but anything i think would grade a 3+ i usually submit. but plenty of 2ish cards are quite beautiful and personally i collect raw too.

Agree that Nate is a top drawer dealer. Always fair in his descriptions and pricing...have bought many cards from him and highly recommend!

Jim is the best to buy from. I'm not able to get too too much right now but his prices are always fair and his shipping is really quick.

Thanks again Jim!

I will have to check out your ebay store and see what i find. SGC graded ones look nice the price you have to pay for grading is a joke now. For me i like the raw cards. I consider myself a "Curator T206" guy. Like to save these guys they need a good home. I enjoy the history of them and learn a lot on them. I try to collect the low grade ones since the VG are very expensive for my budget. I just finished collecting the horizontal ones and those were hard to find in some what okay condition.

right now I'm trying to collect the Brooklyn Dodgers ones but i notice those are expensive. On eBay they start off $40 and up and those are very poor.

If you have any extra ones in decent condition let me know @NPA589

thanks again for all the feedback guys , and have a goodnight.

Made some nice moves with Nate the last month. Good stuff going on there...

Hey all,

I went to a flee market down the road from me. Found a lot of dealers out there selling vintage cards. This one dealer had T206 cards at prices starting from $20 to $45. I thought i found a good deal but when I look at the cards closer I found they were re-prints. I ask him about the cards and she said they were her grandfathers. That he collected them for a long time.

The feel and smell weren't there plus I took out my loop out. She straight got mad and said she didn't want to sell them to me. The few seconds I had to review the card you could see the printing was off.

I told her sorry but I'm a new collector just trying to figure out cards. They were not happy with me and I just said thank you, and have a nice day.

Next week I will be heading to a very big Flee market and very excited about that one. Hopefully I could find me some good deals.
