Got a chance to check out a new shop today with my dad. Mineral City Cards in Martinsville, IN has a little bit of everything, including these two 1985 NBA All-Star ballots I purchased today! You don’t see these out in the wild very often, and these are must-haves for any MJ collector. Check this shop out if you’re ever in the area!

Two big hits from on Black Friday! If you’ve never been there for Black Friday, you’re missing out! A big thanks to Andy for a fun day. The staff really does a great job making everyone feel welcome and making sure we’re all having fun. My little brother was pumped to win a prize on one of the hourly prize giveaways. I’ll be in soon for a PSA order 😂

Thank you to again for a smooth submission. Really happy with this one! The two Blue Helmets were pulled out of a dreaded Walgreens repack, and they BOTH Gem 10ed! I got a few PC Cards graded this time around, and I was definitely stoked to see the purple wave come back a 10 along with the Prizm RWB.

Pretty happy with my submission I just got back from ! The two 8s were anticipated (didn’t really care what the FF Error came back at since it’s for my own collection, and Indy Card Exchange took a glance at the Kobe for me beforehand. I got that one slabbed for my dad), the Judge coming back at a 9 was a pleasant surprise, the other 9s were generally anticipated, and the Dusty Henderson coming back a 10 was the highlight! Thanks again

I spent a lot of time at the Midwest Monster just meeting cool people of the hobby. I think what makes this hobby/business special is the cool people you meet along the way from all different walks of life. and put on one of the coolest card shows I’ve ever been to, and for someone who has collected cards for the better part of 25 years, I promise anyone that sees this that you’ll not want to miss the next one. My favorite card I purchased was this one. It’s nothing crazy or super high-end, but it’s a card that I grew up with and loved (the one I kept all these years was a “well-loved” card that got played with a lot). I often hear new collectors ask, “What should I collect? Is this product any good? Is there money in this?” Collect what you like. No one can tell you what’s cool or not. You want to try and make money off cards; that’s fine too. But as far as what you want to collect, collect what you want, and you’ll have much more fun! See you in October! 😎
