There's a lot of people apparently in a position to burn their money for kicks..... the card collecting resale market is bonkers too. Who would have thought that those $1/$2 packs of cards back in the 80s and early nineties may reward you with a card or two that someone is willing to spends hundreds of dollars for today.
Are cards a thing again? I think a lot of people collected cards in the early 90s. So many of us have a box of cards somewhere from that era I always assumed they weren't worth much because so many were printed (due to popularity).
The only stuff from that era going for a decent amount are the top cards with 10 grades. UD Griffey and things like that. Vintage and new releases are on fire, though.
Going to get my Lebron James rookie card graded. Found it last summer in a shoebox. Might be worth something some day.
Digital cards are all the rage these days. Topps has a few different games available as apps and if you look on eBay you’ll see what I’m talking about. Also nba top shot.
Lebron James PSA 9 Topps Rookie is up to $2300. Soon you could flip it for a Benny.

That's the card that caught my attention in the recent news article I read. I also have that one, some sets, most of mine are hockey cards. Ken Griffey was the reason I gave baseball a sniff following the Blue Jays world series run. Will our toddler give a hoot about collectible cards? I doubt it. Be well, everyone

I’ve owned and enjoyed a Benaroya set! Now it’s with a new owner and good dude in PJ land. I am going to have it and some other cards graded and wait to see what happens in 10 years when my first goes off to college.

You have to send them to https://www.psacard.com/ You can also do Backett or GMA also. They are all about the same.
I looked into it a few years ago and it is expensive to have them graded.
I had the year set for 1988 baseball cards and a couple others. Gave them away a few years ago because it was worth next to nothing. Hard to believe anything from that era is worth the paper it was printed on. Cards from the 60s and earlier are worth a lot because kids played with them, pinned them to their wall then threw them away. By the 80s kids got them just to collect. As a general rule, things made to collect aren’t very collectible in the end.

That's a good find! It's doing pretty well already.
Accidentally posted this in wrong thread. Meant to go here.
Since some of you may be flush with stimulus cash, let me know if you are interested and happen to be in the Akron-Cleveland area. Maybe saving on fees and the hassle of shipping it, we can make a deal. Unopened. No poster or original shipping box.

Yeah, not us. Paid off remaining credit card debt, rest in savings. Zero credit cards debt for the first time since in 15 years. Feels good! Thanks government!

We got $1000 from our provincial government in December, a few days later the hot water tank sprung a leak. Easy come easy go.
I could buy overpriced vinyl with savings I have, but I only spend so much on recreation. If I bought something mega expensive, it would probably exhaust by fund budget for a while. That being said the lack of concerts over the last 12 months did allow me to spend more money on records and ultralight backpacking gear

Digital cards have been sold for years with zero increase in price. NBA topshot is a totally different story.
If you have sports cards and want posters or other PJ stuff I am your guy.
Just to name a few posters I have for trade if you have something I like are.

I am a massive fan of vinyl and I love PJ but I can’t get my head around spending $1000s on a record or boxset. I also don’t understand having one sealed and one to play. Is that to make money from in future? Personally I love playing my records, not looking at them in shrink wrap. It is a shame when things get to this price and scarcity, so only a select fee can enjoy them.

Surprised trading cards are back with hype. Anyone remember when the O'pee Chee Premier '92 Hockey cards were first available? Packs were cheap at the beginning then all of the sudden packs were selling for $20 bucks a pop.
Imagine Pearl Jam's '13, '16 & '18 trading cards jump up high in value shortly?
Going forward with BGS on the Lebron rookie card. Found a bunch of my 80s/90s Jordan cards too. Going to get a few of those graded as well. With any luck, 10 years from now when my oldest goes to college, I’ll have some extra cash to help!

13 I can see, 16 and 18, nope.
yes the OPC premier was the first High End hockey card besides the Stadium club set that they also mass overproduced.
Certain cards are still worth something from those eras.
I'll buy or trade people!! Got PJ stuff to trade you for your cards that are sitting in boxes that you aren't doing anything with!
