4 huge boxes of baseball cards... hmm

Ideal as **Ultra Scarce BONUS** for the ebook. In case FB doesn't love you anymore - these cards will :P

P.S: lol revenue numbers lol
 


Make fake ebay auctions about one specific card.
Walk into pawn shop, tell him you want 2000 for the card.
Give him the rest too for 2K, when the auctions say it's going for 15K
Profit.
oh, and write ebook.
Profit again.
 
You may have a local card shop near you that would buy the whole thing, you'd get raped because they want to flip them, but it's a good alternative to actually going through them.
 
It can hard to give that shit up because you know it's really valuable to somebody, and probably when you were a kid you were like "Holy fuck, this card is worth $6!! Jackpot!" But you've just got to let go of that and get rid of them. Choose the 10 or 20 that have the most sentimentel value and keep those, then toss the rest. I did that with all my old comic books a few months ago.

Oh wait, I just realized these weren't even your cards. Well, fuck in that case just toss 'em. Not worth the time unless you're broke.

BEFORE THE STEROID ERA
 
Gotta do the same shit here... reminder of how fast time fucking flies.

I have a box of cards including a few years of full sets of o-pee-chee premiere (sp?), upper deck, various sports, tons of rookie cards, a couple air sealed that were in the $50+ range (ballin).. also have an autographed Gordie Howe puck, and a few sick comics...

Going to donate mine to kids directly somehow, give them to a pure heart instead of some collector that will rape them and keep xx for his shelf or some shit. A lil' karma goes a long way with kids imo.
 
Scan them in, let the OCR do the work, write script to check against and/or post on ebay, profit
 
Dude, I have probably 20K baseball cards, all from the 70's, 80's & 90's. Mostly full sets from those era's, but not unopened. Most of the cards from those years are worth shit anymore. The baseball card market tanked in the early 90's from what I remember. Hell Jose Canseco's 86 Donruss rookie card was worth $200 bucks at one point back then (according to Beckett's), but now the thing's going on eBay for $0.99. I always thought when I was collecting that in 30 years I could sell my collection and make a fortune. We'll it's been 25 years and the only cards that are still worth anything are the star players from the 50's & 60's. Koufax, Mantle, Dimaggio, Aaron, Kaline, etc.

I offered them first to my parents church - thought maybe the little Sunday school kids would want them or something - but they didn't.

And since none of my Family members did I just said fuck it and threw them out. I never went completely through them but since I bought them for a little over a grand I doubt many of them got valuable over the next 8 years.

LOL

Late 80's older brother sold his collection to help pay for his last year of college and living expenses. He had been collecting them since he was very young. Wouldn't let you touch them, everything sealed in these special plastic folders, etc. Thought it was pretty cool how a childhood hobby turned out.
