Attending the National Sports Collectors Convention in Chicago? Have cards you want to sell?
Instead of shipping them to us, you can just drop them off at our booth (#445).
You can take advantage of any of our published processing services, or you can use a promotional service that will only be available at the National.
Here is how you will be able to use the show-only service:
□ 1 Come find us at booth #445
□ 2 Grab a special 550-count box
□ 3 Fill it with no more than five different products
□ 4 Drop it back off with us before the end of the show
Specific pricing and processing time will only be revealed at the show.
If you just want to use one of our normal processing services, that is fine. You are welcome to drop those off as well. The show-only service is the only one that will have the 5-product limitation.
What we mean by “Product”
A product is a specific set of cards. Not just a year, not just a sport, not just a brand. A product is something like “2008 Bowman Chrome Baseball” or “2010/11 Famous Fabrics Ink – Hockey Edition”. A product includes any card that it would be possible to pull from opening a specific pack.
Note: These packs must be from an original manufacturer, and cannot be repackaged products from a variety of years.
Example of Same Product:
& 
These two cards count as the same product, because you can pull Yankee Stadium Legacy insert cards out of packs of 2008 UD Masterpieces. Same pack, Same product.
Example of Different Products:
& 
These two cards are both Fleer, both baseball, and both the same player, but they come from different products. One is a 1995 Fleer and one is 1996 Fleer. Different pack, different product.
To take advantage of this special you can have a maximum of 5 different products in your 550-count box. If you’ve got more than five, even if it’s only one or two stray cards, you won’t be eligible. We think the best way to take advantage of this deal is to buy unopened boxes from some of the great vendors at The National, crack open the product, maybe take advantage of some wrapper redemption promotions, and then just pop them into our 550-count boxes and drop them off at our booth. You are welcome to bring cards from home. Just remember the 5-product rule: same pack, same product; different pack, different product. See you at the National!
Tim,
Not really happy that less than 3 weeks before the show that stipulations to drop offs are announced. I had 1500+ cards I delayed shipping to you foe the express purpose of bringing them to the National to give to you guys. May not be a bad idea to reconsider…..
Maybe the post needs some revision. You are welcome to use any of our normal processing services. The 5-product limitation is specific to a show-only promotion we will be running.
I see….so if I want to drop off cards and use the 15 cent processing coupons I purchased previously, I am free to do that?
Thanks Tim,
Brad
Yep
I was wondering is there a limit to how many of these special boxes a person can get?
There is no limit, but we are only bringing 500 boxes.
I was wondering what the special was and do you have any boxes left? Also I am dropping off other cards at the national do they need to be packaged to be mailed or do you put them in a bigger box to be mailed. Thanks.
