Here’s to 2024

2023 was our best year yet. We met multiple goals that we had set for ourselves. And, now it’s time to set new goals and and surpass them. We couldn’t have done it without all of you. And, we’re striving to make 2024 a better year. So, …

What’s a good way to start 2024?

Considering that we’re already a week in, we’re already doing better than last year. But, we need to do more. Much more. First off we need to start doing more shows. Cons and Events. We’ll have Hidden Hopes Midnight PreRelease coming up in a couple of months. We’ll be looking into doing more card shows, and more toy shows. We’re looking to do some traveling around here. Get out of the office, stretch our legs, and meet some of you.

Next off, the plan is to change up the website. As you already have seen we’re not listing any new singles on here. Sure you can still buy the ones we have here until we get rid of them. Or until, we get that update done, which with everything that’s going on it might take some time. But, have no fear, if you’re looking to grab some singles, you can just head on over to our TCGPlayerPro store. Where we have all of our singles already on there. And, we’re adding more each day.

We also plan on doing a bunch of Coupons. With one coming shortly. We’ll keep you updated.

No More Sports Cards, For Now

How come I always thought “Mr. Blue Sky” was a Beatles song? Nope, Electric Light Orchestra. Sure, sounds like Paul to me.

Anyway, we did a Sports Card show last Saturday, and I always say I’m done with them, but a guy I know was setting it up, so I decided against my better judgement and got a couple of tables. I went with one of my kids who brought along his stuff.
We started the day out like any other day. Load up the car and, off we go.

On our way I decided I should look up the address, I got an idea of where to go, but couldn’t remember if I needed to turn left or right on Joliet Rd. Look for my phone, it’s not in my pocket, not in my car. Stupid me, put my phone on top of my car as I was loading the boxes in.

Turn around real quick, luckily we weren’t too far away. As I’m driving down Central I see my phone laying in the middle of the street right by the train tracks. Fun times, I tell you.

Well, I have a case on it. Hopefully it still works. Hazard lights on, exit the car, pick up my phone, and off we go. I take a look at it, no scratches nothing, phone still looks good. Try and turn it on, NOPE. Didn’t want to work.

We still need to get to the Card Show, so I figured I’ll make my way to Joliet Rd. and figure out which way I’ll turn one I get there. Of course I made the wrong turn, but that’s ok we still made it on time.

I sold 1 thing the whole time. Meanwhile I’m watching Mason and he’s selling cards left and right. I didn’t even have a phone to waste some time on. At the end of the day, I managed to pick up a bunch of Vintage Pokemon cards, and a new phone.
