Weekly Roundup

What’s been going on this week?

It seems like it’s been an off week here. Can’t explain it, but we’re starting to move again. Well I am, my body was aching all week, and now I’m starting to feel back to normal. And, now it’s time to start getting ready for Hidden Legends.

Spoilers will start be released left and right, and before you know it, it’ll be time for Midnight PreRelease. We’ll have more information on that a little later. Probably a week or two, but you probably already know what it’s going to say.

We got ourselves a bunch of Sports Cards.

Not planning on fully going in that direction, but when you find a great deal, you have to take it. That means we got ourselves an account on Buysportscards.com and, we’re slowly filling it up with our inventory. Stay tuned for more info on that as well.

Rest assured though that Final Fantasy will always be our main thing.

The Weekend Is Over

I think I have it figured out.

Hopefully that is.

But first, We did have a busy weekend. Did two shows back to back, and as always we had a good time. First how was the Countryside Sports card show, even though we don’t do much sports cards, one of my sons likes going, so I figure, let’s just go and have some fun. We did for the most part, I’ve known the organizer for quite some time now.

Didn’t do much sales wise, but that was expected. It’s a Sports card show, only 5% of the people that go there are interested in anything that’s not Sports cards.

GCon was better, plenty of people there, and I noticed that things are slowing down in general. Only did a quarter of what we did last year. Not many people are out there spending extra money. And, we need that money to buy more trading cards.
Which brings me to what I think I figured out.

A way to list more cards on the site without having to make multiple listing of the same cards in order to have a regular version and the foil version.

Be on the lookout for that new update coming up.

We have to shows lined up, and they are both repeats, so we’ll probably see you there again.

Plenty of sports cards for all of you like those kinds of cards. We’ll have our table lined up with Final Fantasy TCG, Pokemon, Magic the Gathering, Maybe even some MetaZoo, and Flesh and Blood. We’ll see what we decide to bring.

Sunday we have GCon in Orland Park.

Start time is once again at 9AM, and this show goes on until 3PM. It’s at the Orland Park Civic Center. 14750 South Ravinia Avenue in Orland Park.

Lots of Collectables available,ranging from Comics, to Toys and Action Figures. We’ll have some of these items at our table, but mostly Trading Cards as usual.

I’ll see you all there.

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.
