In the 80s that box of cards would have paid for a 2 week vacation! I’m sure they still have some value. Fun storage space

You hit the jackpot Renee with this one. Payback for some of the past bummers. There could be gold in the card box! It just takes 1 very rare card.

@Yesquire0 Жыл бұрын

More likely something that will have to be sold in substantial lots for some small percentage of what each card might fetch if a buyer wanted to buy a single card. Listing each single card with suitable photos to demonstrate its condition would probably take over a decade to complete if you first quit your day job. Hope springs eternal. I can say there isn't a signed Babe Ruth tobacco card in among the piles and piles of cards. I once had to liquidate a huge inherited stamp collection. Choices were open up a stamp store and man it all week long, or bundle it in lots and auction it off. The decedent claims it was worth $400,000. It fetched $27,000 total at auction. Nobody ever mentions all the time it takes to market collectibles as singe items, especially cards and comic books.

No risk, no reward, Renée ! This time you hit a little jackpot with the whole bunch of baseball cards and a lot of practical items, congrats ! 👏This guy locked the black box because it was just a part of the system to secure high end tools. A great deal, that´s for sure ! And: don´t mind your hair, it looked perfect ! 👌 Greets from GER, U.

I get it, I actually use my high school locker lock to secure my gym locker when I go. I can't remember much, but I certainly was able to remember the combo! Was not expecting to find what was in that plastic tool box, always have to lock up your manicure set! Hope you have a wonderful weekend, Uwe!

This just makes me wonder why Storage unit places don't just have someone salaried or perhaps a person who goes around from business to business on commission to go through storage units after people have lapsed on payments Who helps them turn a profit on anything inside and clears the unit out quicker.

You do lift people's spirits through this channel. I'm glad you found a high-margin unit :). I don't know anything about baseball cards but even at $0.50 each you probably have a few hundred dollars there. From reading some other comments it might be a lot more than that. Is there an underground tote trade among resellers - a lot of you must end up with so many. Don't often hear, "Diapers - smells good," in the same sentence :). Congratulations, don't spend it all in one place and have a great weekend!

@PaperandMoose Жыл бұрын

Haha, I'm guessing that diaper was unused! It's funny when I was editing I noticed that I did say that the plastic tool box smelled like lotion, or something, but I did notice a smell. Made sense once we opened it! Taco Stacks is going to go through the cards and will keep some from his team, payment for opening up the lock! The cards look to be mostly from the 80s, and I'm clueless about the value. So some research will need to be done! Hope you have a wonderful weekend! History Behind the Paper should be out early in the week!

Please be careful whom you take those cards too. There are a lot of people that will lie to you if you have something very valuable. I used to collect baseball cards as a kid and a lot of what I had were the 50's to the early 90's cards. Cards that are autographed but not personalized are worth more. (To Paper and Moose your truly Rollie Fingers would be a personalization of a card)
