@@jamesestrada82 When Scottie left, there was another guy that took over, but ran it VERY poorly.

I second what @James Estrada stated, and it looks like you have a mess to clean up from the other guy who took over. Also, I spent 6 years in Logan and am a USU grad. Love that town and miss it greatly! Enjoy it and I'll be sure to hit up the attic when I come through town (as long as it's open).

You're talking in past tense alot......,are you still the owner?

Nice vid dude !!

I know this is older, but a couple questions, how did you get ADA compliant ok'd and do you share the restroom fir your employees with taco time (which is bomb btw, we have them in WA).

u will run out of inventory eventually

​@@LITMOVIESCENESthat why it preferable to start online rather than onsite until you got alot of imventories or funds to buy even more single cards

Good luck brother!

100% coming from a collector first and dealer to get rid of what I don't collect and said this to so many customers last week at a show! I said comps should never be anything other than a guestimate guideline or starting point of negotiating a price from there it's worth what ever 2 people decide it's worth period go back to supreme and Nike flipping(not u😉) and leave #thehobby alone

😆 card shops were the worst. I remember shops offering garbage prices on purchases but selling everything full retail as if it's PSA 10. You guys were pretty much pawn shops that took advantage of people's excitement for the hobby and sports. What it is now IS a market! The shops don't "set" the price anymore, the MARKET does. I hope all the card shops go away. Card shops broke my heart as a kid and are 100% the reason I stopped collecting. I remember the feeling of trying to sell or trade and always left feeling taken advantage of. I remember thinking I did well on a card because I bought it for 5$ and now it was worth $50 only to be offered $8.

@@jacobr4558 That's business. Go take your car to a dealership and see what they offer you.

😆 THAT is exactly my point. Car dealerships don't OWN the market! Its 1 option of many. A dealer might offer me 1,000 for my car but I can sell to another person/collector for $3,000. Imagine is dealerships were the ONLY way to buy a 🚗. That is what the card industry WAS. Those days are gone and that's the only reason I'm back in this hobby.

I think this hobby needs an enima. All the old school people are just upset because they can't take advantage of people as easily as before. Now there are grades and market prices. It was SO shady before and basically came down to card shops(aka pawn shops just with collectibles) or con artists talking you into selling cheap or over paying. THOSE DAYS ARE GONE!

You ever go to "Mikes stadium Sportscards" store is always cluttered but Mike is a super cool dude! Store is basically in North parker though.

@@marshmangunnar9150 I was just going to vouch for Mike myself! He’s super friendly, and he pays top dollar for graded cards. Really fair prices for their product as well.

@@jamesestrada82 right on! Ya I've Never had a bad experience there, and ALWAYS leave with what I was looking for, too much most the time haha!

Especially now to say the least. He opened during the crazy value rise. The resale prices on singles now though from every sport whether it's low end, mid end, or high end have been dropping and dropping for the last 7-8 months unfortunately. Single values are always the first sign of what the entire market will do shortly after. The numbers aren't a result of cherry picking the worst sale of each card or anything like that either. The market has done nothing but go down every month for long enough now that it doesn't seem likely to change. Also the huge names like Luka aren't just also loosing value but the bigger hit singles are the ones loosing the largest % margin of value each month. Not looking good at all. I love what I'm hearing from Fanatics and how they plan to cut out all the middleman crap that's been going on since about 2018. The thing I wonder about though is if they will be WAY TOO LATE. We still have about another 3 years until they take over everything and their promises of way lower prices for the individual collector even start to kick in. I will always be a collector but I wouldn't be surprised if the hobby returns to the state it was in between 2012-2017 (which was an awful but not nearly as fun as it got between 2017 and 2020). The days of getting a Prizm box for $175-$225 may return like it was in early 2018 but it won't be possible to hit a silver Luka worth $150ish give or take. 2018 was the wonder years for real lol.

Hey! Those negative reviews unfortunately came after I had left the shop (I left at the end of August 2020). Make sure you shoot me a message on Instagram when you are up here and I will make sure the current owner is there to meet you 😁.

@@scottiebcards2354 sounds good thanks! I just discovered your channel and really dig your videos. My jaw dropped when I heard you mention Logan. I'm from Ogden, and live in Layton.

The guys at Epic Ports Cards are good guys. As for the Card Attic, the one time I went there, I called in first and they met me there and took me up... but that was during the covid shut down, so not sure if that is how they're doing things now or not, for what it's worth 👍

@@bearcards3497 Yeah, Epic has been awesome. It's just a bit of a drive from the north side of the valley. But I try to get in there every month or two.

@@goodnedYep, it's a bit out of town, but luckily not too far. It's nice there are a couple in the valley for sure. Take care 👊

Awesome bro good Luck I’m looking to do the same here in nyc

@@Brooklynquietmoney Thank you so much! What part of the process you at with your shop? Being in NYC you'll get tons of traffic and customers!!

@@murphscardtown legit the beginning looking for a decent commercial space it’s so damn expensive out here 2 grand and up

Ooouu I'll be in SAT end of April 👀

Yes

u cant

youd go broke owning a card shop..theres very little money in it

@@LITMOVIESCENES Seriously? 😢

@@tubenachos youd have to have someone going to walmarts etc and reselling to you..and thats all drying up fast ..noone really buys single cards worth anything...say it costs you 2k a month to run the shop counting rent etc...you know how many cards youd have to sell for 2k? lol ...you have the best store front in the world..its called ebay...if you could run one rent free itd be ok

All I know is start stockpiling Topps starting now.

@@orlandoalessandrini2505 Stockpiling or will Topps slowly become irrelevant?

@@T-TiiMe they're losing the license so they'll stop printing them in 2023.

@@orlandoalessandrini2505 I understand that, but my question is how do we assume the value will increase over time? I could see both ways.

@@T-TiiMe I think it depends on how the investors see it. If they can find value in promoting Topps after obsolescence, they'll go ahead and play the "nostalgia" card and use the fact that Topps isn't in business (or at least not doing MLB cards) to jack up the value / price of the merch. IF on the other hand, investors see little to know value in promoting the brand, then the market will respond accordingly and what you'll find is that the final boxes and cards coming from Topps will most likely be notable for their RC, Chrome and SP / SSP cards, as no more will be produced for the foreseeable future. I'm hedging my bets and saving my cash now to buy boxes from here til then, and buy as many boxes as I can when their last boxes come out.

prices fluctuate for cards and lotta of work to reprice everything. i could understand your point.....u have to understand the shops also. its just hard to have a frontline store competing with internet. i just don't see any brick and mortar shops being successful unless they do big part of their business online. then they think why they should pay rent and hours being at the shop. opening a card shop just not beneficial. you also have to worry about security.

😂 I put in three. KZfaq must have added more. I'll check it out.
