    Estate Planning & Card Collections - What to do?

    I was just admiring another of the Green Train of Happiness threads when the thought occurred to me as I'm in the midst of doing some estate planning - given how enormous I expect many of our personal collections are - what are my heirs going to do with all my cards? Few key concerns off the...

    UD SP Authentic Sign of The Times Decades (Multi-year) - Nearly Complete

    As I'm sure comes through, UD's SP Authentic line is - by far - my favorite line in sports cards. The assembly of this particular set has reflected the major transition in the way I collect; it started as mostly hits from my own breaks, to exclusively cards purchased in the secondary market. In...

    18-19 UD SP Authentic Limited Auto Set (Finally Complete!)

    Where to from here - adapting our collecting approach

    I, like I expect many of you, was deeply into breaking my own wax with a fair (sometimes a lot) of breaks in addition. The pandemic completely changed that (at least for me) as wax prices exploded yet the underlying value per box remained, at least in my opinion, either flat year-on-year or...

    Fall Expo - Questions from First Time Attendee

    Hi all Planning to head to Fall Expo in Toronto this year and had a few questions on what to expect: 1. Payments. Should I have EMT ready to go before I attend? I'm assuming some vendors will not accept PayPal (and very few will accept Venmo) so having a CAD-based account would make a lot of...
