So I was given a bunch of cards...

N8theGR8 · 01-02-2020, 07:44 PM

A few weeks ago a friend of mine who is the director at a children’s hospital messaged me and said she had a bunch of cards to give me if I wanted them. She said they were donated to the kids at the hospital but none of the kids wanted them. She knew I collected so she thought she’d see if I wanted them. I of course said I’d take them and look through them (I assumed they were all just base cards) I picked them up a few days ago and to my surprise it was multiple white boxes full of Prizm from the last few years! All the rookies and major stars had been taken out but it was still Prizm. I began looking through it and found tons of color (not just base) there are silvers, rwb, greens, pink ice, red ice, and a few more. I know there isn’t a lot of value in it, but if anyone needs anything to complete sets let me know.

I’ve decided to try and sell what I can (I’ll make a sale thread in the b/s/t section) but before I sell them off in lots, let me know if this thread if there is anyone you are looking for.

**All the money I make off these I am going to donate back to the children’s hospital as that was the original intent of the donation.**

I’d prefer to sell the cards in lots to make shipping easier.

The years are 16/17, 17/18, and 18/19.

Here are some pictures of what I have.

Let me know if you want any specific player and otherwise I will eventually make a sale thread once I get everything sorted.

Thanks for looking!

Sell and give the proceeds back to the Children's hospital IMO.

Wait, I’ve been leaving Prizm for the kids and they DON’T want them?

The kids only want the stars like Leborn and the Prizm boxes/cellos unopened

Which is why we might as well leave none for the kids! Lol

Kids are generally more interested in pokemon cards....as they are typically more unisex and child friendly.

Siberian13 · 01-02-2020, 08:09 PM

Now the phrase "don't leave any for the kids" is useless

How much you sell the whole lot?
I collect refractors but if the price is good who knows.

You need to go down to that hospital and talk those kids about the hobby. Sure I wouldnt want certain things if life if they weren't explained to me. Maybe that's all the kids need?

Not sure just going to sell for whatever I can get to give the money to the kids. Yeah all I know is they were dropped off and none of the kids or parents wanted them. I’m sure if they were certain players maybe they would have liked them more but I don’t know what the ages of the kids are or anything.
