Huge Collection Purchase | 500,000+ cards (1999-2008)

[swerve]

Wow, not sure what you paid but definitely the type of collection we all dream of purchasing.

[adam711]

That is insane, congrats!! My advice would be don't rush it. Take 2-3 months to go through boxes without completely burning yourself out while organizing the cards into different categories (grading review pile, low, mid, high end, etc.). Assuming you got this at a great price you should do VERY well in the long run. If it's taking up too much space in garage maybe rent a self storage unit until you can dwindle it down.

If you find any low #'d E'twaun Moore (he was on the Magic/Celtics around those years) please message me. If fact let me know of ANY E'twaun Moore cards you find.

Good luck!

Edit: OP, how many private messages have you received w/ offers to take "whatever Lebrons you find" off your hands for basically nothing?

I believe this was just posted to show off, not to sell to the blowout crowd!! But still a nice collection pickup to showoff

Right. It is not in the BST thread.

Because this never happens, where people immediately fill the OP of one of these thread's inboxes looking for deals or shady assistance to help. It's just standard operating procedure for any message board, not just blowout. This one has actually been pretty tame for the hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars in cards he's showing in this bubble market.

I’d show that type of collection if I bought it too...

If you get a storage unit, make sure you put the monster boxes into tubs so it's not obvious what you're carrying. And make sure the unit is climate controlled. You also probably want to get a Collectibles Insurance policy in case of fire/theft/etc.

Congrats on the purchase.

As others have said - these types of untouched collections don't pop up often.

Strange that it was sold as a collection which seems like the worst way possible to liquidate a collection like this. And even stranger that the first guy to have a crack at it passed on it.

[n1nesports]

Man that looks like so much damn fun, lord that would be a dream come true lol.
If I lived down there I'd definitely offer some help but sadly I don't, I'm in Toronto!

I bet the first buyer sold it for the same or more than what he paid so the vintage was free at worst. Then he was overwhelmed and having the chance to move it all at once was inviting.

You’re going to sort and document the cards right?

[eastbayak]

What a find! Congratulations, OP!

Yes. Exactly. Oh I also asked if he has his own hand truck and if there's a gate code to his community.

I like to see showoffs. Sorting takes a long time, I got tired sorting through 2 of those boxes in just 2 days and have not re-started. Amazing stuff you will find that was junk turn to gold.

[lyyca]

Woah! How much do you want for all the Stephen Curry Rookies?

So you’re hand-delivering to the grading company as well? You are so kind!

[NoleinJax]

Nice haul OP. Which state? I can't be only one wondering what OP paid.

[Kobe101]

Awesome stuff man! By the looks of it you are going to do well! I would take your time and make the most of it!!

That looks like a dream find! I am so jealous!

Good luck man!

[HoodaBest2k20]

I don’t want to infringe on any privacy but I’d also love to know what OP paid because potentially this could be one of the best purchases of all time.

OP is probably overwhelmed, we probably won't hear from him again after all the messages and replies he's gotten in a day's time.

Yeah I kinda think the same. I'd love a shot at any potential rare Nuggets stuff, but i'm not going to contribute to flooding the dude's inbox (which you know is happening, lol).

OP, once/if you're ready to sell let us know. Just with those initial pictures alone you know probably half of the blowout community is salavating at the thought of potentially aquiring some rare PC items. Who the hell even knows what could be lurking in those boxes..

[SlickRick]

Only did 10 second math, but probably like 10k-20k just in the few pics shown?
