I HAVE THOUSANDS OF CARDS PRE-GRADED, SET ASIDE IN TOPLOADERS SEALED IN MANILA COIN ENVELOPES ALL READY TO SEND OFF FOR GRADING, I SPENT MANY HOURS WITH A MAGNIFIER PRE-GRADING THEM.

I EVEN HAVE AN SGC 100, WHICH IS EQUIVALENT TO A BGS PRISTINE, MANY 9.5,s AND GEM-MINTS FROM PSA, AND SOME FROM OTHER GRADERS.ALL OF MY CARDS ARE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION, I HAVE MOST OF THE NON-GRADED CARDS IN PENNY SLEEVES OR IN TOPLOADERS / SCREWDOWNS.IF I DIDNT SLEEVE THEM THEY WERE COMMONS ALL BOXED, I HAVE MOVED THEM TWICE OVER THE PAST 10+ YEARS, AND IT TOOK ME ALONE MANY DAYS TO MOVE IN MY STATION WAGON, ITS ALOT OF CARDS, I WILL TRY TO GIVE A MORE COMPLETE ESTIMATE OF THE NUMBER OF CARDS, IF I GET ANY SERIOUS INQUIRIES.AN EXAMPLE IN JUST 2 OF 100,s OF WHITE SHOE BOXES, I HAVE OVER 1500 2002 BOWMAN CARDS, MOSTLY ALL ROOKIES, THERE IS PLENTY OF CARDS TO SORT THROUGH, PICTURE A STORAGE UNIT STACKED WITH 100,s OF BOXES JUST LIKE THE 2002 BOWMAN ISSUE, I HAVE OVER 4000 2004 BOWMAN DRAFT PICKS, 2006 BOWMAN, BOWMAN CHROME, 2007 BOWMAN CHROME AND DRAFT PICKS, 10 SETS OF 1999 BOWMAN CHROME ( they have an average of 10-cards missing, ) BUT THEY ARE ALL IN ORDER AND MARKED ON EACH BOX WHICH ONES ARE MISSING. THE COLLECTION IS HUGE BY ANYONES STANDARDS, I HAVE WAY MORE THAN I HAVE SEEN IN MOST STORES THAT I HAVE VISITED OVER THE YEARS. ONCE INVENTORIED THERE WOULD BE QUITE A BUSINESS FOR SET BUILDERS ALONE, PLUS IT WOULDNT TAKE MUCH TO COMPLETE THE MANY SETS IN THIS COLLECTION. I JUST DONT HAVE THE TIME NOR THE ENERGY TO DO IT MYSELF. EVERYTIME I CONSIDERED IT, THE ENORMITY OF IT PREVENTED ME FROM STARTING. I DO HAVE THE BECKETT SOFTWARE TO ACCOMPLISH THIS SHOULD YOU NOT ALREADY HAVE SOFTWARE YOURSELF.

I BELIEVE MY ASKING PRICE IS VERY MODEST CONSIDERING THE AMOUNT OF CARDS YOU WILL RECEIVE. ONLY BY SEEING THIS COLLECTION IN PERSON, EXAMINING THE UNIT AND ITS CONTENTS WILL YOU BE ABLE TO GET A TRUE ESTIMATE AS TO ITS VALUE, I DONT BELIEVE I,M OVERSTATING WHAT I HAVE. OF COURSE IT,S CERTAINLY NOT ALL LOW NUMBERED ONE OF ONE AUTOGRAPHS,  AND GAME USED BUT ITS STILL VALUABLE BASED ON ITS SIZE, AND POTENTIAL $$$ GROWTH OVER THE YEARS. IN THE YEARS TO COME THIS COLLECTION WILL ONLY INCREASE IN VALUE. I FOCUSED ON PREMIUM ISSUES. I DONT HAVE ALOT OF JUNK 80,s CARDS,I FOCUSED ON BOWMAN AND BOWMAN CHROME FROM 1992-2008, THAT IS A LARGE % OF WHAT I HAVE.
