Let’s be honest, my big buying and collecting days are past. Now I am wanting to receive the best sale price available for the things I have. Football, Basketball, Baseball, Hockey, Soccer, UFC/MMA, Becket and PSA Monthlies, Art, Etc. I am not very keen on the local card shows, meaning Iowa. What I believe to be true is in areas of smaller population base, there just is not a sport card consumer like in much denser population. Iowa seems to have many dealers and too few consumers.

I am resigned to collecting solely Iowa Hawkeye players and memorabilia. If I do decide to return to shows, it will be a little further away. Cincinnati, Cleveland, Chicago, Indy, Etc. Looking forward to meeting new friends.
