I jumped into the selling of cards online. So, I ask you #Mantel, what are two things I need to know about selling online? Any thing you wish you knew before you started? And finally, how’s it going?

It’s been filed back to the personal collection.

I bought a lot of cards. It’s at that point of, “Oh, crap. I need to sell some.” But what about all of the base? I’m coming up with something that I think will be beneficial for both me and kids in the community. I don’t want to jinx it, but I could have a way to claim the base on my taxes. I’m speaking with a CPA to ensure everything is above board. If I get it launched, I’ll share. Until then, if you need one of the 17 copies of each base card I have, holler. We can work something out.

I am super excited. My first two cards I’ve sent off to be graded are on their way back! I pulled the Drake Maye just before the Super Bowl and the Timmy was in a binder since 1998. I was really hoping for a 10 for the Duncan, but, I thought it might have a small issue on the back. At first glance, it looks like a long dent, but it’s the inside border on the foil you see on the front. I wondered if that would hurt it. Idk the true reason, but I’m happy with the results.

I haven’t been on TikTok long, or have I joined any breaks on TikTok. It always seems like they’re way too expensive. I was watching a unique-to-me random team auction, made a few bids, won one at $18 and got the Bills. Good potential, right? Got a second at $15, won Carolina. Okay. I was done. Watching the break and WHAMMY. We saw a Downtown, and I kind of felt it. He announced, “It’s the Bills.” It was coming to me. Was it Josh Allen?!

Holy Crap. I started to think about driving it to PSA.

Then I heard the Price is Right sound when you lose, “Whomp whomp de domp, uhhhhhhhhg.” It wasn’t, but it was Thurman Thomas. I mean, yes, a little bit of a letdown not seeing Josh Allen, but it’s cool that it’s Thurman Thomas. I hit a Downtown! 💪

And if you were wondering, no, I didn’t shake. 😂
