Yeah you'll see that alot at shows near hometown teams and their cards.
I'm sure you'd find, say, Texas cards cheap.

Different mall, but probably mostly the same dealers. It's usually the same guys set up at all the mall shows in the area. To the OP, how did you find out about the show? I didn't see it listed on the Beckett show calendar.

Not usually.

Especially at the smaller shows around here, it's mostly older guys who price AT beckett, and then "take a bit off" for you.

No, I meant with him being in PA, the Pirates, Phillies cards will more then likely be hard to get bargains on being HOMETOWN teams.
I was just using TX as an example. I'm sure he could find a bargain Hamilton auto compared to a Taillon. :ugeek:

Pittsburgh has a lot of "old school" guys who think cards should still for the same prices they did in 1998. I had one guy quote me a price of $30 on a Nate McLouth ref auto because he said it booked at $100. The card was selling for $4-5 dlvd on ebay at the time.

I miss Mall card shows. The last guy that ran mall shows here passed away about 5 years ago and there hasn't been any since then :(
