I'm getting material this morning and the counter guy asked if I went black friday shopping for my impending child. I said all my black friday shopping was online and was baseball cards. That was a mistake....
Guy: "BRO! You gotta check out my collection!"
Me: Oh yeah? You collect cards?
Guy: I use to, I still have all the seasons sealed
*Uh oh, I gotta a bad feeling about this*
Me: Oh cool, like 80's and 90's sets?
Guy: Yeah man, I got like Bo Jackson rookie cards
Me: Yeah bro, that stuff isn't so hot anymore
I go on to explain collecting has changed and he's got stuff that not many people will want. I show him some eBay auctions and his expression went from excitement to disappointment. I'm sure everyone has had these run in's but this is my first in a while.
