Lots of NC collectors on here. You might have to wait a while, but someone should be able to offer some insight. Just try to get an idea of prices for what you are looking for before you go.

There's a card show here in Raleigh this weekend (Friday-Sunday) so maybe make that trip instead.
It's at the state fairgrounds, $5 entry...and I would have to imagine it's a lot better than a card shop I've never heard of. (Not saying much though as I have only lived here for just over a year.)

I haven't been since 2005ish, but last time I was there they had a good modern pack selection, a decent amount of memorabilia, and prices I was willing to pay (don't remember how great they were, but I bought from them whenever I was in town to see my folks).

Thanks for the heads up guys. I just saw that. 170 Tables? Sounds pretty significant. I'll have to show up early tomorrow. Anyone else going? Or anyone go today who could tell me how it was?

I was there last year. Seem like a lot of older (02 UD PP, 03 Topps chrome) wax. I bought a box of 05' Rookie Cup and a Brian Jordan Jersey card, lol. The guy running it searched ebay and gave me an ebay price for the box. No prospects and high on the singles prices. Go to the show!

I went to the show this morning and will probably go again.
Plenty of decent deals if you're willing to look around, and depending on your collecting needs.
Personally, I didn't pick up a single card today...just picked up some autographs for a few custom cards, including a DiMaggio signature which I'm really happy with.
That said...definitely go to the show instead.

I'm a terrible judge at that...although I felt that it was the best Raleigh show I have seen since I moved here just over a year ago. Overall it was a nice mix of things with nothing taking up the majority of tables.xcantgobackx said:
Not a ton of wax, but at least two well stocked dealers.

Cool, thanks again. I'm almost definitely gonna show up tomorrow. Say hi if you see a short, stocky, ugly guy with a shaved head, probably wearing a tshirt of some punk band.
