3 weeks away. Anyone bringing anything to sell or get graded?

I’ve got a sharp looking 2011 Topps Update Mike Trout that would look even better in a BGS 10 holder.

Not particularly looking to sell. Might bring my raw 97 finest embossed refractor to get graded

I've never been and I don't know the area. I'd be traveling from NC and I can't seem to find reasonable airfare. I guess I could drive 8 hours? Ugh, but might not have any other options.

What's the best day to be there to get to stuff before it gets picked over? Are there really many tables set up on Wednesday when their hours are only 4-8pm? Is everyone pretty well set up Thursday or not until Friday or even Saturday?

Looks like a lot of hotels do shuttles to the I-X Center or whatever it's called.

Hey, looks like the Indians are in town vs the Angels!

 

[cgilmo]

Look me up. I’ll be there all week.

Any advice on the best time to go for picking through singles?

I think that there is so much inventory as long as you get there before the weekend is out its all pretty much a crap shoot. Good stuff can be found on Saturday just as easily as the Wednesday vip preview. If digging through boxes is your thing you def wanna be there for the Wednesday night thing.

Did a FCB meetup get scheduled? Anyone going to the Indians games against the Angels?

Anyone have room for another in their airbnb or want to share a hotel room? Sorry, no snorers

Haven't bee to a National since 2006 would love to go again. Instead been spending the summer traveling all over FL with my 16 yr old doing a bunch of PG tournaments.

I just filled the one spot I had a couple of days ago. Damn.

Let’s use this post to coordinate events. I’m going to be representing 3 things so my time is going to be pretty scattered.

I’m going to the trade night at the Middleburg Community Center on Thursday night, and I’ll be at the Indians/Angels game on Saturday night.

I’m down for a meetup. I’ll be in town early Wednesday afternoon for the VIP party and all that BS.

PM me for my phone number so we can do a group text.

If somebody backs out, feel free to try to ping me here. Then again, I still don't know what nights I'll be there yet.

Kinda bummed that I won't be able to make it this year. Looks like Chicago 2019 will be my first National...(Chicago is better anyway )

Guys, you don’t wanna miss that blowout $100 blind box if you are going to the national.

Honestly, I can't even tell what they are saying is in there LOL An voucher for an in-person auto with one of the signers there and a sealed box of cards that might be something even cooler?

When I try to buy it's trying to charge shipping - is that right for an in-person pickup?

 

[cgilmo]

Yeah, i messaged them to refund the shipping. It’s blind box. It could contain all of those things. It could be a case of bowman. It could be anything really. I just know they are always loaded.

Bought. Thanks for the heads up, I would never have seen this otherwise.
