It snowed last night, covering the driveway in a lump of snow, and making it incredibly cold. Yet that wasn't enough to keep me from driving out to the local mall for a card show today. I've been going to considerably less of these lately, but whenever I do go, I make sure to fill a brown bag up with scoured commons and cool stuff, derived from 10 cent bins. Which I accomplished today, from a few different dealers.

So yeah, that was a pretty nice show.
Nice haul. Which mall show? As I'm also in New Jersey (and not laughing), and I would like to hit some places out of my immediate area, broaden the horizons as it were.
ReplyDeleteThe one I went to today was at the Moorestown Mall, and that one, as well as the Voorhees Town Center, are the two close to me that generally have recurring card shows.
DeleteSouth Jersey right? What counties?
ReplyDeleteBurlington County and Camden County, respectively. Both about 20 to 30 minutes outside of Philly.
ReplyDeleteLove 10¢ bins... nice finds. My favorites: 1988 Topps Jerry Rice, 1983 Topps Tom Seaver, 1982 Topps Dave Winfield, & the 2000 Topps Traded Barry Zito.
