Cards paid for our Wedding, Honeymoon and down payment on our first home back in 2010. In 2021, I sold most of my triplicate and duplicate vintage sets and star cards to purchase a lake house and hundreds of acres of farm ground. I put tons of vintage cards away in the early 2000s just after I graduated college. It was a great time to be a collector!!
Matthew: Well done!!! Great to hear! 👍👍👍
No doubt this was justification to you for all those who said "stop spending your money on cards... it's junk!" (usually parents, maybe the wife, and perhaps mates ribbing you for 'collecting junk'). Satisfying moment, I'll bet!
Wow. This video brought me to tears. Brother Ty, the video of the curator and now this. It's beyond cards man. Thank you so much for these videos. I actually was weeping watching that little girl saying "momma." I have a sister with downsyndrome and is non-verbal and that really melted much heart to hear this little girl and see this family. Please continue to make videos like these.
Ty, please let me know how I can support you. I'm praying for you brother and truly thank you for content like this. It truly illustrates that it's more than just cards. And to see the eternal weight of our lives. Praise God.
Love you brother and truly hope to meet you someday.
Thank you James -- we are so glad to hear how this video encouraged you. We appreciate you!
This is why I love this hobby! Hearing that beautiful little girl call her Mama broke me! ❤❤❤❤❤❤you have a follower for life! Much much love!
When the adopted kid gave that hug...mannn the feels...Sports cards made it possible, unbelievable episode!! Generosity of the store owner too!
beautiful story. didn't expect to get that emotional rush. perfect episode.
You guys are the best. I love the genuine people you showcase every episode. How does this show not trend more. Did I hear Mike say he made the playoffs in 91. I graduated in 91. I can’t be older then Mike.
That got me so emotional watching the mom pick up the little girl from China. Awesome family and card shop!
Second time now your show got a grown man in tears. What an amazing man and family the last stop had. Always True, Woody
Seeing his wife welcome their new daughter at airport was amazing.. i also come from a large family, im the oldest of 8. Im 34 now, my parents still have a few of my siblings at home in middle school/high school. Great story, great shop 👏🏻
Another brilliant episode... well done, lads (Ty, Mike, Matt, and anyone else who's involved)!
I like the way you don't assume that everyone knows the trading card lingo, and break it down for the masses. This will definitely appeal to all... not if, but WHEN, a station picks this great series up! 👍
Inspirational story by the card store owner, and he's got a wise head on his shoulders.
It takes a special family to adopt a child. Kudos to such a wholesome family.
Brent is connected. Wise prospecting in football. The Lord has blessed him and his family immensely. Did you get any tips on the next big sports hero to collect?
Thank you Ken. God has blessed us beyond measure. And to answer your question, I think Brock Purdy has fallen into the perfect spot with the Niners and if he can stay healthy may see a huge rise in value. Just my humble opinion.
@@familysportscollectibles7957 Brent, thanks for the insight. I wonder if I’m too late to the party 😂
You guys are the best hands down no question!! Love every episode!!
i had every single one of those becketts.. i remember that kirby pucket and jim abbot one like ti was yesterday.. i must have looked through those things 1000x's as a kid, riding bikes to the gas station to get the beckett and a pack of cards off the counter.
I can't stop binge watching this program. I learn something new each and every episode. Most importantly, I respect the way you treat the families and individuals that you are negotiating with. Awesome stuff!
@@CHASINGCARDBOARD It's pretty hard to pick just 1. I really enjoyed the Rollie Fingers episode and the episode where the seller had a crazy collection of sealed wax with case after case. I couldn't believe his restraint.
This show is awesome! First I’ve seen it. Just getting back into collecting cards, haven’t been collecting since I was a young kid.
Thank you so much! We have 30 other amazing episodes, sit back and enjoy! :-)
Ok… did I just cry In a Baseball Card show?? Amazing story!!
Came here to say this. I’m not crying. I’m just forcing tears to sell for more card money. 😥
Freaking fantastic episode guys. That dude seemed like an authentically nice human being.
Great episode. Many of today's collectors should watch this. Card collecting with the right financial literacy can pay dividends. Too many people sacrifice their lives outside of cardboard just for a chase. They have the most beautiful cards, but a dysfunctional personal life outside of the hobby.
What an awesome family. That guy is winning in life so much. Kudos to him!!
this episode hit me all in the feels! I live in Brenham and my brother is Truth BBQs right hand man and runs their Houston location.
This guy & his wife are literally my heroes🤍🤍🙏🏼🙏🏼
Love seeing you guys around my parts of Texas. Never been to Cardboard Heroes, pass by it on the way to the Conroe show (amazing show).. going to have to stop in now!
Absolutely amazing content. You guys catch the heart of this hobby. Love this!!!
I share a love of baseball cards and Chick-fil-A with Mike 😂 and a love of this show! Another great episode guys!
Tremendous ep guys. Man Brent is just winning at life! Loved his story
Hey guys. Love the show, great channel. Keep up the great work and fun...
His wife was so happy :) Good stuff
I DO have some ranch projects I would like to fund honey! Great ideas here! Headed to the Beast now...
Stellar shop owners and cards 🙏🏼
Cardboard Hero's is a great shop! I bought a Wade Boggs auto from them that I was trying to get for sometime at a very affordable price. Wonderful group of guys thanks for putting them on your show!
Thank you for inspiring me to collect like I did when I was younger and seriously into collecting now I can get some money doing it
Another great episode! Love hearing the stories attached to the cards.
Awesome fellas. I did a little of the cardboard to life as well and bought my first house with card money and I hope to pay off our 2nd house with cards.
He also said his ice cream tasted so fresh like it just “came out of the oven!” Lol
Im sorry but this video needs to be SO MUCH LONGER! WOW that guy is a genius and I need some advice from him ASAP! hahah
Ty after seeing it was a 1of1 and Brent said "you're giving it to your son right" oh totally!..."maybe I will actually hold onto this for myself" HAHAHA
Ha! Right! Ty's son flipped out when he got the card. Was pretty cool.
That Mahomes die cut select black 1/1. Ending Thursday 9/21 on PWCC
This is a video that needs the double thumbs up button, like on Netflix. 👍👍
This my new favorite channel!! I just recently ordered my 1st 2 hobby boxes.. 23' select basketball and 23' mosiac football. Is it better to sale a good card raw or graded?? I see a lot of those being sold raw. Wouldn't getting it graded be more valueable?
Glad your enjoying the channel!
You question… you have to factor in the costs of grading and the shipping to and from.
Sometimes getting a card graded to make to card explode in price, and lame times the costs of grading cost more than the card. Do your research and see if the card is desired and have good comps. Graded vs raw.
Dang sucks that I missed you guys there. I from around those parts near Brenham Texas area. I’m also a collector as well. I enjoy watching y’all’s videos. Yooo y’all passed thru my little town. That’s so cool. Y’all should of tried the bbq there city market bbq. Oh by the way my son is also into cards. I will be taking him to card shows as well once he gets a little older. This is why I love collecting and selling sports cards.
Blue bell, hope you don't get sick...lol
Awesome to see that what appears to be a really good dude had all those amazing cards and was able to be the one to profit off of them. Not to say anyone else shouldn’t but good to see.
When are you guys coming to Albany, New York. Lots of card shows and places here.
Not sure! Heading to east coast later this month, but not making it up that far.
Have collection looking for big shed small garage!
All sports non sports. 80- present!
3500-who no’s how much?
Hey I love following you channel! Just wanted to let you know that I followed your code for smooth sleeves and I think they may have gone under or something. I ordered sleeves and the company isn’t responding and emails are getting kicked back. I’m not worried about the $20 but since you had them on your site wanted to let you know. (Also not at all blaming you in the least) looking forward to future card videos!:) Matthew
The cat looked like he was about to take a dump right in the walkway. Anyone else catch that.
👍❤️
This isn’t card related. But did you ever happen to play flag football with a Hmong team in Kansas named Aftermath? If not my bad mistaken you for someone else. But great quality!
He invests 50 percent back into a hobby that’s paid for everything he has
So he's 50 years old
They bought that entire 1966 binder of cards for 20 dollars.? Unbelievable. Must have been 300 cards.
Keep us posted on how you build
off that 1966 purchase...condition looked pretty good. Couldn't pass on the price
@BaseballCollector nice of you not to trash them on the internet. Still some potential to build a low grade set and resell. Availability of ANY cards in those years is an issue. Ideally you would hope at least to find cards with decent eye appeal though. Not always easy to spot creases right away either. I had an expensive and time consuming search building a nice set of 1979 Topps Baseball years back. Bought some PSA 8s and made sure all the others were as good or better. Forgot about investment return very early in the chase!!!
Die cut black 1/1…2 of them? Does that mean it’s a 1/2? That’s what honestly makes me stay away from ultra modern.
Only 1 black premier level 1/1 and it’s this die cut. There aren’t any other premieres. There is one field level 1/1 and it looks totally different. Those are the only two black 1/1 Mahomes in the whole product hence the two black 1/1s Ty mentioned
I was a little confused by the way he presented that statement too and I own the card. 😂
@@familysportscollectibles7957 I am much more of a vintage collector in comics and cards, but honestly if you know something about something like you and Ty…there are some great ultra moderns obviously.
Select is different...there are 3 tiers of cards...the 0-99, 100-199, 200-299's.... they are the different "levels" Brent mentioned. Each level gets a little more short-printed.. Usually top rookies have a card within each level... So within Select, a RC will have a card within each tier. But in 2017, Mahomes only had a RC within 2 of the tiers.... meaning he only had two of the Black 1/1's instead of the normal 3.
this is how dumb current card bois are...here we have a QB who never won a superbowl (Jaylen hurts) selling for more than peyton manning's best rc NUTS but good on the person who sold it to the dummy
Don't do the stories of the cardboard junkies who lose it all on cards, tens of thousands of debt, lives and families destroyed, because of this hype, not to mention ruin a hobby I love...smh,
You are welcome to go check out our other episodes...we cover all ends of the spectrum.
Thank you guys for visiting our shop and highlighting our story. It was an honor having you and keep up the amazing work. You really are a bright light in our hobby.
Our pleasure! Love the shop! And the owners!
Fantastic job finding those profitable cards and turning them into something so special. Who recognized the Jalen Hurts upside?
The way Jalen handled himself after getting benched in the National Championship really impressed me. He stood out as a man of character. Then I learned about his leadership and work ethic and I was sold. Obviously talent is very important, but so much of a QBs success is determined by intangibles like leadership, work ethic and the talent surrounding him. Jalen had the “it factor” to me.
Great video. Was that the Hurts true NT RPA shield 1/1 I saw that just got glanced over (ha). Wow. Thanks for sharing your story.
