Am I the only one that hears the “Wild thing” song whenever that beeping plays? Incredible pickups! Not sure where to even start! Love those calbee Japanese cards. All of the autos are just nuts. The yellow plaque are beauty’s! The Paige, Jeter, and mantle cards 😳! Can’t wait for today!
The ‘53 Mantle is 🔥! Love the Paige as well. I picked up a ‘49 Paige at last year’s National when I couldn’t find a T206 Cobb or ‘52 Mathews in my price range. I wish I could make the National this year. I’ll be living vicariously through your videos.
At least they were exposed. I'm sure this video will end up with a lot of eyeballs on it. It still sucks for the buyer, but their reputation will take a well-deserved hit for sure.
So awesome guys. The mantle is great. I just purchased a beautiful 54 Williams SGC 1. Centered, great color, and decent corners. The major flaw is on the surface, small indents in the orange. Looks like someone was writing on paper with the card underneath. Very hard to see though. Love the videos. Makes me feel I’m there with you fellas. Thanks for sharing the journey with the rest of us!
Great story Toby! COngrats on a 54 Ted Williams. I love vintage cards. really the condition is subjective on them so i dont mind condition too much at all when I pick up an old card of the greats. Have a good one!!!
Mike, when I had the privilege of seeing your 1953 Topps Mantle in person, I did not notice even a hint of a paper crease! Such a sweet card for the grade! 😊
Heck of a day one, Mike! Great autos, nice big boys, and a japanese star! Thanks for bringing us along for the ride! Can’t wait to see what else you get this week.
Wow, the color on the Paige is so amazing. Hopefully, those dealers not willing to make deals will learn their lesson. There are a lot of people that don’t understand collecting. Plenty of others that do that are willing to sell cardboard. Great finds for the autograph collection! Have fun!
Dude....first off, why did no one stop Eric from the backpack.... hahaha. Secondly, dudeeee epic deals and picnic ups. Very nice satch!!!!! P.s. go get some batteries for that carbon monoxide monitor....
That was so much fun at the get together,Great to meet you at the show and the get together. Finished mt Topps 1956 set,last card was the Duke Snider,had a lot of help with that set.
Mike, great pickups but especially that '49 Paige - it's refreshing to hear someone talk about good color and image over and above centering only - and especially t/b centering - which to my mind's eye is less egregious if off. I think that is a fantastic purchase and a good way to trade off what is really important in a card for price likely v. what a better centered card probably would have cost you. Bravo!
What a great day for you. Checking off the list quick. Love the Paige also the surprise Jeter. Can tell you are super happy with your buys . Always loved going back to the hotel and the pleasure of going through your pickups . Will have to plan to go next year to Chicago, even though I will be traveling from Northern Virginia rather than Colorado.
Stellar pick ups Mike! Very nice Satchel Paige! Can't believe the attitude of that dealer. If your setting up at a show you have to expect that people will offer you less than sticker. At least be gracious in your decline of the offer.
Did you say the booth is $5000! Wow! Isn't that high? I was thinking $500 or 1000. It's a repack back pack! Loathe all repacks! Are you hosting anything tomorrow (Thurs) Night. Great cards too. Monsters
Repacks are a huge scam. Its a dump off of crap onto YOU. The sucker buying a mystery box. I hope it wasn't really 5k a table maybe that's with travel expenses
Thanks for the post - couldn’t attend this year so living vicariously! Love that booth with the Japanese cards - have never bought any but always stop by and look. Funny,I actually have a Morandini jersey at one time he was my favorite Cub. Sweet Olivia 2nd Yr, and Ashburn. The ‘53 Mantle is a huge card and yours looks great for the grade and better than many a bit higher.
Congrats on the pickups! I bought a 53 Mantle today as well, PSA 2 with absolutely perfect centering for $3500, i felt good about that. Also was able to find more 1888 Goodwin Champions & T206’s…. All in all great day. Ill be walking around tomorrow just to look (no more buying). A little overwhelming but def worth it!!
Wow. 1 day for me..33% thru. And nothing. Fantastic five star grabs. They were /24 cuz I have one of each :) Great Murray snag. They’re generally 150-200. (Before the madness).
Great pickups Mike! Since your nearly done buying stuff maybe you can help me decide what cards to spend my money on. Saw a lot of cards I’d like to pick up, but they were in much higher grades than I can afford or want to pay. So I’ll probably need to switch my focus to other vintage cards.
Great meeting you today Mike! Glad I got to see a sneak peek of your two biggest pickups! Hope to run into you at the show tomorrow again and will definitely see you at the meetup
It was very nice meeting you at the Sheraton at the You tube party .Your right when you spend 5,000 for a table plus a Hotel you want to make money? but dealers want to sell cards too? nice 1964 Tony Oliva , 2nd rookie like Dale Murphy and Ron Cey some have more than one rookie? nice Richie Ashburn , 2001 greats of the game Eddie Murray, the 53 Mantle a 1.50 card must have a few creases in it? nice 1949 Bowman of Paige.
Humbly just trotting out the Mick was perfect. An awesome 1.5. And Satch for the closer...wow. Not to mention the Jeter auto and the other autos. And good to hear about the solid turnout for Day 1.
That backpack thing was pretty funny I've never seen that form of mystery pack before. Taking advantage of the Atlantic City gambling vibes, savy sellers! haha That 53 Mantle looks so nice! I've grown to love hunting for beautiful eye appeal psa 1 range stuff for big vintage cards like that. It almost feels like you're getting away with something when you buy a psa 1 or 1.5 that looks better than cards that sell for 4x as much. Congrats on the epic day 1 pickups.
Learned that name from a Beastie Boys song a long time ago. Still have yet to buy one. Like the 73 image as well. Nice 1.5 Mantle, I have a 2.5 and some low grade cards centered like that look better then a lot of 3 to 5 grades. One of my favorite Mantle cards.
Wow! Some great pick ups n the Mantle! I picked up recently a Japanese player card of the ONLY player to get 3000 hits in the Japanese league! Look it up. On my way Friday! Hope you guys get some sleep.
Oh sweet. I've wanted to get a vintage one. I just have some el bencos and som e dude named Ichiro. Yeah, I've dealt with dillweed dealers. Those guys are the most desperate.
Great video... I've never been to anything like this. How does it work, for example I'm looking for PSA7 1960 Topps Baseball HOF players. Do you just look booth to booth until you find what you want? These shows are huge.
I went to a card show last year. Dealer had a 1950 Bowman football card priced at $100, I offered $75. He took it out of the card saver and bent it in half right in front of me and said sure it’s yours for $75. I was shocked, it made me so mad that he would destroy an awesome vintage card rather than negotiate with me on the price. Never seen such ridiculous behavior before in my life. Wonder if it was the same guy who was rude to you all. Don’t understand how people like that stay in business.
Im curious, psa is at 65 million on grading number, but i see your paige is serial numbered in the 90 million, ive seen a few cards with those higher serisl numbers, do you know why? Or does psa not always grade in sequential order
Sweet pickups Mike! Always love going back and watching the old national videos.
You must have been really bored Mike.
Am I the only one that hears the “Wild thing” song whenever that beeping plays? Incredible pickups! Not sure where to even start! Love those calbee Japanese cards. All of the autos are just nuts. The yellow plaque are beauty’s! The Paige, Jeter, and mantle cards 😳! Can’t wait for today!
You're the only one.
That Mantle is STUNNING, especially for a 1.5! Great pick ups all around!
Man we could watch your videos all day, going back watching videos very cool cards. Got us looking into the five star now. Great stuff!
Thanks RJ. Five Star autos are cool.
High Quality Mike ... well done... now go take down some Texas Hold'em pots bud....pay for the whole damn trip!
The ‘53 Mantle is 🔥! Love the Paige as well. I picked up a ‘49 Paige at last year’s National when I couldn’t find a T206 Cobb or ‘52 Mathews in my price range. I wish I could make the National this year. I’ll be living vicariously through your videos.
Great meeting you today. Glad you liked the Oh card. Congrats on the Mantle and Paige pickups.
Same to you. Thanks for the deal on the Oh card.
Cool to re-live day #1 through this video- my favorite is that ‘53T Mantle!
Absolutely KILLED it at the end! Wow! Congratulations brother! Hopefully you have a blast brother.
You had yourself one hell of a day sir! So many great cards, but the Paige is amazing! Appreciate the sights, sounds, and people of the national.
You bet. Glad you are enjoying it
Incredible day. Wow!! Im living thru videos like this all week! Will miss seeing you guys this year!
Love the Pujols and Griffey! Right up my alley
“Let that just sit there for a second.” 🤣. Great Mantle. Lots of great pickups.
Christian Laetner auto for 200 bucks? What a joke.
Agree. That was harsh
At least they were exposed. I'm sure this video will end up with a lot of eyeballs on it. It still sucks for the buyer, but their reputation will take a well-deserved hit for sure.
Love the 53. So awesome! My favorite mantle ever. That satchel is really cool too. Color and registration looks great on it.
So awesome guys. The mantle is great. I just purchased a beautiful 54 Williams SGC 1. Centered, great color, and decent corners. The major flaw is on the surface, small indents in the orange. Looks like someone was writing on paper with the card underneath. Very hard to see though. Love the videos. Makes me feel I’m there with you fellas.

Thanks Jay. I did a video every day of the show so enjoy
Hi Mike. Just checking out earlier video's. Wow what a Haul, Mantle and Paige are awesome.
I really like the Batman and Robin thing you too got going...lol. It's great to find supportive friends. Keep up the great work and 'keep collecting'.
Beautiful pick-ups. Paige and Mantle are stunning 😍
Thanks Dean
Heck of a day one, Mike! Great autos, nice big boys, and a japanese star! Thanks for bringing us along for the ride! Can’t wait to see what else you get this week.

Amazing Mantle and Paige! Looks like you guys had a blast on day 1! Hope the rest of the show is just as great for you guys!
Dude....first off, why did no one stop Eric from the backpack.... hahaha. Secondly, dudeeee epic deals and picnic ups. Very nice satch!!!!!
P.s. go get some batteries for that carbon monoxide monitor....
That was so much fun at the get together,Great to meet you at the show and the get together.
Finished mt Topps 1956 set,last card was the Duke Snider,had a lot of help with that set.

Wow! That’s a great haul for a year, let alone a day!!! Nice pickups!!
Great pickups. That Mantle is amazing.
Mike, great pickups but especially that '49 Paige - it's refreshing to hear someone talk about good color and image over and above centering only - and especially t/b centering - which to my mind's eye is less egregious if off. I think that is a fantastic purchase and a good way to trade off what is really important in a card for price likely v. what a better centered card probably would have cost you. Bravo!
Wow Mike awesome pickups love the Paige rookie and of course the 53 Mantle, very cool to have a vintage Oh card
Good Lord! Tons of great pickups, no wonder you needed to get some found money!!!
You got that right!
Great pickups!
Wow. Great pick ups. Got what you wanted out of the way on day 1. Awesome!

Peer pressure is real LoL
What a great day for you. Checking off the list quick. Love the Paige also the surprise Jeter. Can tell you are super happy with your buys .

Wow! Lots of great cards!! Griffey and Pujols auto are 🔥
Man, thanks for bringing us a long for a inside look..
Stellar pick ups Mike!
Very nice Satchel Paige!
Can't believe the attitude of that dealer.
If your setting up at a show you have to expect that people will offer you less than sticker.
At least be gracious in your decline of the offer.
Love the Jeter inscribed SP Auto, solid pickup!
Love the Mantle and the Paige. Nice pickups. Congrats!
Nice pickups! Awesome you ran into two of my favorite UA-camrs in Eric and Skaght
Did you say the booth is $5000! Wow! Isn't that high? I was thinking $500 or 1000.
It's a repack back pack! Loathe all repacks!
Are you hosting anything tomorrow (Thurs) Night.

That Mantle is AWSOME !!!
I always wonder how Sadaharu Oh would have done in the MLB.
That 53 Mantle is lethal. WOW.
Great pickups! Thanks for sharing. I’m not there this year so have to live through everyone else.
Congrats on the pickups! I bought a 53 Mantle today as well, PSA 2 with absolutely perfect centering for $3500, i felt good about that. Also was able to find more 1888 Goodwin Champions & T206’s…. All in all great day. Ill be walking around tomorrow just to look (no more buying). A little overwhelming but def worth it!!
Wow. 1 day for me..33% thru. And nothing.
Fantastic five star grabs. They were /24 cuz I have one of each :)
Great Murray snag. They’re generally 150-200. (Before the madness).
Wow you were busy on Day 1 lol. Lovely pickups for the collection.
Congrats!!!
Thanks
I love how you found some great deals, good stuff
Nice pick ups, that Satchel Paige is sharp
Thanks. I appreciate it
Great pickups Mike! Since your nearly done buying stuff maybe you can help me decide what cards to spend my money on. Saw a lot of cards I’d like to pick up, but they were in much higher grades than I can afford or want to pay. So I’ll probably need to switch my focus to other vintage cards.
The 53 mantle is a beautiful card in any condition. I’m not a yankee fan but it is a dream of mine to own one in any condition
It is an all-time great card for sure.
Love that ‘53 Mantle….his best card in my opinion!
Great stuff Mike! That Oh card is amazing! Hope to get a chance to say hi tomorrow
congrats on the pick ups!
So cool. Wish i was there
Wow, Mike. Go big or go home! 😎
Awesome video, as usual!!
Great meeting you today Mike! Glad I got to see a sneak peek of your two biggest pickups! Hope to run into you at the show tomorrow again and will definitely see you at the meetup
Also I don’t know if I even said it to you or not, but congrats on these great pickups. You absolutely crushed it!
Thanks. Great meeting you as well
It was very nice meeting you at the Sheraton at the You tube party .Your right when you spend 5,000 for a table plus a Hotel you want to make money? but dealers want to sell cards too?
nice 1964 Tony Oliva , 2nd rookie like Dale Murphy and Ron Cey some have more than one rookie? nice Richie Ashburn , 2001 greats of the game
Eddie Murray, the 53 Mantle a 1.50 card must have a few creases in it?
nice 1949 Bowman of Paige.
Awesome content! I wish I was there with y’all! Great pick ups!
New Subscriber... Nice pick ups... Love the Albert P auto... and the Mantle.. SWEET!
Thanks. I appreciate it. Welcome to the channel
Humbly just trotting out the Mick was perfect. An awesome 1.5. And Satch for the closer...wow. Not to mention the Jeter auto and the other autos. And good to hear about the solid turnout for Day 1.
Thanks Frank auto in a slab is a beauty. Nice grab
Wow!!! Just wow!!! 🔥
Congrats, the cards look great.
That backpack thing was pretty funny I've never seen that form of mystery pack before. Taking advantage of the Atlantic City gambling vibes, savy sellers! haha
That 53 Mantle looks so nice! I've grown to love hunting for beautiful eye appeal psa 1 range stuff for big vintage cards like that. It almost feels like you're getting away with something when you buy a psa 1 or 1.5 that looks better than cards that sell for 4x as much. Congrats on the epic day 1 pickups.
Learned that name from a Beastie Boys song a long time ago. Still have yet to buy one. Like the 73 image as well. Nice 1.5 Mantle, I have a 2.5 and some low grade cards centered like that look better then a lot of 3 to 5 grades. One of my favorite Mantle cards.
Last 2 cards. 🤯
Awesome pickups!!!
Geez you got some huge cards today.
Another awesome video
Apparently that dealer spent 5k to insult people.. haha
Welcome to the Northeast!
I sure hope it didnt cost 5k for a table. Did it really? Or was that with travel expenses included?
@@armourcoin 🤣. True true … northeast indeed
That back pack grab was a losing proposition. 53 Mantle is a blazer; what was price??
That’s a good feeling isn’t it
It is Dave. Thanks for the encouragement
Great haul!
Wow! Some great pick ups n the Mantle! I picked up recently a Japanese player card of the ONLY player to get 3000 hits in the Japanese league! Look it up. On my way Friday! Hope you guys get some sleep.
What was price for auto Jeter sp??
Great pickups!! For day 1 I don’t see how you can top that lol
Really cool pickups today. How you can sleep with that noise. 53 mantle!!
Oh sweet. I've wanted to get a vintage one. I just have some el bencos and som e dude named Ichiro. Yeah, I've dealt with dillweed dealers. Those guys are the most desperate.
How is the parking? I am driving from Mo and staying about an hour away........worried about parking situation on Friday and Saturday
Parking is rough
Any suggestions? I was going to try and show up early and park in the Convention Parking Garage@@ryanwinters8382
You didn’t buy the Jones and Thomas plaque autos. You stole them. Great deals. 😳👌
Sweet Cards !!!
Hope you guys are having a great time
Great video... I've never been to anything like this. How does it work, for example I'm looking for PSA7 1960 Topps Baseball HOF players. Do you just look booth to booth until you find what you want? These shows are huge.

Some people are just jerks I guess
Awesome!
Nice “beep’n” video :)
Thanks. I appreciate it.
When are you gonna get the 52 mantle ? Mike
Not anytime soon. I like being married. Lol
Im curious, psa is at 65 million on grading number, but i see your paige is serial numbered in the 90 million, ive seen a few cards with those higher serisl numbers, do you know why? Or does psa not always grade in sequential order
I honestly don't know. Good question.
I have graded 10,000 cards for SGC I have graded cards from 1882 I have graded Satchels that sold through Heritage Auctions for $400,000,plus
I would imagine that you've heard Jabs got one at the National for 50k
